President Joe Biden said on Wednesday that U.S. military officials believe it’s “not a good idea” for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to visit Taiwan at the moment.
Biden’s comments in an exchange with reporters came a day after the Chinese Foreign Ministry said it would take “resolute and strong measures” should Pelosi proceed with reported plans to visit Taiwan in the coming weeks.
“Well, I think that the military thinks it’s not a good idea right now,” Biden said in response to a question about Pelosi’s reported trip. “But I don’t know what the status of it is.”
The president stopped short of suggesting that Pelosi not travel to Taiwan.
Pelosi was originally scheduled to visit in April but had to postpone after she tested positive for COVID-19. She would be the highest-ranking American lawmaker to visit the close U.S. ally since Newt Gingrich, a Republican, traveled there 25 years ago when he was House speaker.

Someone has to protect their corrupt secrets!!!
Go, Nancy, Go !!!!!!
Yeah. Don’t start a fight. We have a shrinking military. China is taking over Taiwan. Just stay out of it. Would this be happening if Trump was in office. Which he should be.
Taiwan is an independent country, and we should not be bowing to the CCP
Then maybe after they conquer us we will finally get our border closed.
Biden is CIC. Why isn’t he involved in the decision about the trip? He sounds like a bystander.
Yep. "I think," he says, "but I don't know."
Idiot. Why did you even post this? Pelosi is the epitome of evil. If you supported her then you are stupid or evil. Which is it?
I know it’s not likely at this time, but what if China invaded Taiwan while Pelosi was there, and took her hostage?
The folks in Taiwan are not isolated and ignorant.
The whole world knows that Speaker Pelosi is powerless and will be out of her job pretty soon.
The proper procedure is to welcome her, serve her champagne, feed her very well, lay it on to excess, be nice and then do nothing.
Presently, China can’t invade Taiwan
These congress people love to go to foreign countries and parade around like they are some kind of royalty with all their security and caravans.
Well Jo Jo. Now that you have taken control of SCOTUS I don’t see where you’d have a problem taking over Nanzi’ House too.
“I know it’s not likely at this time, but what if China invaded Taiwan while Pelosi was there, and took her hostage?”
They can have her.
Did you even read into the context of what that was about? From your reply, appears you did a low IQ knee jerk.
— “Well, I think that the military thinks it’s not a good idea right now,” Brandon said —
Brandon is not speaking of the US Military. He is speaking of Communist Red China’s Military, who own Brandon and the communist Marxist Brandon Junta.
Red China’s military does not want Pelosi in Taiwan, and the fact that Brandon said something is proof positive of who owns FJB and his criminally corrupt grifting family.

“The hand you cannot bite, you must kiss.”
If she goes...she’ll come back wealther than when she left... for sure
Exactly. The perception in China will be, the Chinese voice of power spoke, and the Paper Tiger crept away!
No, the US has a one China policy that says Taiwan is not a country. It is part of China. The US does not have a diplomatic presence in Taiwan, i.e., no embassy or consulate.
There shouldn’t be two USG positions on the visit, one from DOD and one from Congress. We should have only one foreign policy.
