he could be goign there for humanitarian resons sure, but he could be goign there t build an ironman suit or something idk either way he shouldnt be allowed to just do that.
Civilian Citizens, businesmen, tourists, archeologists... should be...politicians, soldiers, gov employees, people in positions of constitutionally appointed authority...no.

Pelosi wants to retire and do it on her own dime and means without marine protection sure.

All she did this time was endangered lives of service men and women and piss off just about our only trading partner worth anything.

I mean what we're looking at here is so far 1 of 2 scenarios:

1. nobody knows why Pelosi just took the military to Taiwan except Pelosi
2. the government and military is doing some secret op and their best plan to cover it up is to tell us they dont know why Pelosi took the military to Taiwan.

Either way, this is some ideocracy shit.

For real. China should have blasted her aircraft and said nukes if you respond in kind. She should have been treated like a rogue actor or pirate.

Imagine if I just up and decided to commandeer military transport to Taiwan. Since when does the military have to even obey some idiot congress critters?

I hate the idea of a "military conflict" with china, because it would definitly go down like this:

They would kill a bunch of people in taiwan and eventually take it.

We would sanction them.

All our shit would cost more

And they would not give a flying f*&k about the sanctions.

And it'd just be funny to see that happen, TWICE in a row.

I hope people aren't duped into thinking China and Russia are the bad guys anymore. The political power in this country wants us absolutely terrified of them.

As soon as China told her she couldn't there was no turning back. No country is going to let another one dictate that shit to them.

Why she went initially, who knows.

So the plan might be, "well there's no going back now, so lets all pretend nobody knows what's going on"?

Well, that's the most honest guess IMO (I bet the original reason had to do with what Evia said though).

Does this make us look stronger though? Or stupider...

Nancy is not a country. She shouldn't even be in office. She's definitely way past retirement age. And a lobbyist shill.

I agree with Evia and Jibartik.
