    I remember that, but I'm confused about the "vodka" bit. That's just an odd choice that I assume has to have some significance in the choice of alcohols, but I'm mystified about it.

    Probably implying that she's bought and paid for by Russia

    Vodka just has more association with alcoholism.
    If they use wine or something it doesn't have the same alcoholism punch I think.

    Sounds like 75% of our politicians.

    EDIT: Apparently she landed in Taiwan and nothing happened. Whodathunkit?

    I was disappointed that China didn't attack.
    My guess is that China will attack while US is in the evening. 12 more hours to go.

    I'm guessing because Vodka in some circles is considered "a woman's" drink, unlike manly drinks like Beer.

He also urges others to end relationships and friendships just to "vote Trump out". https://ibb.co/2jRnZGC He can't seem to walk the talk himself.

    President Xi Jinping wildly overreacting to Pelosi visiting Taiwan reminds me of his inability to use his authoritarian powers to get his citizens vaccinated just in the whole “fear of old ladies” sense.

    I know satellite tracking is a thing. This is adding more layers of safety. China doesn't want war.
    The last time a politician was this safe, it was the first Bush. No one wanted Dan Quayle as president. Bush had a Invul 1+ wit Quayle in the wings.

    Now if I'm wrong, this is a shitstorm of biblical proportions. But I'm feeling safe in my bet.

    If their military is just twice as competent as Russias, then it’ll still be a rather quick beatdown by the US.

    I honestly have no issue with Russia and China getting out of their “global power” delusions in 2022

    I doubt China's going to start anything over a visit to Taiwan. They'll rattle their sabers, puff out their cheeks and glare sternly for a while, then pat themselves on the back when Pelosi leaves and claim it was their big scary army that made her 'flee' rather than, like, the diplomatic mission reaching it's ultimate conclusion.

    At worst I can see them scrambling jets to do more scary flybys, but even then I'm not sure how much they want to risk fucking around with a US Carrier Strike Group within 'Find out' range.

    According to the Japanese media, 22 escort planes. Including 8 US fighter jets and 5 refueling aircrafts that took off from Japanese bases.

    The flight route was deep in Malaysian, Indonesian and Philippines air spaces before they entered Taiwanese airspace. From Malaysia the flight crossed Kalimantan, across the Sea of Sulawesi, and north along the eastern side of the Philippines and into Taiwan.

    That doesn't exactly support your earlier idea that there was a need to mask Pelosi's flight transponder.

    22 airplanes !
    Turning the tracker off is useless.
    There is no way that China didn't see that.

    Just shoot down when you see 10 or more "unknown" airplanes.

    You really don't know much, do you?

    USS Ronald Reagan (supercarrier) battle group which includes the destroyer USS Higgins, and the guided-missile cruisers USS Antietam and USS Chancellorsville was operating near Taiwan. Tripoli (superdeck amphibious ship carrying 25 F-35s) was also in the area. About half a dozen Japanese ships were also conducting maneuvers around Taiwan. So much fire power for an old lady.
