mike gallagher is correct that politics in the united states and taiwan are going to be an environmentke hard-line positions on china so they may not have the political need they do other times. i think at the moment the most important thing is the united states affirm a commitment to arm those that want to protect themselves and encourage allies to do more like japan to increase deterrence i don't see any inclination from the administration that they're serious about doing that right now and it's when they need to be moving. maria: that's why were questioning whether or not joe biden is compromise given the fact that he taken $10 million from chinese officials tied to the ccp we've been studying china on this program for many years and we know the ccp has been buying imports throughout the world so they have a premier spot in terms of trade because they own the port they've also been buying up farmland, you're traveling to south dakota this monday to meet with kristi noem and to address legislative leaders on china's governor. governor noem introduced a bill to create estate board tha

joining me now, chairman of the select committee on china, mike gallagher is here.it's great to see you this morning. thanks very much for being here. iwant you to connect the dots here for the pressure on keeping spending levels down, the pressure to keep spending levels back to 2022 levels, that's going to mean a cut in defense spending, you know that, at a time take that chinas is rising. how are you dealing with that on the select committee on china in. >> well, i would say i'm not willing to accept a cut to defense p spending at the outset. of course, it would of require hard tradeoffs and prioritization between spending but i have to make the case with the taiwans that army taiwan and modernizing our military is a sound investment and america can afford survival. the lesson of ukraine, it's actually more costly over time if you have a weak hard power posture because deterrence then fails, you find yourselves having to spend tens of billions of dollars on army allies or partners in the context of a war so he deterrence is always cheaper. that's the case we have

republican congressman mike gallagher of washington is the chairman of that new committee. now. welcome, mr. chairman. so look, a lot of government investigates china right now. we've got the pentagon does a military assessment, wall street and others all look at the economy of china. what's the value added for your committee? why have this committee? >> i think there are at least two areas where we can have a unique impact. one is elevating the urgency of the situation and communicating directly to both the american people and the chinese as to why they should care about this. for example, we on the arm service committee talk about helping taiwan defend itself but it is my observation that eve with a long way to go in terms of explaining why taiwan matters why should someone in northeast wisconsin care about cross straight deterrents in the indo pacific region. so explaining the why to the american people, communicating the stakes is going to be essential. also, for the very reason you mentioned that china is spread across multiple committee jurisdictions you need to have

one thing i agree with mike gallagher is that democracy is a messy process. this is the democratic process playing out. i just hope that at some point people recognize that we have to govern. this is not good for the institution. it hasn't happened for 100 years. people want to know in america we're capable of effective government. there's other countries that can't formed governments for months. that's not the united states of america. for the sake of the country and the institution, i hope we resolve this this week. >> neil: if you don't and this does drag on and in the past, in the last time, it dragged on for months. everything stops in this environment. some in the markets interpret that, congressman, that's fine with us. the democrats can't spend. the republicans can snap at each other. what do you think of that? >> i don't like that. neil, as you would acknowledge, we're a different country than the 1850s. we were still emerging. >> neil: i covered it back then and that vote went on and on. >> now when we sneeze, it affects millions of lives. when our

. >> host: i want to start with the chairman of that new select committee, mike gallagher, talking abouteed for the committee and the threats posed by china. just a little bit of what he had to say. >> we see in the aggression here at home where the party has stolen intellectual property, technology and industrial capacity, undermining our economy and good paying american jobs. it is here at home where the party's extraterritorial totalitarianism terrorizes chinese students studying at our universities and targets americans of chinese descent. and it is here at home where thousands of americans are poisoned each year by fentanyl precursors manufactured in china andin distributed to a complex chinese a money-laundering network. it is time to understand the urgency of the threat, it is time to reclaim our economic independence in key areas. the select committee will expose the ccp's coordinated whole-of-society strategy to undermine american leadership and american sovereignty while working on a bipartisan basis and with the committees of jurisdiction to identify long overdue, common sense
