Pelosi Stonewalls Bill That Would Crack Down on Chinese Influence in U.S. House Dems block bill to crack down on regime-sponsored Confucius Institutes

House Democrats are blocking a bill that will curtail the influence of the Chinese-government-funded Confucius Institute, stymying bipartisan legislation that unanimously passed in the Senate.

Despite bipartisan support in the upper chamber, House Democrats—including a cosponsor for the bill—voted against placing the CONFUCIUS Act on the agenda in late July, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) has yet to announce plans to place the bill on the floor. If passed, the legislation would require all federally funded universities with Confucius Institutes to assume "full managerial control" of the institutes, a move that would limit the Chinese government's influence over the program.

Frustrated by the lack of action, congressional Republicans are blaming Pelosi for blocking debate for the bill, criticizing the House speaker for putting politics over national security.

She doesn't want to tick off her owners, after all they did do much for Democrats by releasing Covid.

Medusa Stonefaced more like it. Where’s Hillaryous?

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

I saw Hillaryous the other day once again demanding Biden does not concede “no matter what”. They whine that Trump won’t leave the White house if he loses but here this cow is telling Biden not to concede. Good, don’t concede. It doesn’t mean he will be President

No wonder she’s so crazy they use lead in everything.

[antidemoncrat]

I’ve often wondered how many members of Congre$$ have sizable $$$$ invested in China.

[faithhopecharity]

[GOPJ]

The Chinese are a money tree for democrats...and a money tree for their financial backers...

PELOSI AIDE A REGISTERED FOREIGN AGENT FOR CHINESE INTERESTS;
A PAID “STRATEGIC COUNSEL” TO CCP CENTRAL TV NETWORK

PELOSI ACCOMPANIED BY DALY, PICTURED ON HER RIGHT

BRENDAN DALY, FORMER COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR FOR NANCY PELOSI ......AND A POLITICAL APPOINTEE OF THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION....... IS A REGISTERED FOREIGN AGENT WHO PROVIDED THE CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY’S PREMIER STATE-RUN MEDIA OUTLET CHINA CENTRAL TELEVISION NETWORK WITH “STRATEGIC COUNSEL” AS IT EXPANDED INTO THE UNITED STATES, THE NATIONAL PULSE CAN REVEAL.

During his tenure as Executive Vice President at Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide, Daly secured a contract between the lobbying behemoth and China Central Television Network (CCTV). Specifically, the firm helped the state-run propaganda outfit CCTV expand into American homes by “providing strategic counsel, identify relevant parties to communications activities, and media relations to support the launch of CCTV America.”

“Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide will work with CCTV America to communicate to the American public that CCTV America will provide compelling, comprehensive, and balanced news programming from an Asian perspective that is relevant to a global audience,” the 2012 filing in accordance with the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) noted. Per CCTV’s FARA registration, however, the outlet is “supervised, owned, directed, controlled, financed, and subsidized” entirely by the Chinese Communist Party.

Email correspondence from Daly identifies him as taking the lead on the account, as he spoke with CCTV’s American representative on the phone. He also provided the outlet with a memo detailing Ogilvy’s strategy on the count, detailing how to best bridge the gap between American homes and Chinese Communist Party propaganda:

The memo, sent from Daly, outlines how Ogilvy would provide CCTV with comprehensive support, including “influencer” and “media relations support,” to achieve the “overall message that CCTV Americas is the source for business news in and with China, with credentialed, experienced and trusted journalists doing in-depth stories and reporting.” “We are excited about the prospect of working with you to help establish CCTV Americas as the program to watch to succeed in an interconnected global economy,” the email concludes.

CCTV has been identified by Freedom House think tank as a “long-standing weapon in Beijing’s arsenal of repression” whose mission “is to attack designated enemies of the Communist Party,” chiefly the U.S.--snip--
