Chinese Embassy in Washington abruptly hardens perimeter as U.S. escalates pressure on Iran

Barbed wire is being installed around the Chinese Embassy in Washington, D.C. in real time, observed and reported by a local source as crews work in full daylight to reinforce an already secured compound.

The timing is what raises concern. The United States has moved to increase pressure on Iran through a naval blockade, and China has signaled opposition to that action, stating it will not align with the effort. The embassy hardening is unfolding against that backdrop, with no formal explanation provided.

Moments like this tend to be understood only in hindsight. Before major conflicts, the earliest signs are often not official statements, but visible shifts in posture. Increased security. Sudden changes. Activity that breaks from the normal pattern.

This may ultimately prove routine. But right now, it is a foreign embassy on U.S. soil visibly preparing for something, and no one is saying why.

@Polymarket Imagine if Trump Supporters hired Trump Haters to manage this organization with the full knowledge and intention of bilking leftists of their money; which could then be funneled into Trump’s election war chest? That would be a brilliant idea and master chess strategy!

A lot of people are misunderstanding what President Trump is proposing with the federal gas tax.

The President cannot simply “turn off” the federal gas tax by himself.

The federal gasoline tax is created by federal law, which means Congress would have to pass a bill suspending it before it could actually happen.

Here’s what would need to occur:

• A bill would have to be introduced in Congress
• The House and Senate would both have to approve it
• Congress would need to address the billions in lost highway funding caused by suspending the tax
• The President would then sign the bill into law
• After that, fuel distributors and gas stations would begin adjusting prices

The current federal gas tax is 18.4 cents per gallon.

So if this ever happened and the full savings were passed directly to consumers, a $50 fill up might drop by only a few dollars. The larger issue affecting prices is still global oil prices and instability in the Middle East.

Right now this is a proposal and political position, not an active suspension already in effect.

You mean the voices telling me not to shop at your store anymore because you charged me an extra $2.45 for individual boxes so I could make each of my team members feel special by giving them their own cookie? Next time, I’ll bake my own for them. Corporate greed at its finest. @crumbl
