“These journalists are members of a free press, not propaganda cadres, and their valuable reporting informs Chinese citizens and the world,” Pompeo said in a statement. Pompeo announced on May 6 that the State Department was delaying a report to Congress assessing whether Hong Kong enjoyed sufficient autonomy from China to continue receiving special treatment from the United States.

The gradual loss of press freedom & its replacement with propaganda is a striking sign that show Hong Kong is moving to an authoritarian state, controlled by Beijing. The autonomy & freedom governed by 1 country 2 systems are slowly diminished. StandWithHongKong FreeHongKong
Pompeo: we lied, we cheated, we stole. I don't believe a single word coming out of his mouth.

Freedom of press is at perils in Hong Kong when the hongkongpoliceterrorists can blatantly attack and abuse journalists
Oh you mean your spies in HK?
The evil CCP is planning to destroy Hong Kong's one country, two systems. The destruction of Hong Kong's press freedom is one of them. When there is no freedom of the press, just like China, you can control everything and hide everything.
This not happen in the US press only, other media press are also suffered from policebrutality, Being a press is kind of dangerous job in Hong Kong. FightForFreedom StandWithHongKong
China must stop intervening Hong Kong’s local affairs ‘cause autonomy is promised in the Joint Declaration. If China insists to violate the Joint Declaration, the US should stop giving special treatment to Hong Kong and cancel the US-HK Policy Act!
Under the CCP's dictatorship and hkpolicebrutality , FreedomOfPress is no longer available in HK. May we stay united and work together, in order to end CCP tyranny, to bring freedom to more people in the world. That's the only solution
SecPompeo thanks.
That’s how they treat journalists! Only species worse than terrorists would attack Hong Kong reporters like that!
The secretary of state specialised in just warning other sovereign states, from Afghanistan to China.
Not a news for us... ACT NOW before it's too Late
Time to liberate Hong Kong from China. Hong Kong and taiwan can form a strong defence line to stop CCP to take control of the world. StandWithHongKong
Those criminals who caused chaos in Hong Kong should have stayed in the United States, not Hong Kong. The United States should send another real reporter
Journalists are assaulted & harassed by Hong Kong Police everyday, and HK government is planning to control the press licensing so that only pro-CCP journalists are allowed to report the thing that CCP wants! Please immediately execute the Hong Kong Human Right and Democracy Act!
Hongkongers remembered clearly how hkpolice CCPChina threatened all local journalists here and suppressed press freedom hongkomg
KennyT05502597 The most terrible thing is HKPoliceTerrorists even hurt journalists physically😶
US government interfered in HK affairs with some journalists and generated fake news to mislead people. It is reasonable to restrict them.
CCP are violating the freedom of press always, punishment has be done on the them😡
US journalists in HK report what happened without professional ethics and ignore the truth. US journalists have become the tool of politic.
The Brutality Police use violence to intervent the jobs of frontline journslists . Attacking and arresting journalists obviously tell what the case is!
Free the press
Really disgusting face! Literally
CCP won’t respect any journalist. In their eyes, journalists are pests that upset social order. Trust me
China is always the enemy of truth. China doesn’t want us to know the truth.

MIKE POMPEO IS A SCUM CRIMINAL !
Look forward to concrete actions from the US against China ! Journalists from the globe, including the US, have been treated brutally & violently by HKpolice for months. Tear-gas cannons, rubber bullets, pepper-spray aiming at journalists' heads are happening! hkpolicestat

When will the U.S. actually act something to stop China?
Base on his nature & CIA background SecPompeo not acting as a diplomat but act as a server of Warmongers beating on War drum to fulfil the interest of Arm dealers. He is more look like a joker than a diplomat.
When journalists remain extremely professional in their job, they are still targeted and attacked by the Hong Kong police. Only tyranny would fear and hate the truth. HK’s freedom of press is under serious attack and we hope the US could enforced HKHRDA. SOSHK FreeHK
We do not see US's respect of journalists in USA. By the way, what Pompeo is talking about?
ccp not only interference U.S. journalists, but also interference the world's journalists
Wait a second... how about we start by not having the Orange King and his followers attacking many members of the US Press right here!
Those pesky Chinese. Don’t they understand that Trump and the members of the TrumpCrimeFamily and his so-called administration are the only people who are supposed to be interfering with members of the American media
Not only US journalists but also journalists from all around the world. China’s oppression on freedom of press is infiltrating into the world. See how they twist the news reporting the pandemic and you know such oppression can bring devastating consequences
Thank you for this report. Straight forward and informative. China fooled and continues fooling. They never intended to maintain a free market Hong Kong
The world needs to be united once and for all to defeat the evil CCP regime

Not only their own media, China is trying to control other media from all around the world
Cow Boy Diplomacy versus Ping Pong Diplomacy - when a pupil tries to emulate his master. America slapped by the wrong men in the right place.
Maybe someone should warn POMPEO about being such a lazy, self-important, thin-skinned prick that he can't handle deserved criticism for being a high-handed fool. (Consider the displacement of SWAMP if HIS tub of guts were dragged to the shore. Hell, a wadable moat!)🙁 ^..^
Where is the freedom of speech that Hong Kong used to be proud of? StandWithHongKong
China is the biggest threat to the world.
After he interfered with everything related to China.....
LaundryGate
What did he warn them not to be too gentle in the gulags?
sorry but
The state of world economy won't recover unless China pays for its virus.
So Trump wants a war with China, to distract his cult followers from the real issue, which is he did not take the Coronavirus seriously and is responsible for far more deaths than should have happened which might cost him the election. Unbelievable. But then again.....no it's not
Is he warning realDonaldTrump about interference with U.S. journalists?
Perhaps he should look at the administration he works for...
Leave it up to the U.S to go to war during a pandemic.
How about you have someone pick up your laundry!
maybe he should worry about Trump interfering with OUR journalists
Yeah, DON'T F with our journalists, but PLEASE PLEASE interfere with our elections!!! What a tool.
it is helpful
you can't stop china just by talking ChinaLiedPeopleDied
Enough on word war time for much needed action against culprit
Oh I bet there terrified of America right now 😂😂😂
US-based journalist Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by Syria. Trump said US oil interests were more important than justice. As the Trump regime's re-election fears increase, we are seeing increased aggression towards China. Trump will hold onto power by any and all means.
What's wrong with that? Seems like interfering with journalists and facts is all what trump does.
警告你麻痹
Kick the journalists out of HK, they are just cia shills.
Pompeo, the China-hating ex-CIA goon falls into Chinese sensibility definition of a criminal. His current investigation by US law enforcement officials reinforce this widely held view. China don't deal with criminals. Pompeo's false words will fall on deaf ears in China.
hypocrite, want about interference of U.S. Journalist here in American/D.C. by Trump administration.
China has the right to bar American journalists from working in Hong Kong as it would falls within the central government's purview over diplomatic affairs. Under Hong Kong's Basic Law, Beijing is ultimately responsible for foreign affairs and defence in Hong Kong.
The U.S. has lost the right to tell anyone how to treat a journalist. Our Commander In Cheif squandered that privilege a while ago. nytimes washingtonpost CNN CBSNews GreekReporter NewsHour
And it starts...it’s gonna be 6 months of China China China “ad nauseum”...until something bad happens and he declares himself a war President again.
Are they observing the law? If not even if u don't like it respect others laws .
Not journalists, all are spy
Pompeo and co should now realise america is not the big boy in the school playground anymore america should come out of the illusion of been the super power and learn to play a diplomat before its too late for humanity.
Disgrace of America
Take care of your own country, don't waste your tax to do some non-sense.
Ok.
While at home he abuses reporters SecPompeo should stfu
f3_iam you can't b soft to a thuggish regime like china that killed more than hitler in human history. china dream = eliminate (not only destroy) america.
Really?
While tRump vilifies US journalists here in the US. Double standard
Yea you better listen China or more of your diplomats will end up mysteriously dead. 😁
This entire administration is nothing but professional liars. Why bother asking them anything?
Director of Wuhan lab admitted having studying virus when asked he said paraphrased that he had confidence in lab control procedures ...he never denied having and studying COVID19
China is trying to silence the whole world by oppressing freedom of press. What’s happening in HK will soon happen to the world. We must support the brave journalists!
Would you say, mikepompeo is threatening to dog walk China? Hahaha. Pompeo is garbage.
Who in the world takes this weak Trump sycophant seriously?
mikepompeo take your journalist home
Suddenly they're concerned about journalists!?
Seems very vague to me on specifics
They are a disgrace to journalists.
Fake news in the us and Hong Kong will only do some inhuman things under the false banner of democracy and human rights.
China has the right to expel American journalists who are rubbish
I'm so sick of seeing his fat face
the so-called 12Y old 'journalists' recording only police forces ? :) :) LangleyTrainedLiar GetMyDogFromGrooming
Of course, SecPompeo is about to be arrested by USMarshalsHQ but report his threats instead. Good work.
Yeah because only we can interfere with and berate journalist so back off
How about Trump interference with US journalists in the Whitehouse ?
Yes, because interfering with U.S. journalists is HIS job, apparently. Seriously, is a total lack of self-awareness like an essential job requirement for the trump administration?
dear ... Pompeo JUST had Linick fired for investigating HIM! WHY are you not reporting in that? PompeoGate
What right does any individual even tangentially related to the current Administration have in speaking about journalists
I thought he was too busy quashing investigations into making staff walk his dog
Shut up Mike.
Man has no credibility
...and then he made the under secretary of Asian affairs go out and buy him Tums at Walgreens
Thanks Sec Pompeo for StandWithHongKong. All press is staying strong at the frontline of Hong Kong uprising movement. The press tells the world the truth and uses all the ways to protect our freedom of journalism. Request US to execute HKHRDA on those who violated human rights!
'We lied, cheated, stole' Secretary Pompeo.
Thanks for speaking for hk. The HK journalist are under HKPF attrack too.
DiscoverHongKong where foreign journalists are expelled, local journalists are stigmatised to justify their brutal treatments, & future journalists are warned to give up their dream and passion. This is the fascist HongKong where One Country Two Systems is dead already. SOSHK
ONLY PROPAGENDA, NO NEWS IN 🇨🇳 The world should boycott Chinese media - they just pick materials in favor of their Propagenda, and make misleading news. Interfering US journalist is CCP’s tyranny act and it must be stopped.
Thank you Mr Pompeo for speaking for Hong Kong! 🙏🏾 The CCP really needs to be warned. StandWithHongKong
How is that really different from the Corrupt Leader calling the news fake?
By tightening its hold on Hong Kong's press freedom, China is explicitly breaching the 1C2S framework. US should suspend the city's special trade status which China has used it to its advantages over the years.
CCP continues ignoring freedom of press no matter how many calls to them! Not only journalists, CCP invades HK judicial system, LegCo, education system hardly, plus the recent whitewash IPCC report for hkpolicebrutality, HK has been suffocated, please keep abreast with us!
Pompeo should keep up the good work.
Trumps number one puppet
Yet has no interest in proven Russian interference in US elections🙄
POMPEO will definitely die by punishment of the God
Trumps family has 35 trademarks in China..and not One Company has moved bac to America..
The number of freelancer journalist is far more than so-called protestors who are terrorist actually..And be a protestor could earn a lot in Hong Kong...This isn't joke.
This guy is a attack dog against China. Chinese Black fans. Always China, China China, without China, he can't do anything else.
He needs to shut up, seriously, and stop forming the groundless narrative against China. We don't want to see a war.
Who odd, this man is off is head, most Americans, have no idea were Hong Kong is? They might think is a large gorilla, climbing, a sky scraper.
Just shows you that not only does the CCP lie about the extent of a dangerous virus, which lead to a pandemic, they also lied during the Hong Kong handover, and their responsibilty of non interference in 1 country 2 systems. Not a regime ANY of us should do business with!
Shouldnt he warn trump about trearment of journalists in America?
Doesn’t make sense
recognize Taiwan. build a city called New Hong Kong and prepare for refugees and expatriates.
Good warnings! Evil CCP attempt to change Hong Kong into Xinjiang where they can seriously violate human rights while fooling the world that they are good to the people there! NO WAY! Hongkongers will stand up to fight hard for our freedom and rights!
China bashing ? Great Trump reelection strategy? Especially with Americans who hate others who don't look like them? Especially when targeted by Trump, role model for Christian love for their neighbor as instructed by Jesus? Jesus who?
Thought they were “the enemy of the people” though...
Yes plz stand up for the journos and StandWithHongKong , we dont want a next Veby!
Pompeo should warn Trump 'over interference with U.S. journalists' in US.
But what about interference with US government officials in place to keep the US elected and appointed people from taking advantage of their positions?
He wants China to respect western journalists in HK, but then straight up bans Chinese journalists in the US? This guy is as illogical as the rioters.
Meanwhile, MAGA Americans harass journalists domestically. You not credible, dude.
CCP intervention again in siezing the opportunity in Covid-19 to bully or stamp all over institutions of democracy.
To which they replied, 'What did you do about that journalist that the Saudis massacred and cut up?' And then, Pompeo held his head low and slowly backed out of the room in shame.
Sec Pompeo talking about interfering with the free press - and they say Americans don’t do irony . . .
What about the abuse suffered by US journalists rained upon them by his own President and boss?
The appalling irony. Could Pompeo be more disingenuous?
is the secretary of states or of china?
China doesn't scare.That's going to be their strategy to blame all their troubles on China.The US's main creditor is China.If China sold off a
Journalists or CIA agents..........
SecPompeo, now do your boss.
Pompeo continued, 'putting US journalists in harms way is our administration's job!'
Sure, they have to treat our journalists well, so they can be abused domestically!🤔
Are there really any U.S. 'journalists' left?
I think SecPompeo might be the most ineffective Secretary of State in US history. No one respects America anymore.
But what about that fake news mantra he and his cronies keep spewing...now they're interested in journo's?
SecPompeo can eat his shorts.
Yeah cartels messed with journalists in Mexico and Obama sent them guns, so yeah
Only we can vilify and hurt our free press, not you guys!
Did he say anything about interference with US journalists in the US?
