Does the Chinese language even have pronouns?
I'm sure the likes of Emma Malonelord has them shaking in their boots.

I dont think it has tense---dont know about pronouns.
Quote:With House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) on her way to Asia and reportedly to visit Taiwan during that trip, the Biden Administration should be standing up to the threats from China and making it clear that such threats will not be tolerated. It’s got nothing to do with whether you like Pelosi or her trip, per se; it’s about not allowing the country to be threatened by China.
But as we noted, they’ve failed to respond appropriately to the threats. The initial response from White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre didn’t condemn the threats at all. Indeed, they didn’t even want to talk about it.
On Monday, Coordinator for Strategic Communications for the National Security Council John Kirby was asked more questions about the Taiwan trip and there can only be one way to describe his response: weak in the extreme. He said Pelosi hadn’t confirmed any travel plans and that “nothing has changed” regarding their “one China policy.”
Are you kidding? They threatened to shoot the Speaker out of the sky. Maybe you should be standing up and condemning them for threatening us and Pelosi? Where are you telling them to pound sand? Instead, it’s all toadying, like “Please, China, don’t be offended, everything is normal” is his response.
Then he also throws Taiwan under the bus exactly at the time we should be standing by them saying specifically that we do “not support Taiwan independence.”
Then Kirby tried to spin prior statements that had been made by Joe Biden about it not being a good idea for Pelosi to go.
I think the reporter Nancy Cordes meant July 20, not August 20. But notice that Kirby doesn’t answer the question about why the Biden team was urging her not to go. He simply evades the question, which tells you they were urging her not to go. That means they’re kowtowing to China.
They pressed him and he still refused to answer what they had said to her.
Then when Real Clear News reporter Philip Wegmann asked why the Biden team hadn’t told China to pound sand and stop belly-aching since this was normal behavior to go, Kirby acted as if he didn’t know what was going on, and accused Wegmann of “manufacturing drama.”
This is about as weak as we could have for anyone in this position. He throws Taiwan under the bus and still hasn’t even condemned China’s actions. How can they not condemn a threat against us and the Speaker? It’s just madness that this is their response. If I were China looking at this, this would embolden me and prompt me to think if we won’t even strongly condemn them over our Speaker, why would we do anything if they invaded Taiwan?
Round 4,367 of this administration digging their own pot holes, driving straight into them, and blaming the car manufacturers.
The Biden administration is scared of Beijing. It's fairly clear to anyone paying attention that they didn't want Pelosi visiting Taiwan because it might make Xi mad. Interestingly, for some reason, she likely wanted to go anyways. So, in order to put extra pressure on her to not make Beijing mad, they outed her trip in the press knowing it would potentially derail her visit. Instead, it has made the administration look weak and feckless (Weak and Feckless sum up their foreign policy well) and now they're trying to blame it all on the people asking the questions because Beijing keeps making the administration it's little biatch. As of now though, no public outcry from liberals to ban the Chinese gov't from twitter for their mean, and downright life-threatening tweets about our sitting SOH.
China can easily embarrass Biden* and his son Hunter but they'll save that for the right opportunity.
Hawk06 nailed it in post above describing this wimpy Administration as scared of Beijing and Beijing keeps making the administration it's little b1tch. 100% accurate; the Big Guy is fully intimidated by China.
China totally OWNS Biden* and he knows it....as do most people.
Quote:The White House communications team is just a mess.
We saw Coordinator for Strategic Communications at the National Security Council John Kirby add to the turmoil with incredibly weak remarks about House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan. Instead of condemning the threats, he seemed to be focused on trying to justify the U.S. position saying we weren’t doing anything differently if she went to Taiwan and no policy had changed. Indeed, he even threw Taiwan under the bus and said that we are not “supportive of Taiwan independence.” He was grilled on why Joe Biden had said that the military didn’t want Pelosi to go, but he refused to answer the question and acted as if Biden had never said that.
Reporters then tried to get a straight answer out of White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. They probably could have figured that would be a lost cause. But Fox’s Peter Doocy asked her about the threat to murder Pelosi by shooting her plane down. He wanted to know where was Joe Biden to say “Don’t do that”? Jean-Pierre’s answer was unbelievable, even for her.
KJP said, “I have not seen those reports.” She acted like this was the first time she’d heard about this.
But Doocy himself asked her about them on July 29 when, as we reported, she delivered a pathetic response and wouldn’t respond to the threats.
So how can she say on Monday that she hasn’t seen reports when she was already asked about those very same reports three days ago? She even acknowledged during her response that she knew Doocy was asking about “the rhetoric we’re hearing from China.” It sounds like she’s just so used to lying and denying that she’s heard reports that she’s asked about, that she just goes into that default mode, even if it isn’t close to being true. Then, KJP continued just to parrot the weak response already given by Kirby on Monday that failed to condemn China over their threats.
Not a good look to claim ignorance, when all people have to do is to pull the video from three days ago and see that she’s lying now.

When it comes to the pot holes (or sink holes in some cases) this administration creates and then drives into---their current standard tactic is to simply claim there is no pot hole and that the photo of a car sticking out of a sink hole is simply an out of context picture of a car making a transition from incredibly level pavement to a slightly bumpier stretch of road. Recession---what recession? Failure in Afghanistan---what failure? High gas prices? What high gas prices? Why gas is cheaper this week than last. Dementia? No dementia here----why Joe cant remember the last time he forgot something (probably the only true thing they might say).

In 1983 the Soviet’s shot down a Korean Commercial Airliner. In 1988 the US shot down an Iranian Commercial Airliner. That’s just two of the 33 commercial or civilian aircraft shot down since the end of WWII.
None of them started WW3. The next one won’t either.

Personally I am offended by this piece of bigoted military propaganda. Where are the Transgenders? The purple haired tattooed hog ringed noses? The brigade of lesbians? Seriously are the mentally disturbed not allowed to equally participate in Chinese society?

I say chance it Nancy.
Bwahahahaha! you really don't like her, do you? Neither do I and if the Chinks did shoot it down the Administration would just tell us that the airplane crashed because of a sudden loss of altitude. All the while Xi laughing at THE SOB's cowering behind his ice cream.
Bite'em is Xi's ***** and THE SOB is the only one who he doesn't get tough with, he knows the federal bureau of intimidation can't protect him from them.
