Stanford is one of the leading universities in the Unites States and naturally that makes it a target for China. I've written about China's attempts to infiltrate American universities before. Back in January 2020, the head of Harvard's chemistry department, Dr. Charles Lieber, was arrested for lying about his connections to a Chinese program that recruited US scientists and offered them big money to share their expertise with Chinese universities.According to a criminal complaint, Lieber failed to disclose that he was being paid a salary of up to $50,000 per month and up to $158,000 per year in living expenses...

New York City previously tore down a historic Thomas Jefferson statue only to now erect a 12-foot bronze statue of an "overweight black woman," which many blasted as “tasteless” and more.The statue is called “Grounded in the Stars” and was unveiled on Wednesday in Times Square, created by artist Thomas J. Price. The artist's “Man Series,” a stop motion animation, will also appear nightly throughout May on the district’s billboards, providing a “two-part takeover” in the district that “amplifies traditionally marginalized bodies on a monumental scale," per the Times Square website.Price said, per the Times Square site.“Times Square stands as...

On Monday, a federal judge in the Western District of Washington issued an order setting forth a "compliance framework" for the Trump administration to follow in order to adhere to his previously entered preliminary injunction. That framework will require the administration to begin processing roughly 12,000 refugees by next Monday. It's the latest development in a series of back-and-forth court rulings and moves that have begun to seem a bit like a Ping-Pong match. A federal judge on Monday ordered the Trump administration to immediately resettle some 12,000 refugees into the U.S. under a court order that partially blocks President...

The Wuhan Institute of Virology) America will no longer fund gain-of-research studies, thanks to an executive order implemented by Donald Trump that “will drastically reduce the potential for lab-related incidents involving gain-of-function research, like that conducted on bat coronaviruses in China by the EcoHealth Alliance and Wuhan Institute of Virology.” As a reminder, the Wuhan lab where COVID-19 originated is still operating in China. “For decades, policies overseeing gain-of-function research on pathogens, toxins, and potential pathogens have lacked adequate enforcement, transparency, and top-down oversight,” the White House said in a fact sheet describing the order. “Researchers have not acknowledged the...

A man charged with child rape at a migrant shelter is appealing a change to his bail. As state and federal authorities clash over deportation matters in the Trump era, Massachusetts’ highest court will decide whether a state judge can increase the bail of someone facing deportation in an effort to keep them in the country to answer for criminal charges. This issue came before the Supreme Judicial Court for a hearing Wednesday through the case of Cory Alvarez, whose charges became a symbol of the safety issues at state-run emergency shelters last year after he was accused of raping...

Senator Thom Tillis, a senior Republican from North Carolina on key Senate committees (Banking, Finance, Judiciary), is implicated in a pattern of undisclosed real estate dealings suggesting potential fraud and tax evasion. From 2007-2016, Tillis used TRT Holdings, LLC to conduct $0 property transfers, including XXXX Enslow Place (sold for $55,000 in 2013, undisclosed) and a trailer park, transferred twice (2011 for $250,000, 2016 for $750,000) to Tillis-linked entities without disclosure. These actions violate the Ethics in Government Act, requiring disclosure of assets over $1,000 and income over $200, and may involve fraudulent conveyance, false representation, and tax evasion—crimes with...

For what it's worth, I don't think that Ms Hendrix ever planned on being a charity funding superstar, but all the planets lined up and it happened. Primarily, she tapped into the anger of all those Whites who are absolutely sick of black and brown criminality but haven't yet dared to speak out, pressing that 'donate' button made them feel better about themselves.

We previously discussed the legislation passed by Washington State democrats that requires priests to violate the sanctity of the confessional to report child abuse. I described the law as “blatantly unconstitutional” in eviscerating the right to the free exercise of religion. The state is moving to create an effective system of sacramental snitches and the Catholic Church is declaring “enough.” It has announced that any priest who complies with the law will be promptly excommunicated. We previously discussed the proposed legislation that would target priests who learn of any “reasonable” basis to believe that a child “has suffered abuse or...

So stunning, so brave. In what's being called a "contrast" to the two white men who have statues in Times Square, a new 12-foot statue of a fictionalized overweight black woman has been erected at Broadway and 46th Street. Why? The Times Square Arts association presents a big word salad on its official website for the bronze statue (it will stay standing until June 17) created by artist Thomas J Price, but then, buried deep in the word salad, we get an interesting nugget. Email: joe.kinsey@outkick.com "Installed at ground level on a wide low base, the work invites engagement with...

The Trump Administration on Wednesday invoked the state secrets privilege to block the attempt to return MS-13 gang member and wife beater Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the Unites States. The Trump DOJ invoked the State Secrets Privilege in response to a federal judge’s order demanding details on Abrego Garcia’s incarceration at El Salvador’s CECOT prison. US District Judge Paula Xinis, an Obama appointee, responded to the Trump Administration’s invocation of the state secrets privilege and ordered a formal briefing. Both parties must submit briefs by Monday. “The Court requires formal briefing of the Defendants’ invocations of privilege, principally the state...

… Kennedy’s claim about fetal debris specifically refers to the rubella component of the MMR vaccine. The rubella virus is generally grown in a human cell line known as WI-38, which was originally derived from lung tissue of a single elective abortion in the 1960s. This cell line has been used for decades, and no new fetal tissue has been used since. Certain vaccines for other diseases, such as chickenpox, hepatitis A and rabies, have also been made by growing the viruses in fetal cells. These cells are used not because of their origin, but because they provide a stable,...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Agenda,” Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) claimed President Donald Trump’s unconstitutional behavior was escalating down a dangerous path. Goldman said, “This is so misguided the notion that because he won an election that he should be able to ignore the Constitution or violate our laws is preposterous.” Host Kasie Hunt said, “Are you confident the president will uphold the Constitution?” Goldman said, “I’m not confident. I’m not at all.”

The NCAA is coming to ready to adjudicate the case of the century. The NCAA has the most important case in their history. Already they have lost on NIL and paying players, but they still have rules for cheating, lying, and advanced scouting (stealing). Michigan is beging to realize with the notice(s) of allegations, and the upcoming hearings, that their PR machine is beginning to crack. The National Media is beginning to clue in on what was going on. In part there was a FBI investigation that gave the university cover, because the NCAA could not move forward until they...

What did the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation do though? They arrest the man who exposed it. Leaked documents reveal that health “professionals” at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center knew that Audrey Hale, the disturbed “trans” individual who slaughtered six innocent people during a school shooting rampage in 2023, had “suicidal” and “homicidal” ideations years before the killing spree. Who knows how long Hale had been receiving mental health care by 2019, but that was four years before the shooting. Mental health “professionals” noticed Hale’s evident “anger” grow with “greater frequency,” and she admitted she had thoughts of killing herself and...
