China calls report that Defence Minister Dong Jun is under probe 'shadow-chasing'​

BEIJING, Nov 27 (Reuters) - China's foreign ministry, responding to a question about a report saying the Chinese Defence Minister Dong Jun has been placed under investigation for corruption, said on Wednesday that it was "just shadow-chasing".
Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning made the reply at the regular news briefing, after the Financial Times reported that Dong was

as part of a wide-ranging anti-corruption probe that has roiled the top ranks of the People's Liberation Army.

Sounds like all this PLA purge talk is just America saving face when Dong Jun rejected a meeting with the US at the recent ASEAN summit. I didn't buy the story at first either since Dong Jun was featured on a couple of prominent videos in CCTV and its affiliate channels recently.

’s win, prompting some women, queer and trans people to respond by buying guns – and learning how to defend themselves from potential attackers.
The Guardian spoke to various Americans from marginalized groups taking firearms classes, arming themselves with stun guns and pepper spray and taking their friends shooting in an effort to protect themselves from bigots they fear will be emboldened by the president-elect’s return to power. A few left-leaning gun clubs say their numbers are increasing dramatically.

“I am thinking about carrying every day,” said Ashley Parten, 38, a Douglasville, Georgia, resident who purchased stun guns for herself, her daughter and three nieces after the election. Parten, who is Black and bisexual, is also eyeing a maroon handgun that she plans on buying after taking a firearms class.
