Who cares about China's moves in the Pacific! ... the MOST important thing is determining which preferred pronouns should be added to our Constitution!

Let's get our priorities straight!

What’s more important China taking a few more islands or Putin’s revanchist Soviet Union in the early stages of its move on Berlin and Brussels? Let’s try to stay focused on the narrative.

“Australia, also asleep at the wheel, was allegedly surprised by this aspect of the deal.”

Australia is preoccupied with global warming.

While Pelosi and Biden wring their hands over girls who pretend they are boys, and boys who pretend they are girls, and consternate over what pronouns to use, China quietly takes over the world.

After China steals all the fish around the Solomons, they will steal all the fish around Tarawa.

US corporations in league with US politicians are enabling this Chinese imperialism.

All we have to do to stop it is not buy their crap.

You can call me a “neocon” but allowing any of this to actually happen is insanity.

Red China grabbing control of Pacific islands such as Guadalcanal and Tarawa, on which so much American blood was sacrificed to defeat the Japanese, is disturbing. P*ss on the Commies.

Island hopping in reverse, only eighty years later without the battle (yet).

This is odd, eighty years ago was in WWII.

Eighty years before that it was the American Civil War.

Eighty years before that it was the American Revolutionary War.

Eighty years before that it was Queen Anne’s War.

Is there some sort of pattern here?

the Commie/Nazis are at least consistent

1. supporting terrorist murder gangs like PLO/Abbas/Hezballah
2. supporting Iranian dictators’ nuclear bomb and ICBM building program
3. supporting Communist Chinese takeovers of China Sea and now the South Pacific approaching Hawaii

plus, of course, baiting and enabling open warfare in Europe
