“The List” – Interesting and Quietly Overlooked Remarks by Secretary Pompeo…
The Conservative Treehouse ^ | Posted on April 12, 2020 | by sundance

Posted on 04/12/2020 7:14:04 AM PDT by vg0va3

With an increased awareness of how some U.S. politicians appear to be reacting to the COVID-19 challenges; and with a new American perspective toward the way media outlets, some businesses and many politicians appear to be influenced by China; it’s worth revisiting a recent speech by Secretary of State Pompeo that might have been overlooked.

Pompeo’s remarks were made to the National Governors Association (NGA) Feb 8, 2020; and there’s an interesting segment where Pompeo reveals his awareness of a list of U.S. governors compiled by China’s communist party; and their alignment with China’s interests. A transcript of the key excerpt from his speech is provided. WATCH:

This might make you wonder why some Governors were so eager to shut down private businesses and keep the Government open.

CHINA NETWORKING IN US——Did Joe and Hunter Biden help China compile “The Friendly Governors’ list”? ..............


Secy of State Mike Pompeo Says He Has List; American Pols Named as ‘Friendly’ by Communist China
pjmedia.com ^ | 2/9/2020 | MEGAN FOX

In a shocking speech to the National Governors Association, Secretary Mike Pompeo revealed that he is in possession of a list of American governors who have been listed as “friendly” by Chinese Communist infiltrators.

said he had received an earlier invitation from a former governor to attend a networking event that promised great “deal-making” opportunities with the Chinese government.

This networking event was run by “The Chinese People’s Association for Friendship in Foreign Countries,” said Pompeo.

But what the US participants might not have known is that “the group is the public face of the Chinese Communist party’s official foreign influence agency, the United Front Work Department.” Pompeo knew of this connection from his former position at the CIA.

He questioned the governors on how many of them knew that this group was a Communist-front group.

“What if you made a “new friend” at the China networking event?” he asked. “What if your ‘new friend’ offered to invest big money in your state, perhaps in your pension fund, or make a Chinese invest in an industry sensitive to our national security?”

And then Pompeo dropped a huge bomb on the crowd.

“These aren’t hypotheticals. Last year a Chinese government-backed think tank in Beijing produced a report that assessed all fifty of America’s governors on their attitudes toward China. They labeled each pol friendly, hardline, or ambiguous.”

Pompeo continued, “I’ll let you decide where you think you belong, someone in China already has. Many of you, indeed, in that report, are referenced by name.”

Most of the gubernatorial attendees probably had “D” after their name. And there were likely a few RINOcrats in the mix of betrayers.

Everyone should watch this video, the more you read about China the more you realize how much they have infiltrated our society...and it’s clear what their ultimate goal is.

So true.

China is in deeply invested in US media, entertainment, academia, obviously state and local governments, healthcare.

The question is how do we flush them out?

“ China is in deeply invested in US media, entertainment, academia, obviously state and local governments, healthcare.”

Invested...this is always how their thick spreading of money is termed. As if they were going get stock dividends from their investment...I prefer straight language, it tells the tale so much more than newspeak does: they have bribed, made players in key positions in media, entertainment, academia and health care - and obviously politicians and their families - extremely wealthy, personally wealthy with those bribes. They don’t “invest”, they buy people, buy propaganda and buy political loyalty with personal money. America isn’t getting an investment, it’s being sold out by its own people and it’s own institutions.

This is treasonous greed.

I just looked up my state Maryland and found this

“Maryland governor signs investment, education deals in China”

California

“California public pension fund invested in blacklisted Chinese companies”

Ann Archy @7: "I want NAMES!!"

You want NAMES?!? Some of the names of those who attended the May 22-24, 2019, fifth U.S. China-Governors Collaboration Summit in Lexington, Kentucky, sponsored by the National Governors Association, include: Kentucky Governor Matt Bevin (who hosted the traitorous event); and Tennessee Governor Bill Lee. Others included Lieutenant Governors Cyrus Habib of Washington, Garlin Gilchrist II of Michigan and Dianne Primavera of Colorado.

Of course this treachery was sponsored by the National Governors Association.

It's not a pretty sight. No wonder some of governors are acting like little Hitlers or Hitlerettes in ripping up the Bill of Rights for the subjects (formerly called citizens) in their states. These governors should be held in the lowest possible esteem.

MA Governor is a “Republican”:

Mass. Gov. Charlie Baker is an anti Trump RINO.

In our last election I left the Governorship slot empty.

We have so few Republics running in this state, some of the socialist, communist American haters drift into the Republican party for a seat at the political table.

It seems sometime the choice for a republican is do you want a socialist or a communist to represent you. -Tom

“I think everyone would like to see that list”

I think we can pretty well guess... correctly.

Interesting that the names are not released, not offered, not even requested by today’s propaganda industry (er, news media) .
That ABCNNBCBS ignored it I do expect. But nobody else?
