Biden Administration Issues Warning To American Firms About Doing Business In Hong Kong

 

CNN: Washington is warning American firms about doing business in Hong Kong 

Hong Kong (CNN Business)The US government is preparing to warn American companies about the risks of doing business in Hong Kong. 

US President Joe Biden on Thursday confirmed reports in various media outlets this week that his administration plans to soon issue an advisory to companies that will caution them of a "deteriorating" situation in the Chinese territory. 

"The situation in Hong Kong is deteriorating, and the Chinese government is not keeping its commitment that it made, how it would deal with Hong Kong," Biden told reporters at the White House on Thursday, referencing Beijing's pledge to maintain the city's semi-autonomous status for 50 years after its 1997 handover from Britain. 

Biden described the announcement as "more of an advisory as to what may happen with Hong Kong," without divulging more details, and experts believe it won't go much beyond flagging the rising risks.

Johnson and Johnson baby powder recalled because it causes cancer

Johnson and Johnson sunscreen lotions just recalled because they contained benzene and can cause cancer

BUT go right ahead and inject the highly experimental Johnson and Johnson vaccine. WHAT COULD GO WRONG?

Everything.
They're legally protected in this mass experiment and the left tells you it's brave to take the shot. So go right ahead, chump.

Also.. Just so you know.. for those thousands who already suffer from side effects, there's NO medical insurance or health cover because(!) you sign off your rights when you take the experimental shot as not a single health care provider wants to cover it. GUESS WHY

Ffs wake up and hang these people

J and J recalled because
(1) class action lawsuits won
(2) proven a hazard
I use other products by J and J that are safe
Do I reject a vaccine to save my life because a product not even related to that vaccine was taken off the market?
how many cars recalled for defects?
Stop drink Coke since years ago it had an opioid in it!
Fact: just about 99.00 percent of those dying from the virus were not vaccinated.
you do your thing. I will do mine.

So on top of looking to replace bases in Afghanistan, the CIA will be looking to replace their Hong Kong base. The CIA is more adept on spying on Republican presidential candidates and Americans than they are China.

Whatever will the James Bond franchise do? There was the Idris Elba controversy. Idris sounds very English to me. He would work as James Bond. The bigger problem is locations. James Bond has been filmed in Hong Kong 3 times. What are the chances now?

Will future James Bond films be shot entirely in London? A scenario would be James Bond gets caught behind enemy lines in Tower Hamlets and has to make it back to MI6 HQ alive. Or Fort Apache the Bronx, the London edition?

Parting Shot: The CIA has become the opposition research arm of the Democrat Party. If I were Fusion GPS, I would be worried. Pay days might be numbered with the CIA honing in on their territory.

Take a bow Brennan

China has a lot of flaws. Huge flaws, but things are looking real sketchy about now.

Even with half the U.S. vaccinated, Covid-19 continues to kill people faster than guns, car crashes and influenza combined, according to a review of mortality data.

The situation has improved dramatically since January, when Covid deaths outpaced heart disease and cancer as the country’s top killer, according to a Bloomberg analysis. Still, for the month of June, coronavirus was responsible for 337 deaths a day. For comparison, the historic average deaths from gunshots, car crashes and complications from the flu add up to 306 a day.
Covid Isn't Done With U.S.

It's still killing faster than guns, car crashes and flu combined

Sources: JHU, CDC, NHTSA

Note: Flu deaths vary seasonally and from year to year, so the daily figure is derived from the average annual tally recorded from 2010 to 2020. Average daily deaths from heart disease, cancer, guns and car crashes are from 2019.

“The sad reality is that despite our progress, we’re still losing people to this virus,” Jeff Zients, the White House pandemic response coordinator, said at a press briefing last week. “Which is especially tragic given that, at this point, it is unnecessary and preventable. Virtually all Covid-19 hospitalizations and deaths in the United States are now occurring among unvaccinated individuals.”

Data for the analysis were gathered from Johns Hopkins University, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

I wish I could have schadenfreude when the real vaccine deaths and injuries are published

Does the above leftist realise that even to CDC's own data self reported vaccine deaths and injuries are spiraling out of control?

Does he realise that these are just the short term effects? For goodness sakes.. look at the data

They ask you not just to take one shot, not just two, now three and some leftist cult outlets suggest why not mix a few drugs together.

These people are insane and do not listen to actual scientists, like Nobel prize winner Dr. Mullis who explicitly warned the world of Fauci and not to use the test he (Dr Mullis) invented in this way to avoid FALSE POSITIVES

Ffs wake up you absolute moron this is not coca cola

White House press secretary Jen Psaki forcefully defended the Biden administration’s growing offensive on vaccine-related misinformation spreading on Facebook and other social media platforms.

“Our biggest concern, and frankly I think it should be your biggest concern, is the number of people who are dying around the country because they are getting misinformation that is leading them to not take a vaccine,” Psaki said during Friday's daily press briefing. “Young people, old people, kids, children … a lot of them are being impacted by misinformation.”

Psaki’s defense was in response to a question from Fox News’ Peter Doocy, who framed the Biden administration’s concern about bad actors online as “spying” on Americans’ social media usage.

“For how long has the administration been spying on people’s Facebook profiles looking for vaccine misinformation?” Doocy asked, referencing Psaki’s comments a day prior that roughly a dozen people on Facebook were responsible for the bulk of vaccine misinformation on the social network.

Psaki called the characterization “a loaded and inaccurate question.” She said the White House flagging concerning posts to platforms like Facebook is similar to outreach to news outlets when they take issue with particular coverage.

“This is publicly open information, people sharing information online, just as you are all reporting information on your news stations,” she said during a testy exchange in which the pair talked over one another at times.

Surgeon General Vivek Murthy on Thursday declared falsehoods and conspiracy theories proliferating online as an “urgent threat to public health” because of their effect on people’s willingness to get a Covid vaccine.

Murthy’s advisory set off a firestorm in some conservative-leaning circles where such misinformation has circulated and contributed to stubbornly low vaccination rates in certain regions. Top Republican lawmakers accused the Biden administration of being in cahoots with social media companies to censor speech.

Public health officials have sounded the alarm in recent weeks because the overwhelming number of people hospitalized and dying from Covid-19 now are unvaccinated. The White House decided to more aggressively respond to those who are discouraging vaccinations and create more pro-vaccine content, including spots featuring Gen Z pop star Olivia Rodrigo.

President Joe Biden took a shot at platforms including Facebook while leaving the White House on Friday afternoon.

"They’re killing people," he told reporters in response to a question about Facebook. "The only pandemic we have is among the unvaccinated, and they’re killing people.”

Facebook this week said it has taken down more than 18 million pieces of Covid-related misinformation, removed numerous accounts and promoted trustworthy information about vaccinations.

But social media companies have struggled with how much to crack down as information evolves. For instance, Facebook in May walked back a ban on posts claiming that Covid-19 originated in a lab after there was renewed debate about the theory.

The buyups accelerated thanks to the covid lockdowns.. in China they're living it up, buying property here in London from small business owners and middle class who got wiped out thanks to the lockdowns promoted by radicals in the UK.. the lockdowns cost the West trillions and your children will still pay for this leftist nutjob experiment that now also ushers in communism now that people are hopeless and poor thanks to the lockdowns and the Wuhan virus that CNN for a year lied about and then went on to celebrate the 100 year anniversary of these murderers who have killed more than 100 million people in their 100 year existence. CNN is not American don't you get it you absolute morons? They're owned by Warner media, at&,t and such mega corporations who years ago declared that their main market and main revenue stemmed from China. Their daddy is China and they celebrated the CCP while your grandma dies in an isolation ward and then on top called you racists for calling it for where it came from.
You have enemy operatives and enemy propaganda in your home country and you keep citing and watching it like mentally retarded programmed lemmings, like Fred

Ok yeah no one should do business in Hong Kong where the CCP rules

But equally I'm no longer sure about incorporating in the US with the Democrats completely out of control and out of touch with American values.. the censorship, the spying, the speech police and cancel culture, the feminazis and radical leftists, blm and antifa terrorists, whites being forced into collective guilt that eerily resembles what happened in south Africa before their current lynching, destruction and genocide.

The US of today is absolutely a nightmare. FBI and DOJ are political tools to come after your opponents. Fisa warrants are not properly signed off, it's absolutely out of control. Was for years, even during and before trump and Obama.. but this???

It's banana republic with high taxation, shitty quality of life and always being afraid of a leftist mob coming after you if you haven't fully submitted to their cult language and virtue signaling.

It's repulsive. And on top all these wars.
