Biden’s National Security Adviser Issues Warning to China on Russia

White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan underscored that there is no evidence that China has been providing military assistance to Russia in its war with Ukraine.

Responding to CIA Director William Burns’s public assertion that he was confident in the intelligence that China was mulling the prospects of giving lethal aid to Russia, Sullivan stressed that doing so would be a “mistake” and that the United States will monitor the situation “carefully.”

“We actually haven’t seen them take a final decision to provide the aid to Russia, and we haven’t seen the aid be provided to Russia. So we will watch carefully, we will be vigilant, and we will continue to send a strong message that we believe that sending military aid to Russia,” Sullivan told CNN’s State of the Union with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash.

Sullivan said that deciding to provide military aid to Russia “would be a bad mistake, and China should want no part of it.”

China has publicly denied reports that it is weighing lethal aid, despite Burns’ statement. When pressed about how the U.S. would respond, Sullivan demurred, opting to keep the U.S. communication with Beijing private, though he stressed that the consequences have been communicated with China.

Plan Would Let Kids Seek Euthanasia… Without Telling Parents!

Assisted suicide and euthanasia have become rapidly accepted in Canada under the government’s Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD) program, but there are still efforts to expand it even further. A new government report on MAiD was recently presented to Parliament, urging the inclusion of minors in the eligibility for physician-assisted death — without parental consent.

The Special Joint Committee on Medical Assistance in Dying presented its latest report last week, which included a recommendation that minors be able to request MAiD.

“For MAID and mature minors, the committee heard a mix of views about whether MAID should be available to those under the age of 18,” the report read. “Many witnesses believed that age alone does not determine whether someone is capable of consenting to MAID. At the same time, a cautious approach was recommended, especially since there is little evidence from youth themselves on this topic. Most witnesses agreed that if MAID for mature minors were allowed, it should only be under track one (reasonably foreseeable natural death). The committee recommends that mature minors should have access to MAID under track one. The committee also recommends that youth be consulted on the topic of MAID and mature minors.”

The committee then made the recommendation that Canada should begin, within five years, funding research and consulting “with minors on the topic of MAID, including minors with terminal illnesses, minors with disabilities, minors in the child welfare system and Indigenous minors.” (Read more from “Plan Would Let Kids Seek Euthanasia… Without Telling Parents!” HERE)

Bryan Kohberger Could Face Firing Squad If Convicted of Idaho Students’ Murder

Bryan Kohberger could face a firing squad if convicted of killing four college students in Idaho.

Kohberger, 28, a criminal-justice doctoral student, has been charged in the Nov. 13 stabbing deaths of University of Idaho students Kaylee Goncalves, 21, Madison Mogen, 21, Ethan Chapin, 20 and Xana Kernodle, 20.

Prosecutors have not said whether they plan to pursue the death penalty against Kohberger if he is convicted, but it is certainly possible considering the heinous crime.

Enter GOP state lawmaker Rep. Bruce Skaug.

Skaug, chairman of the state House Judiciary, Rules and Administration Committee, last week introduced a bill that would bring back the firing squad as a legal form of execution in Idaho, according to the East Idaho News.

GOP Senator Suggests Biden Is ‘Compromised’ by China Because He ‘Won’t Stand Up to Dictators’

GOP Florida Sen. Rick Scott on Sunday accused President Biden of repeatedly “pacifying” China and suggested the commander in chief may be “compromised” somehow by the Communist country.

Scott told John Catsimatidis on his WABC 770 AM radio show that no American company should be doing business in China or Russia, saying the US must “focus on what’s good for America, what’s good for Americans, what’s good for our children, our grandchildren.

“​All that Biden does is pacify China. I mean, I don’t know why he does it​. I don’t know if he’s compromised. I don’t know what it is​. But ​this is a guy that won’t stand up to dictators around the world​,” Scott said.

The president has had to deflect questions for months about his role in first son Hunter Biden’s business dealings in Ukraine and China, which were first reported by The Post in October and November 2020.

Scott reiterated comments he made on Twitter last week in response to a poll that showed Americans are now more concerned with China’s influence around the world than Russia’s, and that 58% disapprove of how Biden is handling relations with Beijing.

Dwyane Wade’s Child Legally Changes ID to Female despite Birth Mother’s Opposition

Ex-NBA star Dwyane Wade’s son, born Zion Malachi Airamis Wade, has legally changed his first name to Zaya in an L.A. court on Friday and is now officially a “female,” even in the face of opposition over the move from his birth mother.

The teen, who has gone by Zaya since 2020 and wants to be seen as a girl, also won permission from the Los Angeles Superior Court to change gender markers on official documents, according to People.

Wade’s son first came out as transgender in 2020 and made his first appearance as a transgender girl in March of that year.

That “re-introduction” came a month after the couple went public to proudly support the boy, who decided to be known as a girl named Zaya going forward. (Read more from “Dwyane Wade’s Child Legally Changes ID to Female despite Birth Mother’s Opposition” HERE)

Tennessee Legislature Passes Bill to Ban Drag Shows in Front of Kids

Tennessee lawmakers passed a bill that would prevent drag shows from taking place on public property or in front of children.

The bill classifies “male and female impersonators” as adult cabaret performers, while also banning “adult-oriented performances that are harmful to minors.” The legislation, SB3, now makes its way to Republican Gov. Bill Lee’s office.

State Rep. Chris Todd, R-Madison County, filed the bill, saying “this is a common sense child-safety bill.” The bill, which passed by a vote of 79 to 19, makes it illegal to host an “adult cabaret performance” in a location where children are present. The legislation, which was proposed by Senate Majority Leader Jack Johnson also bans adult cabaret performances on public property.

Cabaret performers are defined as “topless dancers, go-go dancers, exotic dancers, strippers, [and] male or female impersonators who provide entertainment that appeals to a prurient interest.”

Elon Musk Slams Dilbert Backlash as ‘Racist’ Against Whites (VIDEO)

Twitter CEO Elon Musk is slamming the fallout over Dilbert cartoonist Scott Adams’ comments bashing Blacks as “racist” against whites.

Newspapers across the nation have dropped the Dilbert comic strip since Adams unleashed a tirade Wednesday on his YouTube program saying that white people should “get the hell away from Black people.” Adams also called Black people a “hate group,” adding: “I don’t want to have anything to do with them.” Adams has continued to defend his comments.

In a series of tweets responding to the uproar on Sunday, Musk insisted that “the media is racist,” and the backlash against Adams is “racist against whites.”

“For a *very* long time, US media was racist against non-white people, now they’re racist against whites & Asians,” Musk tweeted. “Same thing happened with elite colleges & high schools in America. Maybe they can try not being racist.”

Musk did agree with another tweet that said “Adams’ comments weren’t good,” but which also added that ” there’s an element of truth” to them. Musk indicated in another reply that media organizations promote a “false narrative” by giving more coverage to unarmed Black victims of police violence than they do to unarmed White victims of police violence.

Chinese Military Warns U.S. Navy Plane to Stay Away or ‘Pay Full Responsibility’

The Chinese military had a warning for the U.S. after an encounter escalated tensions between the two countries.

A U.S. Navy P-8 plane was recently flying 30 miles outside the South China Sea when it received a radio call from China to move away from its airspace.

“No approaching anymore, or you will pay full responsibility,” an operative of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) said over the radio.

Lt. Nikki Slaughter, who was piloting the U.S. Navy P-8 aircraft at the time, quickly responded just as a Chinese jet armed with air-to-air missiles came up alongside them.

“PLA fighter aircraft, this is U.S. Navy P-8A. I have you off my left wing, and I intend to proceed to the west. I request that you do the same, over,” Slaughter said. (Read more from “Chinese Military Warns U.S. Navy Plane to Stay Away or ‘Pay Full Responsibility'” HERE)

West Point Said Applicants Needed the COVID Vaccine Weeks after Mandate Ended

The U.S. Military Academy at West Point affirmed a COVID-19 vaccination requirement for incoming cadets weeks after the Secretary of Defense did away with the military vaccine mandate, according to a spokesperson and separate communications viewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

West Point had revoked travel restrictions for unvaccinated members as of Jan. 31, according to an official Army order obtained by the DCNF and an academy spokesperson, and as of Friday the Army formally repealed all internal COVID-19 vaccine requirements in line with Department of Defense (DOD) orders from earlier in January. Yet even in late February, after the application deadline had passed, the academy’s admissions office confirmed a vaccination requirement for incoming new cadets, according to West Point communications viewed by the DCNF and a spokesperson.

“There is no telling how many potential cadets this arbitrary mandate has dissuaded from serving our nation,” Republican Rep. Jim Banks of Indiana told the DCNF.

West Point’s application deadline for high school seniors occurs in early February, according to the website. (Read more from “West Point Said Applicants Needed the COVID Vaccine Weeks after Mandate Ended” HERE)
