Amidst US Crackdown, Pompeo Meets Tiananmen “Survivors”
A day after President Trump promised to “dominate” nationwide protests against institutionalized racist police brutality, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is scheduled to meet with survivors of China’s 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, according to his State Department schedule.
NYPD vehicles have already plowed into crowds of protesters; police backed by the National Guard cleared protesters outside the White House with tear gas and rubber bullets; and the president, who chastised governors Monday for using insufficient violence, is vowing to use the U.S. military against further unrest.
Amid China’s growing pressure on the city, officials in Hong Kong on Monday canceled its main event to mark the Beijing massacre for the first time in three decades, citing coronavirus worries.

Fascism
There was NO massacre….fake news 100%. This fact has been proven by Wikileaks and other journalists years ago yet the same old narrartive even today:

Of course there was no massacre in Tien An Men square. The policemen were unarmed. The state TV was reporting daily from the square. The administration invited representatives of the protesters to talks. Only when violent groups attacked the police the latter was forced to react to restore order.
