China has issued a stern warning to the United States against any plans for war.

The statement was released by the Chinese Embassy in the U.S. through their official X (formerly Twitter) page.

It reads: ““The US needs to realise that China is not a mirror image of the hegemonic US.

“The US should stop viewing China-US relations with an outdated Cold War mentality.

“The US must no longer seek to contain or go after China in the name of strategic competition.

“Whatever kind of war it is—whether a tariff war, a trade war, a cold war, or a hot war—they should not be fought and cannot be won.”

This comes after U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated on *Fox & Friends* that the U.S. is prepared to go to war with China.

Popular TikToker Taylor Rousseau Grigg has passed away.

Her husband, Cameron Grigg, shared the heartbreaking news on her Instagram, alongside by a lengthy caption that reads: “No one ever expects to have to deal with this kind of pain and heartache, especially at our age.

“This past year Taylor has dealt with more pain and suffering than most people do in a lifetime. And in spite of that, she still has been such a light and always brought joy to everyone around her.”She is the most brave and strong woman I know, and her confidence in the Lord outweighed every other circumstance she’s faced, even in her darkest hours. I know she’s saved my life and so many others out there.”

“More than anything Taylor would want to know that she’s continuing to save people’s lives even after she’s gone from this world. And even though her earthly body may have failed her, her memory and life will be carried on forever.
“While her earthly body is still here waiting to give the gift of life, we know her spirit is in heaven dancing in the streets made of gold with all her beauty and grace. Her endless shoe/boot collection. And her rhinestones and turquoise jewellery.”

“With this being so sudden and unexpected we don’t have anything financially in order. Taylor has been in and out of the hospital since we got married which has affected our financial situation, therefore we don’t have any insurance.
“A friend set up a gofundme for anyone who would like to contribute. And even if you can’t contribute financially, prayers for our family are always needed. I’ll share the link and really appreciate if y’all would share it as well.(sic)”
