This is the astonishing moment a Chinese warship comes within 150 yards of an American destroyer in Taiwan Strait, just days after the Pentagon said it would not stand for 'bullying' by Beijing. Footage obtained by Global News, shows a People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) warship cut across the bow of a U.S. guided-missile destroyer on Saturday while it was transiting the Taiwan Strait. USS Chung Hoon and HMCS Montreal had also been transiting the strait on a rare joint mission when a PLAN warhsip cut across the bow of Chung-Hoon.

The video shows that our ship was clearly the stand-on vessel and the burden was on the PLAN vessel to give way and avoid colliding. That, of course, presumes that the latter wasn't looking for trouble. Our guys were no doubt ready for just such foolery.

Chung Hoon has been doing this sort of thing for over a decade, there have been several prior incidents where it was operating in concert with other countries warships and US Survelience ships. They also had practice before being assigned, they were the "Partner" vessel when China sent a destroyer to Pearl Harbor, they held joint maneuvers and communications exercises that established the future protocols for contacts in the disputed regions.

In the late 50's I was aboard the USS Tulare AKA112, when we traversed the Straits. At that time the Chinese were shelling the islands of Quemoy and Matsu. Point is we, the US, have been doing this since the 1950's and the Chinese have been hostile since then as well.

The proper commands on the bridge of the US destroyer would have been, (over the 1MC - or ship's loudspeaker system) - "Rig for collision, this is no drill!" And then to the helmsman... All ahead flank. Steady as she goes. "

More independents prefer former President Donald Trump than President Joe Biden in a head-to-head matchup, the latest survey from The Economist/YouGov found. The survey asked respondents who they would support between Biden and Trump if the 2024 general election was held now. The two potential challengers are tied across the board with 39 percent support each, followed by nine percent who said they would not vote, seven percent who said “other,” and five percent who remain unsure. However, Biden has a three-point advantage among registered voters, specifically.

The owner of two of San Francisco's largest hotels has stopped making mortgage payments on the properties and will let them go into foreclosure as historic crime rates continue to deter tourists. Park Hotels and Resorts announced on Monday that it stopped making payments on its $725 million loan due in November for the Hilton San Francisco Union Square and Parc 55 — the largest and fourth-largest hotels in the city, respectively. 'After much thought and consideration, we believe it is in the best interest for Park's stockholders to materially reduce our current exposure to the San Francisco market,' CEO Thomas Baltimore Jr said in a statement.

John Kirby, National Security Council coordinator for strategic communications, denied on Monday the Biden family’s business schemes represent a national security threat despite admitting he had not read the House Oversight Committee report on the matter. In May, the House Oversight Committee’s probe found the Biden family business over the course of several years received at least $10 million from business schemes in Romania and China in return for what appears to be influence peddling. In total, nine Biden family members received payments from the family foreign business ventures, including two of Joe Biden’s grandchildren, the investigation revealed.
