House Republicans Refer Liz Cheney For Federal Criminal Investigation
House Republicans recommended disgraced ex-Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney face a criminal investigation related to “witness tampering” as vice chair of the illegally established and since disbanded Select Committee on Jan. 6.
Previous documents released by congressional investigators reviewing the Jan. 6 panel’s work revealed Cheney coordinated with the Select Committee’s star witness, Cassidy Hutchinson, using the encrypted Signal app. The pair communicated to circumvent Hutchinson’s own attorney, Stefan Passantino, whom the Jan. 6 Committee ultimately targeted with an operation intended to strip him of his law license. Passantino was cleared of any misconduct following multiple investigations from ethics watchdogs.
In the House interim report released on Tuesday, GOP lawmakers led by Barry Loudermilk of Georgia cited Cheney’s communication with Hutchinson as a basis for referring the former congresswoman for a criminal investigation run by the Justice Department.

Kristen Welker and Other Media Figures Engage in Left-Wing Activism
Journalists and Media and Their Role as Left-Wing Activists
Kristen Welker, a reporter for NBC News and host of the network's "Meet the Press" show, recently came under scrutiny for her role as a left-wing political activist during her interview with Donald Trump after he was elected president. His left-wing political bias is repeated and was demonstrated again by his way of approaching questions and his comments contradictory to Trump's answers. Some even accused her of acting as a politically mediatic judge for using the same leftist rhetoric as Trump's foes with questions more akin to accusations than journalistic inquiries into the president's plans for his second term.
Welker's performance as host of "Meet the Press" left no doubt about journalistic impartiality and the role of the media in shaping public opinion. The incident highlighted journalists' challenges in maintaining objectivity in covering political events, especially in a highly polarized environment. It also sparked a debate about the influence of media bias on the democratic process. Kristen Welker's performance in "Meet the Press" can be seen as a reflection of the general tendency of media-tainted journalism to manipulate language with the aim of influencing the political landscape of a left leaning towards neo-Marxist tendencies rather than credibly reporting on news and events that have occurred. As a journalist working for a network as important as NBC News, Welker and other journalists are expected to uphold professional standards of objectivity and impartiality. However, in the age of social media and 24/7 news cycles, the pressure to generate ratings and attract viewers can sometimes lead journalists to prioritize the value of adopting far-left politics over journalistic integrity.
The Abandonment of Journalistic Ethics
One of the key figures in the field of media ethics is Walter Lippmann, a celebrated American journalist and political commentator. Lippmann argued that the media should act as the government's gatekeeper and provide citizens with accurate and impartial information so that they can make informed decisions. He believed that journalists have a duty to serve the public interest and hold rulers accountable for their actions.
Kristen Welker's landmark interviews with President Trump highlight the challenges journalists face in maintaining Lippmann's view of the media as neutral arbiters of truth. In the age of fake news and partisan echo chambers, the role of journalists in shaping public discourse has become increasingly complex as they collude with the ideas of the neo-Marxist-leaning left to indoctrinate and censor the ideas of political adversaries. The rise of social media has also allowed political leaders to counter the censorship of information monopolies. In other cases, they circumvent traditional media and communicate directly with their supporters, further blurring the line between news and biased political propaganda.

Current Events With Julio M. Shiling: Changes Are Coming With Trump
Leer en Español
Talking with the political scientist, writer and director of the political forum and digital publication, Patria de MartĂ, Julio M. Shiling is a learning experience, an invitation to reflect. With a Master's degree in Political Science, he is a lucid, observant man, attentive to reality, always seeking to glimpse the background of our society.
In light of the changes that are coming with the election of Donald Trump as the 47th president, we wanted to know his opinion on the future that could be glimpsed for the United States, the world, and his observations regarding Cuba.
—Donald Trump's election victory has given him almost total power, controlling both chambers of Congress. How could that power change the course of the United States, and in what sense?
—Donald Trump and the Republican Party received an extraordinary mandate from American society, which is reflected in their control of both chambers, and we can say that they also enjoy an ideological majority in the Supreme Court. That is rarely seen in history.
The mandate is clearly to reverse cultural socialism through different manifestations as seen in these 4 years in schools, and I am not necessarily referring to university education, but to what is primary education. Courses with teachings that start from neo-Marxist premises, in the work on what we know as Diversity Equity Inclusion, which are neo-Marxist forms that contradict the principles of equality before the law and propose mechanisms of discrimination, racism, and sexism, and certain courses that clash with the precepts that are protected precisely by the Civil Rights Law. The second part of this mandate focuses on dismantling the administrative state, what some call the deep state, a series of agencies with enormous powers, even police-like, such as the FBI, the CIA, the Internal Revenue Department, the Environmental Protection Agency, the State Department and intelligence agencies of the armed forces. The third domestic purpose is to strengthen basic freedoms. We have seen these past four years and we can say that the measures in many states against basic freedoms have led many to understand that the United States has lost a great deal of ground in freedom of expression and religious freedoms. We will see measures to strengthen those basic freedoms and strengthen institutions.

Marco Rubio's Mission: Confronting Authoritarianism from Havana to Beijing
OP/ED: Michael Lima of Democratic Spaces contends that Rubio’s confirmation and a new Canadian government could redefine North American engagement in Latin America, fostering democratic reforms.
Confirming Senator Marco Rubio as Secretary of State would mark a pivotal shift in U.S. diplomacy, signaling a robust stand against authoritarian regimes worldwide. Known for his unyielding opposition to oppression and his extensive experience on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Rubio would become the first Cuban American and Hispanic to lead U.S. foreign policy. His unique insights into authoritarianism and staunch advocacy for democracy could bring a transformative approach to critical regions, especially Latin America and China.
In Cuba and Latin America, Rubio’s personal and political insights stand out. He has consistently argued that Cuba’s suffering stems not from the U.S. embargo but from its entrenched communist system, rooted in Soviet-era policies and repressive practices. During Trump’s first term, Rubio played a key advisory role in implementing sanctions against the Cuban regime, including restrictions on U.S. companies and citizens engaging in transactions with Cuban military-controlled entities and the designation of Cuba as a State Sponsor of Terrorism. If confirmed, Rubio would likely expand this hard-line approach, further isolating the regime and solidifying the U.S. stance against authoritarianism.
