Politico: Lawmakers say they were in the dark on U.S. troop deployment to Taiwan
Two lawmakers on national security committees — one a House Democrat, the other a Senate Republican — said Thursday they were unaware of a U.S. troop deployment in Taiwan where forces are reportedly helping train the island nation’s military.
The acknowledgments from Rep. Ami Bera (D-Calif.) and Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), made during POLITICO’s inaugural Defense Forum, came hours after The Wall Street Journal reported that a U.S. special-operations unit and a contingent of Marines have been operating in Taiwan for at least a year.
Asked whether he was informed by Pentagon officials about the U.S. troop presence, Bera said, “not particularly this deployment.”

"I’ve been on Senate Armed Services for six and a half years, and I can’t recall a single briefing. Obviously, anything that was in a classified setting I couldn’t share. But in general terms, no specific briefing on this." He then added that he'd like to see even more troops deploy."
So was it mentioned in a classified setting?{ If it was would he admit it or did he forget.
I'm certain Joe Biden wasn't aware either. He's not aware when he's wearing Depends or ordinary underwear.
Haha just look up who these lawmakers are, who wants to end this, to see which are payed by the Chinese. This was easier than i thought
So all these consulting companies that consulted the west into the abyss...
They get away with it?
Trillions stolen
They get away because their names are Goldman Sachs and Mc Kinsey and Bain?
Cool
This erosion of the west is now ushering in communism and mass murder
And they get away
Not even prison time for their crimes and corruption?
Your choice...
You want to be ruled like cattle, me thinks
Well, they encouraged the Pentagon to ignore Trump, so what comes around goes around, I guess. Dumb shits now bitching about the monster they created.
