Today is my first day at Yale Law School! I am so grateful—all by the faithful, miraculous, and kindhearted grace of God.
I am beyond excited to share my first op-ed for

Many people have reached out with similar stories... while others have cut off communication with me, fearing CCP retaliation. Shows me I’m on the right side of things.
This afternoon,
@JillCJacobson
and I joined Neil Cavuto (

@FoxBusiness
to chat about our recent op-ed.
We discuss the student statements immediately after the Hamas attacks & explain why it’s time for universities to re-evaluate:
Many students are proudly supporting terrorists, ostracizing their Jewish peers, and espousing views that are nothing short of moral degradation — all under the guise of “activism.”

Likewise — I spoke with Steve last year about my family escaping China. One of my favorite interviews to date.
But his remarks about
@DanielDiMartino
are so wrong. Daniel is doing great work and advocating on behalf of those suffering under authoritarian regimes.
You were so kind with me on your radio show last year, Steve. Indeed you loved what I had to say about how Venezuela was a warning against socialism for America.
It's such a shame you've fallen to say such hateful things about me because of some policy disagreement.
This is horrific. My dad’s alma mater… I used to revere this place that gave my family so much opportunity.
There is no respect for an institution that can’t keep its students safe and willfully allows vandals to destroy historic buildings.

@NRCapMatters
, I discuss the FTC’s bid to block the Illumina-Grail acquisition. The case, pending before the 5th Circuit, highlights the agency’s continued hostility towards M&As — even when the deal would be good for consumers.
The DOJ is contravening consumer interest by seeking legal remedies to force changes to popular products, all under the assumption that the government simply knows better about what the market should look like.

1. Most of you may not understand how dreadful the closure of Apple Daily means to Hong Kong. Not only to its journalistic landscape, but also to the people and the city itself. This is their last day. They are going to print 1 million copies tomorrow to commerate the fight.
A trio of rulings, far from “regressive decision-making,” promoted equality by liberating the First Amendment’s religious liberty protections.

NEW from

: There is a growing, alarming pattern of facial recognition being used after protests. And until recently, this development had been hotly contested. But today, this technology’s application is being applauded. Talk about hypocrisy.
On 9/11/2001, my neighbor picked me up from school. She told me my mom was stuck in Manhattan. My grandmother, who was near WTC, was missing.
They both came home. I thank God everyday and pray for the families who were forever changed.
