As U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi plans to depart for a tour of Asia on Friday, her stop in Taiwan could be complicated with China threatening to shoot down her plane, according to state media.
The “Global Times” propaganda commentator Hu Xijin wrote, “If US fighter jets escort Pelosi’s plane into Taiwan, it is invasion. The PLA has the right to forcibly dispel Pelosi’s plane and the US fighter jets, including firing warning shots and making tactical movement of obstruction. If ineffective, then shoot them down.”

Conservative Brief quoted CNN:
Pelosi is bringing a delegation of fellow lawmakers on the visit. She has refused to answer reporters’ inquiries about her plans, saying on Wednesday in response to a question about a potential Taiwan visit, “I never talk about my travel. It’s a danger to me.”
Taiwan has emerged as a serious point of conflict between the US and China, as US officials fear a more imminent Chinese move on the self-governing island. National security officials have quietly worked to convince Pelosi of the risks her potential trip to Taiwan could pose during a highly sensitive moment.
In a lengthy and candid phone call on Thursday, Chinese President Xi Jinping issued a stern warning to President Joe Biden over the issue.

The Western Journal notes:
Taiwan, an island off the coast of China, became the refuge for China’s Nationalist government in 1949 after it lost the Chinese civil war to Mao Zedong and the Communists.
The United States does not officially recognize Taiwan’s government but has a policy that no changes in the status quo should take place. Under the leadership of Xi Jinping, China has taken an increasingly aggressive tone toward Taiwan, claiming that the island is rightfully a part of China and should be governed as such. That has sparked increased military maneuvers around Taiwan.
Biden that’s your buddies
She should call their bluff and go anyways.
She should go so China can take her Sorry Budd out
once & for all…Nancy nobody is going to miss you….
She should use her broom to fly in on so there is no collateral damage. She isn’t worth anyone else’s life. I’m sure she can catty enough vodka and ice cream.
I think Numbnuts (Biden) should accompany Nitwit Nancy aboard that plane as a Waist Gunner, with Hillary flying the plane (She knows how to dodge Sniper Fire.) And the rest of Congress should ride in the cabin to jump into action, and save us from those Anti-Woke, Climate Killing, Border-Breaching Bastards!! Semper Fi!!
Sounds like a good idea.
Well said
“her stop in Taiwan could be complicated with China threatening to shoot down her plane, according to state media.” So where is the problem?
Dave, I so agree. It’s REALLY bad when China hates your guts, and your to dumb to acknoledge it.
fingers crossed!
Adam Schitt and Schmuck Schumer should be her “Wingmen”
Nancy should go to Taiwan and take hubby and bozo Biden to.
Maybe China will save us?
Just don’t want anyone else taken out – pilots are too valuable to lose over her or any of those worthless Dems.
Is she going to pickup bidens payoff?
This shit would never happen with Trump’s White House.
There’s a lot of stuff that wouldn’t be happening if the election hadn’t been stolen. The list is too long to even start.
is the U.S. going to bow to China – just because it’s demented old fool of a POTUS is on the CCP payroll?
CAN WE START A GO FUND ME PAGE TO GIVE CHINA $ TO SHOOT HER DOWN ?
I WILL START WITH A $10 DONATION
Shoot her down? Please do! You’d be doing us a favor!
The CCP bozos will rattle their sabers about Taiwan but take no action like shooting anyone down. China Pres. Xi is an aggressive leader like murderous Mao Zedong, Chairman Mao, who killed millions of Chinese while driving the southern Chinese nationalists under Generalisimo Chiang Kai Chek into exile on Formosa, now Taiwan. We must be alert and protective of our own, especially a Congressional delegation, but this is bluster and bluff. In no way does China equal our military prowess, except for numbers in uniform. Not to worry, but keep watching.
Realistically, what Nancy Pelosi has been willing to do to this country for the last 12 13 years, does anyone really care if Nancy pelosi’s plane gets shot down, the way I see it is one down two to go and one plane down for eliminating greenhouse gases…
