Remember the chicom’s big AI breakthrough, Deep Six. That was all illegally procured Nvidia chips.

The Chinese haven’t had an original thought in over 2000 years.

OK, now we know the history of the situation but what is missing here?

“A Billion Dollars’ Worth of Nvidia Chips Fell Off a Truck”

A billion dollar load just “falls off.”

No accompanying security vehicles, no guards, nothing.

$1,000,000,000.00.

And not a word in the article regarding the title, just a bunch of crap, probably generated by AI.

I wonder how much the payoff was?

Modern China is built on theft of western intellectual property.

Admission of the CCP-China to the World Trade Organization was always a big mistake.

“The Chinese haven’t had an original thought in over 2000 years.”

Many top US research scientists have Chinese last names.

I’m shocked to hear he fell out of his own window.

Nothing to see here either.

They were probably hauling them to the Port of Portland-China’s US port.

They’ll probably keep a few to copy, and sell the rest to the Russians.

“Fell of the truck” “Honest officer- we were just collecting them to bring them back to the shipping company”

“Fell off a truck” is a figure of speech indicating that merchandise has been diverted into illicit channels. Don’t take it too literally.

They expect me to believe they just fell off the back of a truck?

I didn’t fall off the back of a truck either.
