It’s about to get canceled!!

Some years ago I was listening to a radio station and they were interviewing a guy who wrote a book about how the Chinese will takes us over. One thing he said really stuck with me. He said we think in terms of a quarter of a year. Everything we do relies on quarterly numbers and that is how we judge success or failure.

The Chinese think in terms of a quarter of a CENTURY. Slow and methodical. Bits at a time.

Then-VP Biden toasts China's XI. "Here’s why I’m toasting this Chink. My view for many years is that a rising China is a positive development, and that the Biden family can become billionaires as long as we Democrats force American taxpayers to invest in Beijing’s success. Some anti-globalists see China’s growth as a threat, entertaining visions of a cold-war-style rivalry or great-power confrontation. Other Chinks worry that our aim in the Asia-Pacific is to contain China’s rise,” Biden wrote. “I reject these views. “I remain convinced that a successful China can make our country more prosperous, not less,” he added.

====================================================

Yet, underneath all the Biden sucking-up rhetoric about the ennobling virtues of globalism was some very parochial and familial profiteering. In 2013, Joe and his son Hunter Biden flew on Air Force Two to China. China’s BHR Partners was founded that year and included Hunter Biden as a board member. The Delaware Board of Trade was incorporated in 2013. Despite its name, the DBOT was not a government agency, but a penny stock startup which received a $3 million loan from New Castle County.

After Joe's wet kiss to XI, the big Chinese partner in the BHR arrangement was Harvest Fund Management which, coincidentally enough, in 2012 was targeting Hollywood with an $800 million investment fund. That same year, you could find Bruno Wu, who had been working with Harvest, and Chris Dodd, along with Harvey Weinstein, playing roles at the Asian Film Summit in Toronto.

And the money didn’t just go one way. The Delaware Board of Trade was incorporated in 2013.

Despite its name, the DBOT was not a government agency, but a penny stock startup which received a $3 million loan from New Castle County. (Delaware is Joe Biden’s home state which he repped as a US Senator.)

New Castle County had approved the issue of $15 million in revenue bonds to fund the DBOT “stock exchange” by touting the “globally recognized leaders in the financial services industry” running it. DBOT’s founders included people with experience in stock exchanges and financial services, and Dennis Toner, who was described as a “top aide to Vice President Joe Biden.”

Toner, Biden’s deputy chief of staff, is in the news for denying that Tara Reade ever told him anything. Reade’s decision to tell Toner and Ted Kaufman was a pretty poor one. Both are longtime Biden men and considered as close to the boss as family. And they’ve reaped the benefits of that closeness.

After Obama won, Ted Kaufman was temporarily appointed to the Senate. If there was anything odd about appointing a Biden advisor to sit in the Senate, it became odder when Senator Kaufman delivered the opening statement in favor of Toner’s appointment as Post Office Governor, by vouching for his “loyalty” working for Joe Biden. Tara Reade might as well have taken her complaint to Biden, as to Toner and Kaufman. The current New Castle County exec has since called DBOT’s founders criminals and threatened to sue after the company was disposed of as a “distressed asset” in exchange for shares of Ideanomics. Ideanomics is a Chinese crypto company trading as a penny stock and the software that served as collateral for the loan has been described as worthless. The chairman of Ideanomics is Wu.

The manager of DBOT-I LLC was listed as John Hynansky. The car dealer is a Biden pal with extensive Ukrainian ties who had lent Biden’s shady brother half a million dollars and had received $20 million in government loans to start a Porsche luxury car dealership in the Ukraine. Biden’s vaunted foreign policy expertise has consisted of sucking up to broker deals between Biden family members, donors, and foreign interests. These deals haven’t been good for America, but they’ve worked out very well for members of Biden's crooked family, as well as assorted donors, camp followers, and the local boys.

==================================

But Biden's biggest deal was helping broker the Chinese takeover of the American entertainment industry. Xi’s visit to Los Angeles hit on all the right cultural notes. He schmoozed Hollywood bigwigs and their errand boys, like Dodd and Biden, he watched a Lakers game, and cheered Obama’s 100,000 Strong China initiative to have a hundred thousand American students study in the Communist dictatorship.

“I can say with confidence my visit has been a full success,” Xi declared.

In China, culture serves the agenda of the Communist government. Unlike the Russians, who struggled vainly to stem the impact of American culture, their Chinese counterparts decided to control it at the source. Biden was a key figure in negotiating the terms on which the PRC would control Hollywood.

In 1962, the Manchurian Candidate depicted an effort by Communists in China, Russia, and elsewhere to kidnap and brainwash American soldiers. The modern remake replaced the Communists with a corporation and the Chinese doctor with a South African geneticist. China could not be offended. While Biden, Katzenberg, and Xi were partying at the Marriot, human rights protesters were calling for freedom, and being arrested by the henchmen of a one-party Democrat city and state for their trouble.

Even while Biden was falsely claiming that the Hollywood sellout would improve human rights in China, the rise of China was already violating human rights in America. Now, as Chinese drones fly over American cities, police stalk empty streets, social media monopolies monitor every single phone, and Democrat officials dismiss the Bill of Rights while locking up millions of people, our rights are gone. And Joe Biden is the Manchurian Candidate who long ago sold out the country he now seeks to rule.

CIRCA 2011

SOURCE https://thenationalpulse.com/news/biden-video-ccp-intrusion-us-government/

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has said he welcomes Chinese intrusion into
“all levels of [U.S.] government, classrooms, laboratories, athletic fields and boardrooms....even the military.”

The Biden comments – unearthed from a 2011 Sichuan University speech – demonstrate either a fundamental misunderstanding of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), or outright collusion with it. The former veep stated at the time: “In order to cement this robust partnership, we have to go beyond close ties between Washington and Beijing, which we’re working on every day, go beyond it to include all levels of government, go beyond it to include classrooms and laboratories, athletic fields and boardrooms.”

Biden, 77, even advocated for closer ties between the U.S. and CCP on the military front: “…that’s why it’s also important that our military leaders work together, get to know one another — not just our political leaders, but our military leaders.”

Biden takes this reckless approach to the private sector, too: “The United States should undertake to make it easier for Chinese business people to obtain visas to travel to the United States. It takes much too long for that to happen.”

During the 50-minutes he spoke,Biden expressed support for granting China increased access to high-tech U.S. products: “Already, we have made thousands of new items available for export to China for exclusive civilian use that were not available before, and tens of thousands of more items will become available very soon. That’s a significant change in our export policy and a rejection of those voices in America that say we should not export that kind of technology to – for civilian use in – China. We disagree, and we’re changing.”

critics are right to oppose exports of this nature: they often have military applications and can end up in the hands of the CCP. And despite his insistence in the speech trade with China “supports hundreds of thousands of jobs in America” and insists “it’s in our mutual interest in each of our countries to promote that exchange,” the nearly 4 million jobs lost in under 20 years due to China’s predatory trading practices such as currency manipulation tell a different story.

China’s exports have even harmed American lives: Chinese toys are made with toxic lead paint; Chinese fish are carcinogenic due to the country’s polluted water; Chinese candy has been contaminated formaldehyde; and Chinese drywall is made with radioactive material.

Biden, however, insists: “I believed in 1979 and said so and I believe now that a rising China is a positive development,

The Chinese collapse is coming. And, when it hits it will be faster than the collapse of the USSR.

And, everyone will lie and say they saw it coming.

The Chinese have no experience in foreign involvement. They think every group of people will respond like the Chinese. So when they try to colonialize an African country, they discover Africans don’t respond like they thought they would. The first time some Latin American dictator takes over a Chinese facility, they won’t know what to do.

Also remember their armed forces are made up entirely of only children who weren’t able to avoid military service.

By this writer is right on top of things.

Was this published in 1995?

Today? Really?

[angmo]

Thank God, Xi is as dumb as he looks. China is falling apart. His Belt and Road is a complete disaster.

You can’t do Mercantilism, otherwise known as Gunboat Diplomacy without the gunboats.

These African countries are laughing at his predatory loans.

The economy of China is now about one-third larger than that of the US.

The Chinese military is growing stronger and will not lack for funding.

China's Communist Party Has a Long-Range Plan to Overtake the United States

Khrushchev said the same thing 60 years ago! Took a long time, but it seems to be happening now!

[PIF]

Since the headline and the story do not match - here’s the story:

The Five-Year Plan, reportedly replete with a suite of policies and economic and social development goals, is still pending pro forma scrutiny and final promulgation by the Chinese parliament at its annual session next spring.

But a renowned scholar believed to be among President Xi Jinping’s top advisors has hinted about Beijing’s view of the nation’s economic outlook for the next five years.

Justin Lin, aka Lin Yifu, head of the Peking University’s (PKU) National School of Development, told a forum in Beijing on Wednesday that the economy could ride out the geopolitical headwinds and keep expanding at 6-8% annually for the next ten years.

Lin, a former deputy governor at the World Bank, was quoted by Xinhua as saying that China had turned the corner in its fight against Covid-19 and amid the current testing times may take an unassailable lead over major Western economies in terms of economic recovery and in nurturing emerging new high-tech industries.

He said China was well-poised to press its advantages as one of the world’s largest markets with well-rounded, full-stack supply chains.

In August, Lin was invited for a seminar presided over by Xi at Zhongnanhai, where the top leader sought policy recommendations from respected academics for the 14th Five-Year Plan’s drafting.

Peking University professor Justin Lin is believed to be among President Xi’s top economic advisors.

“Lin’s policy proposals featured predominantly in previous five-year plans as well as in annual work reports of the central government. He was indeed the first scholar to speak during the August meeting convened by Xi,” a professor at the PKU’s School of Governance told Asia Times on the condition of anonymity.

“Lin’s upbeat take on the health and prospects of the Chinese economy may mean a positive tenor of the upcoming plan for 2025, which may lay down an annual GDP growth target of around 6% between 2021 and 2025,” the PKU professor said.

Li Junru, a deputy director of the Central Party School which grooms senior party cadres, told China News Service that the goals contained in the new plan, as well as its implementation guidelines, could determine if China has a head start in its new “Long March” toward realizing Xi’s visions and ideals by 2035.

The official communique of the just-concluded plenum revealed that Xi had also teased the 400 attendees with his expectations for the next 15 years, though the document did not specify the leader’s aspirations. It is widely rumored, however, that Beijing aims to leapfrog the US in gross domestic product (GDP) and economic power by 2035.

A Bloomberg analysis suggested that Beijing’s GDP goal of surpassing the US in annual economic output could be achieved in five years.

Li said the next five years would hold the key to how quickly the party could bring Xi’s 2035 vision and his “superpower China” ambitions into reality.

Xi earlier scrapped the Chinese constitution’s two-term, ten-year limit on the presidency and as the chief secretary of the Communist Party he is not subject to any cap on his years in power. Some suspect he will remain in office for ten to 15 years, well into the 2030s.

Others are more skeptical of the five-year plan’s broad ambitions.

Johnny Lau, a Hong Kong-based current affairs commentator who has covered Chinese politics for decades, noted in a recent column that the latest Five-Year Plan could be the most consequential one since Beijing started setting out five-year development goals in the 1950s.

“The geopolitical context of the new national plan is significantly worse, compared with the situation back in 2015, when Beijing still enjoyed amicable ties with the United States under Barack Obama,” Lau said.

“The new plan has to take into account and reflect the shifting and deteriorating world order and adjust - basically lower - original growth goals amid the current crunch time.

“Xi’s main rubric for discussion at the plenum, other than deciding on the plan, could be about how to grapple meaningfully with the US-led containment in the next five years and, while contending with the challenges, turn the adversity into an opportunity to whip up more nationalism among the masses and thus entrench the party’s rule.”

You’re on drugs. The real Chinese economy is more like 1/3 the size of the US. Maybe 5/8.

Their military is a joke and their navy is mostly kitted out fishing boats.

[angmo]

Also, their population is 3x the size of the US. That means it is 15x less efficient.

It is a basket case that is going through a famine right now. They also have paltry supplies or oil, gas, coal, timber and fresh water.

[Theoria]

We still have a trade deal with china. Even after covid, fun camps, stealing tech, spying, etc. Not much has changed.

[mosesdapoet]

Americans better WISE UP/
Key swamp demons were making fortunes when they allowed US companies in a number of industries including pharma, computer; and electrical as well metal fabrication components even bicycles relocate their factories in China . To the point where China was our sole supplier. The money the CCP has now comes from US .If we play our Chinese checkers right we can really turn things around for the better not only here but in China as well.Check out this recent posting in Free Republic.com which the MSM and social venues will spike; http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3890312/posts

[angmo]

Sorry. Their population is 5x the US.
