I didn’t write it. Maybe it’s false, maybe it’s like Vietnam advisors in or out of the official war years.

At least I have given three places to read about the topic.
Sorry for problems I caused.

China is doing it with money instead of troops

True, instead of troops there will be chicom contractors to build ports, chicom students to flood the universities. These of course will wear no uniforms, but will still be PLA troops in civilian roles. They do it everywhere. The U.S. has one of the largest PLA populations outside of mainland china in its schools and large city enclaves with more pouring across their open southern border daily.

It actually shows weakness in the extreme. HER COMMANDER in CHIEF told her not to go, she disobeyed openly. A President of her own party, and she showed him her finger.

THAT is weakness, bare assed to the CCP.

“so stop giving money to the Solomons”

Just what the CCP wants! Do the citizens really want what their traitorous “leaders” sold-out on?

Canceling the College loan refunds would probably buy the Solomans back—Honor our fallen...

A lot easier to wage war in the Solomons than with Russia or China right before the mid-terms.

I will argue that in your ignorance, you miss the point entirely.

The US Coast Guard is part of Homeland Security. There is apparently an international effort to police or study fishing industry to counteract the Chinese worldwide effort to violate various national, various countries, fishing waters. Homeland Security has been assigned the American participation.

The Chinese poach fish where it is illegal.

I’m sure that being a neo isolationist, you find it hard to comprehend American participation in such an international effort conducted by civil rather than military international vessels. However, the Coast Guard is in fact the Homeland Security agency with the required skills and resources to accomplish the task
