Breaking: China Dispatches Warships, ASW Aircraft and Fighter Jets off Coast of Taiwan Following Fall of Afghanistan #BidenEffect

The Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) on Tuesday launched joint live-fire assault drills in multiple locations off the coast of Taiwan.

This is just what Jack Posobiec and The War Room said would happen next.

China is emboldened with US weakness in the region, the historic collapse of Afghanistan, and the frail puppet installed in Washington DC.

On Monday Steve Bannon warned that the US economy will implode if Taiwan falls to the Communist Chinese. According to Bannon he entire American economy centers around the chips, and in particular, the advanced chips designed, made, and manufactured in Taiwan.

The Global Times reported:

The Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) on Tuesday launched joint live-fire assault drills in multiple locations near the island of Taiwan in response to recent collusion and provocations by the US and Taiwan secessionists.

The PLA Eastern Theater Command on Tuesday dispatched warships, anti-submarine warfare aircraft and fighter jets in surrounding maritime and aerial areas near the southwest and southeast of the island of Taiwan for military exercises including joint live-fire assaults, and also for testing the command troops’ integrated joint operation capabilities, Senior Colonel Shi Yi, spokesperson of the command, announced on the same day.

Recently, the US and Taiwan authorities have been frequently colluding and making provocations, sending wrong signals that severely violates China’s sovereignty and seriously damage peace and stability in the Taiwan Straits. They have become the biggest source of security risk in the region, Shi said.

The exercises are a necessary action taken based on the current security situation in the Taiwan Straits and the need to safeguard national sovereignty, and are a solemn response to the foreign interferences and the provocations by “Taiwan independence” forces, the spokesperson said.

Bocce takes a certain amount of strategy and planning. If Biden plays any sport at all, it’s speed napping.

The Biden Regime destroys America at a break-neck pace...and the GOP does nothing to stop it.

As expected.

"Both" "sides" would rather burn the country down and rule the ashes than risk a return of President Mean Tweets.

The DNC and GOP, opposite sides of the same Möbius strip.

>>> I don’t think Taiwan was ever mentioned in the Q posts

Neither was a lot of stuff they said was going to happen.

I know I remember seeing the forecast.

Obviously it wasn’t widely repeated.

I second the motion and while we’re at it let’s throw in San Francisco and perhaps DC too as freebies.

All advanced microchip design and manufacting is there - we offshored it there years ago.

China takes over Taiwan, they control virtually all chips around the world for cars, waepon systems, aircraft, computers, and every other electronic device.

You don't suppose China has Hawaii in its sights, do you?

It wasn’t in any of the Q posts, I’ve read them.

What some people said was going to happen, they basically made it up.

China is not invading Taiwan this week.

Yeah?

Saint biden the Divine said the Taliban would take months to secure Afghanistan.

Are you, by any chance, one of his speech writers?

planned for a while.
***Yeah huh, the Soviets used to play that little game as well. So Reagan started having exercises, one after the other, all across the globe. The soviets quit that game somewhere around 1987.

“Give china New York City in exchange for peace”

I would add DC/Boston/Philly/Atlanta/LA/Detroit/San Fran/Seattle/Portland/Houston to the list, although they already own much of the real estate in those towns.

Biden needs to appoint Trump to a cabinet position and let him take care of this.

I didn’t say Bocce, I said Botchy on purpose.

Maybe next time I should say “Botchy”-Ball?

It was too good a pun to pass up....

Lots of tech R&D to steal, chip factories and secrets.

WHICH SHOULD ALL BE REPATRIATED TO THE USA USING STEEP IMPORT TARIFFS.
