and Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen gathered alongside a bipartisan group of House lawmakers Wednesday outside of Los Angeles, projecting a united democratic front that brushed aside stern warnings from China that the meeting not go forward.
Tsai shook hands with McCarthy upon arriving shortly after 10 a.m. local time. She met with the speaker, then approximately a dozen and a half Republican and Democratic lawmakers. McCarthy went around the room introducing Tsai to every member. Video from the scene showed an airplane hoisting a banner that read “One China! Taiwan is part of China!” as the president arrived, flanked by protesters along the street spanning the full spectrum of views on Taiwan’s status.posted a message
