If this situation breaks down, it could have serious global implications.
Hong Kong protesters have shut down their major airport for 2 days, and the Chinese Government is cracking down.
These guys know how to get their point across. They were singing “Do You Hear The People Sing” from the freaking musical ‘Les Miserables’.

Best. Flashmob. Ever.
In fact, their State Government released a video showing just how much military muscle they’re bringing to bear on the standoff:

And today, the crackdown on the protesters has begun.
What’s this all about?
The good citizens of Hong Kong want to retain the freedom they enjoyed during their time under British rule, before the 100-year lease expired. But China now has other plans for them.

Plans they are willing to make by force.
8/11 This female first aid volunteer was shot by Hong Kong police in the eye during a protest Sunday. Doctors fear she could lose her right eye, local media report. This police brutality triggered calls to occupy Hong Kong's airport on 8/12.

With threats from authoritarians like this on the horizon, do we REALLY trust our own domestic authoritarian Dems to do the right thing?
We’ve all seen the dishonest games the left have played with the power they’re entrusted with, they’re obviously unworthy of that trust.
But what about 2020? Could a moral person pull a lever for Trump with their integrity intact? Would Jesus himself vote for Trump? We’re glad you asked. There’s a brand new book that covers precisely that question:
“Would Jesus Vote For Trump?” by Doug Giles and Brandon Vallorani.
Would Jesus ever choose someone, with a less than stellar past, to be a leader? Would Jesus be cool with how Trump blasts CNN, The Left, and his feckless ‘compadres’ on The Right? What about Health Care? Would the Great Physician give Trump’s opposition to ObamaCare the ‘two thumbs up?’ Find out in this BEST-SELLER!
