How the Biden Admin Helped a Public University Partner With a CCP-Controlled School
Biden’s National Science Foundation funds University of Virginia partnership with military-tied Tsinghua University
The Biden administration is using taxpayer cash to fund a University of Virginia climate change partnership with a Chinese Communist Party-controlled school that conducts research for China’s military.
President Joe Biden’s National Science Foundation last year awarded more than $130,000 to the University of Virginia to conduct climate change research with Beijing-based Tsinghua University, federal spending disclosures show. Tsinghua University, which counts Chinese president Xi Jinping among its alumni, will work with University of Virginia researchers to chart the global “transition to a low-carbon economy,” according to the grant description.

DeSantis Talks China, Russia, Trump With Piers Morgan
Recently FL Gov. Ron DeSantis sat down with Piers Morgan for a lengthy interview which drops at Fox Nation on Thursday. Bits of it have been hitting the internet throughout much of the day on Wednesday, but in the evening Fox News released some interesting foreign policy comments.
The governor began talking foreign policy, which is not something he has addressed extensively.
DeSantis on China
Apparently Ron DeSantis isn’t the soft isolationist that some Republicans would want him to be. In fact, he told Morgan that Taiwan is of “critical interest” to the United States.
“And if China did invade Taiwan?” Morgan asked.
He replied:
That would be aggression. Absolutely would be aggression.

Hiding in Plain Sight: Jeanette Jennings and Transgender Munchausen by Proxy
Megan Fox of PJM has a rather too-detailed-for-comfort story about the tragic reality TV star “Jazz” (née Jared) Jennings. Let’s just say that the poster girl for transgenderism, who first appeared on the cable show I Am Jazz at age 14, is not happy with the results of his/“her” transition.
Really, there was no precedent for what was done to this child, except perhaps the experiments of Doctor Mengele. The use of so-called “puberty blockers” (synthetic hormones) at an early age to prevent the normal process of maturation — well, who had ever heard of such thing? Undergoing “gender reassignment” surgery at age 17 — gosh, what could possibly go wrong? Trust me, you don’t want to know the answer.

A Professor Abandoning A Spouse And Kids For A College Student Isn’t Brave, But Wicked
Society used to agree that someone like Agnes Callard, who divorced her husband to marry her student, should be shamed, not exalted.
Can a professor’s affair with a student diagnose what ails our culture? When that professor gets a celebratory profile in The New Yorker, the answer is, a resounding — and depressing — yes.
Agnes Callard is a married University of Chicago professor who left her husband for a male student, divorcing the former and marrying the latter. As Callard reported the affair to the administration before they had a chance to investigate, the celebrated philosopher managed to keep her tenured position.

Could The Trump Grand Jury Fail To Indict Him?
With the grand jury being cancelled Wednesday, something funny could be going on
LARRY KUDLOW: Alvin Bragg is in danger of being overruled by his own grand jury
As you know by now, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg cancelled the grand jury meeting that was scheduled to take place today in New York, was expected to hear from at least one additional final witness and many thought would announce an indictment of former President Donald Trump.
Now, Bragg, of course, is a renegade, left-wing radical DA, the author of no-bail, no jail, soft-on-crime policies in New York City backed by the far-left George Soros. (snip)
