Welcome back. The relationship between the United States and china has been severely tested during president biden s term in office. But since may last year, the Us National Security adviser Jake Sullivan has developed something of a connection with wang yi, the senior Foreign Policy official in beijing who answers directly to xi jinping. They met four times in the last year, a channel of communication that has served as something of a Shock Absorber when tensions arise over taiwan, ukraine, the south china sea. Today, sullivan arrived in beijing to continue that conversation, with some suggestion that the two president s might be laying the ground for another meeting Beforejoe Biden Leaves office.

Smoke pushed back into the bay area. Now the latest on a Traffic Alert on 880. Yeah, its a couple of rs tangled up here and traffic is still slow. They had all lanes blocked though northbound 880 right at da toe that. The good news is theyve opened upmost of them. They are though keeping at least one or two of these slow lanes the right lanes closed until they completely clear everything off the roadway. Looks like there may be some debris in the road as well. So caltrans crews are also on scene. So a bit of a slow ride working your way along 880 for the early start to your ride. If you are headed there, just a headsup. Expect the brake lights out of fremont and gets a little bit better as you go to more in the union city area. If you are headed towards 680 or 238 you can use that, those are free flowing both directions. Westbound 580, a busy ride already out of the Altamont Pass. Were seeing our slowest spot right around Mountain House. From 2035 and it stays slow to north flynn. Anne
