Yeah...and they haven't even felt the full force of the returning tsunami...they should be wholesale eliminating any barrier to stimulate activity but the control-freak impulse in communists runs deep...they will never go that far...so yes, pain and lots of it.

Hello?

Heh, next target of opportunity - EU.

That'll get the commies here bunched-up diapers...all socialists love uneven playing fields and subsidies are always their favored method of transferring extorted taxpayers funds to loyal campaign-supporting cronies.

Ross properly begins the HK revocation process...goodbye STS...

All well and good...but they are literally waging war every way possible...time to increase the pain level several notches.

Commies, no matter where they are...damned fed up with 'em!

WOW.
I used to watch the video blogs of the ADVChina guys.  My understanding of China is 100s of anecdotes and examples.
They are honest to people they owe a duty of honesty to. That includes family. They cheat others including strangers and especially foreigners. I do not hate Chinese. They are what they are. it is best to recognize what they are.
They get a lot more for their money via loans than the US military gets with weapons. I do not side with them but respect them.

It is good to see Trump going after Chinese spies in the US.  They are just being loyal to China.

Who else operates that way?

All Commies?  YES!!!
All Democrats?  (See Commies)
All FakeNews Outlets?  (See Commies)
All SocialistMedia monopolists?  (See Commies)
All Crony-Capitalists?  (Appeasers of Commies if not outright Commies)  YES!!!
All Cucks (See Appeasers)
Criminals?  YES!!!
.
.
.
And the most obvious to any fully-aware sentient creature...the practitioners of kitman, taqiyya, tawriya and muruna whom the Commies...excuse me, the dhimmi's are obedient to...unlike us kaffar (kafir singular infidel) who know them for the treacherous evil they are - the Mohammadan's!

Commies and space-rock apocalyptic cultists have a lot in common...and none of it virtuous.

Well, the chest-beating, wreckless boating/airplane actions and threatening "nuclear war" hasn't worked...so I guess they'll at least look like they're talking...before repeating the cycle again...

Keep denying reality...see if I care...

See if Trump and America care...

China could be on the brink of exhausting its massive frozen pork reserves as the country's pig herd is wiped out by African swine fever.

Declining reserves are particularly bad news for the Communist Party of China, which is worried that it might not be able to prevent another destabilizing surge in prices.
.
.
.
As prices continue to climb amid dwindling reserves, the CPC will need to increase imports of frozen pork from the US or Latin America, limiting supplies of fresh pork even further (Chinese consumers typically prefer fresh to frozen, and have been known to be suspicious of China's frozen reserves).

Well, isn't that interesting...

Yup.  Family first, but for a healthy nation - Self-sufficiency in the key things - food, fabrication & fighting capability.
