TRUMP MUST BE OVER THE TARGET: China accuses US of ‘bullying’ in push for tariffs over Russian oil purchases.

China accused the United States of “unilateral bullying” in calling on allies, opens new tab to impose tariffs on China over its purchase of Russian oil, fueling tensions as Chinese and U.S officials meet in Spain to try to resolve trade disputes.

China opposes Washington’s request that the Group of Seven and NATO countries impose secondary tariffs on Chinese imports over its purchase of Russian oil, China’s commerce ministry said on Monday, calling it “a classic example of unilateral bullying and economic coercion”.

China is trying to export its way out of all kinds of domestic economic woes, while importing enough Russian oil to keep Moscow afloat during Putin’s stupid war in Ukraine.

PAM BONDI IS MAKING A FOOL OF HERSELF HERE, AND WHY?

Hate speech that crosses the line into threats of violence is NOT protected by the First Amendment. It’s a crime. For far too long, we’ve watched the radical left normalize threats, call for assassinations, and cheer on political violence. That era is over.

Under 18 U.S.C. §…

Kurt Schlichter has it right:

To be clear, the idea of “hate speech” as an exception to the First Amendment is legal nonsense, and anyone saying – even purportedly on our side – is completely full of it.

— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) September 16, 2025

There are crimes like incitement, true threats, extortion, conspiracy, etc. that involve speech, but they also involve an independent crime (see also “your money or your life”). “Hate speech” is a term invented by the left to try to remove protection from speech that they hate. It has no legal meaning, and no Attorney General, much less a Republican one, should be using it non-ironically.

KRUISER’S MORNING BRIEFING: Dems Are Lucky We’re Not Violent About Them Calling Us Violent. “The few examples of ‘right wing’ violence that Dems have been able to come up with were not committed by right wingers at all, nor were the victims publicly demonized by high-ranking members of the Republican Party. Dem smear merchants throughout the party have been badmouthing Charlie Kirk, Turning Point USA, and any other conservative organization that’s been out there trying to help fairly win elections.”

Trouble is, Whoopi, we did that, and the majority of voters elected Trump—twice. And you called him a Nazi and a fascist and a…

DISPATCHES FROM ACADEMIA: ‘Am I safe here?’ TPUSA student speaks out after GWU official calls Kirk assassination ‘fair.’

A conservative George Washington University student is speaking out after an assistant campus director at George Washington University posted on social media that it was “fair” Charlie Kirk was assassinated because he supported the Second Amendment.

“If nothing else, it is fair, in a nation where children get massacred by gun violence on the regular, the people who advocate for continued gun ownership at the expense of those children are not immune from the consequences of their advocacy. No thoughts, and no prayers,” posted Anthony Pohorilak, assistant director of academic initiatives at George Washington University’s Mount Vernon campus.

He wrote the message on Facebook, according to Fox News, which first reported on the post.

Olivia D’Angelo, a GWU graduate student, told The College Fix on Saturday she is “disgusted” by Pohorilak’s post. As an undergrad at UNC Asheville, she founded and served as president of the Turning Point USA chapter there until her graduation in May 2025.

He's right. The most influential conservative influencer was shot and assassinated in broad daylight. The country watched the video of him bleeding violently.

Chaser: Drug War: 62% Approve Military Strike.

Using the military against foreign drug traffickers has majority approval among American voters.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 62% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Donald Trump’s use of the military earlier this month against a drug-smuggling boat from Venezuela, including 42% who Strongly Approve of the strike. Thirty percent (30%) disapprove, including 15% who Strongly Disapprove.

That’s close enough to an 80/20 issue to score another win for Trump.
