A Draft Letter to Sponsors & Advertisers of Bob Beckel's 'The Five' Program

On Thursday, July 10, 2014 Fox news host Bob Beckel set off another firestorm by using a racial slur in a rant about China and Chinese people on "The Five", a television program sponsored by your company.

"The Chinese are the single biggest threat to the national security of the U.S.," Mr. Beckel said. "They have been, they will be and they can wait, they're very patient. Do you know what we just did? As usual, we bring them over here and we teach a bunch of Chinamen -- er, Chinese people -- how to do computers and then they go back to China and hack into us."

After much initial protest, on the following Monday, July 14, 2014 Beckel sort of apologized for his use of the term "Chinamen" but he does not apologize for things "I've said about China and won't go into the litany of it now..."

Evidently, this is not the first time he used the term "Chinamen", he has used that term before. There was the time he said that his eyes looked "Oriental" after he went swimming. The website BuzzFeed politics listed six worst derogatory cultural observations made by Bob Beckel (http://www.buzzfeed.com/andrewkaczynski/the-6-worst-cultural-observations-made-by-fox-news-host-bob).

His statement on July 10 tainted all Chinese people (loyal American citizens or not) by insinuating that after we learned computer skills in America we then go back to China to hack into American businesses and government.

Mr. Ted Lieu, a Chinese American Democrat California Senator and a US Congressional candidate called Beckel remarks 'racist' and 'xenophobic'. Ted observed “I am one of those ‘Chinamen’ with ‘Oriental’ eyes that immigrated to America and majored in computer science. I also served on active duty in the United States Air Force and continue to serve my country in the Reserves"..... "We should all be alarmed by the racist, xenophobic comments by Bob Beckel. His comments have no place in America. He must resign immediately." We concur with Ted and we join California Congressman Mike Honda in asking Fox news to fire Bob Beckel immediately.

As a responsible company doing business in the international arena and as a sponsor of the Fox news "The Five" program, we are holding your organization responsible in ensuring Chinese and other ethnic groups are not singled out for insensitive and racially charged stereotypical remarks such as those repeatedly made by Mr. Beckel.

Please exercise your duties and rights to ensure that diversity and its values are not compromised by any broadcast program your company sponsor.

Sincerely,

川普250美钞,你想拥有一枚吗?

钞票面额从未有过,脸又是法律禁印的——川普政府仍在认真推进印一张250美元的川普纸币。这只是冰山一角:百元钞已印上他的签名,金币、护照、国家公园年票换上他的头像,肯尼迪中心、和平研究所、棕榈滩机场被冠以他的名字,连战列舰都叫"川普级"。一张脸正盖满整个国家的公家物件,全打着建国250周年的旗号。

川普撤销对国税局100亿美元诉讼,司法部设立17.76亿美元“基金”——参议员沃伦称其“腐败程度令人发指”

美国司法部5月18日宣布设立一个总额17.76亿美元的“反武器化基金”,与总统川普撤销对国税局100亿美元诉讼相关联。该基金旨在赔偿自称在拜登政府时期遭联邦政府“武器化”对待的人士,但批评者指其实际可能用于补偿2021年1月6日国会大厦袭击案被告及川普政治盟友。前国务卿希拉里·克林顿斥其为“秘密基金”,参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦称其“腐败程度令人发指”。基金由一个五人委员会管理,其中四名成员由司法部长、川普前辩护律师托德·布兰奇任命,且无需国会批准即可从财政部判决基金中支取款项,引发权力分立和公共资金滥用的广泛争议。
