Janet Yellen, the US Secretary of the Treasury is WARNING CHINA.

The warning to China underscores how the impact of the war continues to reverberate, straining ties between the world’s two largest economies as they were attempting to stabilize their relationship.
“We have made clear that providing material support to Russia or assistance with any kind of systemic sanctions evasion would be a very serious concern for us,” Ms. Yellen said. “We will certainly continue to make clear to the Chinese government and the companies and banks in their jurisdiction about what the rules are regarding our sanctions and the serious consequences they would face for violating them.”

“We will stand with Ukraine in its fight — for as long as it takes,” Ms. Yellen said

Surprised China hasn't invaded Taiwan yet. It'll definitely happen later this year or next.

Is China "invading" Taiwan when much of the world considers Taiwan part of China?
Or is China defending a part of its security interest so that an island just off its coast isn't armed to the teeth with American weapons?

I believe the uniparty warparty in Washington is testing China. Daring her that if she moves, it is war. Which is really fine to them.
But they don't believe China has the balls. What they don't understand is that Russia and China are entering a phase of civilizational survival, holy war against the American beast -- for the sake of the world.

This is their official position.

This is the US we're talking about. They care more about rebuilding the infrastructure of other countries just so they can destroy them again.

It isn't being used to replace dangerous, failing rural bridges. But it's certainly being spent. Mostly it's going to big cities, which don't use it to fix actual problems because it's earmarked. So, it goes to paint stripes of six colors on crosswalks, turn perfectly good and heavily utilized traffic lanes into abandoned bicycle lanes, and fix things that aren't broken. Like, locally, at the junction of I-44 and US75, they're building long-assed modern interchange bridges even as we continue to use the old cloverleaves in the shadows of the new bridge supports.

Thanks for the tax dollars, America. We didn't ask for this, and don't really need it.
