Legendary Wumao will be given financial sanctuary and a copy of Xi Jinping Thoughts during these tumultuous times.

“They’re making so much money off their investments, their factories and their engagement there now that they lobby here for free on China’s behalf,” Florida senator Marco Rubio said this month of US businesses and individuals operating in China.

I know right, money has that effect on people sometimes. Maybe you should make some instead of being so heavily in debt?

“I don’t think the Americans are going to sit it out, but they’re probably going to do whatever they can to stay in the background and out of the limelight,” said Francis Bassolino, managing partner at Alaris Consultancy in Shanghai.

That's weasel word for they don't want the U.S. government to mess with their businesses in China.

Seifi Ghasemi, chief executive of Air Products & Chemicals, told Wall Street in February that “the political situation” was not affecting its operations or Chinese customers’ acceptance of its products. Colgate-Palmolive in February told analysts that its market share growth in China was “a beautiful story”, while Illinois Tool Works said last year its China revenue exceeded $1bn for the first time. “We feel very good about China,” it said.

Effing Wumaos like Jeffrey Sachs will be the first to be sent to the frontline in Anchorage at the outbreak of hostilities. In fact he could share a trench with @9dashline.

All of the US vassals ban TikTok. No point to treat these countries as sovereign nations.

I tell you Filipinos are Proud when they become servants in the west. They are also very proud to be auxiliaries in colonial and imperialist wars. Nothing of value is lost.

Entertainment apps don't belong on work devices anyways, so this is pure political theater. The real things to watch are the RESTRICT Act and the law for total national ban of TikTok, not just on government work devices.

A family relative may or may not work at U.S. Federal gov't..... would never in a million years install a social media app on a U.S. gov't phone or laptop. US gov't devices have very strict policies, so nobody really puts personal stuff on it.

So this ban is purely symbolic and has no real impact.
