John Kirby is some sort of national security wonk, a mouthpiece for the security apparatus. He claims that US policy does not support the independence of Taiwan.
US National Security coordinator John Kirby on Monday said that the United States is clear about its One China policy and does not support "Taiwan independence" amid the reports of US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan.
That is utter bullshit. It may be US policy, but that needs to change this afternoon. Real Americans suppoet indepence anywhere on the globe. Real Americans support independence everywhere.
I see that San Fran Nan made it to Taiwan, and I support her in this limited endeavor, even as I wish gloom and despair on her generally. She is right to go to Taiwan and to give the ChiComs a big middle finger.
If Joe Biden was a leader, and was not beholden to the ChiCOms, he would fire Kirby immediately.

Quote from an article on the subject:
"The Act rendered support to Taiwan in form of defending the island from external aggression along with continuing “deep commercial and economic links, and strong people-to-people ties” with Taiwan, according to the US Department of State."
