Either leftists are working for the Communist Chinese Party (CCP), or they have certainly read their playbooks. The playbooks of the CCP are “The Art of Warfare” and “Unrestricted Warfare”—both of which speak to exploiting the weakness of an enemy and argue that the United States does not consider the wider picture of military strategy, including “legal tools” (lawfare and economic factors) to leverage one’s opponent and circumvent the need for direct military action resulting in the same, if not even greater, destructive force.

Three unelected New York federal judges of the Court of International Trade (all of whom are appointed for life) voted to block President Trump’s trade tariffs which he put in place using an emergency-powers law. This comes on the heels of other federal judges who have tried to block Trump’s policies on deportation of illegal immigrants and mass layoffs of government workers.
What part of, “the U.S. has a $37 trillion national debt,” do these unelected justices not understand?
Why is it that the warped challenges to good policy always come out of New York and Washington, D.C.?
On Bret Baier’s Special Report, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said,
It seems highly inappropriate for the judiciary to wade in here when the senate had the opportunity to override the president and didn’t. So in terms of separation of powers, the Senate has chosen not to exercise their powers, and the president absolutely has the right to set the trade agenda for the U.S. This administration is committed to fare trade, and we are striking the best deals for the American people, and anything that the courts do to get in the way, both harms the American people in terms of trade and in terms of tariff revenue.
Regardless of the left loony courts, it seems trade negotiations with Japan and the European Union are proceeding well, but when Bret asked Bessent how he would characterize the talks with China, Bessent said, “I would say they are a bit stalled. I believe that we will be having more talks with them in the next few weeks, and I believe we may at some point have a call between the President and Party Chair Xi.”
Bret stated, “So, stalled. There was a time when the president thought it was moving forward pretty significantly.” Bessent responded, saying this:
Again, I think given the magnitude of the talks, given the complexity, that this is going to require both leaders to weigh in with each other. They have a very good relationship, and I am confident that the Chinese will come to the table when President Trump makes his preferences known.
It’s interesting to ask if someone might be behind these attempts to block the Trump agenda, like Soros-funded groups consisting of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), which are reported to be “behind a lawsuit that is now preventing President Donald Trump from deporting violent criminal illegal aliens to South Sudan” all of whom have extensive rap sheets—Human Rights First joined with two other organizations suing the Trump Administration to block the deportation. From 2016 to 2021, “the Soros network’s Open Society Foundation threw nearly $6.2 million into the coffers of Human Rights First.” In 2021 alone the Open Society Foundation gave more than $2.3 million to Human Rights First.
It is also fascinating when you discover that “the U.S. currently has at least 75 Soros-backed social justice prosecutors” representing “1 in 5 Americans or more than 75 million people, including half of America’s 50 most populous cities and counties.” From 2018 to 2021 Soros spent “$13 million on just 10 prosecutors’ races” being the biggest spender in the race and covering as much as 90% of progressive candidates campaign spending. As of 2022, Soros had spent more than $40 million to elect prosecutors using a series of “shell organizations, affiliates, and pass-through committees” to steer contributions to candidates, even providing “perks to preferred prosecutors.” On top of all of this, “Soros has contributed hundreds of millions of dollars—possibly well over a billion dollars—to organizations directly or indirectly that constitute the progressive prosecution infrastructure.”
