~The Patriot PostVice President Mike Pence delivered a blistering speech yesterday taking on communist China, the NBA, and corporate America. The vice president must be feeling inspired by the Washington Nationals because he hit it out of the park!
His remarks yesterday were among the toughest yet from the Trump administration. Here are some excerpts of Pence’s powerful address:
Past administrations have come and gone, and all were aware of [China’s] abuses. None were willing to upset the established Washington interests who not only permitted these abuses, but often profited from them…
[S]ome multinational corporations say our economic policies are too tough and that advancing our interests and our values runs contrary to better relations with China. Needless to say, we see it very differently…
Today, China is not only exporting hundreds of billions of dollars in unfairly traded goods to the United States, but lately China has also been trying to export censorship — the hallmark of its regime.
By exploiting corporate greed, Beijing is attempting to influence American public opinion, coercing corporate America. And far too many American multinational corporations have kowtowed to the lure of China’s money and markets by muzzling not only criticism of the Chinese Communist Party, but even affirmative expressions of American values.
Nike promotes itself as a so called “social justice champion,” but when it comes to Hong Kong, it prefers checking its social conscience at the door. Nike stores in China actually removed their Houston Rockets merchandise from their shelves to join the Chinese government in protest against the Rockets general manager’s seven-word tweet, which read: “Fight for Freedom. Stand with Hong Kong.”
And some of the NBA’s biggest players and owners, who routinely exercise their freedom to criticize this country, lose their voices when it comes to the freedom and rights of the people of China. In siding with the Chinese Communist Party and silencing free speech, the NBA is acting like a wholly owned subsidiary of the authoritarian regime.
A progressive corporate culture that willfully ignores the abuse of human rights is not progressive; it is repressive. When American corporations, professional sports, pro athletes embrace censorship, it’s not just wrong; it’s un-American. American corporations should stand up for American values here at home and around the world.
Kudos to the GOP
As we noted yesterday, House Republicans are stepping up their efforts to expose the fake impeachment charade.
Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) kicked off the strategy 10 days ago when he attempted to gain access to scumbag-Adam Schiff’s kangaroo court all by himself. Predictably, Gaetz was kicked out of the room. I suggested then that the GOP needed to show up in much greater numbers, and Wednesday they did!
About 30 House Republicans walked into the Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) in the Capitol Hill basement where scumbag-Schiff has been conducting his secret hearings. They occupied the room for five hours, forcing Rep. scumbag-Schiff and the witness to leave.
As Rep. Steve Scalise put it, “If people scatter out of a room when you walk in and turn on the light, it begs the question: What are they hiding in there?” One member of Congress told CNN, “It was the closest thing I’ve seen around here to mass civil unrest.” I’m glad to hear it!
Next to declaring war, this is one of the most profound things Congress can do. Impeachment literally cancels the vote of millions of Americans by overturning an election. How can this be done behind closed doors?
Many progressives are complaining about the conservative objections to this process. Well, it’s called due process, and it is what leftists are constantly demanding for illegal aliens, rapists, murderers, and the jihadists at Gitmo!
But when the left tries to take away the president’s due-process rights, it is essentially saying that you — those who voted to put this president into office — don’t deserve due-process rights. It is a signal of how progressives will treat conservatives if they regain power.
They want to violate our First Amendment rights of free speech and religious liberty. They want to violate our Second Amendment rights, and now they are trying to limit due-process rights.
Meanwhile, I’m pleased to report that Senate Republicans (minus Pierre Delecto) are stepping up too. Sen. Lindsey Graham, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, is introducing a resolution condemning the liar-Pelosi/ scumbag-Schiff “closed door, illegitimate impeachment inquiry.” Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell supports the resolution.
In addition, Senate Republicans may even refuse to hold a formal “trial.” They are reportedly considering a motion to quickly dismiss any articles of impeachment produced as a result of this sham process. Such a motion could be approved by a simple majority vote.
No Safe Spaces
Earlier this week, I was stunned to read that The Crimson, a conservative student newspaper at Harvard University, was facing protests and boycotts because it requested a comment from ICE on a recent immigration related story. That’s it.
The paper’s opponents apparently feel that ICE has no free-speech rights and that the paper should lose its rights for attempting to talk to ICE.
Keep in mind that this hostility to free speech is happening at one of our nation’s most elite and prestigious universities. This is where future congressmen, senators, justices, and corporate leaders are currently being educated. And it’s not just Harvard.
Virtually every university campus is hostile to free speech and free thought, and this closed mindset is dangerous to a free society.
As we frequently note in this report, the left is not interested in having a debate. It wants to shut down debate. It wants to silence any and all opposition. That’s not America. We must fight back!
That’s why I encourage you to go see “No Safe Spaces” this weekend. The movie is a “must see,” featuring Dennis Prager, Adam Corolla, Tim Allen, Jordan Peterson, Alan Dershowitz, Ben Shapiro, Van Jones, and Cornell West.
Please encourage your friends and family members to see “No Safe Spaces,” which opens in theaters today. If the movie is not playing in your area, contact your local theaters and urge them to get it.

Former Vice President and 2020 Democrat presidential primary candidate Joe Biden is vowing to give Obamacare, funded by American taxpayers, to all 11 to 22 million illegal aliens living in the United States.
During an interview with Telemundo’s Jose Diaz-Balart, Biden forgot that Obamacare technically bans illegal aliens from enrolling in healthcare plans — although illegal aliens are still able to obtain subsidized and free healthcare at Americans’ expense — and promised that under his plan, all 11 to 22 million illegal aliens would be able to get Obamacare.
The exchange went as follows:
DIAZ-BALART: When I … NBC moderated that first debate with you, I didn’t … I don’t recall a clear answer, under your plan should … would the 11, 12 million undocumented immigrants that live in the United States, that have been here many for generations, would they have access …
BIDEN: Yes.
DIAZ-BALART: — to health insurance.
BIDEN: Yes, they … if they can buy into the system like everybody else.
DIAZ-BALART: Because you know, in [Obamacare] they can’t.
BIDEN: Yeah. Yeah, I know. Well they can, that’s my point. They continue to be able to do that.
DIAN-BALART: They cannot under the ObamaCare.
BIDEN: Well and that’s my point, they will though. They will be able to buy into … [illegal aliens] would be able to buy in, just like anyone else could.
Biden joins Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg — among other 2020 Democrats — in committing to forcing American taxpayers to pay for healthcare for illegal aliens who arrive in the U.S.
Already, due to loopholes, American taxpayers are spending nearly $20 billion every year to provide illegal aliens with subsidized healthcare, emergency room visits, and other health services.
Under the 2020 Democrats’ plan to provide taxpayer-funded healthcare to all illegal aliens living in the U.S., Americans would be billed potentially $660 billion every decade just to cover the costs. Other research has found that the plan would cost Americans at least $23 billion every year.
As Breitbart News has reported, experts have said that giving taxpayer-funded healthcare to effectively all foreign nationals who can make it to America’s borders would drive “strong incentives for people with serious health problems to enter the country or remain longer than their visas allow in order to get government-funded care.”
Despite 2020 Democrats’ continued push for taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal aliens, American voters are overwhelmingly opposed to the plan. The latest Wall Street Journal/NBC News survey revealed that the healthcare-for-illegal-aliens plan is the least popular policy position, with opposition from 62 percent of U.S. voters.
Similarly, a CNN poll from July discovered that 63 percent of likely swing voters oppose providing healthcare to illegal aliens, along with nearly 6-in-10 of all likely U.S. voters and 61 percent of moderates. A Rasmussen Reports survey also found that likely voters, by a majority of 55 percent, oppose giving healthcare to even the most low-income illegal aliens.
