If the Chinese really want to hurt her?...Cyber attack her husbands investments.
Hack her smart freezer and melt all the ice cream.

She's so old she's ready to kick the bucket anyway, so just let her die peacefully...in a drunken stupor.

RE: China threatens to shoot down Pelosi's plane
Tom Cotton Says Leak About Pelosi's Taiwan Trip Came 'Straight From the White House'
Quote:But Sen.Tom Cotton (R-AR) revealed something that is just despicable, if true, particularly in light of the threats from China — he said that his understanding was the White House leaked Pelosi’s plans to visit Taiwan.
“Well the word I’ve heard in Congress is that the leak of Nancy Pelosi’s trip came straight from the White House, the pressure came from Joe Biden who doesn’t want her to take this trip because he’s once again kowtowing to Beijing,” Cotton explained to Laura Ingraham on Fox News Channel. “But Lloyd Austin and Joe Biden shouldn’t be worried about China’s aggressiveness, they should be making China worry about our aggressiveness,” he noted. “For decades, American lawmakers have been traveling to Taiwan — of both parties — and that should continue now, especially after it became public,” Cotton urged.
Cotton added that he saw Speaker Pelosi earlier in the week and “told her it was absolutely essential that she go forward with this trip, no matter what Joe Biden says.”
Cotton said that they could not allow China to threaten us over a member of Congress visiting Taiwan.
“We cannot back down in the face of these Chinese threats,” Cotton reiterated, saying if Biden “prevents Nancy Pelosi or any other member of Congress from traveling to Taiwan, it will create a major foreign policy crisis — imagine what it will signal to the Chinese Communists if they think they can threaten us into merely not traveling to Taiwan,” Cotton warned. “It might in fact incite them and tempt them to go for the jugular in Taiwan.”
Add that to the White House’s pathetic response to the threats, particularly the one against Pelosi, and one has to ask if Biden is compromised. If Biden is leaking to prevent her from going, so as not to anger China, he is compromised and we are in deep trouble. This is why the investigation into Hunter’s foreign connections is so important. If China can threaten the Speaker of the House and prevent her from going, they will think they can walk all over us and invade Taiwan. That’s where Biden is leading us–just like his weakness may have made Russia believe they could invade Ukraine.

RE: China threatens to shoot down Pelosi's plane
Has China sunk all our ships and reduced the American manland to ash? Not yet? Well, let me know when it starts so I can grab my umbrella. Im kinda wondering if Xi has been taking charm school courses in North Korea.

We should send Schumer, Schiff, Nadler, Maxine Waters, the entire squad and a few other communists with her.

Allowing China to dictate the travel plans of Pelosi or any other member of Congress will only make them more aggressive.

You are mistaken. Tommy reassured us she doesn’t partake of the spirits therefore there is no possible way she could be a drunk!!!!!
She is an abortion loving Catholic as well.

RE: China threatens to shoot down Pelosi's plane
I won't be surprised either way. Honestly, China knows America and this Administration is weak. They'd probably expect sanctions to be the response. If they took out Pelosi they'd be doing us all a favor.

I agree with this. Once the possibility of a visit was made public and China reacted the way they did it really puts the US in that corner. As I type this it seems like she has made the decision to go.

Correct. She has to go now---otherwise it will appear the US caved to China. Besides, its not unprecedented. Newt went to Taiwan when he was speaker.

RE: China threatens to shoot down Pelosi's plane
China's not messing around. They put out a war video!! Be afraid.
I'm sure our military will put out one that will scare the Chinese to death. Using the wrong pronouns has serious consequences....
