In comments at the Richard Nixon Library, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has vowed that the US will “no longer tolerate” Chinese actions, accusing them of threatening the existing global order.
Pompeo said that the US had rescued China’s economy with a trade deal, and that in return China had sent “propagandists into our press conferences.” It’s not clear what that meant, though the US is hostile to Chinese media outlets recently.
This is just the latest of several bellicose comments Pompeo has made on China in recent days, and he continued to bash Huawei as a “national security threat, vowing that the US will take more actions against them.
Pompeo seems to be taking the lead in hostility toward China both domestically and internationally, and all signs are that his is going to continue.
the amerikans will tolerate everything and anything, except for freedom and justice—these automatons produce nearly nothing….”the people of amerika accept a level of ugliness in their daily lives nearly without precedent in the history of western civilization”. Yuri Bezmenov
this self uglified cretin is afraid of North Korea and Iran—she whines about China in the Spratleys and paracel Islands and does nothing…the USA is a paper tiger, as Mao observed
Pompeo is wayyyy overdue for his fatal heart attack … The sooner, the better.
He has his tough cop porn talk, of zero socially redeming value when dealing with the eternal Chinese. He needs to read the art of war before he talks himself, his boss & us into a corner with the rest of the world knodding in agreement, but DOING what is best for them in their dealings with his new great satin. With the decadent British cheering him on, and their sugar plum dreams of Hong Kong as their retained Eastern Colonial outpost of Royalist vigor. How ever spent the US. may be as a dying empire, the British are far ahead in their inevitable slide to the bottom: Even so dense, as to allow themselves to be dragged back to that country with the U.S. who has humbled them before and will soon repeat their mortification another time. As the Fed prints & prints as if the goose can never die. Fighting Russia, China, Syria, Venezuela and the Carona Virus with our welfare Queen Ally stirring up more new expense & confrontations does not make for a conforting ride to the next crisis with you know at the helm. And the Creepy alternative is an even less apt alternative. Worse yet, these terrible two seemed to have captured the inevitability that one of them will inherit the whole broken current mess with no light at the end of this hole which the two party duopoly has wrought. No chance now of a new, young fresh approach to these fabricated confrontations which sap any remaining ingenuity of resolution or baggage free analysis. Just more of the same old feuds and special interests deals that have brought us where we are now.
Sad but true..
President Pompeo has spoken. Meanwhile, the man who was elected chooses to spend his time on twitter praising our confederate “heroes” and bragging about acing a test for dementia because he remembered the words: person, woman, man, camera and TV.
I guess he is in better shape than Biden.
Maybe they can dedicate one of the debates to only questions that are found on those types of tests. I would enjoy watching two old fools drooling all over themselves trying to remember what day it is.
Pompeo “seems” to be taking the lead in hostility toward China
What does it take for the Author to be convinced?
Pompeo has called for a global crusade against Beijing.
At the Nixon Presidential Library in California on Thursday, Pompeo delivered a borderline messianic tirade against Beijing – which he titled “Communist China and the Free World’s Future.” During the 40-minute address, Pompeo called on US allies to join a worldwide effort to “induce change” in the country’s behavior, warning that Beijing is a threat to “our people and our prosperity.”
“induce change”……..smells like regime change, we know the drill.
The US knows it can`t handle China alone, so it needs the world to behind it.
Pompeo style diplomacy is already in action.
Mr Pomp and the wife are aiming quite audaciously for the top job, and know how to influence the Amreekis.
It does seem that Diplomacy is Dead in Washington and the bullies are in charge, it is really the wrong way to deal with Chinese VIP’s they place such high value on Decorum it has to be extremely insulting to be faced with someone like Pomeeo.
China is ‘threatening the existing world order’. Okay. By that I can only assume he means China is threatening the US empire. Pompeo will not rest until he has the blood of more American soldiers on his hands.
God bless them for that. The American Empire is due for a collapse.
