Caylan Ford says progressive schooling has become rooted in the Marxist belief that the world is broken and must be transformed. She says children are losing a loving and humble relationship with reality itself. “It’s the Marxist line that, ‘Philosophy hitherto has always sought to describe the world. The real purpose is to transform it.’” “This is the idea behind progressive education.” “It’s not a loving, humble approach to reality.” “It’s kind of a spiteful, hateful ‘Reality’s bad, let’s transform it.’” Caylan Ford

This Huawei ad I just walked by at Munich airport hit me like a ton of bricks. Huawei watch? HUAWEI HEALTH? Delivering your intimate, real-time location, behavioral & physiological data (heart rate??) directly to the CCP is absolutely insane. I hadn't even considered how many of these watches must be on people hands right now, and how powerful a tool of espionage (the next-level invasive data gathering!) the CCP has at its disposal. Grok, what countries have the biggest usage per capita of huawei watch? Also, considering what I wrote earlier in this post, and given that Huawei is bound by Chinese law to share all data it has access to with the the Chinese government (and not disclose it is doing so), what impact is there for personal privacy and security for users of Huawei watch?

Beethoven’s “Missa Solemnis” at Kennedy Center The Kennedy Center about to begin… I’ve never seen this masterpiece live before. Unbelievably psyched. One cannot help but be elevated!

“We’re bringing back religion in our country and we’re bringing it back, as I say, bigger and better and stronger than ever before.” —President Trump in the The White House Rose Garden Incredible to have been here to witness this event. This is just before he signed his executive order establishing the Religious Liberty Commission safeguarding and promoting religious freedom in America.

“You either need to transition your child or you don’t get to keep your child.” Attorney Erin Friday says California Child Protective Services can threaten parents who refuse to use their child’s preferred pronouns. She told me she feared calling the police when her 13 year old daughter ran away because she worried CPS would take her child. “My daughter, who was 13 years old, just starting high school, was secretly socially transitioned at school.” “The school started to call my daughter by a male name, use male pronouns.” “When I called the school and told them to stop, that next week Child Protective Services was at my door.” “The next day, the police.” “That was an immediate alert to me that the school wants to parent my child.” “If I didn’t follow and call my daughter a boy, Child Protective Services may come and take my child away.” “Parents in Southern California had lost custody of their children because they wouldn’t transition their daughter.” “I already had a black mark, and a few months later my daughter ran away.” “The normal thing for a parent to do is to ask law enforcement to help find your child… but I couldn’t make that phone call.” “Because Child Protective Services can swoop in anytime and take my child.” “It’s coercion at its highest level.” “You don’t get to parent your child.” “This is America. This is insane.” Erin Friday, Esq.

37 years after the Tiananmen Square massacre, the Chinese Communist Party still fears the memory of that night, because it reveals who they truly are. On June 4 at the Tiananmen Memorial in Washington, DC, I spoke about the slaughter that should have changed everything, the decades of quiet accommodation that followed, and why standing with those who still resist the regime’s demand for total (actual or performative) submission is more urgent than ever. I also highlighted a remarkable new series of never-before-seen photographs from June 4, 1989, published today on the front page of The Epoch Times. Please take a moment to view them (the link is in the thread below!) Here are my full remarks 37 years after the Tiananmen Square massacre, at the Victims of Communism (Victims of Communism) Memorial, Washington, DC, June 4, 2026: Good evening, everybody. My name is Jan Jekielek. I'm the senior editor at the The Epoch Times and author of a book titled Killed to Order: China's Organ Harvesting Industry and the True Nature of America's Biggest Adversary. And this nature is something that we haven't gotten right, and we should have when Tiananmen Square happened, when the massacre happened. So, tonight we remember the victims of the Tiananmen Square massacre, the students, the workers, and the ordinary citizens murdered on June 4, 1989 for daring to imagine a freer China. On the front page of The Epoch Times today we are publishing a whole series of never-before-seen photos that were contributed to us recently. They were taken by a state media photographer 37 years ago. These are very powerful images. I encourage you to check it out. The person who put these together, Eva Fu (Eva Fu), she's actually here doing an article on this event, so I hope you get a chance to speak with her later today. It's a striking historical fact that the same day, June 4, 1989, Poland held its first semi-free parliamentary election since the communist era. Solidarity won a landslide victory, and hope began to spread across Eastern Europe, and the Berlin Wall fell. In Poland, people chose freedom, but in China, the regime chose slaughter. The massacre itself was monstrous, but hope died twice that year, first in the blood of the streets of Beijing, and again when the United States responded not with sustained accountability but with quiet accommodation. Just weeks after the killings, the administration at the time secretly dispatched the National Security Advisor and the Deputy Secretary of State to Beijing. Their mission was to signal to the Chinese leadership that America would ride out the storm of public outrage and work to restore the strategic relationship. Most Americans never knew about this back-channel. For decades, we pursued a policy of engagement, telling ourselves the comforting story that trade and money would change China, that economic integration would liberalize the regime and make it a responsible stakeholder. The opposite happened: The Chinese Communist Party changed us. It turned us, it turned our openness into vulnerability. It captured influence in our institutions. It made us economically dependent on a system built on lies, on repression, and on brutality. And then, in the year 2000 the regime launched something even darker, a large-scale industrialized forced organ harvesting industry built on the bodies of Falun Gong practitioners, which they had started persecuting the year before. The crime rested on two pillars, very vicious dehumanizing propaganda, and also a vast system of mass arbitrary detention that eventually ended up serving as the source of the organs. For 14 or 15 years, the world largely turned away, and emboldened by this, the regime expanded the same machinery of dehumanization and mass incarceration to the Uyghur people, and perhaps even to others. This is why the memory of Tiananmen remains so urgent. The Chinese Communist Party has never abandoned its core demand, total submission, or at least the appearance of it. Anyone who refuses, whether through faith, through conscience, or simple human dignity, becomes a target. That is why we must stand with those who still resist: • Falun Gong practitioners who continue to practice and speak the truth, • and the millions who have joined the Quit the CCP or the Tuidang Movement to renounce their ties to the communist party, the youth league and the young pioneers, • the white paper protesters of 2022 including brave young people like Zhang Junjie who stood alone in Beijing holding a blank sheet of paper a silent indictment of censorship and tyranny and paid a terrible price, • Christians worshiping in underground churches, • Tibetans demanding their culture and faith, • and of course Uyghurs and Kazakhs enduring camps and surveillance, • and every individual across China who chooses conscience over performative or actual loyalty. Their courage is living proof that the spirit the regime tried to crush in 1989 is not dead today. We are finally beginning to move in the right direction, I think, recognizing the true nature of the threat and starting to correct the mistakes of all-out engagement, but we must go further by remembering Tiananmen and standing firmly with all those who resist. We honor the dead and keep the flame of hope alive. Thank you.

Jacob Siegel just delivered a warning that every American needs to hear: The power of “ruling class institutions” is quietly replacing the will of the American people in Washington. “The banking institutions.” “The large medical organizations.” “The media.” “The universities.” And this new “top-down” system built the “infrastructure that makes censorship possible.” Here’s how it happened, according to Siegel: “This concept of the ‘whole of society’ [approach] actually begins in the world of developmental organizations like the United Nations.” “It’s used to refer to breakneck modernization programs” in developing countries. “The idea was that instead of appealing to the public or to civil society, which presumably doesn’t exist, you coordinate through ‘whole of society.’” “Which is really a euphemism for the most powerful actors.” “The ruling class institutions.” “And then it jumps this concept… into the American domestic political system.” “It happens in the first Obama administration.” “Rather than necessarily needing to build up popular support by appealing to not only the general population, but also to local political parties, instead what you could do is… coordinate support of the most powerful institutions.” “By getting the media, the universities, the banking institutions, the large medical organizations, the insurance companies… on board, you could then impose this top-down policy.” Jacob Siegel
