You may wonder: Why did the US provide China with Intel about Russia? Is the US trying to create a wedge between China & Russia? What lesson(s) Taiwan can learn? Could Taiwan experience similar fate as that of Ukraine if it decides to declare independence?
This comes on the heels of a delegation sent by POTUS to Taiwan led by former chairman of the joint chiefs of staff Mike Mullen in addition to four other former defense and security officials who are set to meet Taiwan’s president premier. One of the US's top officials is Michele Flournoy who was previously an undersecretary of defense. After stepping down from office, she formed a global strategic advisory firm with now secretary of state Anthony Blinken. Flournoy is seen as a popular candidate for the next US Secretary of defense.
Whatever the case may be, conventional wisdom suggests that the US’s provocation(s) of China could lead to some unattended consequences. The Ukraine/Russia fiasco is a case in point. Will it ever end???

Ukraine came out and said Navalny's death wasn't in fact Putin (as Biden and the US Policy makers were so quick to decry)! David & Elizabeth react to the news in this short reaction video!

China - US trade talk in Madrid: substantial agreement is unlikely. Reason is simple, China can wait it out.
In the meantime, china slowed or halted purchase of US oil, coal, and many farm produce.
China exports to US drop sharply in 2025, diversification is making good steady progress:
Lots of talk about Ai race between China and USA . Often, reality is being overlooked.
Using its less advanced domestic Ai chip sets, innovative Chinese peasants are successfully doing a lot of AI works without America's Ai chips. The question to the deluded Americans is: can USA mass produce Ai chips without Chinese rare earth?
No Chinese rare earth will virtually bring the USA AI progress to a near standstill. Need to say more?
(Side note: Also, all chips makers including TSMC uses rare earth elements, like gallium and germanium, in the manufacturing of advanced chips, as these materials are crucial for creating the unique properties needed for high-performance semiconductors. China dominates the global supply of these rare earths, which are essential for various chip applications, including those in AI, IoT, and robotics.)
When US government busy itself using war and regime change to force its political ideals on other countries; its politicised citizens are doing same, often taking extreme measures to eliiminate others with different political beliefs.
In the first six months of 2025, more than 520 plots and acts of terrorism and targeted violence occurred, affecting nearly all US states and causing 96 deaths and 329 injuries. This is a nearly 40% increase over the first six months of 2024, according to data from the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism at the University of Maryland.
