Pinkerton: China – the Forbidden Country That Forbids the Truth
And the price of communist control, even with a capitalist economy, is fear, even terror. As Ma’s case proves, even the richest Chinese are vulnerable to harsh measures, undertaken under mysterious circumstances, and lacking any sort of due process.

Biden himself was planning to announce some of his final Cabinet nominees the next day in Wilmington; even his more controversial picks seemed as if they might have a far easier time getting confirmed than he had once expected. “I can’t believe we pulled it off,” one Democrat near the upper ranks of BidenWorld marveled to me as the day began. … [Read more...] about How BidenWorld Is Scrambling to Prepare for January 21
