American on the internet: the CCP persecutes religious groups in China and squashes those who dissent from Xi’s rules for religion.

Man living in China and in good graces of Xi: how dare you say bad things about Xi and that he squashes dissent. I’m going to sue you to squash

The Chinese Communist Party claiming the ppl they oppress each day are the happiest ppl in the world…

Like Trump, Ramaswamy flipped from saying he wanted to ban on TikTok, to opposing a ban; here he says the ban is 'unprincipled' and 'unconstitutional.'

.Michael D. Swaine: “getting serious about Taiwan” will require 🇨🇳 to recommit to “its long-standing policy of peaceful unification.”

Expecting the CCP to do so is irresponsible statecraft.

It’s also a deeply unserious reading of Beijing’s intentions & actions.

It takes a certain level of shamelessness to lobby the U.S. Congress on behalf of a CCP company linked to genocide, then run for a seat in the House of Representatives.

“Taiwan” is nowhere to be found in 1971’s Res. 2758, nor is 🇹🇼 a province of . The United Nations misinterprets it, we don’t & the world shouldn’t. We must stop from exploiting this as carte blanche to claim any territory it desires.

Page 38 of Countering China's Great Game gives the birds-eye view of dynastic China's imperial foreign policy.

This was one of the most fascinating parts of the book to write. I remain astounded how many policymakers in Washington ignore or downplay China's imperial past.

.UN Spokesperson is dead wrong. UNGA Res 2758 says nothing of the sort.

There's an old as dirt idea in basketball that it doesn't matter if your opponent knows your plays because if you execute there's nothing they can do.

The PRC’s latest military drills around Taiwan in retaliation for their free and fair presidential transition of power is expected, but that’s the point. Not only serving as a PR stunt, these exercises are designed to wear down our ability to differentiate real military action
