Just hours ahead of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s planned trip to Asia, Chinese state media has threatened to shoot down her plane and U.S. military pilots escorting her.

The threat comes 24-hours after President Joe Biden spoke with Chinese President Xi Jinping for two hours on a call from the White House. The communist government’s readout of the conversation also included a threat in response to Pelosi’s planned trip to Taiwan.

Gallows humor.


No, I get why people joke about it. But the fact that the Red China government press dares to tell the United States of America what it can and cannot do, where we can and cannot fly our planes or where our Navy can and cannot go is intolerable. The fact that they do this the day after Brandon allegedly had a two-hour call to Xi says a lot.

The election of 2020 has been an unmitigated disaster for our nation.

When a nation is in an existential war, niceties are tossed aside and ignored.

“Those folks between Spain and France who cause trouble once in awhile? Great people!”

You are thinking of the Basques.

Maybe we could avoid the international incident if they could have someone simply throw a bucket of water on this wicked witch.

Lots of Basque influence in our area. And we aren’t even close to U-rope.

That has been a well known fact since 2020.

If the Chinese shoot down Pelosi it will give her an honorable way to go out instead of being proven to have been instrumental in insider trading on the stock market. If the rancor becomes louder about her insider trading she may have to resign in disgrace and getting shot down by the Reds would give her an out instead of being disgraced or her committing suicide.

“intolerable”

Most likely Biden would choose to ask for her remains rather than fight a war.

China threatened to shoot them down, if they try to land. I don’t like it, and I don’t like the situation with Russia. But it’s the situation that we have.

By the thought patterns and cultures of our enemies, if we recede, they will advance and try to bully more. Worse yet, they’ll continue military buildups with ongoing plans to conquer and enslave us.

They see our free speech as the greatest threat to their power. Their cultures’ yearning for empire continues.

Back in the ‘60s, many of us American school children were shown a Russian propaganda film. In it, a Russian girl presented what Russians believed to be a wonderful family life in Russia. But even with the girl’s cheerfulness in front of the scenes and information in the presentation, we saw squalor and intolerable living conditions.
