As we sit on the verge of China’s “reunification” with Taiwan it’s good to get a little refresher on its History. As you attempt to decide if Taiwan should be recognized as a sovereign nation keep the following in mind, Taiwan has its own constitution, democratically-elected leaders, an active military of 300,000 and has elected a female president. If the Democrats really cared about identity politics they would back Taiwan simply for electing a female president. It’s time for Biden and his administration to get back to peace through strength policies and stop looking foolish on the world stage before conflicts get out of control.

The Time tries to cover for Hillary Clinton boasting about the health benefits and her collection of hot sauces. If that is true why not say that in the interview?

Direct Quotes: In a radio interview Monday morning, Hillary Clinton was asked to name something she carries with her everywhere she goes. “Hot sauce,” she answered. “Yeah.” The Clinton campaign has confirmed to TIME the type and brand of hot sauce now toted by the Democratic front runner for the presidential nomination: Ninja Squirrel, a Sriracha from the in-house brand of Texas-based Whole Foods Market. “And we continue to carry chili flakes and jalapeños around,” says Clinton campaign spokesperson Nick Merrill.
