Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen warned China of “serious consequences” if it helps Russia evade U.S. sanctions, calling for even tighter economic restrictions on Moscow as the Ukraine war nears its one year mark.
“We have made clear that providing material support to Russia or assistance with any kind of systemic sanctions evasion would be a very serious concern for us,” Yellen said at the Group of 20 meeting in India on Thursday. “We will certainly continue to make clear to the Chinese government and the companies and banks in their jurisdiction about what the rules are regarding our sanctions and the serious consequences they would face for violating them.”

What is Yellen going to do, stop buying ramen noodles?
Maybe pull one of Puppet Emperor Xiden’s strings when they aren’t looking?
She’s going to draw a red line then crap her pants.
Yada,yada yada! go figure
What she gonna do send them a nude selfie? 😵
Yellen be yelling but China too far away to hear.
“HAHAHA yeah right. China could care less.”
Yep, China has us right where they want us, and now they’re probably going to do just what we’ve scolded them about, just to spite us. And then let’s see what happens...maybe we’ll shutdown our Walmarts, Targets, most of Amazon, and our military production lines (since they now heavily rely on China for raw materials and piece parts). That will sure TEACH CHINA A LESSON, LOL.
Yellen? Since when did our Treasury Secretary start handling our international affairs?
We will shoot down another weather balloon, so that that, China!
What’s she going to do....order all chop sticks to be recalled? She has no authority.

6 weapons packages in 2 years under Biden as of Sep
The Biden administration announced on Sept. 2 that it had approved its sixth weapons package for Taiwan — a $1.1 billion sale that includes 60 Harpoon coastal antiship missiles. U.S. officials are also discussing how to streamline the sale-and-delivery process.
Another $180 million in Dec

This cabinet looks like the Star Wars bar scene.
You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
What “serious consequences” could the Biden regime apply to the Chinese Communist Party that could have any significant bearing on relations between Russia and China?
Dollar sanctions would be meaningless, as the Russians and Chinese deal in their own exchange mediums separate from the dollar. Denial of seaports or shipping lanes is also not much of a deterrent, as the support could be delivered by surface transport or air, as China has a contiguous border with Russia some 2,500 miles long.
The Biden regime is powerless here.
A terrible farce has Aunt Sam become.
The Uncle is dead.
Newsome/Adams 2024!
They have every right to help them and will. Our threats are harming US.
Do you idiots really want the P0ta4t0 to be a wartime pResident?

CNN told us to vote for Newsom. He’s so pretty!
