US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is expected to visit Taiwan as part of her tour of Asia, according to a senior Taiwanese government official and a US official, despite warnings from Biden administration officials, who are worried about China’s response to such a high-profile visit.

The stop – the first for a US House speaker in 25 years – is not currently on Pelosi’s public itinerary and comes at a time when US-China relations are already at a low point.

The Taiwanese official added that she is expected to stay in Taiwan overnight. It is unclear when exactly Pelosi will land in Taipei.

The US official added that Defense Department officials are working around the clock on monitoring any Chinese movements in the region and securing a plan to keep her safe.

I mean, I wouldn't lose any sleep if the Chicoms shot her out of the sky, but the ramifications would be much less than desirable.

Pardon me while I go pray for forgiveness for my unclean thoughts on the possible disposition of Ms Pelosi.

Someone mentioned August 1 might be the day things pop off in the Asian theater.

Stay frosty, folks.

If the LGBFJB admin didn’t want Nanzi to go, they could deny her the use of military aircraft. Trump did it when the govt. was shut down and Pelosi & her henchmen were departing on a European junket. They show up at Andrews, and their luggage already had been sent back to their Capitol Hill offices. Of course, Trump has brass balls, and Brandon is a corrupt pussy with dementia.

Pelosi tells Biden what to do, not the other way around.

Well, she tells Dr. Jill what to do, who then tries explaining it to Joe as she gives him his pudding cup.

The Chinese are probably just teasing us. She’ll safely return to the US and we’ll still be stuck with her.
