Sad. Thoughts and prayers to Pelosi, but we had no business defying China. We need to take this L. Ecstatic. Hopefully we will send AOC to China next, along with rest of the Biden administration.

"The [Chinese Army] has the right to forcibly dispel Pelosi's plane and the US fighter jets, including firing warning shots and making tactical movement of obstruction. If ineffective, then shoot them down." "If Speaker Pelosi visits Taiwan, the move will seriously violate the one-China principle and the provisions in the three China-U.S. joint communiques, severely endanger China's sovereignty and territorial integrity," Chinese Ministry of Defense spokesman Tan Kefei said earlier this week. "The Chinese military will never sit idl[y] by, and will certainly take strong and resolute measures to thwart any interference by external forces and secessionist attempts for 'Taiwan independence,' and firmly defend China's national sovereignty and territorial integrity," he added. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
