Protest slogans were sprayed on the walls of Tiananmen Square? Photo shared on-line popularly

The CCP’s totalitarian rule has caused people’s resentment to boil. Protest slogans were sprayed on the walls of Tiananmen Square on the Internet, and the words "must step down" were faintly visible. However, the exact location of the incident cannot be determined, and the authenticity of the photos is also temporarily difficult to determine.
On 8 April 2023, a photo allegedly showing the Tiananmen City Wall being sprayed was posted on domestic and foreign social platforms. The photos showed what appeared to be a line of black slogans sprayed on the red city wall between the two circular arches of Tiananmen Square. Several men in plainclothes suspected of being police officers covered the front half of the slogan with a white cloth, and the uncovered second half was suspected to be "must step down." Next to the sign, a man who appeared to be in military uniform was on the phone. Not far away stood a man and a woman, suspected tourists.
Screenshots posted on the Internet show that the netizen who initially broke the news only said that "someone sprayed words on the red wall of Tiananmen", but did not say whether it was outside or inside the Tiananmen wall, nor did they mention what words were sprayed.
Some netizens thought it was "Xi Jinping must step down". However, judging from the photos, the first half of the covered slogan may be more than three words.
During the "White Paper Movement" last November, protesters in Shanghai shouted slogans such as "Communist Party step down" and "Xi Jinping step down." Previously, slogans against the "clearing" blockade and against the CCP's dictatorship were hung on the Sitong Bridge in Beijing.
If the news of protest slogans sprayed on Tiananmen Square is true, it can be called a "major political event" in China today. During the June 4th student movement, someone smashed rotten eggs at the portrait of Mao Zedong on the Tiananmen Rostrum, and was sentenced to a heavy sentence.
The above spray-painted photos were posted on overseas Twitter, sparking heated discussions. A large number of netizens suspected of being fifty cents of the CCP "questioned" the authenticity of the photos. Some people say that Tiananmen Square is heavily guarded and it is impossible to be sprayed, while others claim that this is not Tiananmen Square.
However, many tweeters who oppose the CCP thought the photos were credible, and they all liked the Chinese people who sprayed the words. Others said that whether this slogan is sprayed on Tiananmen Square or other walls in Beijing, it reflects the will of the Chinese people to resist the tyranny of the CCP.
The city gate in the photo is obviously the architectural style of the gate of the Forbidden City in Beijing. However, the scope of the photos is too narrow, and it is difficult to fully determine whether it is Tiananmen.
The photo may have been taken on the outside of Tiananmen Gate, or inside Tiananmen. In addition, at the Duanmen between Tiananmen and the Meridian Gate of the Forbidden City, the five door openings are also arched door openings similar to Tiananmen. In addition, the four gates of the Forbidden City, including the Meridian Gate, Donghua Gate, Xihua Gate and Shenwu Gate, are all designed with "outside square and inside circle", that is, the outside is a square door opening, and the inside is changed to a square arched shape.

Major political event? ! The lingering sound of "Sitong Bridge" continues, and an amazing slogan appears on the red wall of Tiananmen? Li Qiang tried his best to retain foreign businessmen, and moved Ma Yun and Musk as signs, can it change the situation?

Ma Ying-jeou said "the 1992 Consensus is alive again" Legislative Yuan People's Party Group: Taiwanese generally find it hard to accept

The Republic of China (Taiwan) President Tsai Ing-wen and former President Ma Ying-jeou concluded their visits to the United States and China last week. Zhang Qilu, secretary-general of the Legislative Yuan People’s Party Group, pointed out in the party group press conference this morning (11 April) that former President Ma Ying-jeou talked about “the 1992 Consensus alive” after returning to China, but in fact, the concept of the 1992 Consensus has long been tainted. China does not recognize Ma Ying-jeou's "One China Interpretation" and "1992 Consensus". Taiwanese people generally find it difficult to accept it. They call on China to respect the voice of the people of Taiwan and let the two sides of the Taiwan Strait talk on the basis of dignity and equality.
Zhang Qilu said that after returning to China, former President Ma Ying-jeou talked about "the 1992 Consensus has come alive", but in fact, the 1992 Consensus, a 31-year-old concept, has long been stigmatized, and even directly used by China to match the "one country, two systems" concept. The concept of the united front can also be seen from Ma Ying-jeou's visit this time. China does not recognize Ma Ying-jeou's "one China interpretation" and "1992 Consensus" at all, let alone accept the KMT's so-called "one China, different forms".
Zhang Qilu pointed out that the current Taiwanese perception of the country is that the country is the "Republic of China (Taiwan)" and the home is "Taiwan." Under the united front framework, it cannot be recognized by most Taiwanese.
Zhang Qilu said that the reality is that "Taiwan, the Republic of China" does have sovereignty, territory and people. At the same time, it has a pivotal position in the world in terms of economy and industrial division. China must respect the cognition and voice of the people of Taiwan. The farther apart, the best solution to the sound development of the two sides of the strait is to have a dialogue based on "mutual recognition, dignity, and equality" to keep the people away from the flames of war.
In response to the CCP’s military exercise surrounding Taiwan after Shuangying’s visit, Qiu Chenyuan, the general secretary of the Legislative Yuan People’s Party Group, said that the Legislative Yuan People’s Party Group strongly condemned the CCP’s military actions to intimidate Taiwan and worsen cross-strait relations. This military exercise shows that the CCP has adopted The war of attrition or fatigue has caused Chinese pilots to experience alert fatigue and a large amount of fuel consumption. It costs more than one million yuan in fuel consumption for an hour to dispatch. At the beginning of the year, it was reported that the military's annual fuel expenses were not enough. A total of 1,684,773,000 yuan in reserve funds, highlighting that the air force's interception and defense mechanisms should be re-examined.
Qiu Chenyuan also pointed out that due to the need for senior pilots to perform interception tasks, which affects the training of future pilots, coupled with the impact of the declining birth rate, the source of pilots is becoming less and less, which may form a vicious circle. In view of the fact that Taiwan ordered 66 The F-16 will be delivered in 3 years. At that time, there may be a dilemma of "shortage of pilots and ground crews". He called on the government to conduct a comprehensive review of the recruitment channels for pilots and ground crews, and retain retired senior pilots so as to reduce manpower burden.

On 10 April 2023, the Judiciary Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives announced that it will hold a live hearing in New York City on 17 April 2023to discuss the case of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. "Supporting Crime" issues, the hearing was titled "Victims of Violent Crime in Manhattan."
Trump was arraigned a few weeks ago after Bragg sued former President Donald Trump.
Conservatives and Republicans slammed Bragg, calling the prosecution a "weaponization of the judiciary" and an "attempt to interfere in the 2024 presidential election."
Critics also slammed Bragg's "soft on crime" policy.
The House Judiciary Committee said the hearing "will examine how Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's pro-crime, anti-victim policies have contributed to an increase in violent crime in New York and endangered New York City residents."
Shortly after taking office, Bragg issued a memo saying the DA's office would not prosecute many crimes, including marijuana misdemeanors, public transportation fare evasion, most trespasses, resisting arrest and prostitution. Bragg also announced reduced levels of certain crimes, including possession of non-firearm weapons, residential and business burglary and drug cases.
House Republicans noted that Bragg's leniency for the crimes was inconsistent with his indictment of Trump for allegedly falsifying business records.
"The people of New York state accuse Donald J. Trump of repeatedly fraudulently falsifying New York business records during the 2016 presidential election to conceal his crimes from voting citizens," Bragg said in a statement released by his office, home to the most important business market in the United States. "We will not allow New York companies to falsify business records to conceal criminal activity."

Hold Bragg accountable
In-person hearings are also held when House committees hold hearings outside committees on Capitol Hill. The House judicial hearing will be held at the Javits Federal Building in Manhattan.
Republicans have vowed to hold Bragg accountable since a New York grand jury voted to indict Trump on 30 March 2023.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy tweeted, "Alvin Bragg has done irreparable damage to our country by attempting to interfere in our presidential election. He routinely unleashes violent criminals to intimidate the public, yet weaponizing our sacred justice system against Donald Trump. The American people will not tolerate this injustice, and the House will hold Alvin Bragg accountable for his abuse of power."
House Republicans have opened an investigation into Bragg and his office.
On 20 March and 25 March 2023, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer and House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil jointly signed a letter, which was written to Bragg demanding that he testify before Congress and turn over documents related to the investigation.
"You have engaged in an unprecedented abuse of prosecutorial power: the prosecution of the former president and current presidential candidate of the United States," the letter said. process", "Given the serious consequences of your actions, we expect you to testify (to Congress) regarding the clearly politically motivated decision to prosecute."
Bragg said that the U.S. Congress has no power to govern judicial issues in New York State, and the House of Representatives is exercising its power beyond its boundaries.
Trump was indicted by Bragg on 4 April 2023 on 34 counts for allegedly paying hush money to adult film actress Daniels. Trump has maintained his innocence.
On the social media site Truth Social, Trump called Bragg's prosecution a "witch hunt" and said the district attorney should "turn himself in."

Macron's remarks on Taiwan provoked outrage, Rubio called on Europe to quickly clarify

French President Emmanuel Macron returned to Paris from a three-day state visit to CCP China on 7 April 2023. On the way back home, his remarks on the Taiwan issue sparked anger and were rejected to the criticism of the China hawks.
Emmanuel Macron was interviewed in the cabin of his A330, wearing a hoodie with the words "French technology" written on the front, Politico reported.
In a disclaimer, Politico said some of the French leader's comments had been redacted by his office in accordance with interview protocols. Among them, Macron talked "more frankly" about his views on the Taiwan issue.
Macron said he wanted Europe not to be influenced by the United States, but to adopt a strategy of "strategic autonomy", a concept backed by Beijing.
"If the tension between the two superpowers heats up... we will not have the time or the resources to finance our strategic autonomy, we will become a vassal," Macron told reporters on the tour. "The paradox is , we will be overwhelmed by panic and think we are followers of the United States."
"The question the Europeans need to answer is... is it in our interest to accelerate the (crisis) in Taiwan? No," Macron said. "The Europeans cannot solve the crisis in Ukraine; People say convincingly: 'Be careful, if you do something wrong, we will shoot you?'"
Shortly after the interview, Macron posted a video on his social media showing him being swarmed by Chinese citizens who were supposed to be "handpicked by the CCP."
Macron's comments sparked widespread disappointment and anger in Europe and the United States, with Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio urging European countries to "swiftly" clarify whether Macron was speaking for Europe or just for France.
"We need to ask Europe if he speaks for them because we're heavily involved in Ukraine right now and we're spending a lot of taxpayer money on wars in Europe," Rubio said in a video statement.
"I support that because I think it's in the national interest of the United States to align with our allies," Rubio said. "Picking sides between the U.S. and China on Taiwan, so maybe we shouldn't be picking sides either?"
"Maybe we should say we're going to focus on the threats posed by Taiwan and China, and you guys deal with Ukraine?" Rubio stressed.
German foreign policy scholar and China watcher Ulrich Speck told Australian online newspaper WAtoday that Macron's remarks proved Australia was right to tear up its submarine contract with France in favor of the AUKUS agreement.
Malcolm Davis, an expert at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, described Macron's comments as "ill-considered and ill-timed" because the current situation in Ukraine requires the joint efforts of Europe and the United States.
"In the face of stubborn challenges from Moscow and Beijing, he has greatly weakened transatlantic unity," Davis told WAtoday. What would you think?), and in doing so weaken NATO."
Davis noted that Macron has made Xi and the CCP more aware of the "weakness and division" of liberal democracies in the West, which comes at a time of heightened competition between authoritarian and liberal democracies.
Bruno Tertrais, deputy director of the Foundation for Strategic Research, a leading French defense think tank, said Macron was wrong about Taiwan.
"The best way to avoid war in Taiwan is deterrence," Tertrais said.

Macron's remarks on appeasement of CCP China provoked controversy, think tank scholars criticized: Acting as a useful idiot for Beijing
Reporter : Lu Yongshan / https://news.ltn.com.tw/news/world/breakingnews/4266759 / Image : French President Emmanuel Macron's appeasement remarks against China after his visit to China on the 9th continued to arouse dissatisfaction among politicians and think tanks in the United States and Europe. Some even criticized Macron for "acting as a useful idiot for Beijing." (taken from twitter)
French President Macron concluded his visit to China on 9 April 2023 and was interviewed on the presidential plane, saying that Europe should avoid being involved in the US-China conflict over the Taiwan issue, and emphasized that Europe should be strategically independent and should not become a vassal of the United States. According to a report by the British Daily Mail on 10 April, Macron's remarks continued to arouse dissatisfaction among politicians and think tanks in the United States and Europe. Some even criticized Macron for "acting as a useful idiot for Beijing."
Macron has turned his trip to China into a PR victory for Xi and a foreign policy disaster for Europe, said German MP Norbert Roettgen, an influential member of the German parliament's foreign affairs committee. "Macron is increasingly isolating himself in Europe," said a conservative lawmaker.
Nathan Sales, who served as acting deputy secretary of state under former U.S. President Trump, said that Macron’s move may damage relations with Western allies. What Xi Jinping wants most is to split the transatlantic alliance, and Macron's lack of thoughtfulness just opened the door for that.
Searles pointed out that Macron's move is not only out of touch with the United States, but also with other European countries, especially during the Russia-Ukraine War, Europeans understand the importance of American leadership and realize that a world led by authoritarian countries like CCP China would be hostile to European values.
Mike Gallagher, chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives Select Committee on the Communist Party of China, said in an interview with Fox News that Macron's remarks were embarrassing and disgraceful. On the one hand, it makes the possibility of war between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait more likely.
Nile Gardiner of the Thatcher Center for Freedom at the Heritage Foundation, an American think tank, slammed Macron for "acting as a useful idiot for Beijing" whose appeasement policy towards the CCP embarrassed France.
Ivo Daalder, the U.S. ambassador to NATO under former U.S. President Barack Obama, also criticized Macron as a hypocrite because he could rely on U.S. security commitments to resolve crises such as Ukraine.
The White House tried to calm the dispute, with National Security Council spokesman Kirby saying the Biden-Harris administration remained "satisfied and confident in our excellent bilateral relationship with France." Aurelie Bonal, France's deputy ambassador to the United States, insisted that "France and Europe will always be close allies and partners of the United States," tweeting that "France's position on Taiwan has not changed."

On 10 April 2023, Xu Zhiyong, a well-known Chinese legal scholar, and Ding Jiaxi, a human rights lawyer, were sentenced by the CCP to 14 and 12 years in prison respectively. The verdict aroused the outrage of public opinion. Some lawyers and scholars said that the CCP regime is insane and should not have any illusions about the tyranny of the CCP.
Xu Zhiyong and Ding Jiaxi were accused of the so-called "subversion of state power" case, and the trial was held at the Shandong Linshu County Court at 9.30 am and 10.30 am on 10 April 2023.
According to a report from China Human Rights Defense Network, on 10 April, Xu Zhiyong was sentenced to 14 years in prison for the so-called "subversion of state power" by the CCP. Ding Jiaxi was also sentenced to 12 years in prison for the same crime and deprived of political rights for 3 years.
According to the report, at present, the CCP authorities' suppression and persecution of democrats in mainland China has reached a frenzied level. The space and situation of human rights defenders in mainland China require further effective attention from the international community.
After the verdicts of Xu Zhiyong and Ding Jiaxi came out, it aroused public outrage.
Yu Wensheng, a well-known human rights lawyer in Beijing, expressed on Twitter that he strongly condemns the severe sentences of Dr. Xu Zhiyong and lawyer Ding Jiaxi to 14 years by the CCP authorities! Pay tribute to Xu Zhiyong and Ding Jiaxi who have worked hard for freedom, democracy, human rights and the rule of law! He believes that a beautiful China in the future will surely come true.
Chen Jiangang, a well-known human rights lawyer in China, said, "Don't have any illusions about the CCP's tyranny".
Wang Dan, a Chinese pro-democracy activist, said that Xu Zhiyong and Ding Jiaxi were sentenced to 14 and 12 years in prison respectively. The CCP regime is insane and will definitely suffer retribution. "This also reminds us not to have any illusions about this evil regime. If they are not overthrown, China will never have room for progress!"
Netizens on Twitter said, "The authorities are really crazy, the sentence is so heavy!" "The anger cannot be expressed!" "Because they have a conscience and only speak human words for the common people, they will suffer such suffering, which is heartbreaking." " In my life, I want to see the fall of the CCP, witness Xu Zhiyong get out of prison, and see with my own eyes the perpetrators of today’s crimes be judged.”
On 16 July 2013, Xu Zhiyong was detained by Beijing police on suspicion of “gathering to disturb order in public places” and was detained in Beijing No. 3 Detention Center; on 22 August of the same year, he was arrested; on 26 January 2014, he was sentenced to 4 years in prison for the so-called crime of "gathering crowds to disturb order in public places"; he was released from prison on 15 July 2017.
On 15 February 2020, Xu Zhiyong was taken away by the Guangzhou police from Yang Bin, a lawyer in Haiou Island, Panyu; Ding Jiaxi has been in secret exile in southern China since he was arrested on 26 March. His relatives and friends were harassed and followed many times. His girlfriend Li Qiaochu was also forcibly disappeared and later released on bail.
On 19 June 2020, Xu Zhiyong was arrested and detained at the Linshu County Detention Center in Shandong Province.
Ding Jiaxi was taken away by the Shandong National Security Police at a friend's house at around 9 pm on 26 December 2019. His mobile phone and other items were confiscated, and he was framed as the main culprit of the so-called "Xiamen Gathering Case".He was formally arrested on 19 June 2020. Ding Jiaxi was detained at the Linshu County Detention Center in Shandong Province.
In mid-December 2019, a number of Chinese lawyers and citizen activists gathered in Xiamen, Fujian Province to discuss civil society issues. Unexpectedly, it led to large-scale arrests and interrogations by the authorities in many places across the country, commonly known as the "1226 arrests." Nearly 20 human rights lawyers and human rights defenders, including Ding Jiaxi, Zhang Zhongshun, Dai Zhenya, and Li Yingjun, have been silenced, harassed, summoned, detained, and even arrested by the authorities for a long time. This incident is regarded as the largest mass persecution of the Chinese citizens' movement after the "709" incident.
Before Xu Zhiyong and Ding Jiaxi were sentenced, on 7 April 2023, Ding Jiaxi's wife Luo Shengchun, who lived in the United States, released their oral transcripts on Twitter.
Luo Shengchun said: "Knowing that Jiaxi and Zhiyong have been detained for more than three years, tortured and ill-treated, and still have to be sentenced by the CCP authorities, an unjust court, I am full of resentment! Tearful Zhiyong dictated it long before the secret court trial his good court statement to share with friends."
Xu Zhiyong said in the oral manuscript: "I want to have a dream, a beautiful China, beautiful and free, just and happy. That is a democratic China. The world is still the world of the world, not the country of one clan and one party, but a country of the real people. Power comes from the vote, not the barrel of a gun."
He said, "There is no absolute freedom, but this is definitely not a reason to arbitrarily kill freedom. There are universal standards for human civilization, which are written in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and in Chinese law. Freedom rights cannot always be a piece of paper."
"I long for a free country, without a China where power monsters are rampant. We have freedom of belief, what religion we believe in, and what doctrine is personal nature, and power cannot be interfered with. We have freedom of speech, there is no large-scale deletion of posts and accounts, and there is no restricted area for political speech , no one will be imprisoned for expressing political opinions..."
On 8 April 2023, Luo Shengchun tweeted again, "After 6 months of torture, when my body was still swollen, in the detention centre without pen and paper, Jiaxi also dictated a few passages to me, telling me that if they don't have a public trial, they just make it a court statement and let me send it to everyone when he pronounces the sentence."
Ding Jiaxi said in the oral manuscript: "A battle between democracy and dictatorship is unfolding, their lifelong dictatorship and long-term delusion of one-party dictatorship are coming to an end, and China's social transformation is approaching day by day.····································· I can feel it clearly, even when I'm on a high wall."
Ding Jiaxi finally said that the authoritarian regime may have blocked 1,000 possible collapses, but "the authoritarian regime will collapse in 1,001 ways, which is the law of history. Let us start the countdown: five, four, three, two, one... ···”

中南海下令全国学“习选” 专家指离中共垮台不远
A few days ago, the CCP ordered the whole country to study "Selected Readings of Xi Jinping's Works" (hereinafter referred to as "Xi Xuan"), and required all colleges and universities to use it as a learning textbook to promote "Xi Thought" into the classroom. Some experts believe that the CCP has recently promoted the whole party and even the whole people to learn "Xi Thought", which is another "spiritual castration" of the Chinese people, and it will not be far from the CCP's demise.
The CCP’s Xinhua News Agency reported on 10 April 2023 that the notice on studying the first and second volumes of “Xi Xuan” stated that editing and publishing “Xi Xuan” was a “major decision made by the Party Central Committee.” "Xi Xuan" includes Xi Jinping's works from November 2012 to October 2022, and is an "authoritative textbook" for "the whole party and people of all ethnic groups in the country" to study "Xi Thought" in depth.
The notice touted Xi Jinping as the main creator of "Xi Thought," and demanded that all the people consciously maintain a high degree of unity with the Party Central Committee with "Xi Core," and so on.
The notice stated that studying "Xi Xuan" is a major political task of "concentrating the heart and casting the soul" with "Xi Thought", and that party committees (party groups) at all levels should put learning "Xi Xuan" in an important position.
In addition, Party schools (administrative colleges) and cadre colleges at all levels of the Communist Party of China should incorporate "Xi Xuan" into the important content of training and teaching to promote "full coverage" of learning; and require all colleges and universities to use "Xi Xuan" as a theoretical study textbook for teachers and students, incorporating "Xi Thought" into textbooks, classrooms, and minds.

CCP is training the Chinese people to lie
Regarding this campaign of praising Xi Jinping, political commentator Yue Shan told NTDTV on April 11 that the CCP’s practice of forcing the whole party and the people to learn the so-called theories of the party leader is against human nature and is harmful to people. Superficial coping constitutes a double-faced personality. In fact, the CCP is training people to lie.

Xi Thought as a set of cult practices leads to the loss of people's hearts
Yue Shan believes that this is a set of cult practices in itself, and it has been developed to the extreme, and normal people will feel horrible. At the same time, it is against the law of heaven and will accelerate the fall of the regime. Because people’s nature is to resist this kind of brainwashing, the more the CCP engages, the more it will accumulate people’s inner dissatisfaction, singing praises on the surface and cursing in the heart, just like during Xia Jie’s rule, the people pointed to the sun and said, "I will die with you." It means that when you perish, I am willing to die with you. The result of the loss of people's hearts is the collapse of the regime.
At the Two Sessions of the CCP, Xi Jinping was re-elected for the third time, and he has monopolized power. Xi Jinping's people control the core institutions of the CCP's party, government, and military. At present, the CCP's officialdom is full of chaotic phenomena such as flattery and "eunuchs" abusing power, and many people who work hard to express their loyalty have successfully ascended to power.

Regime eunuchization is spiritual castration that leads to Xi's collapse eventually
On 7 April 2023, the Taiwanese media "Shang Bao" published an article signed by Du Zheng, saying that the eunuchization of the CCP's regime is not physical castration, but spiritual castration. The CCP’s previous campaigns were spiritual castration campaigns. Recently, the CCP has replaced the brainwashing content with a new package of “Xi Thought”, which is a second spiritual castration of the Chinese people.
The article believes that since Xi Jinping has realized the eunuchization of the regime, he is not far from being defeated like Liu Yu, the empress of the Southern Han Dynasty.

McCarthy: Congress will hold Alvin Bragg accountable
House Speaker McCarthy tweeted on Tuesday, "(Manhattan District Attorney) Alvin Bragg is trying to interfere with the democratic process in the United States, citing federal law to politicize President Trump, and he admits to using federal funds (investigating Trump) , while arguing that members of Congress do not have jurisdiction to investigate this farce."
"That is not the case. Irving Bai will be held accountable by Congress for his weaponization of the federal judicial process."
Although Republican Senator Mitt Romney voted to impeach Trump, he believes the Manhattan grand jury's indictment of Trump was unfair.
Romney on Tuesday denounced Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
"I believe that President Trump's character and behavior make him unsuitable to be president. Even so, I believe that this New York prosecutor did everything possible to reach a felony criminal charge (against Trump) to fit a political agenda." Romney said in a statement.
"No one is above the law, not even a former president, but everyone is entitled to equal treatment under the law. This prosecutor's excesses set a dangerous precedent for convicting political opponents and damage the public confidence in our justice system," he said.
"The allegations and evidence will be given due consideration and the outcome will be decided by the jury, who are bound to discharge their duties with the utmost care and impartiality," he added.
On Tuesday, Republican Senator Marco Rubio posted a video to social media ahead of Trump's arraignment, lamenting that the event would mark a "new normal" in American politics.
"Whether you like Trump or not, whether you support him or not, today is a bad day for all of us. Today, American politics crossed a line that will never come back," Rubio said.
"After today, every prosecutor in America who wants to make a name for himself will have a license to basically go after someone from the other party," he said.
Rubio added that there is now "nothing" that will stop Republican or conservative prosecutors from going after the Bidens or the Clintons because starting today, the "new normal" is established.

The unemployment rate among young people in China continues to be high, making it difficult to find a job. A few days ago, Guangdong issued a policy to mobilize 300,000 young people to go to the mountains and go to the countryside, which aroused public attention. Some experts have analyzed that since the beginning of this spring, various data of China's economy have been terrible. Both the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta locomotives have stalled, indicating that the overall economy has a big problem.
Recently, the Guangdong Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China released the "Three-Year Action Plan for Guangdong Youth Going to the Countryside and Returning to the Countryside to Help the "High-Quality Development Project of Hundreds of Counties, Thousands of Towns and Thousands of Villages".
According to the plan, by the end of 2025, a total of 100,000 young people will be organized to go to the countryside to help, 100,000 young people will be contacted and served to return to their hometowns to practice, and 100,000 young people will be trained to improve their skills in rural development, and strive to drive 10,000 young people to enter the county. Township employment, cultivation and support for 10,000 young people to start businesses in the county.
On 25 March the Guangdong Provincial Bureau of Statistics released the "Guangdong Economic Operation Briefing for January-February 2023" on its official website, showing that Guangdong's economic recovery this year has been lower than the national average.
According to the briefing, from January to February, the added value of industrial enterprises above designated size in Guangdong Province was 521.9 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 1.5%, which was 3.9 percentage points lower than the national average; the total profit of industrial enterprises above designated size decreased by 30.4% year-on-year, which was more than the national average. 7.5 percentage points; the completed fixed asset investment increased by 4.7% year-on-year, 0.8 percentage points lower than the national average; the total retail sales of consumer goods was 791 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.8%, 1.7 percentage points lower than the national average. The province's freight volume decreased by 5.0% year-on-year.
Regarding the issue of 300,000 young people in Guangdong going to the countryside, Wen Zhao, a well-known commentator and cultural scholar on China issues, analyzed in his program "Wen Zhao Talks about the Past and the Present" that Guangdong is one of the provinces with the most vibrant economy in China, where jobs should be created. Provinces with the most opportunities. At present, 300,000 young people are sent to the countryside, which shows that there are accidents and troubles in Guangdong.
Wen Zhao said that Guangdong has two major cities, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, and a series of fast-growing cities, such as Foshan and Dongguan. Guangdong should not lack job opportunities. Now the Guangdong Communist Youth League is going against the trend of urbanization, recruiting college graduates to go to the mountains and the countryside to alleviate the pressure of unemployment in the cities. So do you think the problem is serious?
Wen Zhao believes that Guangdong is the first place where Guangdong is the first place where the resurgence of the movement to the countryside is the first nightmare to come true. Considering that Guangdong Secretary Huang Kunming is Xi's direct descendant, this movement may be in favor of "Yi Zun" and may have far-reaching intentions. Large-scale travel to the countryside may be more widespread in the future, and follow-up provinces will follow up.
So what is the real purpose of Guangdong's new version of going to the mountains and going to the countryside? Wen Zhao said that the official document refers to the practice of returning home, that is, to go to the society to practice and receive training. That is to say, they are temporarily resettled to the countryside, staggering the peak unemployment in the city, and preventing the ugly scene of rushing for jobs in the city. After these unemployed people are scattered and resettled, there will be no unemployed youths who respond to the crowd and take to the streets, causing another "black paper revolution".
Wen Zhao believes that the so-called grouping of 300,000 young people to the countryside is a face-saving project, because the unemployment rate in China is called the surveyed urban unemployment rate. Now that all young people have been transferred to the countryside, they are separated from the survey and statistics of the urban unemployed population. The official's performance goals have been achieved; to put it more seriously, it is a "plan to create disasters", because a thunderstorm in a big city is a big thunderstorm, so it is split into several small mines and scattered to various counties and towns.
According to the data released by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security of the Communist Party of China, the number of college graduates in 2022 will be 10.76 million, while the number of real employees will only be 2.54 million. A record high, the employment situation will be more severe.
Shi Shan, senior editor and chief editor of The Epoch Times, said in the Pinnacle View that the Chinese economy is basically two locomotives, one is the Yangtze River Delta and the other is the Pearl River Delta. The situation in Dongguan is also very bad.
Recently, there was a video on the Internet, saying that a factory in Dongguan was recruiting workers, and the wages offered were 6 yuan per hour, which was only one-third of the hourly wage of 18 yuan per hour for ordinary workers in Dongguan four years ago (2019). Not only Dongguan, but cities with considerable economic strength such as Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Foshan are basically in a very, very bad situation.
Political and economic current affairs commentator Qin Peng said in the Pinnacle View that the CCP authorities have been busy attracting investment recently, busy organizing the Boao Forum, busy recruiting Ma Yun back, and busy saying that private entrepreneurs will not be arrested if they cannot ...
Qin Peng pointed out that when the CCP encourages something, there must be problems in this area. From this, it can be seen that there are problems in China's foreign trade and private enterprises.
According to the analysis of Pinnacle View, the Chinese economy has entered the legendary Great Depression amidst the continuous recession. For an authoritarian regime like the CCP, it also means that the CCP may launch a war to divert social pressure. The outside world is worried about the impact of World War II tragedy that will repeat itself.
