China Sends Kindergarteners to War Camps, U.S. Sends Kids to Sex Ed Camps

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Dozens of school social media accounts revealed that the Chinese military is training kindergarteners to become soldiers, while America trains its youth to be sexually active.

The social media posts showed the CCP boot camps training both boys and girls for combat with many different weapons like knives, grenades, rifles and shoulder-fired missiles. Additionally, children were taught to adopt military behavior, like saluting.

“There’s sort of a ‘get ’em while they’re young’ mentality that has always been part of the communist ethos,” Brandon Weichert, a U.S. Air Force consultant, told the Daily Caller.

“Xi Jinping is trying to inculcate not just a patriotic fervor among the next generation, but I think he’s trying to also create actual next soldiers for the inevitable campaigns that he plans on waging militarily.”

Uniformed People’s Liberation Army [PLA] soldiers oversaw the kindergarten boot camps that were located both in major Chinese cities, such as Beijing, Nanjing and Shenzhen, and more than half a dozen provinces including Anhui, Fujian and Guangdong.

Aside from previously mentioned combat training and basic military etiquette, children were also given emergency medical training.

“INHERIT THE RED GENE, CARRY FORWARD PATRIOTIC FEELINGS, LOVE CHINA, LITTLE SOLDIER,” a large PLA banner at the Xingtan Guanghui Kindergarten in Guangdong province declared.

More than 80 children were wearing matching camouflage fatigues, ready for the opening ceremony of their school’s week-long National Defense Education camp that happened in May of this year.

Several kindergarten boot camps also told children to emulate famous war heroes by showing them an episode of the computer-animated children’s series, “Long March Hero,” and admire PLA martyrs by using Huang Jiguang and Dong Cunrui — both PLA martyrs — as examples.

“Their kids aren’t talking about boys becoming girls and vice versa. Their kids are talking about, ‘Let’s go out with bayonets, play in the field and pretend like we’re killing Americans.’ That’s where this is headed,” Weichert said.

While Chinese communists train their young children to defend their regime in boot camps, American leftists have their own camps that only make the United States look even weaker.

In one of its Twitter posts, Minnesota’s Planned Parenthood announced that it will organize the sex education camp at the end of July, telling children about having sex, in hopes of them later coming to one of PP’s slaughterhouses to kill their unborn babies. PP also included a link to the application in the tweet.

Gave Them to Ukraine? Biden Admits He Depleted Military Out of Ammo

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) In a recent interview with Fareed Zakaria, President Biden admitted that the United States military is running out of ammunition. This shocking revelation comes as Biden plans to provide cluster munitions to Ukraine, a move that has ignited a fierce debate due to the controversial nature of these weapons.

During the interview, Zakaria pressed the president about his controversial decision to funnel cluster munitions, which have been banned by 100 nations, including some of America’s closest NATO allies. Zakaria also reminded Biden that his own government once claimed the use of cluster bombs constitutes war crimes.

In response, Biden claimed, “Two things, Fareed. It was a very difficult decision on my part… We’re in a situation where Ukraine continues to be brutally attacked across the board by munitions, by these cluster munitions… that are a danger to civilians, number one.”

Biden further elaborated on the ammunition shortage facing both Ukraine and the U.S. “The Ukrainians are running out of ammunition,” Biden asserted. “This is a war relating to munitions and they’re running out of that ammunition, and we’re low on them.” 

Biden then blamed the Department of Defense for recommending the use of cluster bombs. “[W]hat I finally did, I took the recommendation of the Defense Department to, not permanently, but to allow for this transition period where we get more 155 weapons, the shells for the Ukrainians to provide them with something that has a very low dud rate,” Biden added. “They’re trying to get through the trenches and stop those tanks from rolling.” 

Highlighting the gravity of his policy reversal, Biden admitted, “It was not an easy decision. We’re not signatories of that agreement. It took me a while to get convinced to do it.” 

However, Biden’s decision, which directly contradicts his administration’s previous stance, has faced immediate backlash even from within his own party. Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., blasted Biden’s agreement to hand over cluster bombs.

“Cluster bombs should never be used. That is crossing the line,” Lee said in an interview with CNN on Sunday. “Once you see what takes place—we know what takes place in terms of cluster bombs being very dangerous to civilians. They don’t always immediately explode. Children could step on them. That is a line we should not cross.”

UPDATE: One-Eyed Ex-FBI Chief Unequivocally Denies Acting as Mole for Biden Family

Update: In an exclusive email to Headline USA, former FBI Director Louis Freeh’s attorney, Greg Paw, unequivocally denied that Freeh was “One Eye”—the alleged FBI mole identified by self-purported whistleblower Gal Luft.

Paw further said that Luft is a “federal fugitive charged with, among other crimes, lying to federal law enforcement”—referencing the recently unsealed federal indictment against Luft. “The speculation is totally inaccurate,” Paw said.

Luft was charged with the alleged crimes on Monday night, after the original publication of this story.

Despite the denial, Freeh is known to have assisted Hunter Biden on at least one other legal matter that, similarly, involved the blurring of lines between the Biden family’s foreign business transactions and potential violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act.

Original story below:

(Ken Silva, Headline USA) Several reputable conservative media outlets have centered their speculation about the identity of an FBI mole who allegedly tipped off the Biden family on former FBI Director Louis Freeh.

Freeh had dealings with the Bidens and apparently only has one healthy eye—leaving many to speculate that he is the FBI mole, reportedly nicknamed “One Eye,” who was identified by self-purported whistleblower Gal Luft.

Luft hasn’t publicly identified One Eye. He first revealed the existence of this mysterious FBI mole in March, and provided more details in a video earlier this month—describing him as a “very senior retired FBI official, who had a distinct physical characteristic: He had one eye.”

But according to New York Post writer Miranda Devine, who broke the original One Eye story, Luft thinks One Eye is Freeh.

“I think Gal Luft certainly thinks it’s [Freeh],” Devine said last week on Megyn Kelly’s show.

Devine, for her part, has reservations about whether Freeh really was the mole who tipped off Hunter’s Chinese business partners.

Even though Freeh matches the physical description—and even though he appeared in Hunter’s laptop data, and reportedly gave $100,000 to a private trust for Joe Biden’s grandchildren in 2016—Devine has urged caution against jumping to conclusions.

“Gal Luft has been told something by his Chinese business partners, who were also giving money to the Bidens. Hunter Biden certainly must have had a mole in the FBI, because it was true that the FBI was investigating [his Chinese business associates],” Devine told Kelly.

“But whether it was actually Louis Freeh or someone with one eye, we don’t know, because Hunter Biden does tell a lot of different stories to different people. And we know there were other FBI names on the laptop.”

Regardless of any role he may play in the Hunter Biden scandal, Freeh—an appointee of former President Bill Clinton—has been at the forefront of his own share of scandals.

Leading the bureau from September 1993 to June 2001, Freeh’s bureau failed to prevent the two deadliest terrorist attacks in American history: the Oklahoma City bombing, which occurred in April 1995, and the 9/11 attacks, which were planned under his nose and executed three months after he left office.

Journalists have also questioned the circumstances of a 2014 car crash that apparently left him with a severely injured eye. The investigative outlet Who, What, Why wrote about the curious fact that an FBI agent was the first to respond to Freeh’s crash.

“Students of history will note the many instances in which FBI have shown up at sensitive accident/crash scenes with great haste—sometimes seemingly surmounting formidable obstacles, and sometimes arriving in force that would seem impossible based on actual local staffing,” the publication noted, citing the FBI’s controversial investigations into the TWA flight 800 wreck and the plane crash that killed the wife of former CIA officer and embattled Watergate burglar E. Howard Hunt.

“Freeh, with his knowledge of details concerning controversial major security events that have not been, in many people’s minds, satisfactorily explained—including 9/11, TWA Flight 800, Oklahoma City, Ruby Ridge, Waco, investigations of the Clintons and more—is in a sensitive position,” it continued. “If his accident was, in the opinion of the FBI, not an accident, then they would conceivably have a reason to be concerned for his safety.”

Leftist Enclave Spends Millions on Homeless, Numbers Skyrocket

(By Timothy Schumann, The Center Square) Spokane County commissioners asked the hard questions and came up with few answers about the efficacy of millions of dollars spent on homelessness only to see more people on the streets.

The frustration came after a strategic planning meeting Monday, with commissioners getting bogged down in details about the implementation of an interlocal agreement regarding a new regional homeless authority.

“I guess one of my questions […] is again, what is helping make a difference, or not, versus what have we been doing?” asked Commissioner Mary Kuney.

Kuney pointed out that what they’ve been doing hasn’t been working because, as recent point-in-time count numbers have shown, most metrics related to homelessness in Spokane County are on the rise.

“What’s causing our numbers to go up because we’re putting more money into prevention?” asked Kuney, noting that even if the interlocal agreement establishes a new regional homeless authority, commissioners will still be responsible for spending their constituents’ tax monies wisely.

Commissioner Josh Kerns echoed the concern.

“How much money went through this community for rental assistance over the last three years to keep people in their houses, and the number still went up? Like you said, why?” asked Kerns.

The general tone of the discussion was one of addressing root causes and spending taxpayer funds efficiently and effectively.

Sharing the sentiment, Commissioner Al French asked if a comparison to Tacoma’s policy would be possible, given that they’re of a similar size to Spokane, and much of the City of Spokane’s policy drives policy county-wide.

“Since [Tacoma’s] numbers are considerably lower than ours, what are they doing differently than we are that is driving their numbers down? Is there a policy decision that we’ve made that is attracting more, or are they just shifting more of their homeless into Seattle and King County?” asked French.

“If that’s the solution, maybe we need to start getting a bus to Kootenai County,” joked French.

The same county whose sheriff recently warned off Washington criminals for the 4th of July holiday weekend with the slogan, “Don’t come to Kootenai County on vacation, and leave on probation.”

Despite being a joke, the quip from French moved the conversation to one of geography.

It was noted that Spokane is a “receiving entity,” offering many more services than any of the nearby counties, including those in Idaho.

Tacoma was referred to as a “sending entity,” and Seattle as the “receiving entity,” implying that disparity was the cause for the increasing numbers in Spokane County.

“Our geographic region is not just Spokane County; it’s the nine counties that surround us. Stevens to Whitman, Canada to Oregon,” commented Commissioner French, highlighting the immense size of the geographic region of Spokane, which covers the better part of a third of the state of Washington.

The meeting went on to discuss other funding issues but ultimately concluded with more questions than answers.

The commissioners agreed to continue the discussion next week.

Biden’s Pick to Lead Joint Chiefs of Staff Led DEI Efforts at Air Force

(By Casey Harper, The Center Square) President Joe Biden’s nominee to Chair the Joint Chiefs of Staff helped spearhead the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion movement at the Air Force and now faces formal Inspector General complaints over his pledge to promote and hire subordinates based on race.

Chief of Staff of the Air Force Charles Q. Brown is expected to testify before the Senate Armed Services Committee Tuesday as the next step in his nomination process.

Brown has been a major backer of the DEI efforts at the Air Force, which has joined other branches in embracing the DEI agenda. The Air Force launched a Diversity and Inclusion Task Force in September 2020, and Brown said in the fall of 2020 that DEI was a key point of recruiting and a factor in promotions.

“I hire for diversity, because they all bring a different perspective, which makes my decisions that much better, because I hear different sides of the argument,” Brown said in November of 2020 as part of a virtual event hosted by the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. “Hearing from all these different groups provides a perspective…It makes us stronger as an Air Force, and I think it makes us stronger as a nation as well.”

The American Accountability Foundation gave The Center Square an advance copy of an Inspector General complaint to be filed Monday against Brown, pointing to several media interviews where Brown says he considers race as a factor in hiring and promotion.

“General Brown has made statements in favor of making hiring and promotion decisions in the Air Force based on race, as well as monitoring the private beliefs of recruits, airmen, officers, and employees with the intention of censoring those beliefs,” the complaint said.

Critics say Brown’s actions violate the equal protection clause, free speech, and the Department of Defense code of conduct. They point to the Secretary of the Air Force’s official Air Force Policy Directive 36-27 from March of 2019, which states:

“It is against Air Force policy for any Airman, military or civilian to unlawfully discriminate, harass, intimidate, or threaten a military or civilian Airman on the basis of race, color, sex, national origin, religion, or sexual orientation. In addition, it is unlawful to discriminate, harass, intimidate, or threaten a civilian Airman based on age, disability, genetic information, gender indentity as a form of sex discrimination, reprisal, or any other non-merit factors prohibited by statute, regulation, or Executive Order.”

Federal law currently prohibits discriminating against candidates in hiring based on race.

“These efforts have had a particularly deleterious impact on the Department of Defense which for decades has prided itself on its tradition of meritocracy where individuals can achieve their highest potential based on their aptitude and hard work, versus their race, sex, and ethnicity,” Thomas Spoehr, a Heritage expert and retired lieutenant general who served more than 36 years in the U.S. Army, told The Center Square, adding that he believes the push is hurting recruitment.

As The Center Square previously reported, Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall said in a speech earlier this year that Active-duty Air Force is expected to miss its 2023 recruiting goal by 10%.

Democrats, and some Republicans, though, have welcomed Brown’s nomination, meaning blocking his nomination could be an uphill battle.

“As the Ranking Member of the Appropriations Defense Subcommittee, I have valued General Brown’s extensive experience, focus, and thoughtfulness, all qualities he would bring to the role of Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,” Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said in a statement after the nomination was announced.

Rapper ’50 Cent’ Says Los Angeles Is ‘Finished’ after Bail Reform

(Headline USA) Rapper Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, warned last week that Los Angeles is “finished” after the courts reinstated a zero-bail policy.

“LA is finished watch how bad it gets out there. SMH,” Jackson said in a July 6 Instagram reel, which included a news segment about a court ruling that eliminates bail for anyone charged with a misdemeanor or nonviolent felony.

A post shared by 50 Cent (@50cent)

Los Angeles city officials implemented the zero-bail policy during the pandemic to ease pressure on crowded jails. It expired in July 2022.

However, Judge Lawrence Riff ruled last month that cash bail was unconstitutional and ordered Los Angeles to reinstate zero bail. According to reports, woke District Attorney George Gascon—did not even bother to lawyers to argue in defense of the cash-bail system.

Gascon, whose campaign was underwritten in large part by pro-anarchist oligarch George Soros, has been a strong supporter of criminal justice reform that favors criminals. A 2022 effort to recall him failed after the county clerk’s office declared some 195,000 signatures to be invalid.

Unsurprisingly, crime in Los Angeles has been on the rise since zero bail was reinstated.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has pushed back on the policy, maintaining it will continue to enforce bail in applicable cases.

“The Department is aware of the preliminary injunction regarding the cash bail system, and of course will comply with any court-ordered bail schedule,” the office said in a statement.

“The County is also working with the court and other stakeholders to explore ways to reduce the number of people held before arraignment because they can’t afford bail and to provide the Sheriff greater release options to safely reduce the jail population, while always prioritizing public safety,” it added.

Several other leftist cities, including New York City, have embraced similar “bail reform” policies. And each time, crime rises as a result. In New York, for example, 43% of the criminals arrested between July 2020 and June 2021 and released on bail were rearrested.

In a follow-up post on Sunday, “50 Cent” took aim at the media for reporting his past “run-ins with the law.”

“Hey I understand why Deadline is reporting my opinion. I’m a big deal, but why did they write I had run in’s with the law? 👀Im a born again Christian!” he wrote on Instagram.

The rapper was one of several prominent black entertainers to come out in support of then-President Donald Trump during the 2020 election but later backpedaled under duress from others in the entertainment industry.

Leftists Turn on AOC after She Endorses Biden for Reelection

(Headline USA) Leftists have turned on Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., after she endorsed President Joe Biden’s reelection bid, accusing her of betraying the progressive cause.

Ocasio-Cortez threw her support behind Biden during a recent interview with “Pod Save America.” Asked whether she’d back Biden or one of his two Democratic primary challengers, Marianne Williamson and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Ocasio-Cortez chose Biden.

“I think he’s done quite well given the limitations that we have,” the self-described Democratic socialist said. “I do think that there are ebbs and flows, as there are in any presidency. There are areas that I think were quite strong when [Biden] came right out of the gate with the American Rescue Plan, and of course the Inflation Reduction Act was a massive step in terms of our climate agenda.”

However, Ocasio-Cortez hinted that her answer might have been different if the primary field had been wider.

“I believe, given that field, yes,” Ocasio-Cortez said.

In response, Ocasio-Cortez’s fellow progressives blasted her for siding with the Democratic establishment. 

“It was true for Bernie Sanders’ endorsement & its true of AOC (sic),” former Bernie Sanders campaign press secretary Briahna Joy Gray wrote on Twitter. “*Most* Democrats don’t want Biden to run. Bernie and AOC are tragically out of step w/ the movement & the moment.”

Gray added that, “at the very least,” leftists such as Ocasio-Cortez “should be asking for commitments in exchange for their endorsement.” 

“AOC once said in a normal country, she and Biden wouldn’t be in the same party. Maybe that was once true. Not anymore,” she said.

Other leftist users agreed.

“Absolute loser AOC thinks Biden has done a good job. This is why electoral politics is a dead end. When leaders like AOC signal to the world that Biden is doing well, it harms the left,” one wrote.

Self-described socialist Ransom Thomas went so far as to accuse Ocasio-Cortez of not being a true democratic socialist.

“I’d call it a betrayal but AOC and others have made it clear that they haven’t been on the side of the socialist movement for a while now, if they ever even truly were in the first place,” Thomas wrote.

Biden Mistakenly Reveals How Ukraine Aid Is Draining U.S. Military of Resources

(Headline USA) President Joe Biden mistakenly let slip during an interview Sunday that the U.S. military’s artillery ammo supplies are running low due to ongoing Ukraine aid, RealClear Politics reported.

During an interview with CNN, Biden defended his administration’s controversial decision to send cluster munitions to Ukraine.

He said the weapons were part of a “transition period” in the U.S.’s aid to Ukraine while it waits for more munitions to be produced.

“This is a war relating to munitions. And they’re running out of that ammunition, and we’re low on it,” Biden admitted. “And so, what I finally did, I took the recommendation of the Defense Department to—not permanently—but to allow for this transition period while we get more 155 weapons, these shells, for the Ukrainians.”

Critics blasted Biden for revealing crucial information about the state of our military readiness.

“Joe Biden broadcasting to the world that the US is low on 155mm shells,” conservative communicator Steve Guest tweeted. “Moron. Does Biden not care that our adversaries in China are listening?”

The Washington Examiner’s Byron York pointed out that Biden finally revealed the extent to which ongoing aid to Ukraine is affecting our own military.

“In CNN interview, President Biden is not particularly clear but seems to be saying US is sending cluster munitions to Ukraine because we are running out of 155mm artillery ammunition to send them,” he tweeted. “Seems obvious this is affecting US readiness to defend itself.”

However, a White House official attempted to walk back Biden’s comments on Monday, claiming the only military aid America was sending to Ukraine was “in excess” of what the U.S. military needs.

“The military has specific requirements for the numbers of weapons systems and ammunition we maintain in our reserves in case of contingencies or military conflict,” the official claimed. “Everything we send to Ukraine is in excess of that. So, the U.S. is not running out of ammunition ourselves.”

Despite Biden’s alarming statement, many were more fixated on a different takeaway from Sunday’s sit-down: the obseqiously fawning commentary from interviewer Fareed Zakaria, who opined that Biden has been a “great president.”

The interview follows a recent town hall event with former President Donald Trump, during which moderator Kaitlan Collins was needlessly combatitive and disrespectful, drawing a rebuke from Trump that she was a “nasty person.”

Trump nonetheless dominated the exchange, leading many of CNN’s veteran on-air “talents” to revolt and demand the head of then-CEO Chris Licht, who was fired shortly thereafter.

The network has continued to struggle in its efforts to find a niche in the media marketplace after effectively destroying its credibility with over-sensationalized—and ultimately false—coverage during the Trump presidency.

Bishop for Church of England Says Lord’s Prayer is Problematic

(Ezekiel Loseke, Headline USA) A bishop in the Church of England has attacked a prayer given to Christians by Jesus Himself.

Stephen Cottrell, archbishop of York, criticized what many Protestant Christians call The Lord’s Prayer and Catholics commonly refer to as “the Our Father,” which Jesus gives to his followers in Mathew 6:9-13, the most iconic English translation is that of The King James:

After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Cottrell said that the problem with the prayer is the opening.

“I know the word ‘father’ is problematic for those whose experience of earthly fathers has been destructive and abusive, and for all of us who have laboured rather too much from an oppressively patriarchal grip on life,” he said in his opening remarks addressing the Church of England’s General Synod.

Some in the Synod agreed with Cottrell.

“[He] put his finger on an issue that’s a really live issue for Christians and has been for many years,” one unnamed, female Anglican Priest said. “The big question is, do we really believe that God believes that male human beings bear his image more fully and accurately than women?,” she continued.

“The answer is absolutely not.”

Dr. Chris Sugden, a conservative Anglican, took exception to the statement.

“Is the archbishop of York saying Jesus was wrong, or that Jesus was not pastorally aware?” he asked. “It seems to be emblematic of the approach of some church leaders to take their cues from culture rather than scripture.”

Father Calvin Robinson, in his analysis of the remark, commented on the origin of the prayer and its centrality to Christianity.

“We call it the ‘Lord’s Prayer’ because it is the prayer the Lord gave us. He taught us to pray it,” he said. “We call God ‘Our Father’ because that is how he instructed us to address him,” he continued, highlighting that God chose his own title.
