BEIJING — China sent warships and dozens of fighter jets toward Taiwan on Saturday, the Taiwanese government said, in retaliation for a meeting between the U.S. House of Representatives speaker and the president of the self-ruled island democracy claimed by Beijing as part of its territory.

Unfortunately for us, SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL, China has seen weakness in the current administration and due to our involvement in providing material support to Ukraine, China's President Xi is pushing the line drawn in the sand regarding Taiwan... If we fail to support Taiwan and lose, China will become the primary Power on planet Earth... IMHO...
