SkyNews interview May 14 2020 >> @ << China's ambassador to the UK, Liu Xiaoming, has denied there was any cover-up by his country over the coronavirus outbreak.-Transcript- 1st Question first of all do you accept that China has a problem with trust the world simply at the moment doesn't seem to trust China
1st Answer:
I don't think so
I think we have a good record you know
China is the first country to report
awareness and first to identify the
pathogen first to share genetic sequence
with the tablet oh and many other
countries at a record short time when
God her voice …….
Every Nation in the World 🌍 should Maintain, "Economic Distance" from CCP 🇨🇳 China.
That's the key to defeating CCP 🇨🇳 China.
Eventually drunken blood guzzlers meet their end. Then maybe the american people can have their country back again. Who knows? 🤷♂️🤷♀️
"By nearly every measure of force structure — the number of brigades, aircraft, ships and subs, Marine battalions, and end strength, is smaller than when the [post-9/11] buildup began," wrote budget expert Todd Harrison of the Center for Strategic and International Studies. "Yet this smaller force consumes a budget more than 50 percent larger in real terms than before 9/11. The military is spending more on a smaller force." $596 billion 2015/2016. In the 2017 fiscal year, which began under President Barack Obama and extended into Trump’s term, $606 billion was spent on defense. In the 2018 fiscal year, that number was $670.6 billion.
The 2019 fiscal year saw $685 billion enacted for defense. And for the 2020 fiscal year, Trump signed a bill in December — three months after the fiscal year began — that authorized $738 billion for the Pentagon which in real terms is an increase of 5.1% over 2015/2016 budget. Hardly a resounding "support" of the military.
Bware of thoes scummunist!..
I'm a USN and Vietnam veteran and we need to be strong, we need a strong military to keep the peace. It's clear China is the enemy, they've declared war on the US and now it is perfectly clear they are a threat. Defeat China by boycotting them!
A nation needs to be MORALLY strong before it can become a great nation.
Firstly, you must fight and win coronavirus in USA. If you failed, china or Russia absolutely wins USA economically, and military without sending their troops or Dropping ICBM on US troops. A severe economic loses will simply weakens US military to a great degree. There would be chaos in US cities. Internal conflicts cause more damages in USA. Not only China and Russia but many others US enemies will laugh until their teeth dropping.
Focus. It’s China.
Not my American Heritage Foundation

Best thing for the top of the spear in America to do is to repent…We must begin by cleaning our own house of the many satanic pedophiles, atheistic socialist, neocon zionists, historical revisionist in academia, corrupt lobbists, alien-foreign run fed reserve burocrats, and then built up traditional-historical christian education and constitutional culture, as well as the lcritical ocal infrastructure. God wills it…American Capital built China..Wall street created, invested, and continues to support the Russian and Chinese and countless revolutions while ignoring the beast at the front door! We are our own worst enemy…Stop lecturing and Repent America! Jesus is coming!
USA # 1, KEEP US STRONG. BACK OUR MILITARY, THIS IS WHAT OBAMA TRIED TO DISTROY.
You guys are nuts. Always more money for military spending. Yes we need to get ready for Russia and China bc that war is coming in just a few years.
Also we need to provide for the civil defense and pandemic preparation should be a part if it. But you guys need to pull troops back home and stop wasting money on stupid dream projects and get busy prepping the country and civilians for the coming Great War.
I know you guys care nothing for the general civil defense. We tax payers know that we are on our own when the next real war starts. But you guys could at least act like you give a damn about the civilians.
You guys have to restructure and get ready ASAP bc war with China is just around the corner.
The military sucks enough wealth out of America, so why did America screw this Cv thing up so badly? The cost of one or two aircraft carriers could have covered the cost of the medical costs of a lot of this pandemic.
