China

Even the left is beginning to understand the danger of the Chinese-owned app TikTok after months of concern. 
Bloomberg news reported on July 27 that the Biden campaign sent a memo to staffers, telling them to delete the app from both their work and personal devices due to security and privacy concerns.

Whether it's the response to COVID-19 or the consulate in Houston being ordered closed, whenever a China-related controversy is the news, MSNBC wonders if President Trump is just looking for a distraction. MSNBC Live host Katy Tur wondered if Trump's announcement that the U.S. might ban the TikTok app and later consideration of a possible buyout by Microsoft was "because he needed a…

Liberal business outlets elevating the Chinese state media’s attack on the U.S. over the data-harvesting Chinese app TikTok is a disgusting example of their anti-American bent.

“The overwhelming humidity of the Chinese summer was not enough to stifle the ardor of the crowds of 20-somethings honoring Mao Zedong, the founding father of Communist China,” that’s how a disgusting Tuesday morning article in The Washington Post began. The headline of the shameful propaganda piece declared: “Trump views China’s Communist Party as a threat. Young Chinese see it as a ticket to…

Hours after ESPN decided to stand up to China on Wednesday by publishing a devastation piece on player abuse at the NBA’s Chinese academies, CNN and Situation Room host Wolf Blitzer brought on NBA commissioner Adam Silver for a 16-minute segment that not only ignored the league’s love affair with the communist, concentration camp-running country, but Silver’s support for Joe Biden.…

Substituting for Joy Reid on MSNBC's AM Joy, Tiffany Cross asked National Diversity Coalition for Trump's Bruce LeVell: "[H]as Donald Trump has ever promised you anything financially in exchange for your blind support of his administration, or helping his campaign?" Cross also "correct[ed]" LeVell for using the term "China virus," calling it "racist." But Cross repeatedly refused to answer…

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) ripped The New York Times on Wednesday after they published on op-ed from a Chinese scientist trashing the American response to the coronavirus. "Explicit Chinese propaganda: No problem," he tweeted. "Op-ed from a Republican Senator supported by most Americans: Fire the editor!" 

Andrea Mitchell welcomed Virginia Senator and former vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine onto her Wednesday show to discuss the State Department ordering the Chinese consulate in Houston to be closed by Friday. Mitchell wondered if the decision was just political grandstanding by President Trump to distract from his failing on the pandemic.

Let’s face it: “Uyghurs” isn’t easy to spell, and “Stand With Hong Kong” is kind of long for the back of a jersey, at least compared to “BLM.” And being confronted with actual systemic oppression is pretty embarrassing for millionaire athletes who fancy themselves social justice warriors. So the victims of the Chinese communist government really couldn’t expect even a nod from the oh-so woke…

Back there in the stone age of March, 2020, I focused in this space on the media and China. The headline: "The Media’s Communist China Problem." In which was discussed the uncanny willingness of American liberal media ( like CNN and The New York Times) to stand up for, if not bed down with, the government of China - aka the Chinese Communist Party.This week, Attorney General William Barr…

One of the more intriguing affects that Donald Trump’s presidency (and, prior to that candidacy) has been his ability to have the left and their media allies to say “the quiet part” out loud, discard masks of objectivity, and show little care for the public they serve. Such was the case on Tuesday’s Situation Room as host Wolf Blitzer and assembled guests openly stated their hatred for the “…

If President Trump were to quote one of the world’s deadliest dictators in a positive way, the liberal media would have a Chernobyl-level meltdown. In fact, they tried to claim his campaign’s use of a bald eagle was a nod to Nazi Germany. But when Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden quoted Mao Tse-tung during a Monday evening campaign event, his allies at ABC, CBS, and NBC covered it…

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo explained in a Fox News interview that the U.S. government may consider a ban on Chinese social media such as popular video/meme sharing app “TikTok.” This follows similar action by India, which reportedly banned no less than 59 Chinese apps. Pompeo declared in a Fox News interview that the viral video sharing app TikTok is no laughing matter for American…

On Thursday, all three network morning shows seized on excerpts from former National Security Advisor John Bolton’s new book trashing President Trump. The NBC, ABC, and CBS broadcasts repeatedly hailed supposed “bombshells” and “explosive” revelations in the nasty tell-all, including Trump’s allegedly treasonous attempt to get China to buy American agricultural products.
