TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — The military aircraft likely carrying the delegation led by U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was spotted possibly bypassing the South China Sea, where China is reportedly ratcheting up military activity ahead of her potential visit to Taiwan.
Pelosi is expected to land at Taipei Songshan Airport in the country's capital city at 10:20 Tuesday night (Aug. 2), media reported.
In addition to the military incursions into Taiwan's air defense identification zone (ADIZ) on a nearly daily basis this year, two Chinese warships – a missile destroyer and guided-missile frigate – were also tracked in international waters off the coast of Lanyu Island in eastern Taiwan early Tuesday morning (Aug. 2).
The visit by Pelosi to Taiwan drew worldwide attention.
The global flight tracking service, Flightradar24, on Tuesday once recorded up to 300,000 visitors on the page that tracks SPAR19 at the same time, in order to know the whereabouts of Pelosi's plane.
The data shows the plane departed at 3:42 p.m. local time, with the destination shown as "N/A" at the time of publication.
The map also displayed the aircraft was likely to avoid flying over the South China Sea, which involves conflicting islands and maritime claims in the region by several sovereign states, including China, which is reportedly ratcheting up military activity before the mooted visit.
There was another rumor that Pelosi might have taken another plane, the Boeing C-40 Clipper, which is coded SPAR20 on Flightradar24. The plane departed from Tokyo on Tuesday morning and arrived in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, at noon.
This has got to be the most elaborate political campaign stunt ever.
Would the deep state sacrifice her?
Yep, and now I'll be disappointed if we don't have a spectacular ending and climax. My view, an 82 year-old lifelong hack and political lame duck should NOT be representing our future or American interest in general. She'll be out in a few months, this is a diversion and waste.
It’s as if the desiccated, Botox-ridden old hag thinks she is going to live until the age of 92 or something. And that won’t even be enough.
She’s more likely representing herself ... tying down those loose income streams so when she’s gone, she can afford her own alcohol bill (and hubby Paul’s ... DUI with injury to others charge coming down the pike).
No doubt, but let her do it on her own dime after she's ousted.
It is devastating that the USA has fallen this far that Nanc can travel to Asia just to avoid Pablo’s court hearing. The USa is sending this:

Unfortunately, she considers herself so important and is so entitled, she doesn’t do ANYTHING on her own dime.
I never thought I’d want anyone to disappear totally from public view/speech as much as HRC, but Pelousy has hit that same level with me.
First time I have ever had a notice to wait in a queue to access Flightradar24...

All this shizzle because Nan wants a farewell tour? Ugh.
NOOOOO! Pelosi needs to tell the pilot of Broom One to buzz the Chinese warships!!
“Would the deep state sacrifice her?”
We’re not that lucky.
Biden would welcome a Great Patriotic War to boost his numbers, so yes, she is expendable.
Have they shot her down yet?
They would if she was near the end of her usefulness.
Yes, I wonder, is this a farewell tour for her?
Because if the GOP takes back the House, she will not be Speaker any longer, and not be in such a powerful position. Even if the Dems. somehow kept control, there is talk that she would retire from leadership roles.
So why is a “lame duck” type leader traveling like this????
There actually isn’t Radar/adsb coverage over the oceans....or land outside the USA and Europe. These apps post estimated positions in those areas.
No friend of that crook Pelosi but the nerve of China to dictate to us, IN PUBLIC, who our elected officials can visit.
China has become this nations biggest threat to our peace and safety...the trade imbalance has to be adjusted.
