This is what we all should be fighting.

DEM activists/via recent actions, R demanding we follow their rule of thought! using destruction & violence fueled by extreme hatred/unfortunately in Communist socialistic China-corruption is-a way of life! u even have 2 bribe nurses to care 4 the sick-their health care 4 all.

Wow! No freedom of speech! Sounds like the way white Republicans are treated in the US.

More trumped up charges just because Xi stuffed up with Covid.

FreedomOfSpeech doesn’t exist in China since the founding of Communist China.

Wall Street journal is a fake media. Ren Zhiqiang was charged of corruption, not criticism to Xi jingping.

Why don't you tell the truth? He embezzled 40 million yuan.

If the Liberals have it their way, this would be a domestic policy they embrace. They already label us as subhuman nazis for having differing opinions.

China preassures everything which can decrease its reputation. This is what the comunists want to substitute the USA as first power country in the world. China must be fired out of the WTO and PAY THE GLOBAL BILL of the Chinese Virus 19.

Let’s keep trading with them...they’re such wonderful Government so wonderful DEMOCRAPS using same methods KAG

ni hao Trump2020 USA

Chinese government's propaganda said they are powerful than Russia now. Nowadays, they start claiming Vladivostok, Blagoveshchensk and Khabarovsk are parts of China.

Strike another win for KingJames nba and their CCP brothers. Nothing like sticking up for a country who doesn't believe in freespeech or humanrights , MAGA boycottNBA FreeHongKong

Because the CCP is a developing nation, developing into the 4th Reich. Wake Up!

Why does it matter if criminals criticize the government? They can't always be in cahoots with the government like in the U.K. and the U.S.

For God sake - call it out USA for what it is

How long before Bill Bar starts doing that to in America?

Crazy CCP, this Is what they do to quell opposition.

For corruption charges on paper.

I can imagine if the US was to sentence Trump critics

i Cant breathe.

thats old, china has been putting people behind bars for decades

Hmm...I wonder what China would do with the 'peaceful,' right-deprived BLM and Antifa protesters in the 2 dozen-plus Democrat-run cities in this unfair country they live in? 🤔 BlackLivesMatter Antifa

Not a big deal . Same is happening in india

The current president plan to use Barr to put all those who protest and disagree behind bar. He is riding the tiger right now. Once he fall though shall we put him and Barr, behind bar with to wall of Stone?

😫

Soon to be those who criticize dRumpf/Barrrrrrr/mCcONNELL/etc.

包衣的儿子,“掏光”人民的币,“养肥”自己,还他妈打着人民的名义。

He was sentenced for corruption, bribery and abuse of power, not for criticizing anyone.

China Created Covid

China, the evil empire that democrats, media, athletes, hollywood and rinos defend.

CyrusToulabi Does anyone here think 'Hey, let's be more like China!'

Why don't you tell the Americans that he embezzled 49.74 million yuan?

He has commited corruption, stealing tens of millions of dollars.

Pooh Bear Xi - concentration camps for Uyghurs, destruction of Tibetan culture, rouge trading country, supporter of despots, illegal South China Sea occupation.... aaannndddd Biden’s best buddy...! Intolerance is in the DNA of the authoritarian left...

Great country

I’m sure all the Democrats remember when Trump did that... Oh yeah no that wasn’t a republican president. That was Woodrow Wilson a Democrat.

A hero who is silenced by CCP. CCPVirus

Extreme level of autocracy.

...coming to TrumpsAmerica 2021. 😒

Was he sentenced FOR speaking out? If not, very misleading headline

😭😭😭😭

Explainer: Why is Taiwan-China tension rising and what are the risks?China sent numerous aircraft close to Taiwan during two days of drills from Friday, causing the island's air force to scramble, as Beijing expressed anger at the visit of a senior U.S. official to Taipei. My guess is because their people are starting to wake up and they don't like how they are being treated.. just my guess Taiwan is part of China. For the sake of peace, don’t push mainland China and Taiwan China to get involved into the second Chinese civil war. Don’t play Taiwan as a disposable puppet. Because China threats to invade Taiwan and we Taiwanese will protect our way of livings at all costs.

TikTok tussle shows the uneven economic ‘decoupling’ that has accelerated between U.S. and ChinaTrump is still angry at Xi Jingping because he won't forgive Trump's loans w/the Bank of China, another failed attempt at quid pro quo by Trump. IT'S TIME WE ALL COME TO THE REALIZATION that Trump's only interest is his re-election & that Trump couldn't care less about anything or anyone else. 'TRUMP WILL SAY & DO ANYTHING' he thinks will secure his re-election, even endangering other people's lives. Trump's no leader.
