good afternoon, charles. here on the hill, there s plenty of bipartisan support for the speaker of the house as china really starts to ratchet up its aggression to the u.s. and the fact that the speaker was bold enough to make this trip. speaker pelosi is spending the night in taipei tonight after getting a rock star welcome by a sea of people there shortly after she released a statement that attempts to send a message to china that this trip is not a provocation. that is not how china is reading it at all. chinese media has announced that they will start a series of military operations including live fire exercises around taiwan and flying across the median line. now, many republicans are lauding the speaker s trip, which others have taken in the past. they want the white house, specifically the president, to be firm with china. well past time to do this for the united states, to make clear that we will support taiwan if the chinese communists go for the jugular. if they
and taiwan in high alert with four american. china set to respond with live fire military drills surrounding taiwan new video showing chinese tanks rolling on its coastline. beijing piling on with the threats and sing america will pay. we will respond and a response will be strong and forceful. nancy pelosi not backing away from this face-off with tran about the white house is refusing to take a firm stance of the trip. nothing has changed about our one china policy. the speaker has a right to travel. she is the speaker of the house. she is a member of the congress. members of congress of both parties have traveled to taiwan even just this year. it s an independent branch of government. we gave her advice and counsel in context and information obviously as is typical we are helping with their transformation. but this is a decision that only she can make and we support and respect that decision. republicans are calling out that the white house are showing weakness and

actually lives in iran, which creates a whole other complication into this so people of question his credibility in terms of coming to the top of the heat or does this mean that now are going to be standing, right? and were going to a confluence of these eight well is this you sleuths just to distract from a horrible series of new because we are hearing that the cia had eyeballs in them for months and months. and you know they had developed basically a personality profile of what it was doing and when he was doing it. they knew where he was, they built a model of the place he was staying in. so the strike comes at a curious time. katie brings us the botched withdrawal was obvious one year
the federal reserve deliberately trying to harm you. if you re not feeling it now you will feel it real soon. in the meantime sit down and relax because the five starts right now. hello, everyone, i m jesse watters along with kennedy, katie pathologic, and shaking his head is great. 5:00 in new york city and this is the five. nancy pelosi sending off a new wave of fury threats after touching down in taiwan. page and warning the trip could have serious consequences. nancy pelosi getting a escort from taiwan s airports were flying in earlier today the u.s.
