to congress, who's the chair of the congressional asian pacific american caucus. >> i think that judy chu that if she was an intelligence committee member this week, that kevin mccarthy would be taking her off the committee. >> do you think congresswoman chu should be looked into? >> i think everyone standing out for chinese communist parties should be looked into. yes, i question her either loyalty or competence, if she doesn't realize what's going on. and she is totally out of touch with one of her core constituencies. i think she has dragged along the other chinese american members to sign this letter. but i do think she is the ring leader. and i'm fairly disappointed and shocked that someone like judy chu would have a security clearance and be entitled to confidential intelligence briefings until this is figured out. >> joining us now is california congresswoman judy chu, the first chinese american woman ever elected to congress, and of course the chair of the congressional asia-pacific american caucus. congresswoman, thank you for being with me tonight. i'm sorry that it had to be un

>> i would like to say i'm hoping that the chairman will echo my sentiments with regards to judy chund the attack on her. we can't go that route. again, the chinese communist party loves it when we are internally fractious and they like it when we are stereotyping. we have to avoid that and we have to hold the chinese communist party accountable for specific activities and deal with those. >> i think he asked you to call one out. >> let me say, we should not question anybody's loyalty to the united states. i think that is out of bounds. it's beyond the pale. if there are concerns about a specific organization and as a matter of fact the china council for the promotion of peace unification is tied directly subordinate to the united front work department at the ccp we should work with our colleagues to apprise them that they might be tashtsz for ccp united front work, i'm a counterintelligence officer. we are a soft target in congress, but absolutely, we shouldn't question loyalty. going forward what's critical and the reason we got the committee renamed to focus on the chinese communi
