Ep 654 | What’s REALLY Going On with Taiwan & Pelosi? | Guest: Jason Buttrill

Today we're talking to Jason Buttrill, head writer and researcher for Glenn Beck as well as a former Defense Department intelligence analyst, about what's going on between China and Taiwan and what Nancy Pelosi is doing on her trip to Taiwan. Officially, Pelosi went to "defend democracy" or something like that, but since when do Democrats actually care about that? Jason points out that Taiwan is a major world supplier of computer chips, and many are speculating that Pelosi is working to secure chip manufacturing in the U.S. before China invades Taiwan. We also cover some of the history of the region and why there is so much global drama and confusion surrounding Taiwan. We also briefly cover other world events, like the recent killing of an al Qaeda leader in Afghanistan by the U.S. and the latest on the ongoing war between Ukraine and Russia. And, we discuss a recent op-ed by none other than George Soros in which he defends his pumping millions of dollars into the campaigns of left-wing politicians. --- Today's Sponsors: HealthyCell — get 20% off your first order at HealthyCell.com/ALLIE, use promo code 'ALLIE'!
