I'm glad she manned up and stuck to her guns on that.
I'm glad the WH didn't roll over either.
I suspect that PRC activity in the area was monitored closely. Entirely possible the 737 wasn't all by it's lonesome out there.

All is peaceful until someone's idiot girfriend starts mouthing off to the other side without a clue as to what she is doing or who she is fck-ing with.
I have know problem with a fight with a good reason, not for BS politics which is exactly what she is doing.

I know that President Biden told her publicly not to go.
What did he tell her privately? I don't know, and neither do you. Maybe he wanted her to go to tweak China's nose. That could be interesting.

If she tries to go to PRC uninvited, then they can shoot her down I guess.

As much as i abhor her political leanings, I’m impressed she had the stones to take the trip. Even more impressed the dems let her go. Glad to see them backing a US ally for a change. If only we could get them on board to back Israel better.

I'm sure someone knows, I didn't really follow much. But why the Speaker of the House and NOT the Sec State?

Anything that antagonizes the CCP is good with me. I'm generally not a fan of our middle east/Levant "allies", nor our general foreign policy for the last 40 years, but when it comes to the CCP, I'm unusually hawkish. That organization and their socio-cultural ethos of control/governance is nothing I want expanding into our sphere of living. I rather live with the warts of our [American] empire misgivings, than a CCP Chinese one. Thankfully their demographics are crushing their ability to project power in the next 5-10 years.
