There have been efforts to sue and admonish China for its role in the coronavirus spread...The congresswoman from the Saint Louis region, Ann Wagner, says she is taking an approach that is more realistic in a bill she filed last week to take away Chinese-owned assets in America. The proposed Compensation for Americans Act directs the President to employ a series of measures including creating a public repository of Chinese assets and holdings in the United States, imposing travel restrictions on Chinese officials and medical equipment suppliers and removing China from its status in the United Nations and the World Bank.

Downloadable summary linked to the story. Not sure whether "creating a public repository" actually means permanently taking assets. Sounds more like holding them hostage for compensation of victims and certain behavior changes.

Average Americans are waking up to the infiltration, theft and treason. Everyone needs to support this. Send the message. America is NOT for sale!

China has untold numbers of these 'Ghost Cities' where there are massive complexes - sitting empty! My only hope is that a few dozen Democrats are exposed by selling American land and assets to the Chinese. *Cough*Hillary*Cough*

Trump needs to also revoke visas for Chinese students because they all report to the CCP and are using what they learn to give ammo to the Chinese government to destroy the USA.
Lots of stealing of our intellectual property.

It’ll die in committee and never see the light of day. Pelosi still runs the show there.

we also need to shut down all of the Confucius centers in schools.
They are just propaganda centers to subvert out youth.
This whole thing is designed to make Hong Kong just like the rest of China, with no freedom.
Next they will try to take back Taiwan.
Trump needs to start diplomatic relations with Taiwan on an official level and declare it a Sovereign Nation COMPLETELY separate from China.

This is not even a beginning. Proposal is all show and no go. Directs POTUS to arrive at a bilateral agreement with China. Sure-that’s the ticket.
Sounded good. But not.

Partner, this is exactly what the Chinese Communists do all the time. In fact, Russian and Cuban Communists do the same thing.
This is why we keep saying that the Chicoms steal, copy, lie, and cheat all the time against America.

Partner, you got that right!
In fact, we need to start diplomatic relations with Taiwan now and declare it a Sovereign Nation, which is completely separate from China.

Yank their MFN status.
Kick them out of the WTO
Revoke every single visa held by a Chinese national. Give them 7 days to leave US soil or face arrest as spies.
Place a 100% Export Tariff on everything they buy from us.
Place a 100% Import Tariff on everything we buy from them.
Resume full formal diplomatic relations with Taiwan.
Those will do for a start.

The on-going takeover of Hong Kong is just the prelude to the same exact action that will be executed in Tiawan, unless President Trump shuts China down in Hong Kong. I bet that something like this will be announced in the next few days. I foresee a threat of nuclearization of Tiawan by President Trump to accomplish this.
