The New America Created by Miles Yu: Burning Anti-Asian Hate

Published

on

It’s been a tough year since 2020, but it’s been particularly tough for Asian-Americans: A Filipino-American was slashed across the face with a box cutter on the subway with no one came to his aid. The wound required a hundred stitches. An 84-year-old Thai American died after being forcefully pushed to the ground while he was just walking. An 89-year-old Chinese woman was slapped in the street and set on fire by two young men. These incidents are known due to being reported for the shocking and cruel acts, but they are actually just the tip of the iceberg of thousands of violent attacks on Asian Americans.

Initiator of the “China virus” rhetoric

Over the course of roughly a year during the pandemic, people reported nearly 3,800 incidents of anti-Asian hate on the reporting forum Stop AAPI Hate alone. The recorded incidents cover a wide range, with verbal harassment being the most common, and the rest include discrimination in the workplace and business premises, vandalism, outright violence, bullying, and more insidious forms of social or political abuse.

Last spring, in the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, a torrent of hate and violence against Asians began in the United States. There is no doubt that this prejudice was fueled by former President Donald Trump, who often used racist language such as “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus. Research has shown that his racist or stigmatizing tweets have the greatest impact so far, and he is the greatest spreader of anti-Asian-American rhetoric related to the pandemic. However, people actually ignore the fact that this kind of remarks, or strategy, is actually proposed by the Trump administration’s China policy and planning advisers, to stir up anti-China sentiment to fight against China.

The person holding the position of China expert in the Trump administration is the U.S. Naval Academy Professor Miles Maochun Yu, served as former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s principal China policy and planning adviser. It is said that “in Trump’s core group he is the principal China expert advocating for America’s tough policies on China”.

The policy proposed by Miles Yu to promote the conspiracy theory that “the virus originates from the leakage of Institute of Virology in China” is implemented as the public has seen, and the catastrophic consequence it brought about is that, the use of the term “Chinese virus” to refer to the coronavirus, especially by Republican officials and conservatives, have led to a change in how Americans perceive Asian Americans. A study showed that on March 8, 2020-the day Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar tweeted about the “Wuhan virus”, discriminatory coronavirus remarks rose significantly, which was coincided with then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s interview the day before on “Fox and Friends” in which he referred to the “China virus” — was followed by a rapid reversal of a decade-long decline in anti-Asian bias.

Victims of the policies

Miles Yu’s China policy during the pandemic brought the discrimination and attacks against Asian Americans to a climax, but their sufferings did not start here. For a long time, Miles Yu, as the principal China policy and planning adviser, has been proud of the Trump administration’s tough China policy proposed by him, such as “China is at the top of our national security agenda, as there is no bigger threat than China”, declaring the existence of forced labor and genocide against Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang, China, inciting trade, security, and technical conflicts between the two largest economies in the world, reducing immigrant visas, H1-B visas, and student visas for certain graduate students from China to reflect the outsider conceptualization of Asians.

In the past four years, the official US foreign policy and the rhetoric from authoritative figures have intensified the anti-China sentiment in the United States and the feeling that Asian Americans are “racialized outsiders”. Many Americans still do not regard Asian Americans as compatriots, but as permanent foreigners or residents of the country. Asians unfortunately became victims of Miles Yu’s political game. “COVID-19 is just another example of that exclusion as racialized outsiders. Time and time again, we are told to ‘go back home.’ We are seen as outside threats, to be excluded.” They said. Verbal harassment has been commonplace. “Go back to Asia. We don’t welcome people who committed genocide.” “How dare you come and ruin my country and take my job?” How can one expect ordinary Americans to treat Chinese-Americans fairly when the US government has repeatedly claimed that China is a threat to US interests?

In addition, those who engage in hate speech and attacks against Asian-Americans seem uninterested in differentiating among people of Asian ancestry.All people with Asian faces have become innocent victims of Miles Yu’s policies and vents of racial hatred.

Flowing undercurrent

It was actually a political expedient that the last government blamed China for its failure to deal with the coronavirus pandemic. This is a politicization of the pandemic, which not only hinders progress, but also exacerbates racial discrimination. 

Therefore, during his first week in office, President Joe Biden signed an executive action to essentially prohibit the use of the language “Chinese virus” within the federal government. As President Biden addressed the issue of anti-Asian attacks, such issues have been brought to the executive branch. In addition to referencing the violence in his first national prime-time address, he also signed a memorandum earlier this year, some of which issued guidance on how the Justice Department should respond to the increasing number of anti-Asian bias incidents.

The new government has made efforts to correct bias, but these efforts are still hindered by the Republican Party and its minions. Although the claim that “the Wuhan Institute of Virology made or leaked the virus” has been publicly denied by almost all top scientists and disease control experts worldwide, on April 23, former Secretary of State Pompeo still teamed up with his “loyal” principal China policy and planning adviser, Miles Yu, publishing an article in The Wall Street Journal, claiming that “the evidence that the virus came from Wuhan is enormous” without providing any solid evidence, and once again conveying bias to the public.

Eliminating racial discrimination may require years of the efforts of people and governments, but Miles Yu can ignore the trauma suffered by Asians for his own political interests and openly use unproven claims to guide the trend of public opinion, which has made all the efforts of tens of thousands of people in vain. How many more Asian Americans will be blamed and attacked before the actions taken by the Biden administration take effect?

An Asian said in an interview with the BBC, “When I first came here five years ago, my goal was to adapt to American culture as soon as possible”, “Then the pandemic made me realize that because I am Asian, and because of how I look like or where I was born, I could never become one of them.”

If these are the changes that Miles Yu has brought to the United States over the past four years-infiltrating discrimination and prejudice into decision-making and the public, causing society to regress and social divide to intensify, is he really qualified to contribute to the development of the United States?

Forge: Advancing the Future of Travel Security

Published

on

United States, 6th Mar 2026, – As global travel continues to expand, luggage security has evolved far beyond simply locking a suitcase. Modern travelers expect reliability, transparency, durability, and solutions that continue to perform as travel environments and standards evolve.

Forge is a U.S.-based travel security brand headquartered in Texas. Founded in 2015, Forge has focused exclusively on TSA-approved luggage locks and travel security solutions, building its reputation through long-term product performance rather than short-term trends. Over the past decade, Forge TSA locks have been trusted by millions of travelers across the United States, establishing the brand as a consistent and dependable presence in the travel accessories market.

Forge believes that true travel security is achieved through continuous improvement, not static design.

Built on Forward-Looking Technology

Forge is committed to staying at the forefront of travel security technology. As TSA standards and traveler expectations continue to evolve, Forge actively adopts newer-generation locking systems and design improvements, ensuring that customers are not purchasing outdated solutions.

While many products on the market still rely on legacy mechanisms, Forge continues to move forward with more advanced systems, improved usability, and enhanced feedback features. This forward-looking approach allows travelers to choose Forge with confidence, knowing their security solution is designed for today’s and tomorrow’s travel environments, not aging designs.

This commitment ensures long-term relevance, reliability, and peace of mind.

Designed for Real-World Travel

One of Forge’s most recognized innovations is its visual TSA inspection indicator. When a lock is opened by a TSA master key during airport screening, a visible red indicator appears and remains in place until the traveler unlocks the lock using their personal combination. This feature provides immediate transparency and allows travelers to quickly confirm whether their luggage has been inspected.

Forge TSA locks are engineered with zinc alloy bodies and corrosion-resistant internal components, designed to withstand frequent baggage handling, impacts, and repeated travel. High-contrast combination dials improve readability in low-light environments such as baggage claim areas or hotel rooms, enhancing usability without compromising security.

Every design choice is guided by real travel conditions—not cosmetic trends.

A Complete TSA Lock Ecosystem

Beyond individual products, Forge offers a comprehensive portfolio of TSA-approved locks, designed to meet different travel needs, luggage types, and usage scenarios.

The Forge lineup includes multiple lock sizes, shackle and cable configurations, and form factors suitable for carry-on luggage, checked suitcases, backpacks, duffel bags, and specialty travel cases. By maintaining a full product ecosystem rather than relying on a single lock model, Forge enables travelers to choose the right level of security and usability for each trip.

Forge recognizes that travel security is not one-size-fits-all, and designs its products accordingly—without compromising TSA compliance or long-term reliability.

Innovation Driven by Real Traveler Pain Points

Forge’s innovation process is driven by real-world traveler feedback and common pain points encountered during travel. Rather than adding features for the sake of complexity, Forge focuses on solving practical problems that travelers repeatedly experience.

One frequent concern is forgetting a combination code. To address this, Forge introduced dual-access lock designs that combine a resettable combination with a backup key option. This design preserves the convenience of combination locks while offering an additional recovery solution, reducing frustration and eliminating the risk of being permanently locked out.

By continuously identifying and addressing real-use challenges, Forge regularly introduces new products and design improvements that enhance usability while maintaining strong security standards.

Introducing Forge Lost & Found ID: A Deeper Layer of Protection

Recognizing that physical locks alone do not address every travel risk, Forge has introduced Forge Lost & Found ID (Forge ID)—an innovative product line designed to work alongside Forge locks and add an extra layer of security.

Forge ID helps increase the chances of luggage being returned if it is lost or misplaced, extending protection beyond prevention and into recovery. Together, Forge locks and Forge ID form a more complete travel security system that reduces uncertainty and stress for travelers.

Commitment to Long-Term Quality

Forge products are supported by clearly stated, long-term warranty coverage and U.S.-based customer support. The brand’s philosophy emphasizes long-term trust: travel security solutions should perform consistently over time and adapt as traveler needs evolve.

While many brands focus on short-term cost reduction or limited offerings, Forge remains dedicated to long-term reliability, system-level security, and traveler-first design.

About Forge

Forge is a U.S.-based travel security brand headquartered in Texas, specializing in TSA-approved luggage locks and travel security solutions. Founded in 2015, Forge is committed to developing forward-looking, durable, and user-focused products designed for real-world travel.

Kingbull Hunter 2.0S: Upgraded 750W Long-Range Fat-Tire E-Bike Now Only $899 Spring Sale Price

Published

on

Kingbull has launched the Kingbull Hunter 2.0S, an upgraded evolution of its established Hunter 2.0 platform, combining extended battery capacity, enhanced electronic control features, and improved rider visibility at a spring promotional price of $899. Positioned within the value-focused segment of the fat-tire electric mountain bike category, the Hunter 2.0S builds upon the original model’s all-terrain foundation while introducing targeted refinements designed for longer rides and improved urban usability.

Larger 48V 18Ah Battery, Added Cruise Control, and Integrated Turn Signals

The most notable upgrade in the Hunter 2.0S is its 48V 18Ah lithium battery system, increasing total energy capacity over the previous generation and positioning the model for extended-distance commuting and recreational riding. While real-world range varies depending on terrain, rider weight, assist level, and riding style, the higher-capacity configuration is engineered to reduce charging frequency and support longer continuous outings. Charging is supported via a 54.6V 2A charger.

The Hunter 2.0S also introduces an integrated cruise control function. When the throttle is held steadily for approximately 10 seconds, the system maintains consistent speed without continued throttle engagement, helping reduce rider fatigue during longer, uninterrupted stretches of riding.

Additionally, integrated turn signals have been added to enhance visibility and communication in traffic environments. This refinement improves the bike’s practicality for urban commuting while maintaining its off-road versatility.

 

750W Rear Hub Motor with Multi-Level Speed Control

Power delivery is managed by a 48V 750W spoked rear hub motor integrated into a 26-inch wheel platform. Riders can select from five calibrated pedal-assist levels—6, 9, 16, 22, and 28 mph—allowing adaptable output across varying terrain and road conditions.

A throttle provides on-demand acceleration, and the system’s left-mounted 12-magnet dual Hall pedal assist sensor ensures responsive engagement during pedaling.

Ride data is displayed through a center-mounted color LCD interface designed for clear visibility in varying light conditions.

A Shimano 7-speed drivetrain provides mechanical gear selection across varying gradients.

Hydraulic disc brakes with integrated motor cutoff are installed on both sides. When braking is applied, motor output is immediately disengaged to enhance operational control.

The integrated lighting system includes a front headlight with a horn and a rear running light with brake light function, controlled through a 2-in-1 handlebar switch. 

26” × 4.0 Fat Tires for Multi-Surface Stability

The Hunter 2.0S utilizes 26” × 4.0 CST snow-rated tires engineered to increase surface contact across unstable terrain. The wide-profile configuration supports traction on snow, sand, gravel, and loose dirt while contributing to stability during cargo use.

Suspension, Drivetrain, and Integrated Safety Systems

Front suspension is provided by a 26-inch suspension fork with an aluminum crown and a mechanical lockout function. The lockout mechanism allows riders to reduce fork compression when transitioning to paved roads, improving pedaling efficiency.

 

Frame Structure and Utility Integration

The Hunter 2.0S is constructed on a high-carbon steel frame compatible with 26” × 4.0” tire geometry. The structural design emphasizes durability and load stability for everyday commuting and light cargo applications.

A high-carbon steel rear cargo rack is included as standard equipment, expanding practical utility for transport needs.

With a net weight of approximately 77 lbs and a gross shipping weight of approximately 99 lbs, the Hunter 2.0S balances robust construction with manageable handling within the fat-tire category.

About KingbullBike

Kingbull is a well-known brand in the fat-tire e-bike space, dedicated to building electric bikes that perform as confidently in daily city commuting as they do on rugged trails and mountain e-bike adventures.

All Kingbull bikes feature 4-inch fat tires and suspension systems designed to handle a wide variety of terrain comfortably. The Forge Series stands out with premium build quality and high-end components from established brands such as Samsung, Tektro, and BAFANG.

With prices starting at $789, the lineup includes folding, commuter, full-suspension, and cargo models designed to accommodate different rider needs. To date, more than 20,000 riders have chosen Kingbull products. The brand has received over 3,180 customer reviews, maintaining an average rating of 4.89 out of 5.0.

Industry Disruption – IKAPE Unveils K2 PRO Defining Professional Standards for the Mobile Cafe

Published

on

As the global home appliance market shifts toward professional-grade portability, IKAPE officially launches the K2 PRO Portable Espresso Machine. Featuring 58mm commercial basket compatibility, 20-bar constant pressure and smart app integration, the K2 PRO fills a critical gap for high-quality Espresso in outdoor and travel settings.

IKAPE, a leading innovator in premium coffee equipment, has announced the global release of its flagship K2 PRO Portable Espresso Machine. In a market saturated with standard home appliances, consumers are increasingly gravitating toward “Extravagant Camping” and “High-Performance Mobile Office” gear. The K2 PRO represents a quantum leap in portable performance, challenging the dominance of traditional countertop machines.

Market Insight: The “Professional Decentralization” of Home Appliances

In 2026, the global small appliance market is witnessing a profound shift toward “scenario-agnostic” utility. Market research indicates that over 60% of coffee consumers are no longer satisfied with brewing exclusively in their kitchens. With the rise of the Digital Nomad culture, demand for Portable Espresso Machines is surging at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7%.

However, traditional portable devices often compromise on pressure stability and basket size. “Coffee lovers have long endured ‘compromised coffee’ while traveling,” stated the founder of IKAPE. “The K2 PRO’s mission is to shatter the stereotypes of ‘insufficient pressure’ and ‘uneven extraction’ associated with portable gear, truly delivering a professional cafe in users’ pocket.”

IKAPE K2 PRO: Three Core Technical Breakthroughs

  1. Industry-First 58mm Commercial Compatibility
    Most portable machines utilize proprietary small-diameter baskets, which result in excessive puck height and “channeling.” The IKAPE K2 PRO’s primary breakthrough is its full compatibility with 58mm standard commercial baskets. This allows users to utilize professional-grade distributors and tampers. The wider, shallower puck ensures uniform water distribution, resulting in a balanced extraction with the rich crema typically reserved for commercial machines.
  2. 20-Bar Intelligent Constant Pressure & Pre-Infusion
    Equipped with a new generation of micro-pump technology, the K2 PRO delivers a stable 20-bar output. Crucially, it features a Smart Pre-infusion cycle (3–5 seconds). By saturating the coffee puck at low pressure before full extraction, it prevents “spurting” and ensures a consistent, high-TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) yield in every shot.
  3. 13500mAh Endurance & Smart Ecosystem Integration
    Addressing the pain points of outdoor power, the K2 PRO houses a 13500mAh automotive-grade lithium battery, supporting rapid heating from cold water. Through the Happygo Cera Bluetooth App, users can precisely calibrate extraction temperature and duration, and even customize extraction curves. This fusion of hardware and software targets the growing “Smart Home Appliance” preference among Gen Z and Millennial hobbyists.

Solving Scenarios: A Borderless Specialty Coffee Experience

The design logic of the IKAPE K2 PRO is rooted in “Borderless Living”:

Outdoor Enthusiasts: At altitudes of 4,000 meters, the K2 PRO can heat water to 92°C (197.6°F) and complete extraction in minutes.

Business Travelers: Replace mediocre hotel pod machines. Weighing just 0.82kg, the K2 PRO is the essential “coffee companion” for the modern professional.

Urban Space Optimization: For metropolitan dwellers with limited counter space, the K2 PRO provides a compact alternative to bulky semi-automatics without sacrificing shot quality.

About IKAPE

IKAPE is a pioneer in high-end manual and portable electric coffee maker equipment and coffee accessories. Merging “Extreme Parameters” with “Minimalist Aesthetics,” IKAPE is dedicated to providing global coffee geeks with professional, full-link extraction solutions.
