China has the world's largest high-speed railway network, which measures a staggering 35,000 kilometres (21,747 miles) as of 2019, according to China Central Television Station.
The distance is more than two-thirds of the world's total.
The country's total railway coverage is 139,000 kilometres (86,370 miles), enough to wrap the Earth three times by the equator.
China is investing heavily in the construction of its rail system.
It plans to spend no less than 2.8 trillion yuan (£307 billion) building no less than 23,000 kilometres (14,291 miles) of new railways between 2016 and 2020, according to a government plan.
NYC career criminal who punched Asian woman last year arrested for 42nd time for attack on MTA worker
A man charged for sucker punching an Asian woman in New York City’s Chinatown last year is back behind bars after allegedly attacking an MTA worker last week.
Alexander Wright, 49, is accused of beating subway cleaner Anthony Nelson at the Pelham Bay Park Station on the No. 6 line at around 8:40 a.m. last Thursday. Reports say Nelson confronted Wright, who had been harassing other customers.
Nelson, 35, wound up in the hospital with a dislocated nose and broken collarbone. He underwent surgery on Monday and has remained hospitalized as of Tuesday.
“This man Alexander Wright should not be walking the streets,” said Nelson’s mother, Lisa, according to the New York Post. “I hope these politicians and these judges give him the max that he deserves and do not let him walk free.”

Wright, a known transient, was taken into custody shortly after the incident. Police sources said this is his 42nd arrest, as per Eyewitness News.
His last arrest occurred in June 2021 after he allegedly assaulted a 55-year-old Asian woman in Chinatown. Surveillance video shows the moment a man sucker punches the victim without provocation, knocking her out instantly.
Wright has been charged with two counts of assault and one count of harassment in the latest incident. He remains held on a $5,000 bail.
He reportedly appeared briefly at The Bronx County Courthouse on Tuesday, but his hearing was adjourned to Friday. A union rally attended by Nelson’s family and supporters took place on the same day outside the building.
“To assault an MTA employee is a felony charge up to seven years. We want the maximum,” Robert Kelley of Transport Workers Union Local 100 said, according to CBS New York.
The US left is anarchist- they want to tear down the social order b/c they see it as white.
China encourages work, US liberals give out free benefits that undermine work and encourage illegal immigration.
Democrats can't make the US strong b/c they hate it's white population and it's history.

These are Democrat values

McCraw previously dismissed the idea that his state troopers could or should have stepped in to take control from Arredondo.
…
Yet when pressed by Sen. Roland Gutierrez, a Democrat whose district includes Uvalde, McCraw conceded that confronting an active shooter is more important than deferring to an officer who, according to protocol, is the rightful incident commander.

Although the former head of Crossfire Hurricane, Peter Strzok, was fired after the disclosure of his vitriolic anti-Trump tweets, several members of his team remain working in the counterintelligence unit, the sources say, even though they are under active investigation by both Durham and the bureau's disciplinary arm, the Office of Professional Responsibility. The FBI declined to respond to questions about any role they may be taking in the Mar-a-Lago case.

With 35,000 employees you would think they could find a few who were not tainted with the past fiasco. Even if not partisan it shows, at the very least, a complete disregard for the optics and the FBI’s reputation.
