San Francisco Shows Its True Commie Colors As Xi Jinping Drives Through

Protestors and supporters of Chinese leader Xi Jinping clashed at San Francisco’s international airport on Tuesday as he arrived for a much-anticipated meeting with Joe Biden, the US president. Ahead of their sit-down, the Californian city, where one-fifth of the population has Chinese roots, has become a magnet for dissident groups protesting human rights abuses in Hong Kong, Xinjiang and Tibet.

It has also drawn fans of the Chinese president, who have greeted his arrival with balloons, banners and megaphones belting out patriotic messages. Mr Xi was shielded from the skirmishes and human rights chants by a heavy police presence as he was greeted on the airport tarmac by a high-level welcoming party including State Governor Gavin Newsom, the city mayor and US ambassador to Beijing.
