Pretty much anything imaginable. Biggest thing is complete infiltration and takeover of that AFB, with more to come unless this madness is immediately dealt with.

That means, everyone in or associated with Texas’ governance, The State Capitol of Austin, and those entities that have moved their interests to Austin need to given the heave-ho or run out on a rail.

Guangxin is a former officer in the Chinese People’s Liberation Army and is the richest person in China’s embattled Xinjiang province as well as a ranking member of the CCP.

Texas will go perma-blue Red Star by 2024, if not 2022.

How Profitable is this?


As profitable as can be made with substandard equipment and construction - just like in mainland China. Expect it to fall apart in 3 years of so.

A US company would not build in backdoor connections to Mainland China nor use shoddy materials and equipment, therefore any kick backs and bribes would be commensurately smaller.

The article calls Guangxin a Shanghai Billionaire, what’s he doing in Far off XinJiang? ( I don’t even think he is an Uighur ).

Commiemala will give them everything they need as far as construction materials and of course access to U.S. military engineers, ships, planes, etc., including an indentured slave workforce made up of all those young folks that the U.S. military / or CCP, et al deems ineligible for service.

They’ll work them to death or they’ll shape up and shock up and realize that they’re either going to have to fight back or end up living the horrors of what the CCP is doing to people in mainland China.

“How stupid is this?!”

“...which would cripple operations at Laughlin Air Force Base if it were to be attacked or sabotaged in any way.”

Unless you know about them, it may be stupider than you think. Laughlin AFB is a pilot training base. Currently, the base uses the T-6 Texan II, T-38C Talon, and the T-1A Jayhawk to teach American and allied nation’s pilots to fly. None have weapons on board so the training is for basic flying, not combat. And even when they did have the 4080th SRW, they were there for reconnaissance and meteorological gathering along with signal and electronic intelligence flights plus collected air samples from nuclear above-ground tests. The 4080th left the base in 1962. The AETC hosts 12 major installations and supports tenant units on numerous bases across the globe. There are also 16 active-duty and seven Reserve wings. Why in the absolute world would Laughlin be a combat target? They’d be better off hitting Del Rio which is a known arts and humanities town. That would, at least, get Nancy Pelosi’s ear (if it doesn’t fall off).

Was it Khruschev who said, “America will sell us the rope with which we will hang them.”?

Hate to tell you this but the land was purchased while Trump was president.

There is no need for another power source in that area. There are windmills in Brackettville and Lake Amistad power dam.
