A New Series: Keeping up with the Pelosis …
With enough drama to keep up with at least three seasons, Pelosi, having successfully returned home from her long-awaited trip to Taiwan, is now engaging in another slap-fight with Xi Jinping.
In an interview on NBC’s Today, she said of the trip, “Yes, it was worth it,” and “[Xi] is in a fragile place…he’s acting like a scared bully.”
Pelosi Piling Insult upon Injury…
… at a time when some are frightened of a war between America and China breaking out — or any war in general, really. Though the continual back-and-forth does bring back fond memories of Trump and Kim Jong-un’s rivalry, Cockburn doubts this nuclear-level soap opera will be settled so amicably.
Guess Who Was Along for the Ride?
In unrelated news, the lawyer of Paul Pelosi Sr., Nancy’s husband, pleaded not guilty for him in court. Also, it turns out Nancy wasn’t the only Pelosi in Taiwan. Despite the constant coverage of the trip, nobody noticed Paul Pelosi Jr. along for the ride.
According to Jesse Watters (Fox News)
Pauly Jr. is on the payroll of two lithium mining companies and Asia just happens to be a lithium gold mine and Taiwan just happens to be a world leader in lithium battery production. He’s also heavily invested in Singapore’s energy sector. Wasn’t that another stop on Nancy’s trip?
South Korea is another place where the Fresh Prince does business. Just a few months ago, his company struck up an EV battery deal there. What do you know, Nancy went to South Korea also.
According to Cockburn, as much as Nancy’s trip garnered the adulation of the media and further grandstanding from an embarrassed China, it also exposed her family’s ulterior motives for visiting those places in the first place.
