Blinken blinked in China, got zip, foreshadowing a frightening future

When US Secretary of State Antony Blinken went to China for talks with Chinese officials, they discussed two important issues: stopping the mass importing of fentanyl that is killing 300 Americans a day on average, and the creation of a dedicated communications system between the militaries of the two nations in the event of an accidental nuclear missile launch.

Blinken blinked and there was no deal on either issue.

Worse, it was recently discovered that China has been operating a spy base in Cuba since 2019 at the very latest. The purpose of Chinese spying is part of their global effort to upgrade their intelligence-gathering capabilities, the Biden administration finally admitted, after vehemently denying it. 

Remember how they downplayed the Chinese spy balloons that flew all over the American place?

The official, who was not authorized to speak honestly in public, spoke on the condition of anonymity. He or she said the US intelligence community has been aware of China’s spying from Cuba and a larger effort to set up intelligence-gathering operations around the world for a long time.

The Biden administration has stepped up their loose-wrist efforts to thwart the Chinese push to expand its spying operations and believes it has made some progress through diplomacy and other unspecified action, according to the official, who was familiar with US intelligence on the matter.

This, of course, is propaganda that sounds plausible because we all want to believe it.

Even the Wall Street Journal confirmed the Chinese spy base and said that China and Cuba reached an agreement in principle to build an electronic eavesdropping station on the island and China would pay the communist-poor Cuba billions of dollars in the deal.

The White House claimed the report is inaccurate, but they also claimed Donald Trump had Russian prostitutes pee on him and that Joe Biden is cognitively intact and a great leader.

“I’ve seen that press report, it’s not accurate,” White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby, who has never told a lie to bolster the Democratic Party's agenda, said in an MSNBC interview Thursday. “What I can tell you is that we have been concerned since day one of this administration about China’s influence activities around the world; certainly in this hemisphere and in this region, we’re watching this very, very closely.”

And if they are watching very, very closely, they are doing nothing whatsoever to stop it.

As Scott Adams alluded to this morning on his YouTube show, Blinken blinks and Trump trumps in adversarial situations like this.

Cuban Deputy Foreign Minister Carlos Fernández de Cossío also refuted the report in a Twitter post Saturday. 

But one should never believe everything that gets tweeted on Twitter by a twit communist like de Cossío because he might be fibbing.

Tensions between the US and China have been fraught throughout Biden’s term and to deal with the situation, President Biden ate chocolate chip ice cream in a rocket-shaped cone.

The world is going to look back at this time in history and ask: "What the hell were they thinking?" And "wasn't Fang Fang kind of hot?"
