Communist Chinese flag raised over Philadelphia City Hall: The communists are in the building. Almost 250 years after courageous Americans signed the Declaration of Independence at Independence Hall in Philadelphia, cowardly anti-American leftists have raised the Chinese Communist flag over City Hall to celebrate the founding of one of the most evil regimes ever seen on earth. Pennsylvania State Senator Doug Mastriano objected and called on City Hall to "say no to raising a flag ... that oppresses people." The House Select Committee on China Chairman John Moolenaar warned Philadelphia not to raise the flag as well, but these objections were not heeded. The state of America's great cities has never been sorrier, and the sooner liberty-loving Americans wake up to that fact, the better.
CCP influence in AZ? Back in May and June, Arizona Democrat Gov. Katie Hobbs vetoed two bipartisan bills aimed at blocking China's growing infiltration of the Grand Canyon State. The two bills would have banned healthcare and research facilities from using genetic sequencing equipment and software from Chinese enterprises that the Pentagon has deemed to be "Chinese military companies," as well as blocked Beijing from owning land in the state. Weeks after her vetoes, according to campaign finance records, a CCP businessman, Pin Ni, wrote a $10,000 check to the Democratic Governors Association, a primary financial supporter of Hobbs's 2026 reelection campaign. Michael Lucci, founder of the national security group State Armor, observes, "Hobbs has vetoed more legislation to protect her state from the CCP than any other governor in the country." Interestingly, both current Democrat gubernatorial candidates for New Jersey (Mikie Sherrill) and Virginia (Abigail Spanberger) have received large donations from Pin.
