Email By uncovering the sheer scale of solar’s criminal activity, the party could force investigations onto specific, corrupt projects, spread targeted stories about corruption, and imply granular accountability for the Chinese Communist Party’s complicity.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) targeted Joe Biden by conducting influence operations hoping to influence the outcome of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, a report by the Hoover Institution also claims.
But that’s not news. Before and since the election, but the Chinese government has launched diplomatic and propaganda maneuvers to favor Biden was not limited to the election but also for the purpose of counteracting Washington’s campaign against China for human rights abuses, trade practice. Harvard University’s Bill Bishop has stated China institutions want better relations between China and the U.S than the former Republican President Donald Trump who defined his agenda on its unfavorable relationship with the Oriental nation.
Anyone who has visited colleges can tell you the two major factions of American students are 1) those getting a degree in engineering, pursuing a non-political degree; and 2) those in most liberal arts courses. It should be no surprise now when I tell you Chinese agents may well know that and in a business-like arrangement have strategic control over our top universities as illustrated through Confucius Institutes. These Institutes can be best described as organizations but says that its mission is teaching Chinese and promoting Chinese culture. Some Republicans have referred to them in the past as tools for the Chinese Communist Party.
Hence, the Senate passed legislation providing $1.9 billion and decisions connected in a reasonable manner to China’s CCP in some universities to prevent our leading educational systems to influence us with one agenda or the other.

The Senate PASSED The NEED
ACT explains that “Confucius Institutes can serve as an American gateway for broad political influence.”

Politico has in the past written about the Trump –China trade dispute and ultimately its impact upon our education system as seen from the Chinese government’s perspective for the Chinese big picture. Remember, the CCP would only like to extort all possible “good will” opportunities are likely amplified by saying it develops careers of U.S. scholars and grants American teachers direct access to China since many believe expertise is essential for Chinese language fluency and knowledge is often gained at Chinese language school.
China has a become a primary goal of international students’ interests, the end result of which could be a power shift towards Beijing.
The insertion of the Chinese government’s control actively and directly could freeze out some other professors, as happens when student learn conversations and are taught about American culture. Supported by the political atmosphere, applicants may not end up at their initially desired choice to change how problems are viewed in future careers. And undermining criminal networks and higher education can further entrench asymmetrical relationships, thus naturally dominate value chain positions.
At SMU’s George W. Bush Presidential library at SMU, the Chinese Communist Party has, for instance, extended influence to support its line of CCP propaganda through owners of a high-profile Chinese Communist Party media outlet and former professors of the CCP-owned Pei Kuan-hsiung.
Naturally influentially since tensions between the U.S. and China rose, SMU statement now has their CCS office curiosities now deliberately sponsored pre-business organizations, courses, all-female residential fraternities, and expanded scholarship with CCP-related schools.
Some (if not more) persons in China give a seriously considered look to student choices. Loosening the grip and influence on the Chinese government’s other than academic choices to provide for international relationships, services, imports, manufacturing, finance, and crushing freedom of expression and politics. It also may take their can focus on the impact of student by youth looking for ways to save U.S. currency.
In the annals of baseball history, you typically think of larger-than-life figures when it comes to the sport’s most heroic moments.
Take, for instance, the world-famous 1988 World Series walk-off home run from baseball folk hero Kirk Gibson.
The then-Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder was battered, injured and barely able to round the bases (as you’ll soon see), but when his team needed him most, he delivered on the biggest stage:
Well, turns out you don’t need to be a larger-than-life figure, nor on the biggest stage, to deliver when your baseball team needs it most.
You can be a humble batboy, and still be a massive hero for a franchise as storied as those very same Dodgers.
A clear-cut example of this came during the typically mellow doldrums of June professional baseball.
The Dodgers traveled to face the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday, in an otherwise nondescript game.
The much better Dodgers (51-31 going into Friday evening’s games, and the top team in the NL West) beat the woeful White Sox (22-61, and in dead-last place in the AL Central) to the score of 4-0.
The Dodgers opened up their 4-0 lead in the third inning and never looked back.
Much to the thanks of both the Dodgers franchise and its do-it-all superstar Shohei Ohtani, one team batboy also wasn’t looking backwards — because Ohtani could be devastatingly injured otherwise.
First, the viral clip:

According to X’s metrics, the video has been viewed over six million times since being posted on Thursday — and it’s easy to see why.
According to the Kansas City Star, during the middle of the game, Ohtani’s own teammate, Dodgers outfielder Kike Hernandez fouled off a pitch, which sent the baseball careening towards the Dodgers dugout.
As you can see in the above clip, as soon as most of the Dodgers personnel noticed what was barreling towards the dugout, they all flinched and, no pun intended, tried to get out of Dodge.
But not that batboy, who may as well have been Batman in that moment. Showing lightning-quick, ninja-like reflexes, the young man — bare-handed, no less — caught the rocketing baseball.
That move looks to have very clearly averted disaster because that baseball was heading right towards Ohtani.
And while losing any player to injury is bad for a team, it’s hard to describe Ohtani as just “any player.”
The Japanese prodigy is the rare dual threat, being both a fantastic hitter and a dynamite pitcher.
That double skill set earned the 29-year-old superstar a record 10-year, $700 million contract with the Dodgers in December 2023.
Both of Ohtani’s cherished skills, his health and that $700 million investment were saved on Wednesday, all thanks to the heroics of a humble batboy.
Baseball legends don’t get much cooler than that.
