America as a $295 billion trade deficit with China, but the bigger problem may be the technological imbalance between what we are importing and what they are exporting. It's not just the trade deficit with China, it's the technological trade deficit. The majority of our exports to China are raw products like petroleum and soybeans, the two largest categories being exported, while the majority of China’s exports to the United States are manufactured products like computers and other technical equipment. We send corn and sorghum to China, they ship us back batteries and toys. We sell them coal and ores, they sell us circuit boards and car parts. We ship them tanned hides and meat, and then receive back optical fibers and medical equipment. Advanced societies buy raw resources from backward societies and sell them back the manufactured goods. We export scrap metal to China, they send us back steel. We send them scrap copper, they ship us back the equipment of which that copper is ...

“I’ve had someone say to me, ‘Let’s not forget what Hollywood is made up of. Be careful,’” Guy Pearce told a Jewish writer at  Vanity Fair  in response to a question about his attacks on Israel. In an industry where talent has been cancelled for the most minor perceived offenses against political correctness, Pearce’s remarks went unnoticed and he was rewarded with an Oscar nomination for playing an antisemite on screen in  The Brutalist  and in real life. Contrast that with the backlash against ‘Karla Sofia’ Gascon, starring in  Emilia Perez , the Oscar frontrunner, over old Spanish-language tweets speaking out against Black Lives Matter and Islam, which he has already apologized for several times. Pearce’s friend was wrong. He had nothing to worry about from Hollywood. Jews however have plenty to worry about from Hollywood as the Oscar nominations once again show. The Brutalist,  a fictional exploitation of an equally fictional Holocaust survivor oppresse...

Duluth, Minnesota, a place that most liberals agreed was too white, finally made history when the otherwise boring 87% white city elected its first Muslim lesbian councilwoman. Azrin Awal, a Bangladeshi immigrant, moved to Duluth to attend the University of Minnesota, got a degree in gender and sexuality studies, co-founded the local NAACP chapter (despite not being black) was part of the Muslim Students Association and decided to run for public office because Duluth was Islamophobic and needed to fundamentally change to suit her tastes. And that’s after only being there for 5 years. But they were busy years in which the Bangladeshi immigrant claimed that she was a victim of Islamophobia because she had been called a ‘terrorist’ and had a hijab snatched from her head. Also she came out as ‘queer’ and her pronouns are either “She/They” or “She/Them/Theirs”. She took part in ‘drag shows’ and discussions about ‘Islamophobia’, telling students that “Islam means peace”, but not telling them...

New disclosures reveal that Special Counsel Jack Smith, tasked with taking down Trump at any cost, received $140,000 in pro bono legal services from Covington & Burling. Covington & Burling, the prominent D.C. law firm, was Biden’s campaign counsel. While six figures in free legal aid might seem like a lot of money, C & B’s lawyers had contributed $657,924 to the Kamala campaign and $262,171 to the DNC. But that was a drop in the bucket compared to the $737,000 that it was paid for its services by the Biden campaign and the $4.5 million that the law firm had been paid by the DNC. The $140,000 was easily ‘paid for’ by the lucrative economic relationship that Covington & Burling enjoyed with the Biden campaign and the Democratic party during the 2024 election. The six figure support for Smith can be viewed as part of C & B’s work for the campaign. And Jack Smith’s campaign to take down Trump, like the Steele dossier and the Mueller investigation, should be seen as t...

After Hamas paraded the coffins of 9-month-old Kfir and 4-year-old Ariel to the cheers and jeers of its supporters, before turning over the coffins, locked with keys that did not fit to Israel, people looked for something to restore their faith in the goodness of mankind in the Muslim world. Millions thought they found it in fake quotes from the grand muftis of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. “What we say today in Gaza is a disgrace to Islam, an act of blasphemy against Allah,” Saudi Grand Mufti Abdulaziz bin Abdullah Al-Sheikh (pictured above) reportedly claimed in one viral social media post. “Hamas has brought shame to Islam on a level never seen before,” Grand Mufti of Dubai Ahmed al-Haddad allegedly proclaimed. Photos of the two Islamic religious leaders illustrated with these quotes racked up millions of views on social media. Some even found their way into news stories sourced from social media. The problem was that the quotes were fake and never existed outside social media. The Sau...
