Officially back in 2019 Secretary of Transportation Elaine L. Chao represented the United States at the proclamation of the enthronement ceremony of His Majesty the Emperor of Japan.
While in Tokyo, Secretary Chao met with Embassy officials, including Chargé d’Affaires ad interim Joe Young, and paid a courtesy visit to Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at the Akasaka Palace. Between high-level bilateral meetings, Secretary Chao and U.S. Department of Transportation officials also toured Japan’s high-speed rail system at Tokyo Station.
The U.S. government had initially made arrangements to send Vice President Mike Pence to the ceremony on Oct. 22, in which the new emperor proclaims his enthronement in front of representatives from Japan and nearly 200 foreign countries. But it apparently gave up the idea in consideration of other diplomatic schedules.
Chao, who was born in Taiwan, served as U.S. secretary of labor from 2001 to 2009 and is the first Asian-American woman to be appointed to a president’s Cabinet in the country’s history, according to the Department of Transportation.
But something that caught the eye of the public in recent days is President Trump’s constant attack on the CCP.
Trump has repeatedly blamed China for the pandemic, dubbing COVID-19 the ‘China virus’ and blaming it for the outbreak, and the shutdowns, closures, and subsequent economic losses that followed.
And a video that surfaced recently is alleging about secret talks between Elaine Chao and the CCP VP Wang Qishan during the ceremony we mentioned above.
We can’t tell the context of the conversation but from the video, it looks like they are pretending to not be talking to each other. Video below:
In any case, Elaine Chao is U.S. Secretary of Transportation, having assumed office on January 31, 2017. A member of the Republican Party, Chao was previously Secretary of Labor under President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2009, she is also a wife of GOP leader Mitch McConnell.
That would be Elaine McConnell.
People talking without knowing what they said is damn meaningless.
Maybe she was sent so they could discuss something in Chinese, and not be overheard(understood) by press or other persons present?
Otherwise it was a rather low-level delegation to a very important event.
Chao getting her orders, while looking around in a very paranoid manner to make sure no one is watching. Someone WAS watching, but no one apparently cares. There’s more “evidence” of Chao being a CCP agent in this short video clip than there was of Trump being a Russian agent in 2.5 yearsd and $80 million in Mueller investigations.
This almost makes me angrier than any goddam thing I’ve seen so far: it proves the degree to which Republicans have been undermining Trump over the last four years-—as if any more evidence were needed.
It looks to me like she is politely listening but looking for an exit to get away from him. We’ve all been in that situation in social and business settings.
I’ve always figured McConnell was married into a spy family. And she keeps getting appointed to various cabinet positions. Incredible.
I look at all chinese people in the US in one manner, if you have a living family member in china you are a possible asset of the CCP.
My endocrinologist was born in China and she has lots of relatives back there. She probably transmits my blood sugar meter readings to the CCP, lol.
Bingo
you are correct .
millions of spies thanks to Kissinger
I so would like to sell popcorn at the hangings.
"Yes, yes - we hate him, too. But my husband has to play the game for a little while longer."
Maybe they were discussing the crispy duck they had. Or biden.
As of this moment the thread is up to 12 replies. So far you’re the only person talking sense.
Secretly discussing something right there in front of everyone! Horrors!
Now make up what was being discussed.
I’d like to sell postcards of the hangings.
“I’d like to sell postcards of the hangings.”
Wonder if they’ll have a waiting line for selfies...

Just like Main Stream journalists do.
“But something that caught the eye of the public in recent days is President Trump’s constant attack on the CCP.”
Interesting news tidbit but the author writes laughably.
