=== Biden's Strategic Incoherence (03:45) ===

[00:00:03]  Hello everybody and thank you for tuning in to the weekly report.
[00:00:07]  Will Biden start nuclear war with China over Taiwan?
[00:00:12]  President Biden's town hall meeting this past week was a disaster.
[00:00:18]  From his bizarre poses to the incoherent answers, it seemed to confirm America's worst fears about a president we are told was elected by the most voters ever.
[00:00:31]  Though he didn't bother campaigning, we are to believe he somehow motivated the most voters in history to pull the lever in his favor or mail in a ballot in his favor or something.
[00:00:47]  After the town hall, the Wall Street Journal was early among mainstream media publications to observe that the Emperor has no clothes.
[00:00:57]  In an editorial titled, The Confusing Mr. Biden, the paper wrote, even with a friendly audience and softball questions, Mr. Biden's performance revealed why so many Americans are losing confidence in his presidency.
[00:01:15]  The journal focused on one of the most shocking and disturbing revelations from the carefully crafted event.
[00:01:22]  Asked by CNN's Anderson Cooper if the United States would come to the defense of Taiwan should it come under attack by the Chinese mainland.
[00:01:33]  He replied, yes, we have a commitment to do that.
[00:01:38]  Anderson threw him another softball in hopes he might correct this dangerous misstatement.
[00:01:44]  But Biden was not nimble enough to see the scaff.
[00:01:47]  He doubled down.
[00:01:49]  It was left to the chemical alley of this administration, White House spokesperson Jen Saki, to clarify that when the president signaled a major shift in U.S. policy, a shift that would lead to nuclear war with China, he was just kidding or something.
[00:02:12]  Said Saki the next day, well, there has been no shift.
[00:02:16]  The president was not announcing any change in our policy, nor has he made a decision to change our policy.
[00:02:24]  There is no change in our policy.
[00:02:28]  In other words, pay no attention to the man who pretends to be the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the United States.
[00:02:37]  But this is not George W. Bush, who was elected in 2000 with zero experience in foreign policy.
[00:02:44]  This is not Trump who campaigned on a policy of peace while hiring John Bolton to carry out that policy.
[00:02:53]  No, Biden has twice been chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
[00:02:58]  Foreign policy has always been considered his one area of competence.
[00:03:04]  Surely the Biden of even the Obama administration would have understood the potentially catastrophic implications of his statement.
[00:03:16]  Strategic ambiguity has been U.S. policy toward Taiwan and China for decades.
[00:03:22]  But the new Biden-China policy could be renamed strategic incoherence.
[00:03:28]  The policy of strategic ambiguity is foolish enough.
[00:03:32]  Who cares who rules Taiwan?
[00:03:35]  But advancing the idea that the United States is willing to launch a nuclear war with China over who governs Taiwan is a whole lot other level of American last foolishness.

=== Milley's Nuclear Silence (00:38) ===

[00:03:49]  Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Milley, was heralded as a hero for betraying his commander-in-chief, Trump, by seeking to restrict Trump's access to the U.S. nuclear arsenal.
[00:04:04]  Milley claimed that Trump was so unsound of mind that he could not be trusted with the nuclear football.
[00:04:11]  Yet, when actual unsoundness is there for everyone else to see, Milley and the other woke generals are silent as the grave.
[00:04:24]  These are dangerous times in which we live.
