to think that some knuckle head chinese communist party bureaucrat, some propagandist could go out and make a threat third in line for the presidency of the united states of america and travel her travel plans to travel to a country she wants to go see and visit. it is part and partial of a weak foreign policy an administration scared of its own shadow. this is less than 24 hours after the president is on the phone be with xi jinping? this suggests that that call went very poorly that xi jinping believes they can move about the cabin pretty darn freely they can't intimidate us. sign me up, it's a strange place to be, but i'm with nancy on this one. >> jesse: i'm with nancy too, even swalwell. i would be even eric swalwell if he wanted to spend the night taiwan and spend the night fancy fancy hotel and steak dinners. explain why you think joe biden did this. i believe it's because he is compromised. his son is come pro-mizeed. his brother and family. they have taken millions, everybody in the u.s. government knows it and he gets off the phone with the chinese and has this kind of weak r

the chinese communist party its poisoning our country. that's coming up next. dan: the chinese communist party, our biggest geopolitical problem is laughing at us right now. we had a dea agent on earlier in the show talk about how they are pumping these deadly chemicals fentanyl into our society. mass murdering hundreds of thousands of people. what are we doing about it? we have an open border. but it doesn't just end there. they have to be looking in our faces and mocking us as we self-destruct and they try to build back better. we are destroying our currency. inflating away the value of our dollar. if you were the chinese communist party and had a 12-step plan, here is how you guys will feet yourselves alive while we mock you from the outside, every box is being checked. debase your currency, destroy your military. do you think they are not watching some of the videos we are making our military watch now there are 762 genders. our military has a purpose. kill the enemy where the enemy tries to kill us. there is nothing the chinese communist party would love mo

here is another way to do it if i were the chinese communist party.l the united states you are floating on a sea of petrol, you leave that in the ground while you go overseas and genuflect. joining me to talk about it is the founder of "turning point usa," charlie kirk. none of this is by accident. fentanyl being produced over there is murdering hundreds of thousands of our kids. it's not by accidents. >> it's by design. you beautifully put it. this is an agenda of self-destruction. you look at what's happening in the military and look at what's happening to our corporations. a lot of it can be drawn back to the woke you ideology on campuses. that we no longer need to be the leader of the world. our military might and wealth is something to be ashamed much stems from the ideology on college campuses. they can't even believe how easy it is to get to us hate ourselves and destroy ourselves. dan: that's such a good point. they have to be watching this, how did the richest, most powerful country in the world that de -- defeated the nazis. how did we get t

our national security and to keep our economy competitive against global actors like the chinese communist party, and to lower rising costs for hard working families across georgia and across our country. now, i know there might be disappointment from some of my colleagues that we may not be able to pass the more robust package that we have been working on and negotiating since last april. and honestly, i share that disappointment, as both a member of the commerce committee and a member of the committee that's been negotiating the final competition bill i have been working hard to secure several priorities for georgia in that package and i'm not about to stop fighting for those priorities and i'm going to keep fighting to get investments and policies like fighting for regional tech hubs, or stem education. education program that invests in all of our children and all of our young people. and work force development passed into law, but let me be clear, passing a bill that will strengthen domestic production of one of our country's most vital resources, semiconductors or chips is a crucial opportu

more broadly we need to recognize with the chinese communist party is doing.verage across the world to coerce us into doing their bidding. a lot of times you seen over recent years people in the private sector in corporate america unwilling to criticize the chinese communist party because they do not want to use access to that market. they do not with the see the ccp leverage the weapon against them. that is the type of warfare we are in right now. a lot of this competition is playing out not just in the military domain but the economic and financial domain. maria: it feels like joe biden tiptoes on the cdp every day. look, i do not understand how this could happen. it wouldn't happen in china, that i can tell you for sure. they had deemed certain off-limits to foreigners but they will not allow informant to buy anything near any air force base that is for sure. and how china issued a warning to house speaker nancy pelosi after pelosi reportedly outlined her plan visit taiwan next month. that ccp says it will take resolute and forceful measures if she goes to

this week the chinese communist party literally threatened the united states.he u.s. should not get involved with china a's position toward taiwan saying, quote, those who play with fire or will get burnt. be clear-eyed. this after the ccp global state media threatened that the ccp could shoot down can nancy pelosi's plane if she visited taiwan. then the editor the massaged the wording. employees -- pelosi did not specify if she'll go to taiwan in her most recent press release. joining me now to discuss how this trip was managed and the threat of communist china is former director of martial intelligence john ratcliffe. john, good afternoon to you. thanks very much for become being here this morning. >> great to be with you, maria. maria: especially on very important subject that you will be all -- have been all over for several years, first in congress, then as director of national intelligence. your thoughts on trip of nancy pelosi's and how it was managed. will she go to eye wan? does she -- taiwan? does she need to? >> at this point she does need to go for

literally yelled at the chinese ambassador on the phone and told him in plain text that the chinese communist party had no right to tell the american speaker where to go. and where do they go, mister speaker, but now they are more belligerent and ours state department warns not to do it. this step. and i think that if we give back what our allies will think, so as not to be ready to accept this challenge to cry, it is precisely the same confusion that led to the fact that i drew the wrong conclusions about ukraine, we should clearly state our position, in part. that is why i then went. we had a difficult relationship with china in 1996 and 1997 . president pingdon and i decided to send a powerful signal, including sending american aircraft carriers into the taiwan strait. so she absolutely must go. i think

i remember listening to him on the phone quelling he a chinese ambassador and saying the chinese communist party does not dictate the travel of the american speaker. what we did have to do is we left china, went to japan, stopped briefly, then went to taiwan and went back to japan. we couldn't go straight. but when we said to the chinese communist, look, if you don't want me to come to china, that's fine. >> i will just go straight to taiwan and never come to china. they said'ly said no, no. we don't mean that but it will hurt our feelings. and i thought at the time. >> brian: but they are a lot more belligerent now and our defense department is warning her dependence it. i think if we back out, the message to our allies is we are not up to the challenge. >> look, it's exactly the kind of confusion that enabled putin to mislead himself about ukraine. we need to be very, very clear. this is part of why i went. we had a lot of tension in '96, '97. president clinton and i collaborated in trying to send very strong signals, including putting american aircraft carriers in the taiwan straight. i would

let's defund the chinese communist party. t, our politicians, academia, the sports industry, hollywood, you name it, that are absolutely drunk on chinese dollars. the chinese communists know it, xi knows it, and they're looking to win the economic war way before there's any type of military conflict. and we've got to wake up as a country, and this administration is totally asleep at the switch. if. maria: right. well, the leadership begins at the top, and the administration apparently is okay with unwitting investors investing in chinese companies tied to the chinese communist party that may very well end up turning around and fighting america. tom cotton has a problem with this esg agenda, and he says that he wants to investigate esg practices from groups like blackrock which he says have created a climate cartel to suppress investment in the fossil fuel industry in america, and that's contributing to $5-a-gallon gasoline are. your thoughts on the investments of american families and this federal fund having a wide open windo

because the chinese communist party has actively lobbied against this legislation. they know the bill is bad for china and good for the united states of america. the bill is about securing the country giving people the tools to flourish and to ensure that america continues its global research role. it's been a long journey to get to this point, but history will show that bypassing this chips plus bill, we are confronting the challenges of today and building a prosperous and secure tomorrow for all americans. i urge my colleagues to support this legislation. mr. president, i yield the floor. i have heard time and again my republican colleagues and a number of democrats voice their serious concern about the deficit and our national debt. we are told that because of the deficit, and at the time that we have the highest rate of childhood poverty of almost any major country on earth, we cannot extend the child tax credit to help working parents substantially reduce child poverty. at the time one over 600,000 americans are homeless and from 18 million families spending ha

and gone are condemnations of the chinese communist party for the ongoing genocide of the uighur minority. last year i supported an earlier version of this bill in large part because it included these very tough-on-china policies that i just mentioned that are missing from this piece of legislation that the senate will soon be voting on. but now these policies are out, and more spending is in. it includes more than $76 billion of subsidies earmarked for a single industry, the semiconductor manufacturers. semiconductors, or chips, are important, but that doesn't mean that we should write these companies a blank check. if incentives to encourage more semiconductor investment in the united states are necessary, they should be targeted. i understand the national security concerns, but simply mention the words national security isn't the understand of the discussion -- isn't the end of the discussion. proponents must show how she is subsidies will accomplish their objectives. these subsidies are not targeted at the production of advanced chips produced absolutely exclusively by our allies in a

the chinese communist party has been abusing the american people. they stole millions of our jobs. they have taken away intellectual property, stolen our secrets in our university. director wray has this right. the chinese communist party, not climate change, not white supremacist him, the present real risk. still they are probably incensed, the media as well as parts of the biden administration buffy "the abe mg there is a regional balance we are losing. we may have lost and abe being assassinated. >> prime minister abe was relieved the first and most significant asian leader to confront the chinese comet's party. it's hard when you are in their neck of the woods in the pacific. he was serious about it. he partnered with australia, the south koreans, the other allies and with us. to deliver a central understanding about the chinese communist party. he was fearless in supporting that we've lost a great leader who was willing to change the trajectory of japan's willingness to affect itself in that country and the region and is a real risk. whether it's taiwan or japan or the south-ce

i assume that musk will be happy to continue yielding to the chinese communist party with sharing data doing things like opening a showroom in a region in northwest china where upwards of a million muslims have been in concentration camps. i think we will continue to see similar behavior. the thing that would change it is if musk decides to be more heavily involved in politics and thinks it's just too much of a liability for me, but i don't see that is very likely. emily: this along with current -- with concerns about tiktok. and whether or not it shares with the chinese government, what is your take? isaac: i think what people need to understand, and it transitions to an even darker topic, but if the u.s. and china go to war over taiwan over the south sea or vietnam or any country in the region, all of chinese companies and u.s. companies will be seen as enemy combatants. the threat with tiktok is less that someone is using tiktok new jersey in the chinese common's -- is using tiktok in new jersey and the chinese coming as party is watching that in real time, but the way that data, th

the chinese communist party, let me make a distinction, would keep their word, and they have pretty comprehensivelyn their word, which is contained in an international treaty lodged at the united nations called thejoint declaration. you said at the time, you wrote at the time in the hong kong diaries, which you've just published, that, "ultimately, after the handover, "much will depend on whether the chinese communist party "can actually be trusted "to honour one country, two systems," which was the deal agreed. hong kong's former chief executive, cy leung, who's now vice—chairman of china's top political advisory body, said just days ago that hong kong's democracy is following the basic law and the principle that you agreed of one country, two systems. you're smiling. well, cy leung is, as the polls seem to suggest when people are asked in hong kong about it, is a pretty dubious piece of work, and whether or not he was a member of the communist party when i was governor is a matter of dispute. but he's certainly always been a supporter of whatever the communist leadership says. so you take anythin

think she should make clear in coming days that she won't be cowed by the threats of the chinese communist partyeen the long-standing position of the chinese communist party that they believe taiwan is theirs, and they have offered all manner of threats from entering the aircraft identification zone with their military jets in taiwan to threatening local officials that don't align themselves with the chinese communist party. so this is in a sense nothing new. i hope that speaker pelosi will continue with her bipartisan trip. otherwise, we're going to be inviting weakness and encouraging the chinese in the future to just threaten america to get their way. this is especially important as it relates to taiwan, of course, because in part for the reason that they produce so many of those high-end computer chips right now. the so-called fabs or manufacturing facilities for the chips that go into our aircraft, our ships, and many of our sophisticated computer systems, are made right there in taiwan. yet another reason, because of the vulnerability, that we should be reshoring much of this capacity. >>
