Hello everybody and thank you for tuning in to the Liberty Report with us today. Daniel Mick Adams, our co-host.

Daniel, good to see you today.

Good morning, Dr. Paul. Happy Wednesday.

Good.

Good.

We're going to talk about China. That's a favorite topic. We have a lot of people I know on our viewership that very interesting and subject for good reason.

It's a big deal and there's lots of historic things happening.

I see this whole thing as a big shift in world politics.

And unfortunately in some ways it means that the United States is going downhill and there are some other countries that are found to be less favorable especially in this country, but I have very few of them.

People, they're going uphill and that means the conflict seems to be smoldering and getting worse between the United States and China.

But unfortunately, we see it is that the activity that we have is a little more aggressive than it has to be.

Our side in the last several years, I wouldn't give them a high grade for diplomacy with China.

But anyway, we had a couple of things happening. They were unhappy with the meeting in Taiwan and also the balloon incident.

So the meeting that was scheduled I guess pretty much with Blanken.

Oh, we canceled it.

Yeah, Bob said, you guys are a bunch of them.

You know, they don't say those words, but that's what they're saying.

We don't want to put up with you little guys like this.

So what happens after a while when the dust settles and they hide the balloon and they make sure the balloon team come down in the United States because who knows it could have been something complex like a balloon of pipelines.

Who up the pipelines?

Who's balloon was that really?

Anyway, this is something that is ongoing so they've canceled that trip.
