The Chinese Communist government announced “countermeasures” on Wednesday against the U.S. designation of more Chinese entities under the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA). China denounced the U.S. listings as “illegal,” without addressing the actual issue of slave labor extracted from oppressed minorities like the Uyghurs. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) added 43 more Chinese companies to the list of entities presumed to use slavery last Friday. The affected industries included apparel, agriculture, and aluminum. “The American worker must not be undercut and cheated by foreign companies that use slave labor. Our job is to defend the Homeland,…

On Wednesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed responded to Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel (D) saying that she’ll skip the state party’s nominating convention because she wouldn’t feel safe there by saying that everyone should be safe, but “I think there is a challenge when folks try to use the specter of antisemitism to extend it toward protecting a foreign government against criticism. And I think that’s the place that the Attorney General and I might disagree.” Host Kaitlan Collins asked, “One thing during the campaign that we saw people in your state talk…

Screenshot A Sacramento Superior Court judge on Thursday upheld radical Democrat Attorney General Rob Bonta’s last-minute, heavily slanted ballot title and summary for Proposition 39, California’s common-sense voter ID initiative, locking in language that frames the measure as one that “PROHIBITS CITIZENS FROM VOTING UNLESS THEY PRESENT GOVERNMENT-ISSUED IDENTIFICATION.” Judge Jennifer K. Rockwell denied the petition for writ of mandate filed by Californians for Voter ID, Yes on 39, and registered voter Donald DiCostanzo. The court ruled that Bonta’s materials “accurately describe the effect of the measure” and fell within the “considerable latitude” the Attorney General enjoys under California election…

Company representatives for a proposed data center left a city council meeting in Oregon after they discovered protestors had brought a guillotine and displayed it outside during the municipal session. The company reps departed the late July meeting in Salem prematurely, citing “safety concerns,” Yahoo News reported. The guillotine, which severs a victim’s head with a falling blade, became the iconic symbol of the French revolution, which started out as a movement for democracy but ended up as a tyrannical bloodbath where even France’s King Louis XVI and his queen Marie Antoinette were decapitated by the efficient device in front…

Iranian officials continued to make disparaging comments about the United States and tout their plans to take permanent control of the Strait of Hormuz on Friday, even as the White House remains optimistic about an imminent “deal” that would end the conflict in the Middle East and secure safe passage for shipping. Iranian parliamentary speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf on Friday mocked President Donald Trump for constantly backing down from his threats to launch a “massive attack” and claiming Iran wants to make a deal. “‘Massive attack coming… wait, never mind, they want to negotiate.’ That’s theater diplomacy on loop,” he…

The American workforce has fewer foreign born workers, especially foreign men, than it did a year ago, reflecting the Trump administration’s efforts to enforce U.S. immigration laws and crack down on illegal entry. The foreign-born population overall fell by 401,000 to 48.1 million over the past year. The number of foreigners in the labor force declined by 550,000 to 31.5 million. Employment fell by 278,000 to around 30.5 million. The declines came entirely from a drop in foreign-born men. The population fell by 819,000 to 22.8 million. The number of foreign-born men in the labor force fell by 962,000 to…

Wednesday on CNN’s “OutFront,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) claimed Republicans would vote for Michigan Democratic Senate Candidate Abdul El-Sayed. Jayapal said, “I’m struck by the fact that they have nothing positive to offer voters. All they can do is try to attach labels to Abdul El-Sayed after seeing a primary. That was a remarkable turnout from voters. I mean, 1.4 million votes, I believe, were cast in the Michigan primary; people are electrified and being on the ground with Abdul. I can tell you he is an electrifying candidate. He has really mobilized a whole group of voters who had given…
