[SEGMENT 2-1] Democrats backing away from stupidity 3 Congratulations Americans, Patriots. Why am I congratulating you? Because YOU forced Democrats to regain part of their sanity. I'm not sure what step this is in the 12-step program, perhaps Step 12, but it's coming. I've NEVER seen an administration so decisive in its actions. The people being selected know their jobs. And they are already making an impact. The FBI is running scared. I saw that McCabe hates that Kash Patel has been picked to run the FBI. In any other Democratic circles, this pick would be heralded. An Indian running the FBI. He has to be the first, right? But no hoopla. And Vivek Ramaswamy co-chairing DOGE with Elon Musk. Another first for many reasons, but no hoopla over it. And while we will soon feel the effects of the Trump economy first-hand and in a great way, the most impactful to date involves illegal immigration.[SEGMENT 2-2] Democrats backing away from stupidity 4 Remember when Johnston compared his city's commitment to protecting illegal immigrants to the iconic “Tank Man” moment during the Tiananmen Square protests? With zero irony, he boasted about deploying 50,000 angry soccer moms to protect migrants from deportation. “It's like the Tiananmen Square moment with the rose and the gun, right?” he gushed. This was the same guy who told federal immigration officials, “More than us having DPD stationed at the county line to keep them out, you'd have every one of those Highland moms who came out for the migrants.” His bravado didn't last long. President Trump's border czar, Tom Homan, responded with a mic drop: CNN's Kasie Hunt visibly stunned after playing a clip of Tom Homan saying he would gladly throw Denver Mayor Mike Johnston in jail for defying Trump's deportation operation. This is the best video you will watch all day. Homan: Me and the Denver mayor agree on one thing. He's… pic.twitter.com/ab4XMw5GrK — Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) November 28, 2024 “He's willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put him in jail.” Now that reality has set in, Johnston is singing a different tune. He's gone from "Come get me, Bro!" to "Don't taze me, Bro!" With Denver's resources drained and voters increasingly restless, the mayor's focus has shifted from grandstanding to damage control. Funny how that works. Now that Tom Homan has threatened to throw Democrat Denver Mayor Mike Johnston in prison, he says he ”regrets” making tough guy comments about having his police force stand against federal forces to stop mass deportations “I certainly did not mean to stoke fear on either side of… pic.twitter.com/tB2yfn8csM — Wall Street Apes (@WallStreetApes) November 29, 2024 REPORTER: It sounds like you're walking back the comments from a couple days ago saying that you would be willing to send Denver police officers. Do you regret making those comments and now getting questions like this? JOHNSTON: Yeah. REPORTER: Me asking you about that, and I'm sure Denver police officers are now going home to their families and saying, "Hey, I hear the mayor is telling you that you might be deployed to face off against federal forces." Do you regret making those comments? JOHNSTON: Yeah. What I wanted people to understand was the scale of what could be coming if we take the president at his word, which is I don't think anyone envisioned U.S. military troops being deployed to American streets to gather up women and children. [SEGMENT 2-3] Democrats backing away from stupidity 5 Give me your Leftist position and I will show you multiple Democrats who are backing away from Biden administration policies. It's almost as if Democrats were PRAYING for somebody to bring back sanity. Talk about backtracking. But Johnston made the right decision. Because the Trump administration is serious about enforcing the laws. And if it means locking up a few hard asses, then so be it. Sanctuary cities like Denver operate in open defiance of federal immigration laws. The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act (IIRIRA) of 1996 expressly prohibits policies that block local officials from cooperating with federal immigration enforcement. Despite this, Leftist mayors nationwide have flaunted sanctuary policies, betting that the Biden administration's Department of Justice would look the other way. But under Trump, that bet didn't pay off. His administration cracked down on sanctuary jurisdictions, threatening to withhold federal funding and enforce existing laws. This enforcement resonated with voters who saw sanctuary policies as a betrayal of their safety and sovereignty. Why Voters Backed Trump—and Why They'll Do It Again Trump's appeal in 2016 and beyond wasn't just about “building the wall.” It was about rejecting Leftist policies that prioritize illegal immigrants over American citizens. Sanctuary cities like Denver epitomize the broader Democratic Party's indifference to working-class Americans. When voters in Colorado and across the country see their tax dollars funding migrant shelters while their own communities crumble, it's no wonder they rally behind someone promising to put America first. Sanctuary City Spectacle: Comedy, Tragedy, or Both? The Democrats' immigration debacle is a tragicomedy of errors. Sanctuary policies like those in Denver don't just fail—they spectacularly implode, leaving taxpayers holding the bag. Johnston's flip-flop from “Tiananmen Square defender” to reluctant realist underscores the absurdity of it all. At the end of the day, Johnston and his ilk are a symptom of a larger problem: a political party more interested in virtue signaling than governance. Illegal immigration is not a crisis of compassion; it's a crisis of competence. And as long as Leftists continue to prioritize their progressive agenda over the rule of law, cities like Denver will remain stuck cleaning up the mess. Thankfully for Denverites, Coloradans, and all Americans, this nonsense is about to come to a necessary and hopefully final end. Dallas Mayor changes to MAGA Admittedly I treat these flip-floppers with skepticism. It's easy to abandon something when you see that it's a loser. And the Democrats as a party are losers. Still, the fundamental principles should preclude a switch. Take me for example. I can't stand the Republican Party. But I have never abandoned them, for three reasons. One, the Democrats are f'g crazy. Two, Republicans freed the slaves. Three, as Trump proved, Republicans are redeemable. Perhaps that why Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson flipped as well. He left the Democratic Party last fall. And some say that Johnson's departure should have served as an early warning for Democrats. Early? Democrats should have seen this coming since 2016. Many political pundits were stunned when President-elect Donald Trump led Republicans to sweeping wins earlier this month, breaking apart traditionally Democratic coalitions to clinch a second term and secure majorities in the House and Senate. The red wave didn't shock Johnson, however, who said during a Fox and Friends appearance this week that “it turns out I was kind of a canary in the coal mine.” “I didn't think I was going to be some anomaly that everyone needed to worry about,” he said. “I thought that I was going to be a harbinger of things to come.” On Fox & Friends @Johnson4Dallas discussed how @GOP mayors across the country are excited to work with @realDonaldTrump to deliver on the promise of making our cities great again. pic.twitter.com/BsMaQuJbNg — Republican Mayors Association (@GOPMayorsAssn) November 20, 2024 Johnson governed one of the largest cities in the country as a Democrat for over four years before shocking colleagues by joining Trump's MAGA movement. Citing desires to use conservative principles to restore urban centers like his own back to glory, the mayor said that too often, Democratic policies “exacerbate homelessness, coddle criminals, and make it harder for ordinary people to make a living.” In the months leading up to the election, Trump received sharp criticism for saying Democrats had destroyed former manufacturing bastions and big cities like Detroit and Milwaukee.

The only reason you take somebody behind somewhere to fight is if you're afraid of getting your butt kicked. I remember as a kid, a big guy in Jr. High wanted to fight me at lunch, and said let's meet at the back of the building. I said, “I'm fighting you in the front of the building so everybody can see you get your butt kicked. There will be more than ONE version of the story, and the PEOPLE will decided.

You are supposed to forget Tank Man. It's A true story that many have never heard – but everyone should have. A story that stirs up disagreement, controversy, and conspiracy theories. A story where much of the truth has been lost. Because that's the way they want it. You've heard of Batman, Superman, Ant-Man, Spider-Man, Iron Man, and several other mythical superheroes who have appeared in popular culture for almost a century now. They began their lives as comic book hero's, and went on to great acclaim at Hollywood box office. Each in their own way are principled folks who fight for truth, justice, … and the American way. But, none of them are real. Tank man on the other hand… he's for real, but nobody knows who the heck he is. We don't even know if he is still alive. And strangely, tank man, if he is still alive, probably has no idea what an impact his example has had around the world.

"This is the hard part about being intensive: that people have told us all our lives that we're dangerous. And mostly, I will tell you that we are not. That we just need to find the right structures. But the size of our emotional experience means that sometimes we can push ourselves over the edge."Grief is enormous. And there is a lot to grieve. And, as intensives, our ways of expressing grief are often unwelcome (at best) in an expansive culture. How do we honor the intensity of our grief, and process it. And also- how do we remember that we can do that, and so much else, in a community? How do we let others take up our burdens so that we can grieve and rest? And how do we take up those burdens for others? As usual, we will look for answers in community, in relationship, and in the earth. And let's also talk about how to keep our grief from harming us, physically. Because there is a shade of truth in phrases like 'my stomach is tied up into knots." And that truth can be very painful indeed.Relevant Links:About the Tank Man from Tiananmen Square: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_ManLeela's Substack!

Recognizing that the future is uncertain isn't a sign of paranoia. As Brandon Smith explains, it's a chance to use your situational awareness to shore up your personal preparedness for whatever may come. Convenience may well prove to be our undoing as a nation, especially when it comes to how we seek to stay informed. J.B. Shurk describes how today's journalists seek power, not truth. It used to be that the right credentials could open just about any door. Rob Jenkins says the collapse of credentialism could spell the end of our American technocracy. Here's a new word to add to your lexicon: Verbicide. Jeff Minnick shares some timely examples of how manipulators are murdering the meaning of words in order to consolidate power over us.

We met with photographer and podcaster Frederick Van Johnson to learn about the latest developments in photography and philosophize with him about the outsized role it plays in our evolving world. Van Johnson contends that photos like Jeff Widener's 1989 shot of Tank Man in Tiananmen Square have always had the power to communicate immense meaning in the glance of an eye. A photo can tell a story and can change minds. Advancements in photography are expanding access to the stories that need to be told. And yet, a photo is half the capture of the image, and half the "“performance" of modifying the image to tell the stories that want to be seen and heard. Can we assume that any photo today reflects the "truth?" No. But this science fiction future need not be doom and gloom if we are solving for humans and trying to make the world better for humans. AI and technology advancement is not a zero sum game. It is always changing and growing, as are we. The key is to see where things are going and press forward smartly to take advantage of the bigger "wrenches" that are now within reach. We can do more with less, and live more meaningful, human lives. Join us.

Hello, world! This is the Global Media & Communication podcast series. In this episode, our host Ignatius Suglo discusses the book Made in Censorship: The Tiananmen Movement in Chinese Literature and Film (Columbia University Press, 2022) by Thomas Chen. You'll hear about: Author's intellectual and professional trajectory that led him to the book; How to study Tiananmen Movement as a media event through a careful selection of literature and film materials; How to think of the productivity of silence and absence; The use of “positive energy” in mobilizing censorship; Human labor and the idea of “workshop” in the work of censorship; How iconic images such as “Tank Man” have been interpreted and appropriated; The role played by women in social movements and their representations in post-1989 China; The emergence of Internet in the 1990s and the paradoxical nature of “Internet sovereignty”; Author's positionality and reflection on writing the book. About the book The violent suppression of the 1989 Tiananmen Square demonstrations is thought to be contemporary China's most taboo subject. Yet despite sweeping censorship, Chinese culture continues to engage with the history, meaning, and memory of the Tiananmen movement. Made in Censorship examines the surprisingly rich corpus of Tiananmen literature and film produced in mainland China since 1989, both officially sanctioned and unauthorized, contending that censorship does not simply forbid—it also shapes what is created.

Sometimes the catalyst that drives an epiphany is almost accidental, yet can bring out the very best in people, and puts them on the course to what they are sure is their true purpose. For Dr. Wen Chen, her awakening happened after a conversation with one of her colleagues regarding the events of Tiananmen Square, in 1989. Until that conversation, she believed the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) line; that nothing much had happened, and the students and people were the ones who attacked the soldiers. After seeing the videos, she realized all she had been told had been a lie, investigated further and discovered the limitless deceit and corruption of the CCP.She simply could not do nothing. After learning the truth - experiencing a kind of "awakening" - Dr. Chen is now actively educating people about the real conditions and practices in today's China. Claremont Speaks was fortunate to have Dr. Chen tell her story to this point, then discuss the state of the situation in China today and the CCP's goals for the future. Anyone who believes communism is, somehow, the better system, owes it to themselves to listen to Dr. Chen's recounting of the unbridled evil - murder for profit - which is conducted daily by the CCP. Conservative estimates are that upward of 80 million lives have been taken by harvesting organs, which are then provided to the CCP's elite or sold to wealthy transplant patients in China, the US and around the world.Dr. Chen has much more to tell, and Claremont Speaks would like to have her back. She asked that listeners suggest what they would like to know about the real China, which will be the topic for her next visit.

The Tiananmen Square massacre in Beijing, China in 1989 is one of the most important, noteworthy tragedies in modern Chinese history. It was the biggest protest against communism rule in over sixty years. But thanks to the consistent suppression and propaganda of the modern Chinese government… many if not most Chinese citizens today...don't even know it ever happened. Why is the communist regime in charge of China so insistent on erasing the history of this event? What IS the history of this event? I learned so much about communist China's history this week and now really fully understand why the Tiananmen Square protests occurred, and why they were violently ended. I hope you learn a bunch too and get some laughs in as well. Hail Nimrod! Wet Hot Bad Magic Summer Camps are ON SALE!

In een land dat in zijn 3500-jarige geschiedenis nog nooit één dag vrijheid heeft gekend, is het extra dapper om te doen wat in een democratie een grondrecht is: demonstreren. Petje af, dus, voor de Chinezen die de moed hebben om versoepeling van de absurde coronaregels te eisen. In zo'n 15 steden zijn inmiddels enkele tienduizenden mensen de straat op gegaan, met een onvermijdelijk gevolg: hard politieoptreden en het blokkeren van verzamelpunten. Om de demonstraties voor te stellen als bedreigend voor de regering, of zelfs een mogelijke opstap naar de val van Xi Jinping, is wensdenken. Van een opstand, zoals in het verleden, is geen sprake. Er zijn wel wat demonstranten die anti-Xi teksten scanderen, maar de meeste mensen zijn vooral woedend omdat ze nu al drie jaar van de ene totale lockdown in de andere gaan. Aanleiding was de brand in een flatgebouw, waarbij tien mensen omkwamen omdat ze als ratten in een coronaval zaten. Anders was het in 2019 en 2020 in Hong Kong, en in 1989 in Peking, toen demonstraties uitmondden in opstanden. Hong Kong, met zijn status aparte, had de ijdele hoop in vrijheid te kunnen doorleven, totdat China een zogenoemde ‘nationale veiligheidswet' en een ‘uitwijzingswet' oplegde, waarmee de schijndemocratie in de stadstaat door de mand viel. Ruim een miljoen mensen namen deel aan de opstand, 10.000 werden gearresteerd. Het is niets vergeleken met de Tiananmen-opstand van 1989, vereeuwigd in het iconische beeld van een man in een wit overhemd, in elke hand een boodschappentas, die voor de colonne tanks stond die het Plein van de Hemelse Vrede oprolden. Dat was op 5 juni, de derde dag van een ware slachtpartij door het leger onder de opstandelingen. Hier ging het om veel meer. Partijleider Deng Xiaoping had de economie geliberaliseerd, maar niet de persoonlijke vrijheden. Binnen de partij woedde daarover een fel debat, met Hu Yaobang als voorman van de liberale vleugel. Toen die in het voorjaar van 1989 overleed, demonstreerden op de dag van zijn begrafenis tienduizenden jonge Chinezen voor vrijheid van meningsuiting en persvrijheid. In de dagen en weken erna, trokken ze met bijna een miljoen deelnemers naar Tiananmen. Het zou waarschijnlijk aan de aandacht van de wereld zijn ontsnapt, als midden mei niet toevallig Sovjetleider Gorbatsjov op staatsbezoek was gekomen, met in zijn kielzog journalisten uit de hele wereld, met camera's en straalverbindingen. Er waren nog geen sociale media, maar wel CNN en de BBC met live beelden. Zo werd de ‘Tank Man' wereldnieuws. Hoeveel mensen er bij de opstand zijn omgekomen weet niemand. De Britse ambassadeur, Alan Donald, hield het op 10.000. ‘Tank Man' verdween, niemand weet wat er van hem is geworden. Van de huidige demonstranten zullen we evenmin nog wat horen. Zo gaat dat, in een land dat in zijn 3500-jarige bestaan nog nooit één dag vrijheid heeft gekend.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In 1989, Beijing's Tiananmen Square became the focus of large-scale demonstrations as mostly young students crowded into central Beijing to protest for greater democracy. On June 4, 1989, Chinese troops stormed through Tiananmen Square, firing into the crowds of protesters. The events produced one of the most iconic photos of the 20th century - of ‘Tank Man,' an unidentified protester who stood in front of a line of army tanks.Louisa Lim is an award-winning journalist who grew up in Hong Kong and reported from China for a decade. Louisa joins Dan on the podcast to discuss what led to the protests and how they grew, the turmoil that ensued and why the events remain a highly sensitive topic in China.Produced by Hannah WardMixed and Mastered by Dougal PatmoreIf you'd like to learn more, we have hundreds of history documentaries, ad-free podcasts and audiobooks at History Hit - subscribe to History Hit today!To download the History Hit app please go to the Android or Apple store.

Inspired by the iconic image of a man blocking tanks in Tiananmen Square in 1989, Robert Anthony Peters produced the short film Tank Man. As the Vice-Chairman of the Fully Informed Jury Association Robert works to educate people about jurors’ rights and responsibility to exercise jury nullification.

Resistance is the refusal to accept or comply with something forced upon an individual or group of people, usually by political or military forces. At its core, it is any action that rejects oppression and subjugation and chooses instead to fight for liberty and self-determination. One of modern history's most striking examples of resistance is the image of a young Chinese man standing in the way of a column of tanks in Beijing's Tiananmen Square. In this episode, we will tell the story of how this man's solitary action became the most recognizable symbol of resistance in modern history. Hosted by Jamie Adams.
When Robert Anthony Peters tried to screen his short film, Tank Man, at various events and film festivals in the United States, he learned that the chilling effect emanating from Beijing is strong more than three decades after a lone anonymous man stood down tanks in Tiananmen Square.

This week on Reb and Rob with Truth and History, the two reflect on Joe Biden's first 100 days in office and how the policies he continues to put in place are slowly eroding our great Nation. Also discussing: law enforcement in America - and a time when "Senator Joe Biden" was calling Bobby daily for updates on Law Enforcement Training overseas (ironic). Lastly, do you remember the Tank Man in Tiananmen Square? Reb and Rob leave you with a story to remind you of liberty and freedom.
A conversation with Jeff Widener, formerly a Southeast Asia photo editor for the Associated Press, who took the most widely circulated, famous version of the "Tank Man" photo: a picture of the anonymous Chinese man who stood in front of a line of tanks entering Beijing during the Tiananmen Square protests on June 5, 1989.

On this episode of the Resistance Library Podcast Dan and Sam discuss the iconic “Tank Man” and the Tiananmen Square Massacre as well as the recent Hong Kong protests. China is often described as the next superpower to top America within the next few decades. At first glance, such an assertion makes sense. The country's vast geography, natural resources, rich history, and tech-savvy populace puts it in a position to thrive in the 21st century. However, China's rise as a superpower is not one of an overnight success, nor is it filled with pretty rainbows. Indeed, China is one of the world's longest lasting civilizations, with cultural and political traditions that have been passed down to succeeding generations effortlessly. With such a vast history, China had gone through its own zeniths and nadirs. As is the nature of any civilization. However, China's modern history has been a rollercoaster ride to say the least. Despite having a massive formal governing apparatus that would put many empires to shame, China has not always had full control of its territorial jurisdiction. Once European powers reached Chinese shores in search of riches, they soon wanted their piece of pie. That meant slowly whittling away at Chinese territory. As the first movers in the Age of Exploration, the Portuguese and their missionaries colonized Macau. Although the Portuguese's venture was not exclusively about riches, it inspired other European actors such as the British to go and exploit China's vast resources. Naturally, the Qing dynasty and Britain's interests clashed once the British wanted to expand trade inside the country. What was originally a trade dispute between a Qing government wanting to maintain trade that overwhelmingly favored China, soon turned into a full-blown conflict as seen in the Opium War. China was handed a humiliating defeat, which saw it turn over Hong Kong to the British. This marked a turning point in Chinese history. The once mighty country slowly deteriorated both internally and externally. China soon became a punching bag for smaller, yet more militarily advanced countries that started setting up trading outposts in Shanghai. Indeed, these moves were not welcome by the Chinese and many in the Qing court, but due to the country's decaying institutions, it could do nothing to prevent further predations. Even empires on the Western periphery, like Imperial Russia, started to prey on China when it annexed all of the Chinese land north of the Amur River in 1858, exploiting Chinese weakness along a border that was, at the time, 4,650 miles long. As if China's foreign reversals weren't enough, Imperial Japan also jumped in the mix and picked apart China like other European powers. Japan put the world on notice when it crushed China in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894. As a result of this humiliation, Japan added the island of modern-day Taiwan, the Liaodong Peninsula, and the Korean peninsula into its sphere of influence. Japan's exploitation of its weaker mainland rival did not stop there. Even after the Qing dynasty collapsed, nationalist leader Chiang Kai-Shek tried to put the political pieces back together during the 1920s, in an attempt to unify the country and restore Chinese greatness. However, Imperial Japan was ready to humiliate China yet again, when it invaded Manchuria in 1931, and occupied it until 1945, in an attempt to expand their industrialization efforts.
