As a "fentanyl father" I am deeply grateful for President @realDonaldTrump making real accountability for this scourge an immediate priority. I also appreciate pathbreaking work by the @committeeonccp and @heritage teams in amplifying the evidence and outlining real policy action steps.

In 2023, more Americans died from fentanyl and opioid poisoning than during the entire Vietnam War. But the fentanyl crisis is no accident—it is a deliberate act by the CCP, aided by criminal cartels that operated with impunity along the southern border for four years.

@NewshamGrant Very true.

[Mike Bales 🫡🇺🇸 @MikeBales]

He’s the President of the United States — not your ex, not your personal villain, and not the cause of your misery. You don’t have to support him. That’s America.

But if someone is simply backing the sitting President and it makes you rage, cut people off, attack families, or act like garbage — you are the problem.

You’ve turned politics into a personality disorder: nonstop outrage and toddler meltdowns online. Grow up. He won. The sky didn’t fall. Pay your bills, care for your family, touch grass, and move on.

This is a huge escalation- Beijing sanctioning 5 eyes lawmakers simply for visiting Taiwan.

🇳🇿 PM @chrisluxonmp must meet this challenge very firmly indeed. Beijing is treating 🇳🇿 this way because they think they can.

The impacts of censorship: Independent China analyst and journalist @Terenceshen tells host @SteveYates that the Chinese people want to know the truth and share information with the rest of the world.

🚨MUST WATCH!🔥

Zia Yusuf just brilliantly dismantled Cathy Newman on Sky News.

Newman tried her usual gotcha routine, accusing Nigel Farage of “incitement” for calling for “pure cold rage” over the Henry Nowak bodycam footage.

Zia flipped the script instantly:

“Have you watched the footage?”

She claimed she had.

“What emotions did you feel watching it?”

Newman dodged. Squirmed. Refused to answer. Kept repeating: “Is that incitement or not?”

Zia stayed calm and pressed:

“With respect, I’m asking you what emotions did you feel?

“The last words Henry heard on this earth were his rights being read to him while he was bleeding to death, handcuffed. Human to human, Cathy… how did you feel watching that?”

She still wouldn’t answer. Just kept trying to steer it back to her scripted “incitement” trap.

Zia nailed it:

“Millions of people of all races and religions are absolutely furious because this is a crystal-clear example of two-tier policing.”

A dying British teenager crying “I’ve been stabbed” and “I can’t breathe”, while officers prioritised a racism allegation over helping him.

Cathy couldn’t answer because she’d either have to admit she felt the same rage (and undermine her own attack on Farage)… or reveal she felt nothing, which would look even worse.

Absolutely pathetic.

Playing partisan gotcha games while a young man lay dying ignored by the police. Zia exposed exactly what this is: a refusal to engage with uncomfortable reality. Well played, Zia. The public sees it.

“The United States cannot depend on one country for 90% of anything.”

@SecRubio is right: the United States cannot depend on China for anything that is critical to our economy and supply chains.

'His murderer was afforded decency. He was believed'

Henry Nowak's father says the 'contrast' in the police's treatment of his son and his murderer is 'unbearable' in a statement after Nowak's killer was sentenced to 21 years in prison.

Would it be cool if that money came from and expanded the family business of the Sopranos? Cause it kinda is.

[Hoops @Hoopss]

Stephen Curry reportedly will earn a MASSIVE $1.19 BILLION in his new 10-year contract with Li-Ning 😱

That is worth almost 4 TIMES more than what he earned in his 12-year contract with Under Armour 😳

This endorsement deal with Li-Ning is tied to brand revenue—meaning the number could grow even higher over time — and it is estimated that he might earn more than $1 Billion over the span of 10 years.💰

The greatest shooter of all time is now getting paid like one of the greatest athletes of all time.

[Andrew J Phelan @ajphelo]

@SteveYates The laobaixing who are really struggling atm are not thinking about Taiwan I can assure you. It may be Xi’s no 1 but he can’t even get his generals on board.

[Enes Kanter FREEDOM @EnesFreedom]

Stephen Curry signs shoe endorsement contract with Chinese company Li-Ning.

He lectures America about “justice” and “values” while cashing checks from a company tied to the same Chinese system accused of forced labor, sweatshops, and brutal human rights abuses.

He and Steve Kerr talk a big game politically, but always seem to appease China.

The #NBA loves activism until China is involved.

Freedom for sale.

[Joe Moschella @joemosch]

This is the China market – sell your assets or hand them over for locals to manage. And yet, Western brands are still trying to 'improve their flagging fortunes.'

The party's over, and there wasn't much of one to begin with.
