Text messages between Gotion Vice President Chuck Thelen and former Green Charter Township Supervisor Jim Chapman confirm Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) hosted a member of the Chinese Communist Party at the governor’s summer residence on Mackinac Island.

Thelen was organizing a visit to Green Charter Township for Gotion High-tech Chairman Zhen Li in mid-2023, according to texts recently made public from a lawsuit involving the company and township.

In an April 2024 Q & A, Thelen was asked if Zhen Li had ever visited Mecosta County (in Michigan) and he answered affirmatively, but went beyond that: “We’ve also met with some higher officials in Lansing. We met some higher officials in another location during the summer time because those officials were on vacation so we went to where they were,” Thelen said.

In the text messages between Thelen and Chapman, Thelen said the “chairman” wanted to visit July 12th or 13th. “I hope to visit the (proposed Gotion) site early afternoon then (Ferris State University) for a short tour and then we have to meet Gretchen (Whitmer) on Mackinac Island,” Thelen wrote. Photographs that circulated throughout the Green Charter Township community on July 11 showed several representatives of Gotion in the area that day. Zhen Li is founder of Gotion High-Tech and Gotion Inc. is the wholly owned U.S. subsidiary. He is a former government employee and participant in the local communist government leadership.

Whitmer gave Gotion $715 million in Michigan taxpayer cash and incentives.

While Democrats accuse Conservatives of so-called violent rhetoric, they are going full steam ahead with chilling examples of escalating just that against former president Donald Trump.

During this week’s episode of The View, co-host Whoopi Goldberg compared Trump to a bug.

As Goldberg pointed to the table, she made buzzing sounds, portraying Trump as an insect that wouldn’t go away.

Joe Biden then responded by whacking his hand down on the table, demonstrating killing that “bug.”

You can’t make this up.

Elswhere in the interview, Goldberg praised Biden’s actions, saying, “That’s what was needed, and you did it, and I just want to say thank you” as the president grinned taking in the undeserved praise.

In July, Trump narrowly escaped death in Butler, Pennsylvania. Then, just under two months later, – a second assassin tried his luck at the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Surely these events would encourage hosts at major daytime talk shows to choose their words wisely?

It seems they are all hellbent on dehumanising Trump to escalate tensions further. Perhaps they are trying to get the American population accustomed to the idea of Trump’s death?

The one thing you can take away from this, is whatever the Democrats accuse someone of doing, you can bet your bottom dollar they are doing just that.

Democrats and Republicans in the Michigan House of Representatives passed a bipartisan amendment to the state’s K-12 budget containing a provision that encourages students to report on their parents for “improperly” stored firearms, the Detroit Free Press reported.

School leaders around the state were skeptical of the fiscal year 2025 school budget that the state legislature passed and Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed in July, and so the Democrats rammed through HB 5503, a budget amendment to the 2025 budget, with the help of some Republicans.

Addressing those demands for more money, lawmakers moved to sweeten the deal for public schools by adding $126 million, $125 million of which is allocated to mental health programs, which are often ways in which public schools promote the LGBT agenda, and school safety programs.

The final $1 million in the bill–ostensibly a part of the school safety aspect of the bill–will create a “tip line” number which children could call in order to anonymously tell on their parents for engaging in alleged improper firearm storage practices.

“This amendment was inserted into the conference committee report of the Michigan School Aid bill (HB 5503 CR-1) today,’ the Michigan Coalition for Responsible Gun Owners tweeted. “The conference committee report is expected to be voted on immediately in the House and Senate with no testimony allowed.”

The tweet continued: “This amendment would allow ISDs to establish a tip hotline for students to anonymously report parents who improperly store a firearm. While we all support responsible firearms storage, this is the type of thing we’d expect to see from a totalitarian police state.”

Despite the alleged safety provision, the bill passed Tuesday in the state House by a 98-11 margin, and the Senate by a 23-15 margin.

The House Oversight Committee has launched an investigation into the Biden-Harris administration’s alleged use of taxpayer-funded resources to fly Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to Pennsylvania, a key battleground state ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

The inquiry, led by Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.), centers around accusations that the administration may have misused government assets to assist Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign, Fox News reports.

In letters addressed to the White House, the Pentagon, and the Department of Justice (DOJ), Comer requested documents and information regarding the administration’s decision to transport Zelensky to Pennsylvania.

“Chairman Comer today is opening an investigation into the Biden-Harris Administration using taxpayer-funded resources to fly Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to Pennsylvania to campaign for Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

In 2019, the Democrat-controlled House impeached President Donald J. Trump for abuse of power under the theory that he attempted to use a foreign leader—Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky—to benefit his 2020 presidential campaign, despite a lack of any evidence of wrongdoing on the part of President Trump.

Now, the Biden-Harris Administration is flying the same foreign leader on an American-taxpayer-funded flight to Pennsylvania, a battleground state for Harris’s campaign.

If the Biden-Harris Administration attempted to use a foreign leader to benefit the Vice President’s presidential campaign, this is an abuse of power and misuse of taxpayer dollars.” – Oversight Committee

Former President Donald Trump visited Sprankles Neighborhood Market in Kittanning, Pennsylvania, where he surprised a local mother of three with a generous gift during his stop.

Trump, who is focusing on key swing states as the 2024 presidential race heats up, greeted shoppers, engaged with store employees, and even helped out a struggling shopper by lowering her grocery bill.

As Trump interacted with customers in the store, he noticed a mother checking out at the register. “Here, it’s going to go down a little bit,” Trump told the woman, handing her a $100 bill. “It just went down 100 bucks,” he added, referring to her grocery total.

The grateful woman replied, “Thank you so much,” as Trump said his goodbyes and thanked those around him for their support. “We’ll do that for you from the White House, alright?” Trump added with a wave.

In addition to helping out the mother, Trump supported the local business by purchasing a large bag of popcorn. “Oh, look, I gotta get some. We gotta get it,” Trump remarked as he handed the popcorn to his team.

When another customer told Trump that his mother had just bought the same bag, Trump asked, “Is this stuff good?” The customer confirmed, “She says it’s the best.” Trump humorously replied, “If it is, I’ll be sending, I’ll be in Washington D.C., hopefully in the Oval Office, I’ll send for popcorn.”

During the visit, Trump spoke with the store owner about the challenges small businesses are facing due to inflation.

The store owner explained how rising prices have affected his sales. “You know, I’m very proud because every year we went up, except for the last three years because of this inflation,” the owner told Trump. “Prices are up, but our sales are down, so we’ve had to get super creative on how to use our space.”

Trump acknowledged the owner’s struggles, responding, “Prices go up, yet your sales are down.” The store owner added, “It’s been brutal. Thankfully, I have a great crew, a great staff, my family, we work together.”

Donald Trump is witnessing seismic increases in support across swing states and Democratic strongholds, according to a New York Times/Sienna poll.

The Republican leads Kamala Harris in Arizona, Georgia, and North Carolina – states which the former president needs in his bid to retake the White House. He leads by five percentage points in Arizona, four in Georgia, and two in North Carolina.

Mainstream media outlets described the survey as Trump’s best poll results in weeks. His once universal lead over President Joe Biden diminished as Harris enjoyed a honeymoon period of heightened popularity, although her support seems to be dwindling according to the latest major poll.

Intriguingly, Trump has also made gains in New York. Although the state is all-but certain to vote Democrat, the former president could inflict the worst performance for a DNC candidate since 1988 on Harris if the poll is to be believed. Trump trails the Vice President by 12 percentage points; by contrast, Biden won New York by 23 in 2020.

The poll’s findings left many Republicans feeling optimistic.

Others wondered about the impact such a trend may have on the swing states.
