中共官媒環球時報前總編輯胡錫進29日推文嗆聲，若美國軍機護送眾議院議長裴洛西訪台，解放軍驅離無效有權發射導彈「擊落專機」，對此前美國國務卿蓬佩奧（Mike Pompeo）30日在推特發文痛批「裴洛西出訪是美、台兩個主權國家的事！」
The Biden administration caving to the CCP would display very dangerous weakness. We are no one's satellite state. This is a matter between two sovereign Nations - America and Taiwan.
— Mike Pompeo (@mikepompeo) July 29, 2022
蓬佩奧連發推文呼籲，「拜登總統必須全力支持裴洛西訪台，不要軟弱、屈服於北京戰爭販子和獨裁者的要求，應支持熱愛自由的台灣人民。」
CCP-mouthpiece The Global Times threatens Pelosi's plane will be shot down if she visits Taiwan.
— Mike Pompeo (@mikepompeo) July 29, 2022
President Biden must give full support to this visit. Don't be weak and cave to the demands of petty warmongers and dictators in Beijing. Support the freedom-loving people of Taiwan.
而近日來不斷在推特警告美軍，甚至揚言解放軍可「擊落」裴洛西專機的胡錫進，他的推特帳號遭以違反規則為由被鎖，讓他不得不自行刪文解鎖，甚至自嘲「有什麼辦法，人在屋簷下，不得不低頭。」
