The legacy media’s latest obsession is impossible to miss. In recent weeks, outlets from The Guardian to Bloomberg to The Economist have flooded their pages with glowing tributes to Chinese innovation, culture, and global leadership. China leads in artificial intelligence ethics. China dominates electric vehicles and drone technology. China offers a steadier model for the world. Young Westerners, we are told, are “Chinamaxxing”—eagerly adopting habits like sipping hot water with goji berries, wearing indoor slippers, and declaring they have entered “a very Chinese time in their lives.”

This is not organic admiration. It is a coordinated narrative push, one that seeks to rebrand the Chinese Communist Party as the responsible adult in the room while the West supposedly descends into chaos.

House Democrats have filed five articles of impeachment against War Secretary Pete Hegseth, centering their accusations on the Trump administration’s military campaign against Iran. The resolution, introduced by Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-Ariz.) with eight co-sponsors, charges abuse of power, violations of the laws of armed conflict, negligence with sensitive information, obstruction of oversight, and conduct damaging to the nation’s reputation.

This latest partisan maneuver arrives as the Pentagon reports decisive success in degrading Iran’s military capabilities. Far from an unprovoked adventure, the operation targeted a regime long bent on acquiring nuclear weapons, exporting terrorism, and threatening American interests and allies. Democrats’ haste to impeach the man overseeing these operations reveals less about Hegseth’s fitness than about their own reflexive opposition to any assertion of American strength.

In late February, the FBI warned California law enforcement that Iran had "aspired" to launch drone strikes from a vessel off the coast, in retaliation for U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran

The intelligence was unverified; the White House called for retractions and said no such threat ever existed

Newsom and local agencies issued reassuring statements and declared elevated readiness — essentially bureaucratic theater

The more serious question the episode exposed: California has no meaningful counter-drone capability of its own

Federal law restricts drone interdiction to federal agencies; state and local law enforcement cannot act independently

Experts note large Shahed-style strikes on California aren't feasible, but small modified commercial drones are a genuine, existing threat

Iran has a documented presence in Mexico and South America and now has both the drones and the motive

California needs real action: National Guard drone interdiction training, infrastructure vulnerability assessments, and pressure on Congress to expand counter-drone authority to states
