Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel is heading to Beijing to talk with the Chinese government, and the message he‘s bringing to the Chinese is that (a) Americans don‘t do irony and (b) we‘re a bunch of lying hypocrites. I‘m sure that will go over well. You may recall the recent revelations that the NSA (which is a part of the defense department) had hacked into Huawei — a company that the US keeps insisting is likely used by the Chinese government to spy on people… even though it has no evidence at all to support that.
