Well, the threat only applies if her plane is escorted by US fighters, right? From what I read, it sounds like she can still visit without fighter escort and the Chicomms won't lose face. I also believe any chance of an incident is minimal. The Chinese are in bed with whoever is running this 'presidential' administration. Why shoot down the hand that feeds them.

Not sure this figures into Pelosi's suggested visit, but I do think this is leading up to a soon to be China attack on Taiwan. 美しい犬 | |||

If the Chinese kill that stuttering bitch for us, maybe we can get along after all. They show up with some General Tsao's, I pour them a Miller Lite, we laugh at the death of one of the Brown/Pelosi/Newsome/Getty crime family. | |||

I'll bet every thriller novelist in America is drinking triples of his favorite bust-skull right now. I can hear the laments, "I pitched this idea to my agent and he cancelled me because fiction has to be believable." Bummer. Just a little too early _______________________ | |||

'US Military Moving Assets', Markets Stall On Reports Pelosi To Visit Taiwan Tuesday https://www.zerohedge.com/mark...osi-taiwan-headlines US equity markets are accelerating their losses suddenly this morning (after briefly touching unchanged from overnight weakness) following headlines that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is reportedly expected to land in Taiwan on Tuesday night. Liberty Times reports, citing people familiar with the matter, Pelosi plans to visit the Legislative Yuan and meet lawmakers on Wednesday. However, the US and Taiwan are still preparing for last minute changes, the paper adds. The PLA military also on Monday issued a fresh propaganda video saying essentially 'we're ready for war' - consistent with prior messages circulating on official Chinese military channels... As FT notes additionally of PLA muscle-flexing as a warning to Pelosi: "China’s PLA also on Saturday carried out live-fire exercises in Pintang, a coastal area in south-eastern Fujian province about 125km from Taiwan. State media also broadcast footage of a Chinese destroyer firing its weapons in the South China Sea, through which the USS Ronald Reagan aircraft carrier group is believed to be sailing after visiting Singapore." _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

China vows military response to Pelosi's visit to Taiwan Chinese Defense Ministry says military action to be taken after US House Speaker defies their threats in going ahead with Taiwan visit. https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/357516 China's government vowed to take "targeted military operations" after US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi defied its threats and visited Taiwan on Tuesday. Defense Ministry spokesman Wu Qian said in a statement: “The Chinese People’s Liberation Army is on high alert and will launch a series of targeted military operations to counter this, resolutely defend national sovereignty and territorial integrity, and resolutely thwart external interference and ‘Taiwan independence’ separatist attempts." China had warned that a visit by Pelosi to the island nation it considers part of its sovereign borders would cross a red line and even threatened to shoot down the Speaker's plane. Pelosi landed in Tapei Tuesday as part of a congressional delegation's tour of eastern Asia this week. “Our congressional delegation’s visit to Taiwan honors America’s unwavering commitment to supporting Taiwan’s vibrant democracy,” the Speaker said upon landing. The last time a Speaker of the House visited Taiwan was in 1997, when Newt Gingrich was Speaker during the Clinton Administration. _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."

Taiwan Cancels Leave of Some Soldiers prepares for War Link Taiwanese defense officials have canceled the leave of some soldiers and officers “to immediately prepare" for the chance of war in response to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Asia this week, according to local reports. China warned early Monday that its military would not “sit idly by” if the House speaker visits Taiwan during her trip this week, echoing similar comments from Chinese President Xi Jinping last week that the United States should not “play with fire.” Pelosi is expected to stop in Taiwan during her visit this week, although the island is not listed on her itinerary. "Her stature as the No. 3 U.S. official means a trip would be highly sensitive," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian told reporters Monday. "As to what measures, let's wait and see whether she insists on this visit." If Pelosi travels to Taiwan, she’ll be the highest-ranking U.S. official to visit the island since former House Speaker Newt Gingrich made the trip in 1997. It’s not clear when Pelosi will arrive in Taiwan, but the House speaker is expected to stay there overnight, officials told CNN. Officials had warned about the trip due to safety concerns amid high tensions with China, which claims Taiwan is part of its territory despite island leaders insisting it is self-governed. The Defense Department is working to ensure around-the-clock monitoring of Chinese movements in the region during her stay, U.S. officials told the outlet. Pelosi released an itinerary for her trip over the weekend that included stops in Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, and Japan. Speculation quickly grew as to whether the House speaker would visit Taiwan, prompting warnings from Chinese media figures of “severe punishment.” CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER The California Democrat began her trip on Monday, landing in Singapore to begin her Asia tour. Pelosi is leading a congressional delegation on her trip made up of Reps. Gregory Meeks (D-NY), chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee; Mark Takano (D-CA), chairman of the House Committee on Veterans' Affairs; Suzan DelBene (D-WA); Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL); and Andy Kim (D-NJ). During their tour, the group will focus on strengthening economic and security partnerships overseas as well as the "democratic governance in the Indo-Pacific region," according to Pelosi's press release. | |||

... and now as a result of the visit ... a lot of butt hurt being displayed ... rumbling and raging ... Global Times tweet: PLA will conduct important military exercises and training activities including live-fire drills in six regions surrounding the Taiwan island from Thursday to Sunday And to add further, the widening gap between US and Chinese interest rates is stoking capital outflows and pressing the Peoples Bank of China (PBOC) to begin tapering monetary policy. <ps> Nancy is 5'5" Humm.

Hooo, weee! What can you say? What we have in Washington today comprises the least competent and most embarrassing leadership this nation has had, ever. I suppose people in every generation of this country have felt that way, but, folks, I do believe that we are the real deal. Honestly, I do.
