A mysterious fleet of propeller aircraft was seen flying banners over New York Wednesday to congratulate “the New Federal State of China.”
Confused and irritated New Yorkers saw banners from Manhattan, flew over Hudson, and above Red Hook in Brooklyn.
“I officially don’t know what happened to f-k anymore,” one person said tweeted with pictures of planes over New York Harbor.
The banners appeared to be a strange act against the Chinese Communist Party launched by Steve Bannon and a fugitive Chinese billionaire, who together on the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre declared the Chinese government illegitimate.
“From today the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) will no longer be a legitimate Chinese government,” the billionaire said, Guo Wengui shouting to the direct stream of a ship in the Port of New York, with Bannon at his side and the Statue of Liberty in the background.
“I am here to tell everyone who loves peace, law, humanity – we will end the Communist party once and for all. We have hundreds of supporting countries,” Guo claimed.
Viewers on Twitter said they saw as many as eight planes carrying banners, some with the message “Congratulations to the new Federal State of China.”
Guo, who often criticizes China, recently pushed the coronavirus theory that states the virus originated in Chinese laboratories.
She is explained by the New York Times Magazine as a mysterious businessman in exile who made allegations of “impossible to verify” to the Chinese ruling elite, was photographed in the feature of holding a pomeranian in a beautiful white room.
Former Trump chief of strategy joins Guo in the song “Drop the CCP!” before Guo kissed Bannon on the cheek.
Bannon later accused China of causing “great bloodshed in Hong Kong” and, without evidence, “letting go[ing]”Coronavirus in the world before reading the declaration of China’s New Federal State.
“It has recently unleashed a biological attack on the free countries of the world, the CCP virus, through their inability and their corruption and covering up for them,” Bannon said.
“The Chinese Communist Party is a gangster organization without legitimacy,” he added.
John Sifton, Asia Advocacy Director at Human Rights Watch for-profit, pays attention to planes in Brooklyn.
“None of us knows what is happening,” he tweeted after consulting with his colleagues.
“Apparently it has something to do with Steve Bannon, but that still doesn’t make sense.”
