The National Pulse today is publishing a comprehensive list of all current and former elected U.S. officials who participated in sponsored trips to China on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party-tied China-United States Exchange Foundation.
The full list follows a National Pulse exposé on media participants of the China-United States Exchange Foundation (CUSEF) sponsored trip to China – the Communist Party-linked propaganda group seeking “favorable coverage” from U.S. institutions.

A federal judge on Friday dismissed a lawsuit by Congressman Louie Gohmert of Texas that sought to empower Vice President Mike Pence to unilaterally decide the 2020 election results rather than have Congress count the electoral votes on January 6. Pence and the Department of Justice on Thursday had urged the court to reject Gohmert's lawsuit, saying the power lies with the House and the Senate.
U.S. District Court Judge Jeremy Kernodle of the Eastern District of Texas said the plaintiffs lack "standing" to sue, since they claim "institutional injury" to the House of Representatives, but "that is insufficient to support standing."

Nancy Pelosi’s home in San Francisco has been vandalized. Her garage was spray painted, fake blood was poured all over the place, and a pig head was involved. The graffiti clearly read: Cancel Rent! We Want Everything! It is highly suspected that the vandalism was due to anger over the stimulus package. Antifa has been accused.
San Francisco is mostly Democrat, so it is widely believed that this vandalism was NOT carried about by conservatives.After all, it was Antifa and leftists who vandalized American cities all summer. View the pictures below:

Let’s hope that Joe and Jill Biden’s struggles with trying to pop a confetti cannon on live TV, isn’t an omen on what to expect in a Biden administration.The Democratic politician, who shockingly looked every bit the 78 years he has under his belt and then some — was being promoted by his ABC media allies in an appearance on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve.The awkward segment gave Biden the opportunity to deliver “a special message of hope, unity and best wishes for the year ahead,” and things would get more awkward when a confetti popper got the better of his wife — who host Ryan Seacrest

The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco ruled in favor of President Donald Trump’s order barring entry to legal immigrants until they fund their own health insurance and avoid becoming a “public charge’ for taxpayers.
The San Francisco Chronicle put the number of migrants who would not be admissible at an estimated 375,000 every year — or about one million every 2.5 years.
The Chronicle claimed migrants have a right to enter American’s homeland even if they need Americans to pay for their healthcare, and suggested that President-elect Joe Biden would probably reverse Trump’s move:

I took note over at PowerlineBlog today of this piece by John Hinderaker of a study published by Dr. John Lott using statistical analysis to examine comparative voting patterns in counties in Georgia and Pennsylvania. The study is relatively dense, at over 25 pages long, and I’m going to post this article prior to accomplishing a detailed analysis of the work. I’ve embedded it below.
But the “30,000 ft view” of Dr. Lott’s conclusions — drawn from comparisons of patterns and behavior from precinct-level reporting of vote totals — is that, as a statistical matter, the EVIDENCE of vote fraud is inescapable.
Why have I emphasized “evidence”?

President Donald Trump announced that evidence of alleged election fraud will be presented on Jan. 6 during the Joint Session of Congress.“Massive amounts of evidence will be presented on the 6th. We won, BIG!” Trump wrote on Twitter.It comes as Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) and about 40 House GOP lawmakers have announced they would challenge the Electoral College votes during the Jan. 6 Joint Session of Congress due to alleged fraud and irregularities during the Nov. 3 election. The challenge could lead to several hours of debate during the session.

Just days ahead of the Senate runoff elections in Georgia, a tech expert unveiled key vulnerabilities in the peach state’s voting machines. During a Thursday livestream, inventor Jovan Pulitzer revealed dominion machines set to be used in the key election seem to be connected to a vendor in China.
This followed Pulitzer’s Wednesday testimony before the Georgia Senate Judiciary subcommittee when he demonstrated his ability to connect a dominion voting machine to the internet. This came despite claims by state election officials that the electronic voting machines do not connect to the web.(Tweet)

Many commentators on various sites (including AT) have weighed in, some expressing hope, while other have expressed doubt Pence would do the right thing.But it appears all of this is moot, as Bill Jacobson, founder of Legal Insurrection writes: A claim has circulated widely in the past few days that Vice President Mike Pence, as President of the Senate, has the power and discretion to reject certifications.

Democrats are outraged that Republicans are planning on objecting to the certification of electoral votes. It’s “conspiracy and fantasy,” says Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. “The effort by the sitting President of the United States to overturn the results is patently undemocratic,” the New York Democrat said. “The effort by others to amplify and burnish his ludicrous claims of fraud is equally revolting.”“This is America. We have elections. We have results.

The local government in south-central Konya, Turkey, announced this week that it would turn a fully renovated 19th-century Armenian church into a “humor art house” after barring worshippers from using the church for years, multiple reports revealed Thursday.
Under Islamist President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the Turkish government has aggressively targeted its Christian minority community and attempted to erase Christian heritage in the country. Erdogan’s most prominent attempt to erase the Christian history of Turkey occurred last year, when he converted the Hagia Sophia, one of Byzantine Christianity’s most important architectural facilities, into a mosque. The conversion process involved removing or covering up priceless Christian art in the former basilica.

Last year had some seriously reel effects on the movie industry. Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic—and at a time when many movie theaters weren’t open—North American box offices are anticipated to hit a shocking new low. Following five years of annual ticket sales in excess of $11 billion, they’re expected to reach just $2.3 billion this year, the Associated Press reported. That’s not only down 80 percent from 2019, according to data firm Comscore, but also an almost 40-year low, the AP notes.

Proposed changes to the rules of the House of Representatives would “honor all gender identities” by eliminating such specific terms as mother and father, son and daughter, and aunt and uncle.
Instead, only gender-neutral terms such as “parent,” “child,” “sibling” and “parent’s sibling” would be allowed in the text of the House rules, according to the proposed changes.
The proposed changes — which also include the establishment of a House “Office of Diversity and Inclusion” — will be voted on after the House convenes Sunday for the new 117th Congress.
Another rules change would prevent Republicans from amending a bill at the last minute, the Washington Examiner reported.

I’d love to see President Trump somehow get a second term. He’s done a lot of good, I voted for him twice, I actively campaigned for him and I predicted he’d win.
But I see now – in fact, I’ve seen for over a month – that due to a combination of bad luck on COVID, bad campaigning, bad personality and bad fraud, he won’t serve a second term after all.
I’m disappointed, but that doesn’t make me a traitor. I have not turned against Trump, but simply recognized that he has lost.
Manifesting my disappointment through denial and fantasy will not help.

The Senate voted to override President Donald Trump’s veto of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for 2021.
The upper house on Friday afternoon passed the bill without the president’s signature with an 80–13 vote—the first time a Trump veto has been overridden. The debate over the bill was ended earlier in the day with the same result.
Thirteen senators voted to sustain Trump’s veto of the bill, including Republicans Ted Cruz (R-Texas), Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), Mike Braun (R-Ind.), Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), Mike Lee (R-Utah), and John Kennedy (R-La.).

The crowd convened around 7:45 p.m. near Chapman Square downtown, the heart of protests that raged in the city throughout 2020. Portland police said at least two Molotov cocktails were thrown and commercial-grade fireworks were launched at the federal courthouse and Justice Center, which some rioters attempted to break into. The crowd also set multiple fires and chucked rocks, bricks and frozen water bottles at officers from the Federal Protective Services and Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office.

The bill combines $2,000 payments with a repeal of Section 230, a provision that grants social media companies liability protections against content users post on their platforms, and the establishment of a commission to study allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 election.
Though Democrats supported President Donald Trump’s push for $2,000 checks, they have opposed his efforts to abolish Section 230 and investigate his allegations of fraud, giving McConnell’s bill little chance of becoming law

According to many sources, including now some Pennsylvania lawmakers, the state’s election results are off by upwards of 200,000 votes — more than enough to flip the commonwealth to President Trump.
The claim in question is not, as a common misunderstanding goes, that “there were more votes than registered voters in Penn.” Rather, it is that there were more votes than voters in the November contest.
Now the state GOP is wondering “how the results of the presidential election could possibly have been certified by Secretary of the Commonwealth Kathy Boockvar and Governor Tom Wolf,” as State Representative Russ Diamond puts it (tweet below).

Streets that are normally jam-packed with revelers partying to ring in the new year were abandoned as the nation's largest city was a virtual ghost town on the last night of a dismal 2020.Further contributing to the dystopian appearance of the Democrats' brave new world was the trotting out of the Bidens on national television in a propaganda exercise that one would expect in North Korea or some other totalitarian country but not in America.

Analyst and cybersecurity expert, Jovan Pulitzer, demonstrated the vulnerability of the Dominion Voting Systems machines by connecting them to WIFI and establishing a two-way communication from the polling station in the voting center.Pulitzer said:“At this very moment at a polling location in the county, not only do we have access through the devices to the poll pad–the system, but WE ARE IN."“And it’s not supposed to have WiFi and that’s not supposed to be able to happen so we’ve documented now it’s communicating two ways in real time, meaning it’s receiving data and sending data — should never happen, shouldn’t be WiFi, we’ve now documented it in real time.

Attorney General William Barr’s December 23 resignation caught many in the tech accountability movement by surprise.
Barr was a driving force behind the Justice Department's landmark Google antitrust suit in October. His departure has understandably raised questions about the future of the department’s second antitrust investigation against Google.(snip) supporters of the cause need to get as much as they can done now before it’s too late.
Thankfully for their sake, the Trump DoJ remains in good hands and is unlikely to take its foot off the gas in its final few weeks on the job.

Photos of the festivities show some revelers wearing masks and little to no social distancing as they released balloons into the air at Hankow Customs House building—a popular New Year’s Eve spot in Wuhan, according to Reuters.
Police were seen trying to control the crowds and even urged people without masks to put one on if they wanted to continue the celebration, the outlet reported. The festivities come a year after the World Health Organization

As President Donald Trump returned to Washington D.C. amid his ongoing battle with Congress, his friends and family members gathered at his Mar-a-Lago estate for his annual New Year's Eve gala. Trump and First Lady Melania were forced to forgo the festivities on Thursday to resolve the highly-anticipated COVID relief bill in Washington, but still hosted hundreds of guests at the Palm Beach resort. Other members of the Trump clan were seen dressed to the nines as they gathered at the opulent ballroom to ring in the new year.
Earlier in the evening, the president's eldest son Donald Trump Jr, who turned 43 today, and girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle shared

The police chief who stood back and did nothing as Black Lives Matter activists ripped down a historic statue in Bristol, England, during lockdown has received a medal in the New Year Honours. Superintendent Andy Bennet was in charge of the response—or non-response—to BLM activists pouring into the streets of Bristol despite a national lockdown to topple a 125-year-old bronze of Edward Colston (1636–1721), a figure once revered as a great Christian philanthropist responsible for endowing many almshouses, schools, and other charitable organisation who has since been transformed into a hate figure for his then-unremarkable business links to the slave trade.

Dinesh D’Souza points out: “the GOP establishment must recognize there is no way forward without the Trump voters, and the Trump voters demand a challenge of the election results.” I would slightly disagree with the party linguistics, but essentially D’Souza has a point. Unfortunately, the GOPe doesn’t care. (Video) Also unfortunately the un-discussed aspect is the unity pact between both wings of the UniParty bird. The GOPe wants elimination of “Trump” supporters in exactly the same way the GOP wanted, and orchestrated, the elimination of the Tea Party.If America-First or “MAGA” ideology is the Republican brand, that means the elimination (ie. lots of republicans being primaried)

(Tweet) On Wednesday, several witnesses came forward during a hearing. They presented both photo and video evidence of rampant fraud. Republican poll watchers also claim they got locked out of the counting stations when it came time to look over military ballots, which typically lean red.

Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden’s transition team continues to accuse members of the Trump administration of not cooperating, even as those same members keep arguing that the complaints from Biden’s team are bullschiff. The latest complaint comes courtesy Yohannes Abraham, the executive director of Biden’s transition team, and marked the third time this week alone that someone on the transition team has complained about the Trump administration.During a virtual briefing with reporters Wednesday, Abraham said his officials “have encountered obstruction from political leadership at various agencies, most notably at the Department of Defense and the Office of Management and Budget.”

You’ve gotten the memo from the leftist chin-strokers on social media. It’s simple. You’re insane for questioning the 2020 presidential election result. Joe Biden is the president-elect so you just run along and ignore the copious news stories about election fraud and get over it. Man up!Political titans on Capitol Hill look visibly concerned when asked by MSM reporters about the president and his millions of voters who aren’t convinced that this election wasn’t filled with fraud.The party of Governor Stacey Abrams, President Hillary Clinton, and “Joe Biden should not concede under any circumstances” dares to point the magenta cat-toy-feather-wand of shame at Republicans

At the end of his second term, amid the early retrospectives about his presidency, George W. Bush reportedly remarked, “the true history of my administration will be written 50 years from now.” It was a wise reminder that the passage of time generally yields a more honest, dispassionate analysis of events than is often allowed by the heated political present.While we are left to wonder how history will judge the last four years of President Trump, it will hopefully be with more fairness than the often-unhinged levels of coverage he’s received to date. Yet as the nation’s self-appointed purveyors of truth dutifully tap out their think pieces
