Travis’s followers were quick to respond to the video, one person writing, “As a little boy I felt a connection with London and France because I saw someone’s underpants.”
” It was hard to believe that she had said this in public. Embarrassing!” another wrote, while someone else replied, “You can’t make this stuff up totally amazing.”
Pelosi reached Taiwan Tuesday, in spite of China and the Biden administrations’ warnings, Breitbart News reported.
It was the first time in 25 years a U.S. official of her rank journeyed to Taiwan, the outlet continued:
The Biden administration opposed her trip out of fear it would further destabilize the U.S. relationship with China at a time when the U.S. is suffering from high prices of goods, supply-chain disruptions, and pursuing a green energy agenda, all of which the administration hopes it can work with China on as midterm elections loom.
Pelosi originally planned to travel in April, but was forced to postpone the trip after contracting the Chinese coronavirus. This is a disease that the Taiwanese government tried to notify the World Health Organization. about in December 2019 but was ignored.
…
Beijing reacted furiously to the trip and warned that there would be consequences. Hu Xijin, a Chinese propagandist threatened to shoot down the plane of her mother in a tweet. He deleted it after Twitter blocked his account.
In addition to that, Republicans encouraged her travel and said she should “not down to Biden” or let Beijing veto American officials’ travel plans.
