Did you hear the US can't supply Ukraine with the Javelins and Stingers as they'd like because of "supply issues". When Biden won't provide specifics on how China is interfering, it means it's spin and nothing as it sounds. He's trying to get his bill passed by blaming Chinese interference to get everyone to support the bill. Maybe the materials they need to make those weapons they have been getting from China all this time. If they're having problems producing weapons for Ukraine, they're going to have problems fighting their own war against China when they run out of weapons. They shouldn't be so cocky gloating over Russia's military performance.

The credibility of whatever the US accusing is extremely low now, nobody believe it and nobody cares ..... just no credibility at all sadly

President Biden has been undecided on the question but has recently revisited the issue as the White House looks to reduce the highest inflation in four decades, according to one of the people

Speaking at a Milken Institute Global Conference on Monday, Ms. Tai appeared to disagree. She said that U.S. efforts to reduce inflation in the short term shouldn’t sacrifice longer-term policy goals, such as addressing China’s trade practices and enhancing supply-chain resilience.

Is Ms. Tai on our payroll as well?

US has population problems so instead of learning to deal they're trying to turn back the clock on women's rights, further alienating them from liberal western values and allies who actually espouse these values.

Trying to turn back the clock is going to have its own problems because this isn't the 1950's anymore and US doesn't have 40% of global GDP anymore.

That's the oligarchs throwing some red meat to their conservative-base, while also further provoking liberal-conservatives ideological confrontation so that they don't pay attention to the real war, the class-war.

Thats why democracy is stupid. While people are fighting over pointless things they are getting robbed blind by the oligarchs. A new form of feudalism is coming back to America ( and eventually to the whole West). With the nobles on top, and the serfs mindlessly working to get some scraps and to be allowed to live

The dreamland of every oligarch is America.

“The potential action by the US government, as reported, remains to be verified. We believe any such sanction should be based on credible evidence and due process,” Hikvision said in a statement issued after the Financial Times disclosed the White House deliberations. “We look forward to being treated fairly and without bias.”

You mean after they taunted how the Western world and their allies foiled China's ban on Australian wines, it still wasn't enough to save the Australian wine industry? Say it ain't so! What other symbolic unities of the West turns out to be worthless?

This is kind of depressing.
You see how caught up regular people are in governments' geopolitical games. Scott Morrison enjoys a taxpayer funded home and bodyguards, these guys are stabbed in the back.
Russians and Ukrainians both suffering, for what really? A military alliance that will have no affect on day to day life (goes for both sides).
I remember before the pandemic, there were a lot of upset tour operators in Taiwan because Tsai went and called Trump and then the mainland authorities put in some restrictions that dropped tourism.
