Ex Navy Seal Erik Prince Predicts China Will ‘Take Taiwan’ in Spring 2024.

Former U.S. Navy Seal Erik Prince predicts China may “take Taiwan in spring 2024”. His statement follows Chinese President Xi Jinping declaring his intention to unify Taiwan with mainland China. Prince anticipates a potential move in May or June 2024, due to favorable weather conditions during these months.

“The weather window if they are going to do something by force in Taiwan opens around May or June because during most of the months of the year, it’s too windy,” Prince explained.

“If they are going to take Taiwan by force I would predict that they are going to do something this spring.”

Prince also offered his perspective on the state of NATO, which has depleted much of its resources equipping Ukraine since 2022. He said former president Donald Trump had been “absolutely right” to criticize its European members for neglecting defense and relying on America to do all the heavy lifting.

“President Trump was right to complain about NATO not paying their share. I think it’s only five or six of the 28 countries that are members that still pay 2 per cent of their GDP in defense,” he said.

“A huge amount of defense stocks have been transferred from those NATO countries to Ukraine and have been consumed in the battlefield. They haven’t been replaced yet and so Europe has a bit of a wake-up call. They need to crank up that industrial base,” he warned.

1 in 10 Dems, 1 in 5 Young Americans Have Positive View of Bin Laden.

Gen Z appears to be warming to the late Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, with a new poll finding that 20 percent of those aged between 18 and 29 had a ‘positive’ or ‘somewhat positive’ view of the jihadi boss. The 9/11 terror attacks, orchestrated by bin Laden, killed 2,977 victims in New York City, Northern Virginia, and Pennsylvania. Thousands more were injured.

In addition to the disconcerting level of acceptance among Gen Z, bin Laden also enjoys a ‘positive’ or ‘somewhat positive’ view among one in 10 Democrats – raising concerns that some elements of the Democrat base have been radicalized. The data is especially alarming given recent pro-Hamas demonstrations and incidents of anti-Semitism in the United States following the Palestinian terror group’s October 7th attack on Israel. Some demonstrators have focused their anger on national Democrat politicians who they view as being too accommodating to Israeli military action against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

Last month The National Pulse reported Gen Z users of the Chinese-owned social media app, TikTok, were posting videos defending and approving of Osama bin Laden’s ‘Letter to America’. Thousands of TikTok users suggested the deceased al-Qaeda leader’s criticisms of the West were justified and urged others others to read the terrorist screed.

In the letter, the Saudi-born sheikh laid out a number of grievances against the United States, including the way Jews allegedly “control [its] policies, media and economy” and the “Satanic American Invention” of the AIDS virus. Bin Laden’s letter is best described as an Islamic supremacist tract which intentionally muddles anti-colonial and non-interventionist sentiment with pro-Sharia invocations.

Biden Govt Pays for Poland’s New Globalist Regime to Bring Illegal Migrants to National Parliament.

Poland’s new globalist government has wasted little time in demonstrating the strong border policies of the previous, national conservative government are on the way out, with a gaggle of migrants being invited to meet the new speaker.

The visit to the Sejm – the most powerful body in the Polish state – was organized by Fundacja Ocalenie. The foundation receives funding from the American taxpayer, the foundation having receives a $20,000 grant from the U.S. Embassy in Warsaw to “support the needs of marginalized communities,” namely migrants.

The foundation also lists the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees as a backer – with the U.S. being the UN’s top financial contributor – alongside the European Union and George Soros’s Open Society Foundations.

Fundacja Ocalenie took to social media to boast of the change in attitude towards illegal immigration, quoting one of Speaker Hołownia’s guests, formerly pushed back at the Belarusian border three times, as saying: “I would never have thought, while I was in the forest on the Belarusian-Polish border, that one day I would be invited to the Polish Sejm. That I would be among the specially invited people. Such a thought would not have even crossed my mind then.”

Speaker Szymon Hołownia, properly the Marshal of the Sejm, posed for an Angela Merkel-like picture surrounded by the migrants.

Hołownia is a member of the Third Way party, one of an unwieldy coalition of parties that backed Donald Tusk to become Prime Minister of Poland, ousting the previous Law and Justice party (PiS) despite the fact it placed first in October’s elections.

POISONING THE BLOOD: $10.2M of Meth & Coke Seized at US Border.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has seized 854.07 pounds of crystal methamphetamine, 164.72 pounds of powdered methamphetamine, or speed, and 165.34 pounds of cocaine at the World Trade Bridge in Laredo, Texas.

The narcotics, with an estimated street value of $10,298,520, were uncovered when a CBP officer brought in sniffer dogs to inspect a 2001 Freightliner tractor-trailer, which was supposedly transporting cut flowers.

“CBP is proud of the work our frontline officers do to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our communities. This significant seizure is an example of ongoing operational efforts conducted daily to protect our borders,” commented Port Director Alberto Flores.

The drugs find lends credence to Donald Trump’s warning, first reported by The National Pulse, that America’s southern border crisis is “poisoning the blood of our country.”

While the former president’s enemies have tried to paint the comments as racial, allies such as Senator J.D. Vance have pointed out it is “obvious that he was talking about the very clear fact that the blood of Americans is being poisoned by a drug epidemic.”

The 45th President also highlighted the danger illegal immigration poses to public health in terms of disease, with border officials having already identified the likes of tuberculosis, syphilis, and dengue fever among illegal aliens.

The enormous scale of the border crisis is straining officials’ resources at the frontier, making it less likely drugs shipments like the one intercepted at Laredo will be discovered.

NYC Career Criminal Stabs 2 Teen Girls on Christmas, Yelling ‘I Want All White People Dead’, After Repeatedly Being Released Thanks to AG Letitia James.

Career criminal Steven Hutcherson, 36, stabbed two girls aged 14 and 16 on Christmas morning, after being refused service at the Grand Central Dining Concourse in New York City.

Hutcherson, who is black, declared, “I want to sit next to the crackers” after staff told him he could not occupy a table at the Tartinery café-bar without ordering anything. He soon turned his ire on the two girls and their parents, who were tourists from South America.

Returning with a knife, Hutcherson reportedly yelled, “I want all the white people dead,” before he stabbed the 16-year-old in the back, damaging her lungs. He then plunged the blade into her 14-year-old sister’s thigh. Armed transit police were on the scene in under a minute, but he avoided being shot by dropping the weapon as soon as they appeared. Both victims were hospitalized, but have since been discharged.

Hutcherson has 17 prior arrests. He was charged with showing up at a police station in July with a dagger and a switchblade and scuffling with officers. He has also been charged with causing $81,000 in damages during a rampage at the Bergdorf Goodman department store in Manhattan in October. He only received 15-day sentences for these crimes, however, thanks to New York’s soft-on-crime Attorney General Letitia James.

As recently as November, he was charged after threatening to shoot a man and allegedly brandishing a firearm. He was found with a knife when police apprehended him, but was let off with a conditional discharge.

“They shouldn’t have let him out [of jail]. I don’t believe it,” said the victim in that case after being told about the stabbings.

Donald Trump has accused New York prosecutors of being overly focused on pursuing him through the courts for political reasons, as the Big Apple becomes increasingly lawless.

Fetterman Says He’ll Support Israel Even If He’s ‘The Last Man Standing’.

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) continues to affirm his support for Israel in spite of divisions within his party regarding the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. As reported in a POLITICO interview, Fetterman committed himself further to backing Israel’s objective to eradicate Hamas, a retaliatory response to the October 7 terrorist attack that allegedly killed more than 1,200 people. Fetterman’s stance wildly contrasts with the views of many Democratic lawmakers who have advocated for a ceasefire.

“I would be the last man standing to be absolutely there on the Israeli side on this with no conditions.”

– Sen. John Fetterman, December 2023.

Sen. Fetterman – an outspoken opponent of fellow Senate Democrat Bob Menendez (D-NJ) who faces federal prosecution for acting as an unregistered foreign agent for Egypt – drew the media spotlight last month when he publicly demonstrated his support for Israel by draping himself in an Israeli flag and walking past pro-Palestinian protesters gathered outside the Capitol. While Fetterman expressed distress about Palestinian civilian deaths, he emphasized Hamas’ tactic of using human shields in battle. “Only one side has broken the cease-fires. Only one side will systematically rape, torture and mutilate Israeli women and girls… Without destroying Hamas, there will be no enduring peace and a stable, two-state solution,” said Fetterman.

The Senator refrained from criticizing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stating that the leader’s political future should be determined by Israel’s citizens. Fetterman also acknowledged receiving unexpected praises from conservatives for his consistent backing of Israel’s mission. However, he dismissed focus on his social media activity, asserting, “I don’t spend any time on Twitter and that’s the truth. I encourage you – you can check my personal phone, I couldn’t even get on Twitter if I had to.”

EU Fears Another 2016 Moment in 2024.

Josep Borrell, High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice President of the European Commission, is afraid of a national populist surge in 2024, due to the worsening migrant crisis. Such a resurgence would represent a second major moment for the populist right, similar in nature to the Brexit and Trump victories in 2016.

“I am afraid of fear, I am afraid Europeans vote because they are afraid. It’s scientifically proven that fear in the face of the unknown and uncertainty generates a hormone that calls for a security response. This is a fact,” claimed Borrell, who like many top EU officials was appointed to his post without reference to voters.

The European Union (EU) establishment is increasingly concerned that national conservative and populist parties could make gains in the European Parliament elections scheduled for June 2024, with the Alternative for Germany party (AfD) having already made significant progress at the local and regional level in the EU’s socialist-governed economic powerhouse in 2023.

Overall, the populist right in Europe has seen mixed success in recent years. Viktor Orban won a fourth consecutive term in Hungary in 2022. Italy elected what was supposed to be its most conservative prime minister in decades, Giorgia Meloni. Though she was quickly subverted.

This year also saw populists lose ground in Spain’s elections, and the Socialist government cling to power despite the establishment right pushing it into second place. Similarly, Poland’s Law and Justice party (PiS) was ousted by Donald Tusk, a former EU president, despite placing first, after a coalition of globalist parties cut a deal to seize control.

Populist stalwart Geert Wilders placed first in the Dutch elections, although negotiations over the Netherlands’ next government, which will be some form of coalition, remain unresolved.

Migrant Caravan Could Reach 15,000 Before Reaching U.S. Border in 2024.

The biggest migrant caravan in a year is currently marching on the United States, with between 6,000 and 10,000 would-be border crossers setting out from Tapachula, in southern Mexico, this past Sunday.

Reported to primarily hail from Cuba, Haiti, and Honduras, the migrants are accompanied and abetted by anti-borders activists such as Luis Garcia Villagran, quoted as saying the caravan could swell to 15,000 by the time it reaches the U.S. southern border, at its current pace, by spring 2024.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken is traveling to Mexico to meet President Andrés Manuel López Obrador on Wednesday, where he will notionally plead for help in ameliorating the border crisis, which has seen crossings top 10,000 a day in recent weeks. He is being accompanied by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, who has often appeared to be on the cusp of being impeached over the crisis. In November, he escaped impeachment in a 209-201 vote, with eight Republicans joining with the Democrats to refer the matter to committee.

“[B]order agents are more than willing to sacrifice holidays to protect our fellow Americans, but what we are doing is not enforcing our laws, because of bad policy, our government is allowing cartels to control our border,” lamented the National Border Patrol Council in a statement.

WaPo Claims Borders Are Bad for National Security.

The Washington Post is pushing a bizarre new theory which argues national borders are, in fact, bad for national security. Catherine Rampell, a columnist with the Jeff Bezos-owned newspaper, deployed twisted logic to conclude Republican efforts to end America’s mass immigration crisis would actually make the situation worse.

“What does safeguarding national security have to do with curbing immigration?” she asks herself, before answering, incorrectly: “For the most part, not much. But they are related in the sense that the measures Republicans want would undermine U.S. security.”

According to the liberal-left columnist, limiting President Biden’s power to grant asylum and mass-parole to illegal immigrants “undermines U.S. security” since it would essentially revive Title 42 – a pandemic measure which required asylum seekers to remain in Mexico pending adjudication of their claims.

Rampell even disingenuously implies Title 42 is responsible for the increased chaos at the border, when in reality, it was the Biden government’s decision to allow the measure to expire which drove the throngs of foreigners to the border. She goes on to conflate U.S. national security with Joe Biden’s campaign promises, lamenting, “[a]greeing to these measures would violate Biden’s 2020 campaign promises to restore integrity and humanity to the asylum system — promises he has arguably already been reneging on.”

Vatican Cardinal Blasts Pope for Allowing Clerical Blessings for Gay Couples.

German Cardinal Gerhard Müller says Fiducia supplicans – authored by Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez under the imprimatur of Pope Francis – is “self contradictory” and claims the document “was neither discussed nor approved by the General Assembly of Cardinals and Bishops of this Dicastery.” The document ostensibly opens to the door to ‘pastoral’ blessings for same-sex couples and unions. From 2012 to 2017, Cardinal Müller headed the Church’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith – the same Church body now headed by Cardinal Fernandez.

While the Catholic Church “can set certain pastoral accents and creatively relate the truth of Revelation to the new challenges of each age”, Müller asserts the doctrine is clear: “…these innovations cannot go beyond what was revealed to them once and for all by the apostles as the word of God (Dei verbum 8).”

The German cleric goes further: “In fact, there are no biblical texts or texts of the Fathers and Doctors of the Church or previous documents of the magisterium to support the conclusions of [Fiducia supplicans]” in a direct challenge to the Pope and Cardinal Fernandez.

Cardinal Müller notes the last time the Church issued a magisterial ruling on the matter of blessings for same-sex unions and couples – in 2021 – “…it categorically rejected the possibility of blessing these unions. This applies both to public blessings and to private blessings for people living in sinful conditions.” He goes on to argue Fiducia supplicans attempts to recognize the validity of the previous magisterial ruling – “and binding teaching” – as they apply to sacramental or liturgical blessings, but undermines this validity by broadening the definition of ‘blessing’ so much as to render it almost meaningless.

The Church already allows for sinners to receive a simple blessing when their state of sin precludes them from the sacraments.

In essence, Cardinal Müller, believes Fiducia supplicans creates a new category of blessing, which he notes “are a novelty”, with “…no basis for this new usage in the biblical texts cited… .” The influential German cardinal ultimately concludes, in what can only be read as a direct challenge to the document: “There is no blessing, not only in public but also in private, for sinful living conditions that objectively contradict God’s holy will.”
