Biden Administration to Help Fund Schools That Host Chinese Propaganda & Spy Apparatus

How Fucking Stupid Can We Be? This Stupid:

WFB - The Biden administration is quietly helping American universities that host China's Confucius Institute on their campuses circumvent a ban on receiving federal funds.

The Defense Department in late March announced that it would grant waivers to allow schools to host chapters of the Confucius Institute, a Chinese Communist Party-backed program that Beijing uses to peddle influence and steal intellectual property from American universities. The department’s waiver program is a response to the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which barred American colleges and universities from receiving federal dollars if they maintain Confucius Institute chapters.

The Defense Department is subverting federal law.

"The Chinese Communist Party is subverting U.S. institutions and Joe Biden is sabotaging legislation to stop them," Rep. Jim Banks (R., Ind.), a member of the House Select Committee on China, told the Washington Free Beacon. Banks added that the Biden administration has essentially "greenlit China’s espionage and malign influence operations on college campuses."

The workaround comes amid warnings from the intelligence community that American colleges are a "soft target" for Chinese spies. China has opened at least 100 Confucius Institutes in the United States since 2008, with China pouring more than $158 million into them.

The FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies have repeatedly warned that these outposts are "ultimately beholden to the Chinese government" and pose an espionage risk. Schools seeking a waiver only need to send the Pentagon a letter affirming that their Confucius Institute supports "academic freedom" and "openness."

Universities that have active partnerships with the Pentagon also must "demonstrate that it has adequate measures in place to secure information, including information generated by scientific research," according to the guidance. This includes cybersecurity firewalls and prohibitions on Confucius Institute staff gaining access to sensitive research projects.

This could prove difficult for a number of American schools that have been infiltrated by Chinese spies.

Sniffy & Cackles Announce Plans to Finish the Job Of Finishing America

This morning America woke to a slick, cloying video by the faceless collective operating the Biden Administration announcing its intention to continue embarrassing us on the world stage and running America into the ditch. The putative president provided a slurry voiceover for the three-minute ad, though he himself only appeared in the video for seven seconds. The rest of the ad was divided between footage of scary “magger extremists,” as the alleged president derides half the country, and older footage of Biden along with cackles and his old lady, and a host of good progressive Americans. There was even a one-second glimpse of Biden alongside Saint Barky, recalling the good ole days.

Since Democrats do nothing but raze norms these days, we shouldn’t be surprised that their figurehead announced their 2024 campaign in a cowardly pre-dawn video release rather than a raucous in-person live appearance, replete with flags, pounding music, and a thrilling balloon drop. If you still haven’t realized that the “leaders” the people “vote for” aren’t really doing the leading and that the American Left has become a headless monster, then I can’t help you.

Proof The WH Photobomber Lives!!!

There was a nasty rumor that the White House Photobomber had been captured and was being held against their will in some secret deep state holding facility. Alas they have reappeared.

A Good Monday Morning

 

Why Are Redheads Being Erased In Media?

What do Ariel from The Little Mermaid, Annie from Annie or April O’Neil from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles all have in common? All of these characters (and many more) were originally red headed white females who have been erased and replaced with blacks in recent iterations. What may appear to be a harmless trend intended to create more representations of non white characters, in actuality is just race-baiting soft skull progressive guilt that's not only divisive, but counterproductive.

What’s even more ironic is that redheads only make up 1-2% of the global population and so they're also a minority compared to the black population, which is 13% of the American population.

As a stunning Auburn Haired Beauty myself  *cough* all this "Ginger Genocide" troubles me.  You tell me, where would we be without all the famous Redheads of Western Tradition?? And how will they be portrayed in the future?

Like Queen Elizabeth I, who drove the Roman Legions out of Britain?  Or Galileo, who discovered the Sun?  Or General George Armstrong Custer who defeated the British at Gettysburg.  And would we even know who Elvis Presley was if not for him appearing with Ann Margret as she danced seductively around him in the movies?  Or Winston Churchill, best known as the man who taught the world the fine art of smoking cigars in the bathtub. Or the power of Red Hair as in Tina Louise keeping the men of Gilligan's Island so sexually frustrated to a point they couldn't even fix a fucking hole in the boat! 

Will these great Gingers also be washed from history and replace with POC? 

In a recent story in the news about race-swap, fans of the original animated Disney movie 'The Little Mermaid' questioned why redheaded Princess Ariel had to be race-swapped. Of course they were called Racist for even bring it up. But the original source material, the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale is Danish in origin, and though Disney’s animated Ariel does have red hair, Gingers are the most common in northern and western European countries.

Once you notice it in one place, it’s hard not to see it everywhere. It’s impossible to ignore the fact that prominent red-haired characters most often than any other to fall victim to the diversity police.

We’re supposed to smile and nod when we read that white people should be "eradicated," that we’re "parasites" that need to be permanently "cured," that whiteness should be abolished, that we should be killed in a genocide, or that our death "will mean liberation for all." To that I say "Fuck You"

 

Instead of addressing actual inequality, Hollywood’s current race-swapping obsession feels more like a counterproductive virtue signal. There’s no shortage of incredible fairy and folk tales from Africa, South America, Asia, and the Middle East. There’s also no shortage of creative brain power to craft enchanting new plots with unique characters. I hope it's just they are to lazy or not smart enough to make up their own shit! But it's not hard to believe otherwise.
