China will have to get in line behind Russia, Israel, and pretty much everyone else with the money.

China saw everyone else do it over the last decade, they thought they would throw their hat in the ring too?

“I know you are but what am I” stopped being persuasive around age 8.

As opposed to Israel throwing hundreds of millions of dollars to do the same?

But it does! If we stop looking even for a second, we might realize things! /s ?

This is the best summary I could come up with:


US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the US has seen evidence of Chinese attempts to “influence and arguably interfere” with the upcoming US elections, despite an earlier commitment from leader Xi Jinping not to do so.

Blinken said he repeated a message President Joe Biden gave to Xi during their summit in San Francisco last November not to interfere in the 2024 US presidential elections.

“We have seen, generally speaking, evidence of attempts to influence and arguably interfere, and we want to make sure that that’s cut off as quickly as possible,” Blinken said when asked whether China was violating Xi’s commitment to Biden so far.

“We are (now) focused on areas where we’re working to cooperate, but also we’re being very forthright about our differences and that’s important if we’re going to avoid the competition we’re in turning into conflict,” Blinken told CNN.

When asked about resolving the conflict in Gaza, Blinken said it was on Hamas to decide if they are going to allow a ceasefire to go forward or not, after the militant group refused to agree to multiple possible deals.

Blinken cited the sustained US efforts to work towards normalizing relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia as part of a potentially reach a historic agreement to bring the Israel-Hamas war to an end.


The original article contains 1,323 words, the summary contains 216 words. Saved 84%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

I’m not saying this claim is true or that it isn’t true. I will say, however, that Blinken has no credibility. He flushed all that away when he became an active, enthusiastic and vital part of the genocide machine. Don’t talk to me about what he says. Again, his words hold no value and I am aware of how dangerous it is that we cannot take such high ranking officials seriously anymore. At this point, he’s a war criminal and deserves to be tried for that.

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
