in fact I think the article Lowy Institute’s “War and peace in Asia’s new order: Australia’s duty” could serve as fertile source-material or inspiration for a novel about a Taiwan Strait conflict — especially if you frame it as a geopolitical thriller / realist-war fiction.

The danger isn’t “implicit permission,” it’s credibility erosion. Taiwan deterrence hinges on alliance signaling, A Taiwan blockade would immediately trigger Japan’s survival-threatening threshold—Venezuela doesn’t.

The weekend press release from the Missouri-AGO states that the “Intermediate People’s Court of Wuhan” has filed a suit “declaring Missouri to be an economic and reputational menace” — naming Missouri, its Governor, its (former) AG, and U.S. Senator (the former AG) as defendants.

The solicitor handling my case hadn’t replied to any of my texts over the past couple of days, nor had she answered my calls, which left me increasingly worried. Yesterday I went to her Law firm, Her colleague said she's taken leave.

Leavitt’s answer carefully sidesteps the question she was asked.
In other words:
Tone without teeth.
Zhai—From a Chinese think-tank perspective, this is not “seeing through” Trump — it’s welcoming the erosion of alliance clarity.
This is exactly the Beijing wants normalized.

What Trump has done on Ukraine is cognitive interference, not simply “misinformation” or policy disagreement.
Would the US support Putin's aggression in Ukraine if Trump was not the president of the US?
I doubt it & certainly hope not.
Why does the US accept that Trump has turned the US Are US institutions so weak?
I ask as a US citizen.

But the article argues this deal does the opposite of “sovereign empowerment.” Rather than giving the UK independence or autonomy, it deepens British reliance — politically, economically, and technologically — on US firms and US regulatory/strategic rhythms.

US tech firms = geopolitical vectors, not just vendors. Hosting their infrastructure means hosting their politics.
Real “AI leadership” isn’t about hardware or supercomputers. It’s about autonomy — data control, regulation, alliance resilience.

Only took three months for the US to weaponize the US-UK Tech deal: "British officials on Monday confirmed the US suspended the deal last week, with one saying the Trump administration was pushing for UK concessions in areas of trade outside the tech partnership."

May I ask what 'isolation' means? Locking oneself away at home?
3/ Isolation is important but only works if people can afford it. Many people simply can’t stay home when sick. Without meaningful sick pay, asking people to isolate is unrealistic. Better financial support is essential to reduce transmission.

Without sanctions, coordination, or credible consequences, Trump’s remark is:
Not persuasive
Not strategic
Not meaningful to Beijing
From Xi’s perspective, the correct response is simply to ignore it.
In authoritarian systems, requests without penalties are noise.
