We are witnessing history unfold. Over the last weekend, into this week, Chinese citizens have been rising up against their government. It is extremely rare (and perilously dangerous) for people to protest in communist-run China. They have no Bill of Rights to speak of, so publicly gathering to call out their government is like signing their death certificate.
So, you need to understand that what is happening in China right now is something we haven’t seen… ever.
Protesters pushed to the brink by China’s strict COVID measures in Shanghai called for the removal of the country’s all-powerful leader and clashed with police Sunday as crowds took to the streets in several cities in an astounding challenge to the government.
Police forcibly cleared the demonstrators in China’s financial capital who called for Xi Jinping’s resignation and the end of the Chinese Communist Party’s rule — but hours later people rallied again in the same spot, and social media reports indicated protests also spread to at least seven other cities, including the capital of Beijing, and dozens of university campuses.

I’m heading home now. Just want to add how incredible this is. Never seen anything like this in the decade that I report on China. The anger seems too much to crack down on. Wonder what happens next.

Not only are Chinese citizens protesting COVID lockdowns, but they are calling for the removal of their for-life president, Xi, and an end to the Chinese Communist Party’s control over the country. This is mind-blowing. We can’t overstate how rare and unthinkable such a thing as Chinese mainland citizens protesting their government.
But that’s how badly they’ve been suffering under the CCP’s “zero COVID” lockdown measures. The corrupt government has kept the nation under lockdown since 2020. Any time there is an outbreak of COVID, millions of people are forced into their homes. Children as young as 3 are subjected to testing.
I guess it took this pandemic to finally break the back of the Chinese people, to push back on their all-controlling government.
People from all over the world are watching this. But one person is mysteriously silent.
Where is Joe Biden’s condemnation for China’s vile treatment of its citizens as they fight for freedom? Where are the errant shouts and the banging on the podium for the human rights abuses under Xi?

Will Biden officials pressure the CCP to clamp down on the protests like they urged Canadian officials to crackdown on the freedom truckers?

People are now looking to Joe Biden to see what the “president” will say about the protests. It doesn’t seem like this movement is going to go away any time soon. Chinese will strike back hard and fierce, to be sure. But that will only muster greater outrage from people all over the world.
How the Biden administration responds could destroy his presidency for good. Democrats pretend they defend human rights around the world. But this administration urged Canada to violate the human rights of the Freedom Convoy. Biden has been oddly silent over China’s numerous human rights abuses, against the Uyghur minority and others. But this story is unprecedented and demands the U.S. president’s response.
Sadly, Biden will mostly likely stay silent or side with the corrupt CCP.
