american athletes who have ever spoken out against the ccp or who speak out against the ccp while in the country could face arrest and up to life in prison. we cannot turn a blind eye to the ccp without properly preparing our athletes for the dystopian reality of china. i supported the diplomatic boycott because it's a way to stand up for american values that without being ashamed of our athletes. we can root for team usa without giving the ccp propaganda opportunity and victory to spread lies and whitewash their crimes. and if our olympians speak out against the ccp's atrocities the state department should ensure that they are protected . and just as jesse owens showed adolf hitler that the aryan nation would not superior i know our athletes would show the chinese athletes we will take on the gold and take it back home to the united states. >> i'm so grateful for harassment called leadership on this issue . that was a powerful statement but i am so excited to start our discussion here today. we have three great panelists to talk to. first of all so excited to welcome ms cancer freed

we will not support companies who help the ccp, will not vote for politicians who have the ccp, we will not celebrate president xi's dictatorship. figure skating and hockey, they are great, and we look forward to watching them again someday. but this year, the cries of the uighurs, the people of hong kong, the journalist, and everyone who wants to know the truth about covid are just too loud to ignore it. and is the angle. jonah me now is two-time canadian olympic snowboarder and x games gold medalist, drew, big kudos to you. i'm so impressed for anyone who competes at your level and everything you've accomplished in your career. should any corporate sponsors be treated differently by consumers going forward given what is at stake in these beijing olympics? >> i think you are painting a good nature with your monologue. people forget the whole country -- been under china role since the 50s pair that is three and a half million people who have been prisoners in their own couy for over 70 years. but as far as the sponsors, they get away with making huge money off of this. and as far as i'm

the world must wake up to the horrors of the ccp human rights abuses. as we speak, over one million people in shenzhen province are held in internment camps. they are forced under labor of conditions rain washing, forced sterilization and even death. the ioc allowing what i am calling the genocide games to go forward is a stain on the olympics. i am deeply disturbed that these games will take place in the shadow of concentration plans, clarifying the ccp and normalizing their genocide is civilly unacceptable. including -- putting u.s. libyans in jeopardy as they travel to china is undetectable. american athletes who have spoken out against the ccp or while in the country could face arrest and up to life in prison. we cannot turn a blind eye to the ccp without properly preparing our athletes for the just -- dystopian reality of china. i supported the double medic boycott because it is a way to stand up for american values without punishing our athletes. we can root for team usa without giving the ccp the propaganda opportunity and victory to spread lies

we will not vote for politicians who help the ccp. we willl not celebrate president xi's dictatorship, figure skatingrs and hockey. they're great and we look forward to watching them again someday. but this year the cries of the , the people of hong kong, the journalists and everyone who wants to know wan the truth about covid are just too loud to ignore and that's the angle . all right. joining me now is drew and twooa time canadian olympic snowboarder and x games gold medalist. drew, first of all, big kudos to you. i am so impressed with anyone who competes at your level and everything that you've accomplished in your career should any corporate sponsors be treated differently um by consumers going forward, o given what's at stake in these beijing olympics draw? od i think you've been a really good picture with your monologue. you know, our people forget also the whole country. tibet is has been under trying to rule since the 50s.. i mean, that's three and a half million people who are prisoners in their own country for over sevennt

alongside the ccp and he joins me now.o see you and thank you for being here. >> thanks for having me, maria. maria: give a short reaction to those remarks. >> that day i had a game at 12:30 p.m. and 30 minutes before the game i manager text me the video and after i watched it i was very angry, very disappointed and very disgusted by his nastiness and now i think the whole world knows what's happened to the uighurs is one of the worst, may be the worst human rights abuses in the world today and for him to go out there and say it's below his line to care, it was disgusting. i mean, people know that people are getting tortured and raped and when he said he could care less as an nba owner it really hurt me. people know about it, but he actually owns a company and they pretend to care about you know those social values and its virtue signaling. pretends to care about others and stuff, but only cares about his propaganda and when he said that in us it's happening the same thing and ccp has a different system, i was very angered

we know ray dalio has been managing money for the ccp for years. driving crackdowns on e-commerce and retail real estate sectors, rather, brought down more government control and regulation. dalio is calling the chinese communist party's approach a good thing. he is stressing the benefits of investing in the country. he said the u.s. should adopt a similar system to help close the wealth gap and promote prosperity. joining me now is wolf pack research founder chief investment officer, dan david. dan, we constantly hear ray dalio pushing china's line because it's about money. s he's investing and managing ccp dollars, has been for years. >> it's totally about money. and it's one of my favorite things to hear multibillionaires wax poetic to us about what common prosperity means. he must live it every single day from his gilded tower, paid for by the ccp. and ray dalio has been famous for touting truth and transparency and his firm, it's what made them so successful. well, look, we just call that truth and transparency by the way, us common folks. unl

as you pointed out, china, i mean the ccp is breaking international law, national sovereignty of at least $120.00 countries as their official statements point out on a regular basis. what we've documented in this report is that the campaigns started in 2014, reinforced in 2015 and again in 2018 fox hunt and then crime that the so called anti corruption campaign, where i'm like are options to be taken very broadly. basically hunting, chasing dissidence activists, a growing number of people trying to flee china as official numbers indicate everywhere in the world. now instead of using official legal mechanisms, which obviously we document that they're increasingly trying to do using the triple system trying extradited or default that however, the majority of, of people and we're talking over $10000.00 people that have been recent since operation. fuck 10 starts in 2014, according to official data by the chinese government. the majority of these people are returned to so called a regular means. now that irregular means, again, i'd talk about that in official statements by the chinese governm

almost sounds like a ccp sycophant. his comments had a conference. prosperity is a good thing, another way of saying sharing prosperity for most people. with its own net worth of $20 billion, he extolled the widespread opportunity supposedly provided by the communist system and admitted that his views on the topic were pretty much aligned with those of the communist leadership. well, while co dwelling on the atrocities committed by the ccp against its political and cultural opponents, he proceeded to lecture those in attendance on chinese history. a man afraid of what? offending his honeypot. he praised china for following what he called an evolutionary process toward greater prosperity. as if china didn't get to its dominant position without crushing dissenting voices, cheating on its trade obligations, and bribing foreign journalists and academics. please. xi jing and others understand it's a cycle, mr. dalio said, you get rich and then you make a point of distributing those opportunities in a more equal way. yet dalio's comments, as shocking as th

what do you want to say to these people, who are funding the expansion of ccp at the same time ccp makeose companies americans are unwittingly invested in are say will companies that will turn around fight against the united states because the important companies are obviously, tied to military in china. >> yeah, you know i think we have to look at it like this, maria. the ccp, is looking at president biden, in this administration, and they are laughing. because he is not holding them to account, in the manner that president trump held them to account, whether it was sanctions, or trade, or other components of their participation. finding out what happened with covid. so they see this as a clear runway to take off, this is when they are -- bullying taiwan continuing to push against us why they are not going to give us answers we need. and these companies need to say nothing good comes from communism never does never will. maria: they're not saying that senator so we are going to keep a spotlight on all of this, great to talk with you as always. thank you so much. >> senator marsha black

but i'll open other aspect by the ccp by p r. c. authority you. so the 1st one is to really look into this. again, this is link to the alter their obligation of each country of these $120.00 countries target the under international treaties to protect and defend human rights on their fall. so they need to install adequate monitoring mechanisms reporting mechanisms for these communities and make sure they are protected, investigate expose also, you know, put a price on these kinds of violations. as i said, i mean, many of these operations are being turned out in countries that have traditional cooperation agreements or extradition treaty, which china, these need to be suspended. these need to be looked at. what is happening? why is this happening then needs to be a price on this kind of violations of national sovereignty and human rights? everywhere. obviously, we hope, especially member the parliament may take this up as a matter of urgency with the governments and make sure these practices are exposed . talked about laura house once you've got de

of course the ccp can always count on the america haters to downplayed the threat they pose. two days ago, "the new york times" published what can only be described as a bonding, personal tribute to president xi. but the game is only days away. china has delivered -- china is no longer needing to prove it standing on the world stage. instead, it wants to proclaim the sweeping vision of a more prosperous nation under mr. xi, the country's most powerful leader since mouths its own. but is nothing compared to the slobbering praise the ccp gets from our very own -- >> since then, china has worked hard to not only contain the virus but also contributed to closing the equity gap supplying different countries with many supplies, including vaccines paired i look forward to once again being able to travel to china to see all of you and for sports in person. >> laura: it is shameful. senate minority leader mitch mcconnell has a lot of war hawks in his senate caucus, including himself. but if he wants to avoid being thrown out by another populist uprising in 2024, he needs to resist the

we should return to that same approach toward the ccp. no, it's not going to be easy. but the more manufacturing we bring home, the more secure and less vulnerable america will be in the long run. joining me now is missouri senator josh hawley. senator, good to see you tonight. wall street, congress, the media, universities, they are all lining their pockets with a lot of money. upsetting china with criticisms or concerns could upset the apple cart of these investments. so what now for congress? >> well, i think when it comes to congress, one of the most basic things we should be able to expect, voters, citizens ought to be able to expect is that people who go to congress will be focused on doing with the people want and not on lining their own pockets and patting their own wallets which is why i think it's time to ban stock trading by members of congress. it's not too much to say that if you go to congress, you should either do what most americans do which is to put their savings into broad-based mutual funds or put them in a blind trust. but either way, people in con

we're seeing exactly who the ccp is. general, a question for another day.ate your time this morning. thank you, sir. >> yeah, great talking to you, maria. maria: and to you, general jack keane. quick break and then jp morgan chairman and ceo jamie die upon is with us this morning -- dimon is with us this morning. he tells us about his outlook for the consumer. listen to this. >> for the first time, there's this huge pressure on wages and people, but maria, again, i want to tell our viewers, i think that's good. maria: for the first time in his life, huge pressure on wages. more of my interview next hour as we watch bitcoin tumble to the lowest level in months. we will get into it when we talk crypto coming up. stay with us. superpowers from a spider bite? i could use some help showing the world how liberty mutual customizes their car insurance. ow! i'm ok! only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ only in theaters december 17th. your record label is taking off. but so is your sound engineer. you need to hire. i need indeed. indeed

would you be willing to pledge that you would do no work for ccp affiliated organizations after year government service ends quick. >> yes i'm very willing to make that commitment and i can do that right now. >> i'm satisfied looking forward to supporting her nomination and colleagues of this committee have had a lot of discussions in a classified space where certain types of work with chinese government affiliated organizations in the past are not necessarily inexcusable as we understand the context we s should move to a standard for all national security affiliated responsibilities that there would be no work for affiliated ccp organizations i support your nomination and the distinctionor about domestic political extremism versus violent extremism and senator cornyn has more questions on that i'm happy to move to the second round. >> and the point that you made that many of our colleagues as well as many businesses don't understand this and to sides of the dais as we make the case in a classified setting and i was simply sayn to my colleagues there are two more senators on webex. >

bu wow,t but that's nothing compared to the slobbering praise the ccp gets from our very own elites. since the onset of the pandemic, china has worked a hard to not only contain the virus but also contributed to closing the equity gap by supporting other countries with many different supplies, including great vaccines. i look forward to once again being able to travel to chinall to see all of you and this work in person. it is shameful. now senate minority leader mitch mcconnell has a lot ofmc warhawks in his senate caucus, including himself. but if he wants to avoid being thrown out by another populist uprising and 20 twenty four , he needs to resist the war machines temptation. now this may be wishful thinking, but he ought to, make it very clear to biden that the gop does nothe g support sending our troops to eastern europe. well, to folks who think we're fundamentally racist, who think our military is filled with o extremists, let them own this . we have enough failed war baggage and the gop and for the rest of us we have to focus on finding leaders in both parties who can build

lives there as well, they have a very close relationship to the ccp. >> they do.book principles talked about the second most powerful man in china, and calls him a sort a quasi religious influenza on his life ray dalio's life said this man a remarkable force for good for decades i thought take a cursory look who is this man, that gets the high operatives from ray dalio, this is president xi's enforceer, the commitment manager called him most feared man in china this is the guy takes political opponents gets them thrown in jail, purges political competitors this is the guy ray dalio plays out some kind of saint, it is really, really odious stuff. >> and yet ray dalio is able to write a book and maim it principles. principles. you also write about big tech elites bending to china in the book peter you write blinded by accomplish silicon valley elites help communist china achieve goal technology supremacy over west, you mentioned facebook, tesla we know apple tim cook did a big deal agreed to train chinese to understand better, how to use technology, and in return, a

moreover, how can we trust the ccp to protect and care for our athletes. the answer is we can't and shouldn't. joining me now is mike pompeo, fox news contributor and former secretary of state. mr. secretary, these olympics are poised to be a massive p.r. coup for presidency and yet we're -- for the president and yet we're plowing right away. >> good evening, laura. glad to be with you. i've been asking for our athletes not to go to beijing for a while now. i regret that the leadership in the united states and the i.o.c. failed the olympics. i saw carl lewis run. we were sitting on high-up seats in the l.a. coliseum. i love this event. we shouldn't prop up the president. this will be known as the genocide olympics. what's taken place in western china is nothing short of genocide. the virus came from the wuhan institute of virology. almost certainly this virus was hoisted around the world. second, not only are we propping up one of the greatest human rights violating leaders in all of recorded history but we're putting our athlete ins a very difficult place

websites and on-line users or distributors of applications that are located in china, are owned by the ccp to disclose that location, or ownership to users, and both bills are very reasonable, as far as i'm concerned. for those asking why we didn't invite a witness today, in today's hearing, that had ties to china, to share their views, you should know we absolutely did. we used one of our witness' to invite tik tok to investigate. but unfortunately, they declined the invitation. i hope we can invite them in the future just as senators blumenthal and blackburn did. there were many questions left unanswered in that hearing in the senate last month on the stewardship of the platform and i'm confident that the panel today can shed light on our shared concerns. thank you so much for being here. there are very important matters our subcommittee is examining today so i thank the chair for holding this hearing again and i thank the full ranking member and to the witnesses, again, for being here today. we really appreciate it. i look forward to your testimony on these bills and other proposals we

they are far more afraid of working class in places like akron, ohio, than they are the ccp. elites will always protect other elites, even if it means looking the other ways on horrific practices and dangerous lives. it is all collateral damage to protect their own power base. it is necessary. many of them see the pandemic as more of an opportunity than a crisis. look at the millions of people who simply rolled over for the experts, reflexively wearing useless cloth masks and putting their arms out for a success of shots, regardless of their actual risk profile. this has been one of the scariest things to watch in my decades of covering politics in the culture, that compliance. globalists believe that covid is their best chance at taming the american beast and marshaling the world community to bypass their own national values on a number of pet issues. at the world economic forum this week, we see the seeds being planted to grow china's influence and minimize america's spirit >> we really need to continue our measures to climat. >> it highlights the need to address the deep-r

they have ccp members in keyboard positions.many of those organizations have direct control over decision making. despite that, american tech companies still continue do operate within china, and we allow them or companies with those ties to operate quite freely here in the united states as well. just this year microsoft was the victim of a chinese state-sponsored cyberattack. if you look at the number of job postings for microsoft in china, you get the feeling they're expanding rapidly in china. i think it's the concern of this committee what these u.s. tech companies are doing within china and what those chinese companies are doing here. for purposes of this hearing, i want to focus on what the ccp affiliated companies might be doing here in the united states. the ccp doesn't respect the rights of their own citizens. why should they respects ours? congress has a responsibility to ensure that american consumers are protected from these evolving threats. i think this can be accomplished. a number of you have said that today. if

the ccp, of course.aking of which, on the eve of china posting the games invasion in beijing some house or republican think it's a good time to go soft. the "washington examiner" reporting in a letter house minority leader kevin mccarthy and a bipartisan group of lawmakers, including 60 republicans, urged president joe biden's top trade official to expand tariff exclusions on chinese goods. [laughs] joining me now is former deputy assistant secretary of defense for strategic strategy and forced of elements under president trump. also the author of the strategy of denial. this doesn't seem like the right time to be taking economic pressure off china now that we just learned we had a $1 trillion overall trade deficit last year. your thoughts. >> great to be with you, laura. i think in general you're absolutely right, we should not be removing any leverage. i think what president trump and the administration that he led really shifted correctly on was understanding that this is not purely a commercial situa

they try to intimidate china's neighbors and help the ccp benefit from their civil military fusion andry to harm other nations that believe in open navigation of the sea ways. the rule of free trade, human rights et cetera. i've been satisfied with the back and foth and the three hours of billable work. now. >> thank you. i think we should be evolving toward a standard where certain types of work are not inexcusable if we understand the context as yours was. i think we should be moving toward a standard where all nominees for all national security affiliated responsibilities agree they would do no work for ccp affiliated organization in the future. i look forward to supporting your nomination. i appreciate the distinction you drew about domestic political extreism versus violent extremism and i know senator cornyn has more questions on that. sgla tlp are many of our colleagues as well as many businesses that still don't understand this. one of the critical reasons we appreciate so many senator who is have been part of the road shows as we make the case in classified setting to business

he raised more than some eyebrows when he says nobody cares about the ccp's genocide of the uighurs. palihapitiya is making these comments on his podcast. >> nobody cares what is happening to the uighurs. you bring it up -- >> what? what do you mean nobody cares? >> the rest of us don't care. >> you're saying you don't care? >> i'm telling you a hard ugly truth. of all the things i care about, it's below my line. >> the billionaire tried to walk back the comments. he's been criticized for lacking empathy. this is not the first time this has happened. the league has tip toed around comments made by players and executives supporting chinese dissidents like the uighurs and hong kong protesters. the nba has a huge foot hold in china. china is extremely popular there and the league has a large monetary incentive to keep the ccp happy. think of this. the cctv there has banned nba games from air costing the nba roughly $400 million. now, there's a statement from the golden warriors distancing itself from their minority owner that owns about a 10% stake. but choosing not to acknowledge the r

do you believe this is treason given the fact that the ccp is an adversary of america?, all i can say, maria, is i'm old enough to remember the cold war when we were combating the evil empire of the soviet union, and it's unfathomable to me that we would have tolerated at that time an american first family or second family, the vice presidency, doing business deals with russian businessmen who are business partners with the highest levels of the kgb. i don't understand why it's different for china. china has the same goals as the soviet union. they want to supplant us. so people, i think, in washington have to get serious about this. this is not a partisan issue, it's a national security issue. maria: yeah, for sure. and, of course, we've got the evidence right in front of us. this e-mail that we've reported on now for a few years, tony bob linskey, a partner of hunter biden at the time, we mails back and forth to chinese executives, officials saying here's how we're going to do the deal of oil company, 20% for hunter, it goes down the list as well as the partners and a

the ccp does not respect the rights of noncitizens, why should they respect hours printed in congressas responsibility to assure the american consumer's are protected from these evolving threats and i think this can be accomplished in a number of you said that if we can get a comprehensive a security bill through the protection of our citizens without sacrificing innovation and competitive nest in our nations technological fronts. and i like many of my constituents are very concerned about the amount of personal information it that is collected about any basic level of protection and specifically example is bgi, the chinese genomics giant in the activities instituted during the covid-19 pandemic, as sold many task is to the labs and also in secrecy to the government and individual states printed the lack of privacy standards of a test is that national security risk and i would like to know what concerns you most when it comes to protecting american's consumer data from foreign adversaries and what keeps you awake at night. >> thank you for the question of what keeps me awake at night

was he paying off people to say the narrative he wanted said, and is he protecting the ccp? sure, but all i know is that fact pattern seems to suggest that very point. i mean, they say it comes from a lab, that's where the evidence points. it suddenly changes, they wish 180 degrees, write the article. dr. fauci then uses that article to go out and tell the country, to tell the american people, frankly the world, no, no, no, it didn't come from a lab. so the big takeaway i have, maria, this is the pattern we see from the biden administration, from the left. this is the template they use. frankly, we saw it this past week. the department of education actually went to the national school boards association, asked them to send the letter so they have the pretext to go do what they wanted to do; namely, attack moms, dads and parents who are showing up at these school board meetings. jim comey did the same thing, frankly, a few yearing ago -- years ago. he knew the dossier was bogus, but it gave him the pretext to spy on president trump's campaign. fauci got the letter written by

the ccp's expansion of a book is multifaceted and largely reliant on international policy vacuums thatto continue. technology and global data collection, that trapping of developing countries and strategic expansion, exportation of humans for labor, manipulation of global markets, tackling these issues require coordination with our allies to set robust international standards. corrupt dictators rely on loopholes in our own laws and they use to money laundering and enrich themselves with kleptocracy. regarding technology, united states can assist our allies in establishing bodies like the committee on foreign investment to review the foreign transactions that prevent technology sales to authoritarian countries. i'm grateful to a joint parliamentarians from the tiny, european union andn united kingdom and launching the bipartisan interparliamentary alliance against kleptocracy. coinciding with the summit for democracy. to formalize the efforts of working together to combat corruption in kleptocracy that fuels dictators. through legislation such as the enablers act, which i'm grateful to

the ccp's expansion playbook is multifaceted and largely reliant on international policy vacuums that allow it to continue theft of technology and global data collection. exploitation of humans for labor , manipulation of global markets. tackling these issues requires coordination with our allies to set robust international standards. corrupt dictators rely on loopholes in our own laws that they used to money laundering and enrich themselves. regarding technology of the united states can assist our allies and establishing bodies like the committees on foreign investment to review transactions to prevent technology sales to authoritarian countries. i grateful to have joined for the materials from the united states, the united kingdom and launching an against kleptocracy coinciding with the summit for democracy. to formalize the efforts of working together to combat corruption and kleptocracy that feels dictators. through legislation such as the enablers hacked -- act. the united states puts forth a framework to incentivize the financial sector to address undermining democracy from with

topics in this committee, from meeting with civil society leaders to defending leader survivors of the ccp camps, your efforts included some of the most pressing issues on our planet. your efforts to strengthen issues with taiwan are incredibly commendable. we encourage you to do that. both the czech republic slovakiaand -- and slovakia recently weck ignite -- recently recognized taiwan's public minister. i want to hear more about standing up to the intimidation of the chinese communist party and what more the transatlantic alliance can do to stand united in the face of their coercive behavior. you faced subversive influence of the chinese communist party. when the proposed construction of a chinese university threatens to spread beijing's influence, you took a strong stand in opposition. i would like to hear what motivated you to take these stances and we encourage you to do that. you have spoken out on putin's north stream 2. gas must never flow through nordstrom -- nordstream 2's pipeline. firm opposition and clear recognition of the authoritarian threats are necessary to ensure freedom

as you said, parent company headquartered in beijing, you have to assume they are beholden to the ccpn this instance. the governance atmosphere of china. the 2017 cybersecurity laws say whatever private companies do, whatever data they ingest, however they interact is subject to the ccp when it comes knocking. i don't believe any american right should be on tiktok. there are social contagion elements right now and the secret sauce algorithm is crazily wanting user engagement. nine to 11-year-olds -- parents were surveyed. these parents said 30% of them are on tiktok. this is more than instagram. more than facebook. more than snapchat. when we think about the formation of our young minds in this country, we have to understand that white dance, a beijing -- bytedance, a beijing-based company, has their hooks and our children, and we have to act accordingly. >> you are saying 30% of their children are on tiktok. >> 30% of parents are saying their children are on tiktok's, nine to 11-year-olds in particular. >> i would say there are 30% i don't know what their kids are looking at, it is a

we must grapple with the implications of the ccp gaining control of information flows beyond china's close economic system. i have the following recommendations. first, the analogy of data is false and leads to bad policy. it assumes data is a finite state resource and efforts by both beijing and washington to board data from each other would only lessen national power, not increase it. instead, congress should mandate stronger cybersecurity protections and basic standards for what data can be collected and retained in a comprehensive federal privacy law to protect american data not just from sophisticated state hackers but also unrelated industry of data brokers around the world, trading and consumer data without transparency or control while comprehensive federal policy law moves slowly amid much debate, having baseline rules for the data broker district would close off prime target for exploitation now. currently, there is nothing in our regulatory structure that would prevent the chinese government from buying american citizens data. bans on chinese software applications will mak
