Dear Madam Speaker: (Dear Mr. President:)
Pursuant to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, I hereby report that I have issued an Executive Order declaring a national emergency to deal with the threat posed by the People’s Republic of China’s (PRC) increasing exploitation of United States capital to resource and to enable the development and modernization of its military, intelligence, and other security apparatuses which continues to allow the PRC to directly threaten the United States homeland and United States forces overseas, including by developing and deploying weapons of mass destruction, advanced conventional weapons, and malicious cyber-enabled actions against the United States and its people.
Through the national strategy of Military-Civil Fusion, the PRC increases the size of the country’s military-industrial complex by compelling civilian Chinese companies to support its military and intelligence activities. Those companies, though remaining ostensibly private and civilian, directly support the PRC’s military, intelligence, and security apparatuses and aid in their development and modernization. At the same time, they raise capital by selling securities to United States investors that trade on public exchanges both here and abroad, lobbying United States index providers and funds to include these securities in market offerings, and engaging in other acts to ensure access to United States capital. In that way, the PRC exploits United States investors to finance the development and modernization of its military.
The Executive Order prohibits certain purchases involving publicly traded securities, or any securities that are derivative of, or are designed to provide investment exposure to such securities, of any Communist Chinese military company. Those companies are ones the Department of Defense has listed, or will list, pursuant to section 1237 of Public Law 105-261, as amended, or are identified as Communist Chinese military companies or their subsidiaries by the Secretary of the Treasury using similar criteria. The Executive Order also prohibits transactions that evade or avoid, or have the purpose of evading or avoiding, its prohibitions.
I have delegated to the Secretary of the Treasury the authority to, in consultation with the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, the Director of National Intelligence, and the heads of other executive departments and agencies as appropriate, take such actions, including promulgating appropriate rules and regulations, and employing all other powers granted to the President by IEEPA, as may be necessary to implement the Executive Order. All agencies of the United States Government are directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the provisions of the Executive Order.
I am enclosing a copy of the Executive Order I have issued.
Sincerely,
DONALD J. TRUMP

EXCLUSIVE: Top Pelosi Staffer Registered As ‘Foreign Agent’ To Lobby For Chinese
●AUGUST 13, 2020
● BY NATALIE WINTERS
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.
PELOSI ACCOMPANIED BY DALY, PICTURED ON HER RIGHT
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 engagement” 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.

I’m far from an expert on matters military or political.
But if PDJT can, and hopefully will, defeat these putschits, doesn’t that inevitably lead us to to armed conflict with the Chicoms?
Given of course, that the Chicoms are behind Dominion and complicit in the fraud.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If President Trump hadn’t taken on the Chinese, America would already be in control of the Chicoms by now. Hillary Clinton had sold out to them and Bidens as well.
I’ve wondered about the armed conflict - can’t see China giving up assets in the US even though they deserve to lose them for trying a coup against our country.
With each passing day, the Chinese are less able to sustain that conflict and Trump has done a great job of realigning other nations.

Nationalize all Chinese holdings on American territory and cancel all debts as repayment for the China Flu alone.
The CCP is the greatest evil on the planet and must be shunned totally.
