The Biden administration just ratcheted up “strategic competition” with China with a round of export controls aimed at hobbling China’s semiconductor industry. But the move could end up blowing back on the US and its allies.

The whole Biden/China relationship is mystifying to me. If he's in their pocket, why this? Is this to throw people off the fact that Biden is beholden to China, or is this just that the left always finally eats its own, or is there some other agenda here?
I think this might be setting the stage of China going into Taiwan. The white hats could be responsible for this m.
Biden is only in the pocket of parts of China. There is no monolithic unified "China", despite the image they so desperately project. All Chinese may look the same to foreigners, but the reality is that China has always been a huge mess of different ethnicities, cultures, regions, and local syndicates constantly engaged in low-key warring against each other. This is why its central government always ends up ruling as repressively as it can get away with, why the great majority of Taiwanese islanders still want to remain independant from mainland China, and why there is a deep-seated unspoken agreement among the different mainland Chinese cultures to maintain the image of a singular unified country no matter how superficial it may actually be. The reality of "one China" is very, very precarious, and the moment the facade can no longer be maintained is the moment all of the numerous bickering internal factions end up sending the mainland into a new warring states era.
...Biden's overlords are not concerned with any "side action" he has with China...
...this might be proof that he is under control of a new boss and they are forcing him to step on his "buddy's toes".....
I think China is going through their own deep state battle right now. Look at the comments Soros and others have made against Xi.
Expect to see a lot of this, where the media suddenly portrays long time allies as foes, and vice versa. Everything will be defined in the moment as it relates to being beneficial or detrimental to the cabal.
Agree. Years ago I worked in the electronics industry here. We made chips, had 3 fabs and bought our other needs from Motorola, TI and others, located in Arizona, Texas etc. USA. Then we started moving offshore. It was a big emotional ordeal, many of us hated it. There was a lot of bashing of teeth. Now, it "appears" he's bring it back???? I keep seeing this going WTF am I missing? (other than pissing off China?)
