Despite the blizzard of Chinese PR, CCP officals cannot snow potential viewers and have them forget all the damage that nation has done in the past two years.This past week has been filled with karmic news (CNN’s Jeff Zucker resigning, Whoopi Goldberg’s suspension, Meta/Facebook shares plummeting).It’s as if someone baked a schadenfreude cake and is now dishing it out.

More than a dozen US states have sided with the Mexican government in its lawsuit against US gun manufacturers where it accuses them of being liable for a rise in gun violence in the nation. A coalition of 14 attorneys general, from 13 Democratic states and Washington DC, filed a brief with the US District Court for the District of Massachusetts this week arguing that gunmakers are not shielded from responsibility over where their firearms wind up.

Two-thirds of Americans feel the country is going in the wrong direction. The financial markets are in upheaval, sending waves of uncertainty through the economy and almost certainly through your home. Inflation is raging. Consumer spending is falling. Three-quarters of Americans say that they are suffering from “COVID news fatigue,” impatience with the ceaseless worry about the virus. The two parties are fighting more than ever. Sensible people are raising the specter of “civil war.” Sober people are worrying about real war with Russia and maybe someday with China. And yet GDP is rising by an annual rate of 6.7...

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) on Sunday called on President Biden to not select a Supreme Court nominee who is “to the furthest left,” instead urging the president to choose someone “who will enjoy some level of bipartisan support.” “There are many, many exceptionally well-qualified African-American women who could -- who could move forward into this position,” Murkowski told co-anchor Jake Tapper on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

Sen. Marco Rubio said Sunday that “vice presidents can’t simply decide not to certify” the result of an election, distancing himself from the repeated claims of former President Donald Trump. Mr. Trump has insisted that former Vice President Mike Pence could have changed the results of the 2020 election. “I just don’t think a vice president has that power,” Mr. Rubio said on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” “If President Trump runs for reelection, I believe he would defeat Joe Biden — and I don’t want Kamala Harris to have the power as vice president to overturn that election,” he said....

Remember less than a year ago when CNN's Chris Cillizza denounced "gerrymandering" as a heinous attempt by Republicans to draw "outlandish legislative and congressional districts for purely political reasons?"

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — Alabama welcomes visitors at the “First White House of the Confederacy,” a historic home next to the state Capitol where Confederate President Jefferson Davis lived with his family in the early months of the Civil War. The museum managed by the state’s Department of Finance says it hosts nearly 100,000 people a year, many of them school children on field trips to see such things as the “relic room” where Davis’ slippers and pocket watch are preserved. Near the gift shop, a framed article describes Davis as an American patriot who accomplished “one of the most amazing...

Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, a former Phoenix reporter and news anchor, laid down a challenge to Arizonans and to President Joe Biden during an interview broadcast on Friday. Lake told the TimCast podcast that she would not ask for federal government permission to finish sections of border wall that were not yet completed during then-President Donald Trump’s tenure while essentially daring Biden to “arrest” her for doing so. “Illegals don’t ask permission to break the law. I won’t ask permission to build the wall,” Lake noted in a tweet containing a video clip segment of her interview in...

Chinese Olympics fans erupted on social media, furious that California-born skater Zhu Yi defected to China for the games but finished in a disastrous dead last place during her debut for Team China. Yi, who gave up her U.S. citizenship to become a Chinese citizen so she could compete for the communist government’s genocide Olympics, finished with the lowest score for the entire event in Beijing on Saturday, the Daily Mail reported. The 19-year-old scored a lowly 47.04 after she fell to the ice on her first combination triple flip-triple toe-loop jump and then crashed into the wall. Yi also...

As the standoff between Russia and the United States continues, White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan warned of a "very distinct" possibility Russia will attack Ukraine at "any time now." "We believe that there is a very distinct possibility that Vladimir Putin will order an attack on Ukraine. It could take a number of different forms. It could happen as soon as tomorrow or it could take some weeks yet," Sullivan said in an interview with ABC "This Week" Co-Anchor Martha Raddatz on Sunday. "[Putin] has put himself in a position with military deployments, to be able to act...

On Friday, Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon apologized for her post mocking the huge funeral of an NYPD officer, writing, “I deeply regret the meme I recently shared on Twitter that included a photo of Officer Jason Rivera’s funeral.” “I reacted quickly to the picture without connecting it to a police funeral and I realize now how insensitive and deeply disrespectful it was to make that point at that time,” she added. “’I sincerely apologize to the family of Officers Rivera and Mora for causing additional pain during their time of grieving.” On Tuesday, Sarandon sparked rage on social media after...
