also, what we have seen is directionless policy. now, at the climate summit, cop 26, i think the administration wanted to obtain china s cooperation. they are willing to give up a lot as john kerry the climate czar has said. at that biden virtual summit president biden did not raise the origins of coast. we are talking 773,000 americans who have died from this disease. he didn t raise it in the february, two hour phone calling. he probably didn t raise it in the september 90-minute phone call. he didn t raise it last week. this really have a dereliction of duty. i think the american people just have had enough of that. bret: let alone the chinese efforts military and hypersonic missiles and the rest. gordon cheang, thank you very much. up next is russia preparing to invade ukraine and where does the u.s. fit in to all of that? we ll have a live report from the pentagon.
