What does that mean? Did the officials in Hong Kong quit paying their “10% for the Big Guy”? Remember: Biden said the Uighur genocide was just a case of differing “cultural norms”. His words exactly! So China crushing HK is just par for the course, right?

By the same token, the us government has already tightened its regulations on Chinese students, researchers, investors. What’s so wrong with the measures that are taken by the Chinese government? Bear in mind, it is the us that started this stupid “war” on the economic front.
Kick American companies out of Hong Kong.
Hong Kong now = China. CCP = Na zis. West must treat HK as China and we must prioritize phasing China out of everything.
Time to get to Chinese !
Before they get you !
Xi Jinping and his CCP have gone megalomaniacal. This is not national security, it’s about attaining more power.
This happens in the USA but it’s called “anti Islamic terror threats”
That's coming to the United States next thanks to Biden
Evil CCP needs to be stopped. The tougher stance President Trump had was more beneficial!
more sanctions!!!!
HK situation is deteriorating? Average Hong Kong people live better than we do in the USA. 2021 still Hong Kong was ranked most free in economic liberty, also longer life expectancy and quality of life than USA. This is Biden's new anti-China policy where instead of competing trying to create economic war. Incompetent leaders refuse to compete they want to dominate through military and wars.
Biden's actual warning, " Look, if you aren't my son Hunter, then the communists to take you your money instead of handing it to you"
You go in debt from inflation, we give you stimulus to pay it, vote democrat lol!
What a joke….what was the give away. The clamp down 2 years ago? The cessation of rights 21 months ago. The removal of candidates in the last election. Oh, and telling everyone in the world that the agreed to timeline really doesn't work for them 30 months ago. So, HUH.?
And American companies in Hong Kong have been telling Trump and now Biden to quit messing around with Hong Kong and China. Why don't the media in here report it??
"The situation in Hong Kong is deteriorating. And the Chinese government is not keeping its commitment that it made how it would deal … with Hong Kong, but don't worry…all of Hunter's loans are safe and I still get 10 percent off the top for.. y'know….being the Big Guy." Biden said Thursday.
Free hong kong
I'm sure China is just trembling with fear now that Sleepy Joe is drooling over all the furniture in the White House. 😉
A very big appreciation to Dr. IGUDIA on YouTube for helping me get rid of my five years old herpes virus may God continue to bless your good work sir.
Nothing says illegitimate more than Biden, you can’t convince me eighty million people voted for him..
If you making business decisions based on CNBC you won’t make money no matter where you at
He needs to learn how to talk
Oh he on drugs
When you ca't take it with trickery,you have to use force,thieves.🤣🤣🤣🤣
fake news….hong kong is fine
joe biden is the worst president in human history
Fact Checked : True . ✔️
A spokesperson for the Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Hong Kong said that the US has ignored China’s opposition and business calls, and has deliberately concocted the so-called “warnings”. It is true that attempts to undermine Hong Kong’s prosperity and stability, endanger China’s national security, and obstruct China’s development. The despicable U.S. conspiracy is disgusting and will never succeed! The spokesman emphasized that Hong Kong is China's Hong Kong, Hong Kong affairs are purely China's internal affairs, and Hong Kong's prosperity and stability cannot be undermined. We urge the United States to rein in the precipice, immediately stop anti-China political plots to disrupt Hong Kong, stop wanton bullying with sanctions sticks, and stop interfering in Hong Kong affairs and China's internal affairs in any way. The Chinese people are bound to give a head-on attack to the US's wanton and reckless actions!
Are Hong-kong residents better than those of Shanghai? Buzz off with your white savior mentality. Can Mike Pompeo find decent employment since China sanctioned him? His wife will leave him soon
Meanwhile, Joe Biden threatens social media companies about ‘misinformation.’
The US is doing the same thing as China.
Electronic surveillance without warrant LOL that’s child’s play for the American NSA are you really trying to frighten people with something we’ve been living under since Obama took office
It's good to see US government stand out confronting China when a democracy community was being killed alive just right before us, it's a devastation to anyone from free world and we should keep hypervigilant, the tyranny regime from eastern now start to show it's teeth and unveiled hostility to the whole democracy community.
I'm happy to sleepin…
Great Job Kernan!
"U.S. warns companies that the Hong Kong situation is 'deteriorating'". Because if you don't get out, we'll sanction you.
Why does usa needs to be tough on China? Is USA that white supremist?
I don't recall such relentless attention and "righteous" zeal by the media and other world leaders when it came to exposes on the infamous Guantanamo Bay detention camp, and the CIA black sites and activities for decades – hmmm … was the US Government sanctioned? Did G7 do anything to punish the US? Hmmm … talk about double standards?
Historical fact: Britain declared war to protect its illegal drug-smuggling operations giving rise to The First Opium War which lasted from 1839 to 1842. … China lost and had to cede Hong Kong to Britain in the Treaty of Nanking. As a result, Hong Kong became a crown colony of the British Empire. Key words: "illegal drug-smuggling".
So, trying to make sense of it – if my tenant does illegal drug smuggling and uses force to evict me when I confront him about it as it is harming my family members, does that extinguish my beneficial rights to my house? The tenant then renovates, redecorates my house, and makes various changes. I then get back the house through a tacit admittance of wrong-doing by the tenant after some time, do I not have an absolute right to decide what I want to throw out or keep or change in what is mine?
Question then is why should any nation not have the basic right to chart and decide on its own path and future – so long as it is not adversely impacting the world, like starting wars in other countries under "WMD" false flags and murky agendas or initiating trade wars with adverse impact globally or beating war drums in a world already worn out by the pandemic. Complicated world.
sheperd smith traitor-to-trump … cnbc must be junk news
All western based business should remove all interest from Chinese controlled countries at once.
No more business for Hong kong from the free world.
