I loved that scene...

“He has got to be the worst pirate ever”

[pirate manages to entice the crew off of their fully rigged ship and onto his, which he has disabled... then he sails away on their ship]

“He has got to be the best pirate ever”

The China/Obama/Biden Regime warns US House Speaker not to meet Taiwan president.

How long before the Biden Just-us Department indicts McCarthy on specious charges?

What are they going to do, refuse to give him back his laundry?

In a serious note, anyone else (sarcasm) notice in the past two years the US is being removed from the world stage?

To be fair China told Nancy not to meet in Taiwan. She went anyway. McCarthy should do the same.

Taiwan is nothing more than a trading partner with the USA. We are not allies....period.

Taiwan means more to America and Americans than the Ukraine and whatever the Biden’s have invested there.

But all we get from Taiwan is only 90% of the chips we need to function. We need the Ukraine for the biden family to launder their money.

As a trade partner...you bet. China is their No. 1 trading partner...and they're dependent on the electronics, too.

The difference is...China and Taiwan are "One". The USA is a "begger" at the trough of Taiwan.

We have an Embassy in China.

We have no embassy in Taiwan.

Why are we "funding" Ukraine...just to be a nice? If we cared...we would have had an agreement before this war started.

At least we share an Ocean with Taiwan. The only thing we share with Ukraine is money laundering and bad decisions.

It must be nice to be able to eat ice cream all the time without having to worry about getting a brain freeze.
