It mentions Tesla trying to develop a cheaper EV by 2025. Not sure how it's going to do it. Tesla's are pretty bare bones as is.The time to fight "Chinese EVs" was a decade ago, but legacy manufacturers preferred to fiddle emission data rather than face a future which was clear even then. Incumbents cannot innovate when doing so means destroying their current (successful) business model, seems to be an iron law of business.

US to deploy 5 aircraft carriers in western Pacific in show of strength to China
- Unprecedented increase in naval power to the region is intended as a signal to Washington’s allies and rivals, especially Beijing, analysts said
- Washington wants to reassure its partners that it remains committed to Indo-Pacific, despite conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East
The US is likely to deploy nearly half of its aircraft carriers in the western Pacific this year, in a signal of deterrence against the increasing military activity in the region by China and North Korea, analysts said.
Three US aircraft carriers are already operating in the western Pacific Ocean, with two more on the way. Their arrival will mark the first time that five of the 11-strong carrier contingent have operated in the region.
“It would seem that there a few reasons at stake: the first is clearly to send a strong signal to allied – of reassurance – and rival – of deterrence – powers alike in the Indo-Pacific,” Barton said.
“[It is also] to state that although US foreign policy is currently consumed by two strategic conflicts taking place outside Asia – Russian aggression in Ukraine, the situation in Gaza – the Indo-Pacific is still very much at the forefront of its strategic concerns.”
They may try to start something in the SCS or Taiwan.
South Korea and Japan let Anglo American soldiers rape their women and the Anglo’s still won’t fight China? Thats how you know these nations are fit only as vassals, never a hegemon. Interesting note, during the civil war and war against Japanese aggression, the PLA were distinguished from the Nationalists and the IJA in not raping the civilians wherever they went, and in fact helped the people and empowered victims of sexual violence.
