by that ccp today.roughly 24 out of 24 times there in the simulation they would fail to successfully invade taiwan today and gaps exist in their capabilities to do what german xi jinping has commanded the people's liberation army to be able to be by 2027. talk about some the gaps are today that chairman xi jinping is trying to address on his side? >> congressman the pla the people's liberation army has been receiving massive amounts of investments that increase by double digits in many years. precisely to try to fill gaps they would need to fill to successfully invade taiwan. that is we should be working to prevent is an invasion. include amphibious lift two at all right it's the of missiles pointed at taiwan. that is very scary. countries barely submit to airstrikes alone. this other things we need to do to get people, soldiers on the ground and equipment there. helicopter lift is another key area. also the capabilities designed to keep us out of the fight long enough. cracks in your testimony you quot

this subcommittee heard have ccp is leveraging confucius institutes programs the ccp claims are meant for language learning and cultural exchange at u.s. universities and colleges to recruit american scientists and researchers to promote military silver fusion, suppress chinese dissidents who are studying on american campuses. there's even evidence the ccp's utilizing nontraditional intelligence collector such as chinese academic researchers to commit espionage in the u.s. homeland. we learned the ccp is orchestrated the theft of anywhere between 225 and $600 billion in in the in the actual property annually according to the commission on the theft of american intellectual property. one of the witnesses the former director of national counterintelligence and security center put this into perspective for us explaining that that equates to nearly 4000, $6000 per american family of four after taxes. subcommittee discussed the imminent threat to the ccp poses to use cybersecurity and critical infrastructure as well as its efforts to undermine american economic security. furthermore, we he

it is not change the ccp calculus.estion to the panelist is, what further actions must we take to truly alter beijing's decision-making? how do we also raise his profile in the international community? this is of the magnitude where it has to be the united states and our friends and allies around the world. please, give us your perspective on how we heighten the sense of urgency on this issue and how we bring to bear the forces necessary to confront this evil? >> think you representative for that question for el briefly started to an incredibly important point to respond to a level of threat that is currently facing the uyghur people we knew global and coordinated strategy parade that has been missing thus far for their needs to be greater coordination for the targeted sanctions that exist. also the import restrictions. this should be a process efficacy are then put in place to beat task to collect intelligence specifically to that and be sure that respective parties. we could also be working to share intelligence with

that can't be trusted and it is clear that ccp quick cares really about the ccp.hearing we learned about the threat to our country and how they operate counter to our american values. and our second they learn we learn a lot about how they don't care about their own people and are exploiting slave labor and now we're learning they don't keep the promises that they make or the promises that they break. so let me -- ask you all tonight and we're going to go rapid fire since i know we're short on time but about commitments that we have heard from ccp and i'll address and if you'll answer -- but did china live up to their end of the phase one trade agreement particularly when it comes to imports of u.s. goods? >> no. are we all in agreement here? that's -- that's resound no. okay what about commitments on stopping rampant theft of american innovation has ccp lived up to those agreements? >> so i would say -- no -- but they have made an effort in certain areas but -- overall you would say no. >> it has been reduced. the joke in the industry was that they already had st

america at its best can outwit the ccp. your team once found francis bacon one of the founders of science identified three revolutionarytechnologies in his time : printing, gunpowder and pulled it. tell us what are the three most revolutionary technologies of our time, which country is leading in those fields, the united states and china and how do we win and those three fields . >> i'm of a soybean fan. i approve that message. so there are many candidates for your answer is is a i and i want him is old world commutations and scale that is beginning to score us as somewhat but not very far ahead might even be even what china has done is lost is that entangled to and when they arrived 2000 miles away which is an extraordinary achievements. the us has not done that yet so that's the answer a i, more reason to think there's more people were on a conversation is almost that is very and in synthetic biology we made for all you, you should understand biology means will grow any of the things we manufacture today. growing is obvio

and then, the second question is about the ccp. you've now adjusted john, but i would like others to comment as well. what do you think about this? that term ,c the first is chinese and -- the first see -- the first c is chinese and the second c is communist. it feels problematic as well. i'm interested in whether people think that is problematic or whether it's ok to say ccp. >> i can say for the first part one thing to recognize is that while those of us in this room might be quite knowledgeable on u.s. china relations for instance, that doesn't necessarily speak for the greater american population. while something may seem somewhat mildly inflammatory for those of us in washington dc, it may be consuming this rhetoric on a daily basis. we may get desensitized to it. for the average american, what i mean is people outside of d.c., for lack of a better term, they are hearing this in the context in their lives. they are hearing it and that is now what they think of. the danger of using inflammatory language, if it's not very inflam

is happening in a small town in northwest arkansas, this is happening all over the country and the ccp connection at highest level of our government, this corruption, you hear the left and media scream about connection between russians and trump. joe through hunter had been connected to the keystone, corrupt ccp money running up and down the family and you ask the question, what were they paying for? what were they getting in return for funneling this money? again, unless there are consequences and things come to a head where members of this biden crime family face serious prison time, there will be absolutely no consequences, no reform, no hope for change temperature cannot come from dc, it has to come from red areas. >> ashley: jake bequette, thank you for your time. fox news alert, terrorists on the fbi watch list arrested just two days following the end of title 42. >> todd: agents apprehending migranting, including 31 chinese nationals. lucas tomlinson has details. >> lucas: critics say the president claims the border is getting better. record-setting week leading up to title 42's

the ccp and km k were fighting their own civil war. however, as people started thinking about the postwar settlement, it suddenly occurred to people in taiwan, people in the united states, and the ccp, who controlled taiwan would be important. one person involved in this was franklin roosevelt and his conception of the postwar order, that the great powers would work together to maintain peace and security. and this would be done through naval quarantines and air bombardment, so it became very important. so it was automatic for him to say taiwan should go back to china. chang kai-shek had a similar view, that taiwan was one of china as fortresses, one of the gateways guarding china from foreign aggression. it was much better for the republic of china, the communists were last to come into agreement on this but once they did, they were ferocious as tigers in defending that view. >> we will fast forward to a lot of taiwanese history. remind us how the taiwanese gained a seat at the table through democratic reforms and how fundamental a sh

both of these companies are military companies who work for the ccp. and both are listed on the entities list. if bis continues to mindlessly greenlight sensitive technology sales, the ccp has proven they will use our own inventions against us. look no further than the recent spy balloon which the administration allowed to fly over us. it has been reported western-made components were found in this balloon. that is on top of the recent hypersonic missile test which circled the globe and landed with precision. this was only possible through u.s. technology that was sold to them. this should be a wake-up call to all americans. i stand ready to work with the administration and with the democrats on this panel to strengthen our export control systems where needed and why i launched a 90-day review of bis. we are also falling behind on the ideological battlefield. congress appropriated $325 million to the state department to counter ccp's malign influence around the world. but instead that money was used to fund bakeries in tunisia, electric vehicle chargin

supply is a security issue and we want to make sure that our agriculture land is not compromised by ccpluence. >> ashley: catherine walden, florida state representative, cosponsor the bill and join me now. thank you for getting up with us now. tell us how this bill protecting americans and those who immigrated here. this bill does not discriminate, people testified that said it does. what is your message to them? >> thank you for having me, ashley. this bill certainly does not discriminate against any resident or citizen who is here and we have made this clear in the text of the bill, first and foremost. this protects floridians, we can see in new york there were two who were arrested and charged for conspiring to act as agents of the ccp and spying and harassing chinese residents over here lawfully for speaking out against anything that would undermine the ccp. this bill is protecting residents in florida. >> ashley: a part of this bill bans is thes of russia, iran, syria, and venezuela from owning land within 10 miles of a military base and airports and power plants, are these just pr

started a petition on change.org for the ccp to release someone from prison.osition back to her, and china located her parents and made them call the daughter here in the u.s. to take down the petition or face it, and she fears the ccp has infiltrated the company or hacked their data. >> so what you are saying here is that the chinese government was somehow able to hack into change.org to find your email and then to locate you. >> yes. i don't have evidence to prove that, but that's my best guess. >> because in your mind, there's no other way that the chinese government could have known that that petition -- >> is from that email, yeah. it's so creepy, so frightening because like you never know, even if you are in america, a free country, you still have to worry about your safety. >> now, we have reached out to change.org and they have not responded. despite threats, she and her other pro democracy dissidents will continue to try to speak out against the communist regime. the chairman on the select committee of the ccp tells fox this, incumbent on congress and

one woman here in the united states says she is afraid for her parents' lives after the ccp came down on her for starting an anti-government petition online and talking exclusively to fox about her ordeal. bryan llenas live in the newsroom with more. tell us more. >> the woman agreed to speak to us, to fox news channel despite the fact that there is an ongoing threat of punishment that she and her family face from the chinese communist party. she started a petition on change.org calling for the ccp to release a pro-democracy activist from prison. somehow they traced the petition back to her. chinese agents located her parents in mainland china and made them call their daughter in the u.s. to take down the petition or face punishment. she complied. she says change.org failed to protect her identity and she fears the ccp has infiltrated the company or hacked their data. >> so creepy and frightening because you never know even if you are in america, a free country, you still have to worry about your safety. >> we have reached out to change.org and they have not responded. the woman says

before the ccp first reported cases of covid-19. also knew the ccp was preventing journalists investigate a global health authorities from accessing the wuhan institute of virology. they also knew that started in 2016 well before this, so the wuhan institute of virology was researching the bat coronavirus with the closest relationship to sars covfefe two, 96.2% similar. the wuhan institute of virology is publish published res gain to function research. and the state department memo also said that the u.s. government determine the wuhan institute of virology collaborated, collaborate on publication and secret projects with the ccp military since at least 2017. and you you know what else we know? we know that dr. fauci at the come into, in many age funded through a grant eco-alliance with a gain of function research. we know that for a fact our government pay for it, our taxpayers unfortunately unknowingly paid for it. so we know all this to be true and we know what was going on at the wuhan institute of virology. mr. lowenthal, which

the ccp has proven they will use our own inventions against us. look no further than the spy balloon that they allowed to fly across much of the continental united states. it has been reported western made components were found in this balloon. that is on top of the recent hypersonic missile tests, which circled the globe and landed with precision. this is only possible for u.s. technology that was sold to them. this should be a wake up call to all americans. i stand ready to work with the administration, and with the democrats on this panel to strengthen our control systems. we are also falling behind on the ideological battlefield. congress appropriated $325 million to the state department ccpcs malign influence around the world. but instead, that money was used to fund bakeries in tunisia, electric vehicle charging stations in vietnam. and at the same time, of the ccp continues to invest large amounts of money in developing countries, building bridges, roads, ports, and energy infrastructure. all the while, growing their influence over the peop

it is important to be clear here that our adversary is the ccp, not the chinese people, or people of chinese descent, living and working in the united states. i'm very glad mister durham, that you made it very clear that this hearing should not be about chinese americans that could not sit in the searing. if this was an attack on asian americans, chinese americans, and we have seen the rise in hatred. i've been defensive much. well, that's probably because the world has noticed what has been going on over the past few years. americans of chinese does that have been targeted on ethnic base is innocent. people have had their lives destroyed. scientists have decided it would be better to work elsewhere. the department of justice is china initiative ended up being a big disaster. members of congress even came together for a letter that they sent denouncing racial bias. but yet, the anti china hysteria continues, perhaps a bit more cautiously. we now have a lot past in florida, banning chinese citizens from purchasing property. the new law for bids, any non us citizen whose domiciled is c

how did the ccp and kmt, why did they not consider taiwan particularly important initially and then how did that change? >> while it was something of a non-issue inin the 1930s because japan owned taiwan and the republic of china government acknowledged that and had a consulate on taiwan. they were fighting their own civil war. however, as people started thinking about the postwar settlement it suddenly occurred to people in taiwan people in the united states and the ccp that who controlled taiwan would be important. one person involved in this was franklinas roosevelt and his conception of the postwar order was that the great powers wouldd work together to maintain peace and security and that this would be done through naval quarantines and air bombardment and so islands becamend very important and so it was automatic for him to say taiwan should go back to china. there was a similar view. he felt taiwan was one of the chinese fortresses. it was one of the gateways that was guarding china from foreign aggression and it was much better for the republic of china to have taiwan than to no

so far it's just been the ccp running the show, running the table here. to push back and what should that pushback look like? >> well, that's exactly the right way to ask. what should the pushback look like. what we're doing right now is the only pushback we're having is militarily. what we're not doing is engaging diplomatically and economically on those very issues you're talking about. under no circumstances should american business be handcuffed to operate only on chinese terms. the problem is, that you have all these ceos going you just mentioned over there and certainly lots of others because they want business but we've got to say, hey, look, there's got to be limits here to where you can't just do whatever you need to make money for your own company at the expense of the rest of the business of america. we've got to be pushing back more on those terms that's going to be on our terms torques not just chinese terms. maria: all i can say is there were enablers to nazi germany as well back in the 1930s and 1940s and today i'm just questioning whether

it's been the ccp that started the economic war.playbook right now from the house foreign affairs committee because let's be clear about the g-7. the g-7 was largely a meeting of seven countries who were trying to figure out how to react to china's economic coercion. and yet you have here china having appearing to have the upper hand. they've got to have a dinner at the white how with gina raimondo to try to thaw things out. why are we on the losing end that it appears the u.s. did something. it wasn't the u.s. that sent a spy balloon into the country and sent military secrets back to beijing in real-time. >> you hit on the key word which is react. unfortunately, that's what a lot of our leaders for way too long have been doing. we shouldn't be bashful about working together with our allies. the president vastly overstated how much unity there was among the g-7 in dealing with china challenge after all, there's been a pretty significant struggle among the g-7 to get things right with russia over the last couple of years. we're not r

the threat from china is complex and asked the ccp is actively trying to undermine the economy and security of the united states. threats and vulnerabilities to the homeland pose by the people's republic of china and counter evolving threats from the ccp now and into the future. so once again, we have members of the us congress meeting on capitol hill to discuss a supposed threat from beijing. the notion of a vast chinese conspiracy against our american way of life and precious bodily fluids never seems to get old. however, you will notice a certain theme and the comments of some of the lawmakers. it is important to be clear here that our adversary is the ccp, not the chinese people or people of chinese to send living and working in the united states. i'm very glad mister durham, that you made it very clear that this hearing should not be about chinese americans that could not sit in this hearing. if this was an attack on asian americans, chinese americans, and we have seen the rise and hatred of been defensive much. well, that's probably because the world has noticed what has been going on

instead, the threat from china is complex and as to the ccp is actively trying to undermine the economy and security of the united states. threats and donor abilities to the homeland pose by the people's republic of china and counter evolving threats from the ccp now and into the future. so once again, we have members of the us congress meeting on capitol hill to discuss a supposed threat from beijing. the notion of a vast chinese conspiracy against our american way of life and precious bodily fluids never seems to get old. however, you will notice a certain theme and the comments of some of the lawmakers. it is important to be clear here that our adversary is the ccp, not the chinese people or people of chinese descent, living and working in the united states. i'm very glad mr. durham that you made it very clear that this hearing should not be about chinese americans that could not sit in this hearing. if this was an attack on asian americans, chinese americans, and we have seen the rise and hatred of been defensive much. well, that's probably because the world has noticed what has bee

i'm feeling that way once again the ccp set to surveillance bullet across america and was able to send to beijing in real time and there was no response from the u.s. we'll see what happens tonight with the dinner, your expectations. >> i don't think we should expect any deep change in the u.s. china relations at the end of the day liberty set up the competition that were in and they seek to surpass us we know all the aspects of the strategies and objectives. in the u.s. is it making broken session just to talk to adversaries and that's where they want us to go and they don't like the idea further sanctions on china and they want to trade that for the ability to talk to them and it's important to have channels of communication. we have that with the soviet union and at the same time were way behind from having a real competitive strategy. were not a strict investment to china and export control regime has a lot of holes in it. we are still allowing the treating relationship to blossom when it should be scaling back with reduced dependency a lot of talking out a whole lot of action. it'

. >> todd: there is something to be said for the ccp to use these operations to destabilize america and americans as part of the belton road initiative to take over the world. i want to follow-up something you said, you said a lot of this is not just funded by cartels in china and mexico, by powerful individuals in the united states. what do you mean by that? can you give us examples? >> we know some investigations here in oklahoma from the farms tracking the money, plants and workers, we unpack layers of fraudulent paperwork and start linking names and led us to ties to other states along the east coast and west coast to individuals already on the u.s. radar seen as national threats and national security threats specifically. certainly you're concerned funding from the criminal organizations in oklahoma are going to fund other activities linked back to the government, whether from china or mexico and as i said, we've identified criminal organizations linked to russia, bulgaria and armenia in the last few months. >> ashley: scary. >> todd: shows how organized and orchestrated this, keep

as she's looks at us come of this ccp looks at us, they laughed. they say, you don't know who you are. you are addicted to us. you are addicted to the fentanyl that we will pump across your border. 50 times the number of people who died on 9/11 each year. you are addicted to us. you are addicted to digital fentanyl in the form of tiktok and you are not going to do anything about it. you are addicted to financial fentanyl and you can't stop spending. let me see you separate from us. that is what they believe. but we can do these things if we actually rediscover who we are. it is going to involve sacrifice. i will be honest. but it's like my parents taught me, you can make that sacrifice, we can make that sacrifice, if we know what we are sacrificing for. that is the thing we call america. if you think on the timescales of history, not quarterly earnings reports and election cycles, a little more churchill and a little less chamberlain, we can do the hard things. abandon the claimant cult while leaving china untouched. hold china accountable for the

not the ccp. and we must also -- [applause] we must also support our allies. our allies who share common values, common values of dignity and freedom. in fact, we must welcome economic cooperation with trusted international companies and countries, building a shared and robust economic future. together. as you know, last week, i signed an executive order to establish a virginia trade office in taiwan. i also met with leaders in japan and south korea to fortify a new relationship in building these trusted supply chains, in factors that are critical not just for our economic future but to our national security future. we must advance to peace -- through strength, and our choice is clear. our results prove that our common sense policies wrapped in conservative values work. we do not have to rely on who yells the loudest to win. you see, we can win with result s. and by communicating a message of hope. these results, and these messages are not just republican values, they reflect virginia and california and american values. we together represent hard-working ameri

this policy not only attacks our personal freedoms, but it plays into the hands of the ccp. you see, it's forcing and uneconomic shift into another industry that is dominated by companies control by the chinese communist party. the legislature did last year come together to pass a bill preventing the sale of virginia farmland and s real estate to entities controlled by foreign adversaries. [applause] we should own the rich agricultural lands that god has blessed us with, not the ccp. and we must also -- [applause] we must also support our allies who share common values of human dignity and freedom. in fact we must welcome economic cooperation with trusted international companies and countries building a shared and robust economic future together. as you know just last week, i signed an executive order establishing a virginia trade office in taiwan. i also met with leaders in japan and south korea to fortify new relationships in building these trusted supply chains in sectors that are critical not just to our economic future, but to our national security future. we must advan

, we don't have any evidence that a the he mentioned covid-19 is escaping the wuhan lab and why the ccpovered it up i, we have no evidence that he's actually pushing back on surveillance of america like that spy balloon, and we have no evidence of him bringing up the issue of intellectual trade theft as well. why not? >> well, why do you think, maria? i mean, we've now got, you know, evidence, black and white evidence, bank account evidence that joe biden and his family got paid off by the chinese. we now know that the biden-penn center, which is where the people from the obama administration went, the think tank they went to to before they then joined the biden administration, that was bought and paid for by the chinese government. so it's not just joe biden, it's the all the people who work for him now, tony blinken and others, who were paid for by the i chinese government. your not going to call china into question. and to think that they're going to the this meeting and they'll all talk about all the important things, they're not doing anything about it. i mean, the french president
