CHINESE DICTATOR FUKU AND HIS RENT BOY RED JOE, CHINA'S WORN OUT S6666LUTBOY (FUKU IS THE ONE WITH THE RED TIE - RENT BOY JOE IS THE ONE GIVING FUKU A HANDJOB).
PARASITE GAMER LAWYER OR JUST A TRAITOR WHO SHOULD BE TRIED AND EXECUTED?
Instead, the Biden family name has really stood for only two things: buffoonery and corruption. For fifty years, Joe Biden has managed to hold onto some slice of power in D.C. as a senator, vice president, and Oval Office stooge not because he is renowned for his erudition or virtue but rather because his doltish behavior and venal character make him ideal for others to control. Perhaps no other Washington relic has accomplished so little for the American people over such a prolonged government career or managed to harness those defects for lucrative advancement more successfully than China Joe.

THE BIDEN KLEPTOCRACY
American people deserve to know what China was up to with Joe Biden, especially when Beijing had already shelled out millions of dollars to Biden family members — including millions in set-asides for “the big guy.” What else is on that infamous Hunter Biden laptop? The conflicted Biden Justice Department cannot be trusted to engage in any meaningful oversight on this issue. We need a special counsel now.

Marc Andreessen: AI ‘Doomers’ Are Misguided, China Is the Real Threat
In a recent essay, renowned venture capitalist Marc Andreessen has dismissed the widespread fear of artificial intelligence as a potential existential threat to humanity, instead pointing to China’s rapid AI development as the real concern.
CNBC reports that Marc Andreessen, a renowned venture capitalist, recently published a comprehensive essay in which he dispelled the widespread belief that artificial intelligence poses an existential threat to humanity, which he calls a “wall of fear-mongering and doomerism,” and instead emphasized China’s explosive AI development as the real cause for concern.
A partner at Andreessen Horowitz, Andreessen is well-known for his audacious claim that “software is eating the world.” In his most recent letter, he applies this viewpoint to AI, advising creators to “stop worrying and build, build, build.”
Andreessen stated that AI isn’t sentient, despite the fact that its ability to mimic human language can understandably fool some into believing otherwise. “AI doesn’t want, it doesn’t have goals, it doesn’t want to kill you, because it’s not alive. And AI is a machine – is not going to come alive any more than your toaster will.”
Andreessen’s remarks come in response to an increasing number of tech industry leaders who have voiced their concerns regarding the potential risks posed by AI. He suggests that these leaders are motivated by financial interests, as they “stand to make more money if regulatory barriers are erected that form a cartel of government-blessed AI vendors protected from new startup and open source competition.”
The venture capitalist complains that attention is being diverted from the current harms that some algorithms can cause in real life by focusing on potential future threats posed by AI. However, Andreessen paints a more upbeat picture of AI’s potential rather than acknowledging these known risks.
AI could be “a way to make everything we care about better,” he wrote. “Anything that people do with their natural intelligence today can be done much better with AI. And we will be able to take on new challenges that have been impossible to tackle without AI, from curing all diseases to achieving interstellar travel.”
Andreessen argues that AI companies and startups should be allowed to develop AI as quickly and aggressively as they can, calling for a return to the “move fast and break things” mentality of the tech industry. He also suggests using AI itself to shield people from bias and negative effects.
Andreessen names China as the real threat due to its rapid advancement of AI and worrisome authoritarian applications. He puts forth a vigorous plan for the advancement of AI that involves major tech firms, startups, the private sector, the scientific community, and governments.
“We should drive AI into our economy and society as fast and hard as we possibly can,” Andreessen wrote, emphasizing the need to counter China’s AI influence.
Andreessen has a positive outlook, but his predictions haven’t always come true. Shortly before the industry started to decline, his company launched a $2.2 billion crypto fund. During the pandemic, one of its key investments was in the social audio startup Clubhouse, which has since been forced to lay off half of its staff.
In conclusion, Andreessen expressed his unwavering support for those working on AI, stating, “They are heroes, every one. My firm and I are thrilled to back as many of them as we can, and we will stand alongside them and their work 100%.”

Saudi Energy Minister Post-Blinken Visit: I’m ‘Ignoring’ U.S. Concerns About China Ties
Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman told reporters on Sunday that he “ignore[s]” concerns about growing friendship between Riyadh and Beijing, much of it coming from the United States, because too much “opportunity” exists for growth between the two countries.
The energy minister was discussing China-Saudi ties at the Arab-China Business Conference in Riyadh on Sunday, an event the Saudi government touted as bringing together thousands of political and business elites and resulting in “$10 billion in investment agreements,” most of them involving Saudi projects. The conference follows a visit by genocidal Chinese dictator Xi Jinping to the country in December, which culminated in the signing of deals worth nearly $30 billion, according to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).
The conference occurred shortly after American Secretary of State Antony Blinken departed the Saudi city of Jeddah after meetings with high-level officials, including Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Prior to his arrival, Reuters described addressing the growing relationship between the Saudi government and communist China as “probably the most important element of Blinken’s visit,” but neither Washington nor Riyadh mentioned China in its statements on the visit.
Growing business and political ties between Saudi Arabia and China appear to be developing at the expense of the longstanding Saudi alliance with the United States. Under left-wing President Joe Biden, who vowed as a candidate to turn the country into an international “pariah” while running for president in 2020, America has lost significant influence with the Saudi government, prompting the Saudis to take multiple measures in the past year that damage American interests, including pushing for multiple oil production cuts within the oil cartel OPEC+ and restoring diplomatic ties with state sponsor of terrorism, Iran. Notably, the groundbreaking Iran-Saudi deal was brokered in Beijing.
The Saudi government has disregarded its role as the custodian of the holiest sites in Islam, and thus a leader in the Islamic world, in its negotiations with China. China is currently engaging in a genocide of indigenous Muslim communities in occupied East Turkistan, forcing millions into concentration camps and engaging in forced sterilization, gang rape, and slavery. Riyadh has not only failed to condemn the genocide, but actively supports it as an “anti-terrorism” operation.
Saudi Arabia warmly welcomed one of the world’s most anti-American leaders, Venezuelan socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro, the day before it welcomed Blinken.
Prince Abdulaziz told reporters during the conference on Sunday that the Saudi government has no interest in “competing” with communist China.
“Oil demand in China is still growing so of course we have to capture some of that demand,” Reuters quoted the prince as saying. “Instead of competing with China, collaborate with China.”
On Western concerns regarding Saudi Arabia’s growing role in China’s diplomatic orbit – and its granting of increasing geopolitcal influence in the Middle East to the Communist Party – Prince Abdulaziz said he simply disregards them.
“I actually ignore it because … as a business person .. now you will go where opportunity comes your way,” the energy minister said, according to Reuters. “We don’t have to be facing any choice which has to do with (saying) either with us or with the others.”
The regional outlet Arab News reported the energy minister as describing parallels between the future goals of both China and Saudi Arabia, in particular the potential “synergy” between the Saudi Vision 2030 program – a holistic plan to diversify the Saudi economy away from oil and modernize its culture – and the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), a global debt-trap plan that claims to intend to build and renovate the world’s transportation infrastructure. China granted Saudi Arabia a role in the BRI – as a predator country offering to build prohibitively expensive projects in poor countries, not as a target nation – during Xi’s trip to the country in December.
“We do not have to be in a place where we set ourselves in competition with China. We have to set ourselves in a place where we collaborate with China,” the outlet quoted him as saying. “There are so many things that we want to do with them (China), but equally, they want to do with us. There is a great deal of synergies between the two countries.”
The Chinese Global Times newspaper, a government publication, described several of the deals brokered at this weekend’s conference as BRI agreeements.
“The agenda includes sessions and discussions that range from investment in the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), clean energy cooperation and the oil and gas supply chain, to tourism and entertainment sectors as well as financing and investment opportunities in the capital markets,” the Global Times relayed. “Under the BRI framework, the two sides have had robust cooperation, which has boosted their development and rejuvenation, according to China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”
Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan bin Abdullah similarly touted long-term cooperation between the Islamist theocracy and the communist Asian state in his opening remarks for the business conference on Sunday.
“The conference is an opportunity to strengthen and consolidate the historical Arab-Chinese friendship, build a common future that takes us on a new era that will benefit peoples and maintain peace and development in the world,” the foreign minister said.
The SPA noted in its coverage of his speech that China is both Saudi Arabia’s largest trade partner and that of the other Arab states.
“The minister further stated that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia makes up 25% of the total volume of trade exchange between China and Arab countries, which reached $106.1 billion in 2022, a 30% increase over 2021,” the SPA added.
Joe Biden Helps Expand Semiconductor Manufacturing — in China
President Joe Biden is greenlighting South Korean and Taiwanese semiconductor manufacturers to continue expanding their operations in China thanks to exemptions rewarded to various companies by the administration.
Late last year, the Biden administration issued prohibitions on semiconductor chip exports to China, among other tech exports. The rules were designed to cut off exports of chips to China, which the communist country is reliant on, by United States companies and multinational corporations that use U.S. technology.
One-year exemptions, though, were given to some manufacturers — including Samsung, Taiwan Semiconductor, and SK Hynix — which allowed them to continue expanding semiconductor operations throughout China.
On Monday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Biden officials have confirmed to industry insiders that those exemptions, set to expire in a few months, will be extended so as to ensure that semiconductor manufacturers can keep growing chip production in China.
The Journal reported:
Those exemptions were set to expire in October. Estevez told a meeting of the Semiconductor Industry Association, a trade group, that the exemptions would be renewed for the foreseeable future, according to the attendees. The Commerce Department declined to comment. [Emphasis added]
…
The move to extend the exemptions, rather than winding them down, amounts to a recognition by U.S. authorities that efforts to isolate China from high-tech goods are more difficult than anticipated in a highly integrated global industry, according to industry executives. It also comes as some foreign businesses bristle at Washington’s expanding interference in their operations.
[Emphasis added]
The extension of rule exemptions for some multinational corporations comes as Biden, as well as his top agency officials, has made clear that his administration is not interested in decoupling from China.
“We’re not looking to decouple from China, we’re looking to de-risk and diversify our relationship with China,” Biden said last month at the G7 Summit. “That means taking steps to diversify our supply chains, and we’re not — so we’re not dependent on any one country for necessary product.”
Likewise, in April, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said the U.S. decoupling from China would be “disastrous” and “destabilizing” for the world.
“As I’ve said, the United States will assert ourselves when our vital interests are at stake,” Yellen said. “But we do not seek to ‘decouple’ our economy from China’s. A full separation of our economies would be disastrous for both countries.”
