When asked about what efforts he would take to make sure China cooperated with an investigation regarding the origin of the coronavirus, President Biden reinforced the idea that China wants to be considered a normal country & they’re worried about their reputation with the world.
Again, President Biden doesn’t understand China. They could care less about what the world believes regarding their image. They care about the bottom line, which is protecting their self-interests.
China will never open up their lab to international scientific examination until the world punishes China through concrete steps that make it so hard for China to avoid cooperating.
The leadership of Russia and China are beyond shame. They will only respond to pressure. If you don’t understand that, you don’t understand the dynamics America faces regarding Russia and China.

It is very disturbing to hear President Biden suggest that it would hurt Putin’s standing if people throughout the world believed he interfered in our election or the elections of other nations.
It is clear to me that Putin could care less about how he’s viewed by others and, quite frankly, would enjoy the reputation of being able to successfully interfere in the internal matters of other countries.
Also, I believe Russia is proud of their efforts in interfering in our elections and will not stop until they’re made to do so.
It appears that the Deep State may have a science department!
It is imperative Congress investigate whether or not State Department and NIH officials suppressed attempts to determine if #Covid19 came from a lab leak in Wuhan, China.
Based on what we now know, this appears to be very similar behavior to what we saw with the discredited Christopher Steele / Russian Dossier — simply ignoring information that gets in the way of a desired outcome.
In this case, the desired outcome was there could be no way COVID-19 came from a leak from Wuhan Lab because it would mean President Trump was right and also expose American scientists for collaborating with Chinese scientists.
The rise in crime throughout the country has to be dealt with in police reform.
In my view police reform has two goals:
▶️ Making sure abusive practices by the police are reformed with enhanced training, more transparency, and when it comes to wrongdoing - accountability.
▶️ Equally important is that police officers and departments have the resources to deal with issues that are dropped on their doorstep by society such as dealing with those who are mentally impaired.....
.....and that we create conditions for better recruitment and retention of character-driven officers to protect our streets and neighborhoods.
Today’s decision by the House Republican Conference regarding Congresswoman Cheney was not about her vote for impeachment.
It was about her belief President Trump should be purged from the GOP and those who objected to the results of the 2020 election should be disqualified from future leadership positions.
As a result, the House GOP Conference has decided to move forward in a different direction.
I completely support Governor @henrymcmaster’s decision to stop taking federal unemployment assistance at the end of next month instead of waiting for it to expire in September.
The federal unemployment benefit has had the effect of discouraging return to work, and it is now time for that program to come to an end.
The federal unemployment benefit has made it almost impossible for service industry businesses to maintain their workforce. In a majority of cases, the unemployment benefits exceed wages earned from working.
