Brickbat: International Fugitives

Hong Kong police have issued arrest warrants for five human rights activists based in other countries, including one American citizen. Simon Cheng, Frances Hui, Joey Siu, Johnny Fok, and Tony Choi are charged with crimes such as incitement to secession, subversion, and collusion with foreign countries or external forces. Police have offered a $1 million (U.S. $128,022) reward for the arrest of each of the five.

Fuck China and their employee Joe Biden.
Julian Assange was not available for comment.
Collusion! Rachel Maddow has a boner.
If you see something, say something to your neighborhood Chinese police station.
Sounds like a Biden-EU move when issuing sanctions against pro multipolar folks.
If any of the cited are in the US and on the public dole, ship them there and collect the finder’s fee.
Handing anyone to the Chinese is cruel and unusual.
But at this point activists deserve nothing less from their own antics, maybe not these particular people but as a class.
I think "human rights activists" operating in Hong Kong might be a slightly different group of people than what we get domestically.
Let's send The Donald over there to show them how it's done!!! Put the babies into wire cages, and then deliberately lose track of their MomDads! THAT will solve Hong Kong's horrible crime wave, for SURE!
Wanted. Dead or alive.
$1 million (U.S. $128,022)
China has finally taken control of the dollar.
$1 million (U.S. $128,022, U.S. White Liberal Women $98,577)
They're just factoring in inflation given the time for verification and check processing.
Why'd the writer only use the dollar sign $ for the 1 million when it's the HK$?
Watch as Blinken tries to have them extradited.
