We’ve Got Covid, Ukraine, Inflation. The US Shouldn’t Drag Us Into Another War
Yes, it’s China I’m talking about.
What was Nancy Pelosi thinking?
Surely it was well-intended to visit Taiwan and speak with their local politicians about China’s oppression. I’m not a fan of China either, but wasn’t this just foolish?

China’s leader Xi Jinping said:
“Those who play with fire will be perished by it. It is hoped that the US will be clear-eyed about this”

Many experts have been sending warnings about the danger of China, not only military-wise but also in terms of cyber attacks, together with Russia.
