ONE HUNDRED MILLION CORPSES — AND COUNTING: Tomorrow is Victims of Communism Day.

Communism doesn’t just kill. It psychologically scars entire nations for years and years after the Communists have finally been deposed.

JOE BIDEN MIGHT NOT BE GUILTY, BUT CORPORATE MEDIA IS: Five weeks and 19 interviews later, presumptive Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden has not been asked directly about the substantiated sexual assault accusations from Tara Reade.

Just think of the media as Democratic Party operatives with bylines, and it all make sense:

CORN, POPPED: NYT Reports Dem, Activist Rebellion Budding Over Reade Allegation. “Biden’s surrogates are getting tired of the presumptive nominee hiding while they get peppered with questions about Reade’s allegations.”

Well, it isn’t like Biden himself can go out there and cogently answer any questions.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEF: Will This Pandemic Throw the Election to the Drooling Idiot Biden?

A month and a half ago I would have said that this drooling moron had no chance of winning this election.

Now, however, some of this nation’s Democratic governors have managed to shut down their states and make people suffer for purely political purposes.

Economic ruin is Joe Biden’s best friend.

I’m still thinking that not even coronavirus could get Biden elected, but I’m also still thinking he might not actually be the nominee.

IT’S ALMOST AS IF #METOO WAS A FRAUD, AND JOURNALISTS ARE MOSTLY GARBAGE:

$8 TRILLION AND COUNTING: Manhattan Institute’s Brian Riedl’s latest deficit projections in accounting for coronavirus recovery spending.

FREEDOM OF THE SEAS: China Says PLA Scrambled Aircraft, Ships to ‘Expel’ U.S. Warship from South China Sea Island Chain.

Chinese authorities said they sortied ships and aircraft to “track, monitor, verify, identify and expel” a U.S. warship from the Paracel Island chain in the South China Sea on Tuesday, People’s Liberation Army (PLA) officials said on Chinese social media.

Navy officials confirmed to USNI News that guided-missile destroyer USS Barry (DDG-52) conducted a freedom of navigation operation in the vicinity of the island chain off Vietnam.

“These provocative acts by the U.S. side … have seriously violated China’s sovereignty and security interests, deliberately increased regional security risks and could easily trigger an unexpected incident,” reads a statement from PLA Southern Theatre Command spokesman Li Huamin, reported the South China Morning Post.

Barry’s FONOP was “incompatible with the current atmosphere as the international community is fighting pandemic … as well as the regional peace and stability.”

The SCS is international waters, and if the mainland People’s Republic of China doesn’t support freedom of navigation, then they ought not to be allowed to engage in maritime trade.
