Frank Chow: Asian- American Political Pundit

 I have tomorrow off. I'm moving. After last year, this feels like a new beginning. A chance to start fresh and establish roots. I'm starting to find more like-minded folks here. Don't get me wrong, it's like combing a dessert with a toothpick. But the few I've friended have helped get me through the mud. Not sure I'll have time to post. Have a lovely weekend, y'all.  Here are your highlights:   Wildfires break out in Kansas and Oklahoma .  Another US carrier heads to the Middle East . More Wag the Dog? Or escalation to support Israel?  The latest threat to higher education. Accreditation .  As a sneakerhead, this isn't a surprise. Why New Balance is beating Nike .  ICE deported a sick 2-month-old baby .  USE AI OR LOSE YOUR PROMOTION . The corporate world is sick. What a toxic world we're currently living in.  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

 A successful New Year was had by all! I'm full and so tired, but we had a lovely time. I watched Mulan (live action) with the girls and ended up going to bed early. This never happens! I'd love to visit China one day, but I doubt I'd be welcomed, given my continued views on Taiwan and Hong Kong. One day. Until then, I'll watch YouTube walking tours.  Here are your highlights:  Mental exercises may cut dementia by decades .  The RFK Jr. Way - Raw camel milk, Chlorine Dioxide, Chelating Agents to cure Autism! Crank stuff.  Zuckerberg to take the stand in social media case .  AOC and others in Munich . This is something to watch, as foreign policy is the next step up in AOC's career.  Every country but the US is going after the Epstein Class. France is the latest .  Rubio is a fuckin' clown .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

  Happy New Year! I'm rockin' my new Adidas x Clot shoes at work and making dumplings. China celebrated with Kung Fu robots . It's the year of the horse, and it's a Fire Horse. So get ready for some energy, fast-paced action!  Here are your highlights:  RIP Rev. Jesse Jackson . I think others have said this, but there's no Barack Obama without Jesse Jackson. I wasn't old enough to remember him running for president, but I knew he was a trailblazer.  Trump is ruining our transition from gas to EV vehicles . And it's so stupid.  Shooting at a Rhode Island ice rink .  CBS continues its shameful demise. Stephen Colbert was told to shut down an interview .  Impeach Noem .  One bright spot about the ICE warehouses is that local communities are fighting back .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

 We might have a weekend of decent weather. Time to touch grass! To the people of Minnesota, we see you. We know ICE is still harassing folks. They're relentless. If you can, donate through  Stand with Minnesota .  Here are your highlights: Four people lift off to the International Space Station .  Mexico might lose its measles elimination status .  Russell Vought stole US AID funds to use for security . What an asshole.  Our taxpayer dollars are funding private prisons that sexually assault immigrants .  Another aircraft carrier has been sent to the Middle East .  Epstein's connection to higher ed, Columbia under fire again .  I am Frank Chow, and I approve this message. 

The passing of James Van Der Beek has me a bit heartbroken. I grew up on Dawson's Creek. Our friends would skip the cafeteria and watch VHS episodes in our drama class. The show was like a soap opera to us. We'd quote it. We'd laugh about it. And we'd anticipate each new episode. Dawson, like me, was a filmmaker, wide-eyed and naive. Later in his career, James explored his comedic chops, and it was delightful. The guy had a knack for comedic timing. On social media, he shared his journey in Texas and his growing family. It was always with a philosophical hint. The guy loved his family and loved life. RIP, you'll be missed, Dawson.  Here are your highlights:   Some good news? Tom Homan says ICE in Minnesota is coming to an end . I'll believe it when I see it.  Pam Bondi is a vile human being .  I'm starting to think our Navy is made up of idiots .  This Winter Olympics will be tainted. Disqualifying a Ukranian athelete for his helmet .  Gallup will no longe...

 I have a gut feeling Trump is going to try to wag the dog again. After kidnapping, Maduro didn't work; he's gonna try something else. He's the "peace" president after all. The Epstein files aren't going away, ICE is unpopular, the economy isn't doing great, and his DOJ is failing left and right. Unless they really shield him from any bad news, he's gonna lose it and then attack someone or something. He can't help himself.  Here are your highlights:  Speaking of wag the dog. Are we going to invade Mexico? The Fulton County raid was based on long-debunked conspiracies .  Russia is still attacking Ukraine and killing families .  Massie and Khanna are an odd pair. But they have released six names of men who very well could be co-conspirators with Epstein .  Nine people were killed in a school shooting in Canada . Tragic. Sending love to our Canadian friends.  ICE is still in Minnesota . It's good that Olympic athletes are speaking up.  I am Frank ...
