hese weird rescission things, apparently you can cut the budget on stuff with only a 50 percent majority, you know, 51 percent. And so the entire reason that there were not a lot of DOGE cuts in this one is that the place you would do that would be in the larger one. But they did have a bunch of cuts. And now it turns out that there's something called a parliamentarian. How many of you knew that…

Venezuela is sending us Tren de Aragua or have the Mexican cartels have already made inroads into the mainland US and they've all got these sleeper cells and spies and stuff.
But when was the last time you heard that Russia was doing any of those things, like trying to put a lot of Russian immigrants into the country so they could become sleeper cells or steal our IP? Are they not doing it or do they just not get caught or do we just not mention them for some reason? Isn't that weird? If it works, everybody would be doing it. You know, Mexico would be sending their scientists and Venezuela would be I don't know. There's something weird about the fact that only China is doing this thing. If it works, I mean, if it works, they should all be trying it.
Well, Laura Loomer has another exclusive. And I have to compliment her for carving out a valuable space in the internet world. And what she seems the best at in terms of her scoops is finding out whose sibling, whose children and/or spouses are involved in things that the politician might be making decisions about. And here's another one.
So according to Laura Loomer the John Cornyn who's a Texas senator his daughter lobbies for China related to Alibaba at the same time that the Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is targeting Alibaba for privacy violations. But so the daughter of the US senator for Texas is working for a Chinese company and not just a Chinese company but one of the biggest or is it the biggest? I don't know. Now does that seem like a problem to you? It does to me. Yeah, does to me.
So another Laura Loomer exclusive. She's really got that category nailed down. And according to Blaze Media, Carlos Garcia is writing about this. There was a Democrat-leaning group called Code Pink that's now threatening an internet user named Data Republican. I've talked about Data Republican. It's a woman who is very good at data analysis and especially linked to political events. So Code Pink is threatening her because she apparently suggested that they got some funding from Chinese sources.
So Code Pink is threatening a lawsuit and they say that they do not get money from China or the Chinese Communist Party or any foreign government. So that's what Code Pink says. They don't get money from China, Chinese Communist Party or any foreign country. So do you think Data Republican is wrong? What do you think? Do you think Code Pink is telling you the truth and Data Republican is wrong?
Well, Data Republican decided that the best approach to this threat of lawsuit is simply to dump everything she knew and you can make up your own mind. So here's what we've learned. Apparently Code Pink is getting some significant funding from a rich guy who a social activist and businessman Neville Singham. He's a billionaire who is already under congressional investigation for possibly violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act that be FARA on behalf of the Chinese government.
Oh, so it didn't come from China, the funding, and it didn't come from the Chinese Communist Party, and it didn't come from a foreign country. True, but it might have come from a billionaire who likes to do things on behalf of China. So how do you score that one? Do you score that one as yeah that's Chinese funding or is it Chinese funding that's deniable because when Code Pink denied it they did not say and we don't take money from any billionaires who are connected to China's government. They left that part out. So I don't know maybe they'll come back.
And then apparently one of the things that Code Pink has done is push some propaganda saying that the Uyghurs were basically dangerous. So total Chinese propaganda that nobody would do unless some Chinese force was giving them money.
In other China versus US news, Elon Musk pointed to a chart on X and said, "Remember this chart?" And what it was was a chart that showed how much electricity China is pulling online with new power plants, etc., versus the US. And if you look at the US's number since the 90s, it's up a little bit, but it's almost a flat line. We have about as much electricity in the US as we had at the end of the 90s. And that's been a while.
Now, you might say, "But Scott, that's good news because we've learned to conserve on electricity." But then you look at the China line and it's not quite straight up but it's pretty close and it has passed us by a lot. So China is adding electricity like crazy and the US is still just getting ready to add electricity by making it easier to build nuclear power plants and reducing regulations and stuff. It'll make a difference, but we're way behind.
If you're trying to predict the future, like which countries will succeed, one of the best ways to predict the future is how much energy they can produce domestically. That is really predictive of how your country is going to go. So China's got a big advantage there. But they also have a big country, so they need a lot of electricity. So there's a reason that they're also meeting basic needs. But that's worrisome.
And then the other thing would be birth rate. So if you asked Elon Musk what are the big risks, geopolitical risks an

d country risks, etc., he would probably say low birth rate is a gigantic problem in every developed country apparently. And not having enough electricity for AI might be the other gigantic variable that it would be easy to overlook if you don't follow the news pretty closely. So yeah, have more babies and more electricity and you're going to be in good shape. According to the Washington Free Bea…
