It continues to be outrageous that the Trump Adm &

NEW: I gained some insight into the Trump/DOGE plans for the State Department. They’ve even asked the Pentagon to rank embassies. www.politico.com/news/2025/02...

It is long past time for the US to impose sanctions on Chinese & Hong Kong officials for repression in Hong Kong.
