Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about war and peace, democracy, the climate catastrophe, and economic and racial justice, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be TRIPLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

VP Pence Accuses China of Interfering in Midterms, Undermining Trump

HeadlineOct 05, 2018

Meanwhile, Vice President Mike Pence accused China of interfering in the U.S. midterm elections in order to undermine President Trump and his agenda.

Vice President Mike Pence: “The American people deserve to know. In response to the strong stand that President Trump has taken, Beijing is pursuing a comprehensive and coordinated campaign to undermine support for the president, our agenda and our nation’s most cherished ideals.”

Pence’s warning to Beijing comes amid a growing U.S.-China trade war and as the Pentagon is reportedly planning a massive show of force in November, with warships and planes set to carry out exercises near China’s territorial waters in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait.
