					<description><![CDATA[Right. 
Now let&#039;s do Taiwan...
From 10 April 2023:
&quot;China ends military drills after practicing blockade of Taiwan&quot;---
https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/04/10/asia-pacific/china-taiwan-military-exercises-day-three/
&quot;China &#039;ready to fight&#039; after 3 days of large-scale military drills around Taiwan&quot;---
https://abcnews.go.com/International/china-ready-fight-after-3-days-large-scale/story?id=98494152

But don&#039;t worry! &quot;Biden&quot;&#039;s cool, calm and collected finger is on the trigger...and Honest A. Blinken&#039;s carefully monitoring the situation. Moreover, Gen. Milley&#039;s preparing another emergency memo to reassure Xi that Milley will once again NOT allow Trump to launch an attack, he can count on it; besides, Trump is too busy at the moment attacking DeSantis and Kayleigh McEnany...

As usual, the country&#039;s in the best of hands...
Count on it...]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Reports say:

 China&#039;s Air Force&#039;s planes and/or military planes have been doing [dangerous] maneuvers near US military planes, in International air-spaces.

 China&#039;s probably doing this [to try to bully the US military OUT of certain areas, in the air-spaces above Asia, (as in- the air-spaces above The South China Sea).

 It would be really helpful President Biden, for you to talk to reporters and condemn these unsafe and bad, military actions being done by China.

 But of course, you won&#039;t.

 China knows that he won&#039;t, because Biden&#039;s advisors likely tell him [to not cause problems between The US + China],...and if he did, that would make him and The Democrats look bad.

 China knows that Biden won&#039;t stand up to them, so China will keep doing deadly threats to The US Military.

 In all seriousness, we really need you to stand up for The US Military, Mr. President.

					<description><![CDATA[House GOP should simply demand that Biden require Wray comply with the subpoena. If Biden doesn&#039;t, impeach Biden.

And that is a story that is incredibly simple to tell the people. Biden has no defense. The corruption is blatant.

It&#039;s the best possible way to focus the attention of the world on Biden&#039;s criminality. Regardless of the lack of a senate conviction, it frames the issue for the election perfectly.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&quot;...It could be updated to add...&quot;

In fact, it has ALREADY been updated (in a manner of speaking) to include ANYONE---OF ANY RACE, COLOR OR CREED---who believes in MERIT, in HARD WORK, in HONESTY and in FAIRNESS.
Well...so much for diversity(!)...
(And so much for Dr. MLK...amongst many, many others who believe in the inherent goodness of America.)
(Come to think of it, that&#039;s why I sometimes find myself fantasizing about a Tim Scott/Larry Elder ticket in 2024---just to see the Democratic Party and its supporters and media pals fall over themselves---go totally ape-s***, hysterically labeling those two stalwarts as &quot;the TRUE FACE---the EPITOME---of White, Racist, TRUMPIST Supremacism(TM), etc... Well, one can certainly fantasize...but I wonder if Tim Scott might be considered as VP material...)

E.g., this fellow is remarkable:
https://twitter.com/BernardKerik/status/1663655376435175427?cxt=HHwWhoCz0YPwvpYuAAAA
H/T Lee Smith Twitter feed.
...And he&#039;s no doubt, as we speak, being labeled a WHITE SUPREMACIST by all the usual suspects.

Actually, Lee Smith is on a roll with a number of things that would seem to be &quot;under the radar&quot;:
- On the climate crisis scam::
