The winningest female Jeopardy contender and the historic first female four-star admiral are both men, but at least the highest earning female athlete ever really is a woman, if it turns out to be Eileen Gu. Unfortunately, Gu is also a moonbat, who betrays her own country to side with a communist dictatorship against it:

Gu, 18, first made headlines in 2019 when she announced that she would be competing in the Olympics under the flag of her mother’s home country, China. Gu was raised all of her life in California by an American father and a Chinese mother.

Even Claire McCaskill is disgusted:

“I don’t get it. And never will. I think it is wrong for an American to compete for China.”

The ChiComs are delighted with the propaganda coup this ingrate has handed them. Their state media fawns on her — as does the liberal establishment media here.

As for the human rights record of the regime she chooses to represent in competition against her own country, Genocide Barbie doesn’t want to hear about it:

After winning a major halfpipe contest in Colorado in December, Gu looked distinctly uncomfortable when China’s human rights abuses were mentioned, gave her agent a chance to halt the interview, and then shut it down herself.

“There’s no need to be divisive. I think everything I do, it’s all about inclusivity. And it’s all about making everybody feel as connected as possible,” she said — a dicey choice of words when the enslaved Uyghur Muslims and oppressed Tibetans are harshly punished for trying to “connect” with anyone.

Surprisingly, she didn’t mention diversity and equity, which bookend inclusivity in the DIE triumvirate.

[Gu] describes herself as an “outspoken” advocate for social justice causes, including gender issues, anti-Asian violence, and Black Lives Matter.

She had better not get specific about who is committing the anti-Asian violence. That would undermine the narrative. Annoying either the ChiComs or the liberal establishment would undermine cashing in on her fame:

The sheer number of endorsements the 18-year-old Gu has bagged, even before her recent win, makes her an outlier in China as a marketing force as well as a skier. …

Gu has contracts with more than 30 international and Chinese brands, according to a Wall Street Journal review. The deals span a dizzying array of sectors: luxury watches; cars; clothing; cosmetics; milk; house paint; home appliances; mobile apps; banking; and insurance.

Selling out to communism can produce big profits.

A spokeswoman in China for Kohler, the Wisconsin-based bathroom fixture-and-faucet maker, told The Wall Street Journal it made Gu a brand ambassador in the country because its drive for innovation matched the skier’s “bold spirit.”

By praising her “bold spirit,” they mean that Gu is an ideologically obedient moonbat, like everyone else corporations celebrate these days. Imagine if her spirit were so bold that she criticized the genocide and slavery practiced by the ChiCom regime. Imagine if she dared point out that the liberal establishment narrative that produced hundreds of violent Black Lives Matter riots is a contrived lie meant to keep blacks on the Democrat plantation. Her endorsement deals would dry up faster than spilt Uyghur blood in the Xinjiang desert.

Sports and entertainment marketing experts … estimate that they could put Gu among the ranks of the world’s highest-earning female athletes, such as Naomi Osaka and Serena Williams, soaring above the typical ceiling of once-every-four-years Olympic stars. Osaka and Williams made more than $55 million and $35 million, respectively, last year…

Moonbattery ruins the world of normal people, but it can be highly lucrative to those in a position to cash in.

If we are not going to call it treason — which it is — can we at least agree that this is criminal misappropriation of funds?

Biden is diverting Chinese coronavirus funding away from Americans and using it to fly border crossers and illegal aliens into the United States interior, a Republican congressman says.

According to Rep Dan Meuser (R-PA):

“They diverted billions of dollars of funding that was dedicated for tests, covid tests … to bring in unaccompanied minors, illegal minors into the U.S.”

No wonder people have to wait in line for hours for the largely pointless but federally mandated tests.

The money has been diverted to support a full-scale invasion of the United States that will alter the country forever:

The Biden administration has helped entice nearly two million border crossers and illegal aliens to arrive at the southern border in 2021.

Even Biden’s handlers admit to another estimated half a million having snuck in undetected. The actual number is no doubt much higher.

Meanwhile, as of late October, Biden has released more than 530,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the U.S. interior.

Speaking of the misappropriation of funds:

Many schools are not resuming classes as the year begins, citing COVID-19, after spending some of the $130 billion schools received for reopening on Critical Race Theory-infused initiatives instead, a review of funding applications shows.

The ruling Democratic Party has been bought and paid for by radical teachers unions, which dictate Covid policy to the CDC, so there is no need for subtlety. If teachers teach at all, it will mainly be poisonous leftist ideology.

The never-ending Covid crisis combined with the collapse of rule of law makes this a great time to be a traitor or a looter.

Explaining a joke kills it, but in case anyone doesn’t understand why Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm laughed so hard when asked what the Biden Administration would do to increase energy production in the face of climbing prices, this story makes it clear:

The Biden Administration is considering shutting down a Michigan oil pipeline in another push to get the U.S, away from fossil fuels, despite warnings from Republican lawmakers who believe the move would result in fuel price shocks throughout the Midwest.

The administration is exploring the possibility of terminating the Line 5 pipeline – which links Superior, Wisconsin, with Sarnia, Ontario…

Throwing Americans out of work by pointlessly killing the Keystone XL pipeline, like the shutting down of oil drilling on federal land, was part of a continuing policy. Under Biden and his leftist handlers, the job of the Energy Secretary is to suppress energy production, not increase it. That’s what tickled Granholm’s funny bone.

As members of Congress note in a letter to the Biden Regime,

“Should this pipeline be shut down, tens of thousands of jobs would be lost across Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, and the region; billions of dollars in economic activity would be in jeopardy; and the environment would be at greater risk due to additional trucks operating on roadways and railroads carrying hazardous materials.”

The price of home heating fuels was already expected to skyrocket this winter. Shutting down Line 5 will make this crisis even worse.

It will also worsen our relationship with Canada, which was already damaged by the Keystone XL shutdown. Canadians will be forced to sell their energy to our ChiCom adversaries instead.

Yet Biden greenlighted the Nord Stream 2 pipeline that will make Germany dependent on natural gas from Russia. Despite the phony rhetoric, this is not about the environment. It is economic sabotage by the same traitors who won’t close the border during an invasion.

The Biden Regime has only just begun to fundamentally transform America by displacing the population:

Several thousand migrants from Haiti, South America, and Central America are making their way north to the southern border of the United States. …

Approximately 3,000 migrants marched in the southern Mexican city of Tapachula – about 10 miles from the Guatemala border.

This 3,000 is only the latest installment. The Third World has an infinite capacity to produce needy colonists to displace Americans.

We have plenty of time to prepare defenses against this approaching invasion force. But no effective preparations will be made, because they are coming on Biden’s invitation. Our approaching replacements are quite open about this:

There are reports that members of the caravan were carrying signs with President Joe Biden’s name on them, including one that read: “Joe Biden Is For All.”

As for Mexico’s defensive forces, these are rendered useless by the scale of the invasion.

The Mexican National Guard established a roadblock – fortified by some 400 law enforcement officers. Video shows the migrant caravan overwhelming the Mexican force and bulldozing the officers who were equipped with shields and anti-riot gear.

Watch civilization fall:

A single helicopter gunship could put a stop to this. Imagine the military response if these were Russian troops. To be invaded and temporarily occupied by a civilized country would be a blessing compared to the consequences of what is happening now. Imagine an America where every congressional district elects an Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Yet not a shot will be fired in the USA’s defense as the traitors comprising the Democratic Party bring The Camp of the Saints to life.

A full scale invasion of the United States across the Mexican border is well underway. It will change our country forever — or rather, it will destroy our country and replace it with a different one more suitable for socialist rule. Even the moonbats at Newsweek admit that as many as 400,000 invaders could cross the border this month alone. Meanwhile, our rulers have spent $5 million per day of our money not to complete an urgently needed border wall, according to Rodney Scott, who served as Chief of the US Border Patrol under both Trump and Biden:

“We made it very clear that if we dropped all of the initiatives that have been put in place over the last several years that we would get an influx of mass migration that we would not be able to control,” he said.

Scott observes the Biden Regime is “choosing not to take simple, commonsense steps to secure the border.”

“Many of those projects today are just still on hold, so we’re paying contractors. For a while, it was almost five million a day between DoD and DHS to not build the border wall,” Scott told [Fox News Special Report] host Bret Baier.

What is left of former President Donald Trump’s border wall are “stacks and stacks” of panels, “hundreds of miles of fiber optic cabling, cameras” that are just “sitting there,” Scott said.

It is not just the poorest of Mexico’s poor that Democrats are importing to displace American voters. Under Scott’s 17-month tenure, the Border Patrol caught invaders crossing the southern border from 150 countries, drawn from every corner of the world by the lure of free handouts coercively financed by American taxpayers.

Meanwhile, the Regime prevents Border Patrol officers from using horses to slow the torrent of Haitians across the Rio Grande. Once illegal aliens make it across, the Feds furtively seed them throughout the country.

Our country is undergoing a massive foreign invasion with the active collusion of the government. If this is not treason, the word has no meaning. Biden and his handlers must be tried for treason for the US government to restore its validity.

On a tip from Varla.

If this can be proven, Mark Milley belongs in front of a firing squad for committing treason against the United States in collusion with our communist Chinese adversaries:

In their new book, “Peril,” journalists Bob Woodward and Robert Costa claim that Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was so concerned that then-President Donald Trump would “go rogue” and “spark a war with China” that he made a “pair of secret phone calls” to his counterpoint in China, per the Washington Post. …

“In a pair of secret phone calls, Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, assured his Chinese counterpart, Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People’s Liberation Army, that the United States would not strike,” the pair of reporters noted. …

Shockingly, according to Woodward and Costa, it seems Milley communicated sensitive information to a Chinese general and even suggested that he would warn China ahead of time if he discovered that Trump planned to attack.

None of this will come out of the blue to those familiar with Milley’s radical, anti-American political views.

The difference between a free country and a military dictatorship consists of civilian control of the military. Military figures who undermine that control are a threat to our system of government. Those who do it on behalf of our most formidable adversary in the context of a military confrontation have committed clear-cut treason and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

Joe Biden’s ostensibly treasonous acts in Afghanistan could be ascribed to extreme incompetence compounded by dementia. Not so with Milley.

If we let straightforward traitors control our country, America is over. No functional nation would tolerate this.

On tips from Varla and MAS.

The only problem with charging Biden, Milley, Austin, and the rest with treason for what they have done in Afghanistan is that once you start looking for treason these days, you might never stop finding it.

Nothing Biden has done would take an informed voter by surprise. He has always had conspicuously awful judgment. He ran as a visibly senile figurehead for a radicalized party openly hostile to normal Americans. We didn’t know exactly what Biden would do, but we knew it would not be beneficial to the USA. If Biden is a traitor, those who put him in power are traitors. They need to repent and mend their ways.

The mother of one of the Marines Biden killed in Afghanistan by grotesquely letting the Taliban take charge of security makes the case:

Her characterization of Joe Biden as a “feckless, dementia-ridden piece of crap” is incontestable — just as it would have been before the election.

As Daily Caller reports,

Rylee had recently gotten married in February, and he and his wife were expecting a baby in September.

Kareem Nikoui’s father Steve Nikoui, whose son also died in the Kabul terrorist attack, had expressed similar views and stated that he felt Biden had “turned his back” on U.S. service members, as previously reported.

The depth of the treason becomes more evident with every passing day:

On a tip from Chuck A.

Even after they turned over $85 billion worth of military equipment to our terrorist enemies, it was debatable whether Biden and his handlers are guilty of treason or simply incompetent to an extreme never yet witnessed. That debate has been settled by a kill list of Americans and American sympathizers the Biden regime provided to the Taliban.

The libs at Politico can’t help but report:

U.S. officials in Kabul gave the Taliban a list of names of American citizens, green card holders and Afghan allies to grant entry into the militant-controlled outer perimeter of the city’s airport, a choice that’s prompted outrage behind the scenes from lawmakers and military officials.

The move … came as the Biden administration has been relying on the Taliban for security outside the airport.

Our rulers made the decision to leave terrorists who have been at war with us for the past 20 years in charge of Americans’ safety despite controlling the world’s most expensive military. We had our own airbase, but Bagram was abandoned because the woke Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff felt it to be “unnecessary,” presumably because it could not be used to combat “white rage.” The consequences were easily predictable, and include at least 13 American servicemembers killed so far.

“Basically, they just put all those Afghans on a kill list,” said one defense official, who like others spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive topic. “It’s just appalling and shocking and makes you feel unclean.”

Patriotic Americans have felt unclean from the moment Biden’s handlers took power.

Asked about the kill list, Biden pleaded ignorance…

…but also didn’t deny that sometimes the U.S. hands over names to the Taliban.

It’s too late to deny it. The awful truth is out there.

After the fall [i.e., abject surrender without preparation for withdrawal] of Kabul, in the earliest days of the evacuation, the joint U.S. military and diplomatic coordination team at the airport provided the Taliban with a list of people the U.S. aimed to evacuate. Those names included Afghans who served alongside the U.S. during the 20-year war and sought special immigrant visas to America.

No one — not even Biden himself — could be stupid enough not to understand what the Taliban would do with such a list.

The Taliban has gone door-to-door in search of Afghan interpreters and others who helped U.S. and Western forces.

I wouldn’t wish the fate of the Taliban’s victims on anyone — except possibly Biden and Blinken.

The moonbat mollusks Democrats have obscenely put in charge of the military now refer to Taliban terrorists as “our Afghan partners.” They are partners, all right — in crimes against the USA.

Americans and American allies will be murdered, raped, tortured, and/or held for extravagant ransom as a result of the Biden Administration providing their names to the Taliban.

Other traitors have been tried and executed for far less.

Osama bin Laden was a fiend but no dummy. He understood American politics. More specifically, he understood Joe Biden:

In the letter dated May 2010, the al Qaeda 9/11 mastermind wrote he had no assassination plots against Biden because he deemed him “totally unprepared” to lead the United States.

More than a decade before Biden returned the launching pad for 9/11 to terrorist hands, along with $billions in advanced weapons and possibly tens of thousands of potential American hostages, bin Laden knew that Creepy Joe was far more useful to al Qaeda alive than dead.

Despite his smirking cluelessness and anti-American outlook, even Obama was perceived as more of a threat to Islamic terrorists. Killing the Moonbat Messiah was fine with the head of al Qaeda, if only because it would precipitate the catastrophe for America of a Biden presidency:

“Obama is the head of infidelity and killing him automatically will make Biden take over the presidency for the remainder of the term, as it is the norm over there.

“Biden is totally unprepared for that post, which will lead the US into a crisis.”

Prophecy fulfilled.

Biden went on to be virtually the only American who opposed killing bin Laden, after the master terrorist’s hiding place among our Pakistani frenemies had been discovered and Obama was vacillating about whether to take action.

Al Qaeda loves Biden, for obvious reasons. The patriots who defend the innocent from these maniacs feel differently. Former Navy SEAL Robert O’Neill, who killed bin Laden despite Biden’s objections, weighs in:

“If anything deserves an impeachment, it’s right now…”

Impeachment? O’Neill is too moderate. Democrats have rendered the concept of impeachment meaningless.

Biden should be tried for treason. If found guilty, he would warrant the harshest penalty for this crime. Handing $billions worth of American military equipment to a terrorist army that is at war with us is as clear cut as treason gets. Given that he unnecessarily left thousands of Americans in Taliban hands, the charge should be aggravated treason.

Rob O’Neill is not the only retired SEAL who is not a fan of the treasonous swamp rat we are asked to regard as Commander in Chief. Esteemed countermoonbat Jocko Willink gives the speech Biden would give were he worthy of his office:

Under the rule of Biden’s radical handlers and left-wing apparatchiks like Lloyd Austin and Mark Milley, the demoralization of the military proceeds as planned, just like the demoralization of local police. Any institution that could represent an impediment to the ultraleft fundamental transformation of America must be destroyed.

As Lara Logan has explained, the Afghanistan debacle was deliberate. Even if the demented puppet Biden has no idea what he is doing, his string-pullers do. The question is why they are doing it.

To find the answer, Christopher Skeet looks to Barack Obama, whom Biden served as a witless sidekick. Obama was elected on a platform of openly despising the nation he promised to “fundamentally transform” into a totally different country.

Via American Thinker:

Every time he could, Obama favored strict Islamist regimes over Western-friendly governments. Whenever overseas pro-democracy demonstrators flew American flags, Obama reflexively sided with their oppressors. He removed sanctions from Cuba and Iran and asked for nothing in return. The JCPOA, the Paris Accords, and the Trans-Pacific Partnership were specifically designed to weaken American power behind the flimsy guise of noble causes.

Anti-American Obamunists are among Biden’s puppeteers. Their policy of deliberately undermining America and its allies continues.

We just let the pro-democracy protestors in Hong Kong, Cuba, and Iran know that they don’t have our support, other than the occasional week-too-late hashtag. We just let our allies in Taiwan, Ukraine, South Korea, and Israel know that we folded like wet paper to illiterate pedophiles in pickup trucks, so good luck against the million-man professional armies who are busy reassessing the futility of your current ceasefires.

Biden’s handlers have stressed the symbolism of a disorderly retreat from Afghanistan, the 9/11 staging ground strategically located between our three most threatening adversaries, China, Iran, and Russia:

We abandoned Bagram Air Base on July 4, 2021. Biden originally planned to complete the withdraw on September 11th. These aren’t flukes, nor the clockwork stupidity of our government’s well-credentialed experts. These were specifically designed as symbolic humiliations of America, by people who hate America, who are being paid six figure salaries to do so by America.

Biden invited the entire Third World to pour into America and enjoy lavish benefits. Then he opened the border and it remains open, with devastating consequences that have only begun to unfold. This cannot be explained by incompetence, but only by treason. The same is true of Democrats’ unfunded, multi-$trillion frivolous spending spree that will crush the country with debt and inflate our savings to worthlessness. The same is true of Afghanistan.

The left, including its swamp bureaucrats who administer our wars, has no qualms with what happened in Kabul. They support Biden’s grotesque withdraw not in spite of its consequences for America, but because of them.

Local police and the military have been among the last institutions to hold out against leftist subversion. They remain pillars of Americanism and resistance to the progressive agenda. Democrats and their media have employed Black Lives Matter as a sledgehammer to smash the police. The military is being eaten from within by tapeworms like Lloyd Austin and Mark Milley. Like demonized and defunded local police, the armed forces are undergoing strategic demoralization, so as make it impossible to obtain quality recruits:

What young, idealistic American would enlist to defend a country that doesn’t let them win wars, forces them to retreat from 7th century quadrupeds, all the while having one’s own patriotism questioned and slandered by woke Pentagon careerists who blather about “white rage” and who remove Mahan and Clausewitz from the reading lists in favor of Ibram X. Kendi?

Not merely losing in Afghanistan but running away in disgrace, abandoning thousands of Americans as well as vast stores of weapons in the hands of terrorists sworn to our destruction, serves well to advance an Obama-style foreign policy by making it clear that the USA cannot be counted on to defend its allies from the aggression of tyrants.

Amplified across the world, the message of the left is: If America will sell you out to the Taliban, they won’t even think about lifting a finger to the Iranians and North Koreans, much less the Chinese and Russians.

It isn’t only the Taiwanese and Ukrainians who will suffer:

Our kids’ grandkids will be fighting the wars that result from this and will likely do it alone. Far from being a tragedy, our abandonment of Afghanistan was one of the left’s biggest foreign policy successes.

That may be overoptimistic. At the current pace of the decline Democrats are imposing, America won’t last that many generations.

Abraham Lincoln had it right:

On a tip from ABC of the ANC.

The apparent incompetence of the Democrats running our government is so extreme as to beggar belief. Biden couldn’t get his shoes on the right feet without assistance, but are the people who installed him in power and do his thinking for him really as inept as recent events suggest? Alarmingly, maybe not.

Lara Logan makes the case that the disastrous outcome in Afghanistan — complete with thousands of Americans left behind for the Taliban to take hostage — must have been intended:

“The United States government could change this even today. And they don’t do it.”

Why not? Logan doesn’t exactly have the answer, but her insightful questions might put curious journalists on the right track:

Incompetence or treason? Take them to Democrat extremes and they become nearly indistinguishable.

The Trump Administration had a plan in place to evacuate our people and our military equipment in the event of a sudden collapse into Taliban rule. The Biden Administration canceled it. Consequently, Americans are in extreme peril with no help on the way and a massive quantity of US military equipment has fallen into terrorist hands. This argues for deliberate malice over incompetence. It is inconceivable that no one in the White House knew this would happen.

As Andrea Widburg puts it,

It appears that [the USA] is being led by an incompetent moron, but it’s probably worse than that: she is led by people who wish to “fundamentally transform” America and place purported global goals above American well-being, and who don’t care how many people die to achieve their goals.

Meanwhile, as Biden’s moonbat handlers messily return al Qaeda’s 9/11 base to Taliban terrorist hands in a replay of Saigon 1975, they remind us that if we don’t like their pointlessly tyrannical Covid dictates, or if we don’t pretend not to notice that the 2020 election was hardly on the up and up, we are the ones who are terrorists:

The Democrat Party platform known as NBC Nightly News elaborates, via Not the Bee:

DHS says this new terrorism advisory is not based on any actual threats or plots, but it says there’s a rise in antigovernment rhetoric. Some of it is opposition to Covid public health rules like mask and vaccine measures. Some calls for violent action are based on claims of election fraud, or a belief that Donald Trump can be reinstated. And DHS says the coming 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks and religious holidays later this year could be catalysts for violence. The last terror advisory was issued in May. It expired today. This new one says domestic extremism remains a threat priority.

Americans patriotic enough not to support the Democrat Party are more a terror threat than the Taliban and their al Qaeda allies.

Maybe that’s because Biden has a strategy to deal with the implacable terrorists who just defeated the USA — beg for mercy and offer bribes:

American negotiators are trying to extract assurances from the Taliban that they will not attack the U.S. Embassy in Kabul if the extremist group takes over the country’s government and ever wants to receive foreign aid, three American officials said.

Even now these idiots think they can bribe Islamic terrorists into not making them look bad by butchering Americans. As Daniel Greenfield notes, it didn’t work in Benghazi and it won’t work here.

The next 9/11 will arrive soon, brought to you by Joe Biden and those who voted for him.

If one headline is most emblematic of Biden and the ignominious decline he personifies, this is it:

Global embarrassment will continue to escalate until Democrats have been pried loose from power.
