One of the most common criticisms of President Donald Trump’s foreign policy used to be that he seemed willing to meet foreign leaders “without preconditions.” Whether Russian President Vladimir Putin, North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, or Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, the media insisted that Trump’s willingness without preconditions to meet was reckless. Many even suggested…
A rising number of companies in China are claiming to be related to blockchain technology. Multiple media outlets have issue warnings to put an end to the frenzy. The Chinese government vows for blockchain, not cryptos. Following Chinese President Xi Jinping’s decision to “accelerate the development of blockchain technology,” a massive number of companies in…
A copy of a witness’s opening statement during the closed-door impeachment inquiry was given to the Washington Post before copies were provided to members of Congress and staffers engaged in the inquiry, a recently released transcript shows. Witnesses’ opening statements have frequently been leaked to the media, allowing for their claims to reach the public…

We have selective leaks of this secret testimony. We have the ringleader behind all of this, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), secretly conspiring with the fake whistleblower. And…
Trump’s China call! The Ukraine texts! Chuck Todd melts down! Republicans break with Trump! Just like the media’s phony Australia freak-out earlier this week, on Thursday, the fake news media hit us with round after round of sound and fury signifying nothing. As the Ukraine Hoax loses steam, as those of us keeping our heads…
