Lord Of War ❗The Speaker of the House of Representatives of the US Congress, Nancy Pelosi, due to her acute dissatisfaction with Beijing, may be limited to a transit stay at the Taipei Airport in Taiwan to meet with the island's leadership, the South China Morning Post writes.
— "Recently, China has repeatedly expressed to the United States its serious concern and solemn position against Speaker Pelosi's visit to Taiwan, emphasizing that her visit to Taiwan will lead to serious consequences.
In a phone call with President Biden a few days ago, President Xi Jinping emphasized that the position of the Chinese government and Chinese people on the Taiwan issue is consistent, and it is the firm will of the more than 1.4 billion Chinese people to resolutely safeguard China's national sovereignty and territorial integrity.
Public opinion cannot be violated. Playing with fire will set yourself on fire.

Everything is an “emergency” when you want to maintain you dictator powers.
You’re exactly right.
They manufacture all of their crises, then, dictate their *solution* to the problem....they created.
So sorry that this sister issue is happening, in your sweet family, dj.
I don’t know the back stories, of course, but....is this something Lauren may regret not doing, years from now?
Not having her oldest sister invited to this memorial?
Again...no idea what the internal situation is....if there’s a concern for having this sister attend.
I’ll certainly keep this situation in my prayers....for all of you....for His peace and understanding, during this very difficult time. 💞
She also told me,Ted Nugent was on C-Span the other day and a must see to prepare America for what is to come!
Did your dear mom happen to say what The Nuge’s specific warnings were?
I think Ayman al-Zawahiri is the Dread Pirate Roberts.
I can see how different that is for you, you want everybody along I don’t want to see any of your children hurting.
Amen. Thank you.
Thanks for the delicious waffle, bacon and egg sandwich.
Good morning , Freee-dame. You are welcome.
This is a very difficult situation, dj. I have said to my kids, as a mother, one of the things you most want is that your children stay connected, and even close to each other. That is a very tricky thing, as our children are all just people, very different from each other, and walk different ways in life sometimes.
My question is, what does Ryan want? I’m sure he wouldn’t want to go against Lauren’s wishes, but, on the other hand, perhaps this is an opportunity to mend some fences. I guess it depends on how serious and deep the issues are.
The whole situation has enough sadness, it sure doesn’t need to be used to surface extra strife. I think I’ll land on your side on this one - it would have to be a pretty serious offence committed by Lauren’s sister to NOT be able to overlook it in this case.
My heart goes out to you, dear dj.
Yum lysie! Thanks! Did you get that storm last night?
Lol I saw that sweetie! Was this guy already dead? Funny, when I first heard the news, what flashed through my mind was, “This guy was still alive? I thought he was already decaying nicely, like a good little terrorist.”
I was hoping to hear that China had shot down Nanzi’s plane this morning.....it’s the least they could do after unleashing the rona on the world. I seriously wonder what is soooooo urgent, massive, important that Nanzi would go to this length to high-tail it over to Taiwan. Wonder what she’s got to take care of over there.....gotta be more than just stock options. Is Taiwan full of the American cabal corruption, just like Ukraine? Inquiring minds want to know.
Good morning, Judy. You are welcome. No storm last night, but this morning it sure looks like we will have one.
Good morning, lysie!
An amazing breakfast sandwich this morning!
We are so spoiled!
Thank you!
How are you feeling, exit?
