undation started by the late President George H.W. Bush’s son, Neil Bush, bearing his name is being bankrolled by a firm linked to China’s communist government, known officially as the Communist Party of China.
A report by Axios revealed the George H.W. Bush Foundation for U.S.-China Relations, chaired and founded by Neil Bush, is raking in a $5 million grant from 2019 to 2023 from the China-United States Exchange Foundation (CUSEF), which has ties to China’s communist government.
Axios reported:
Tax filings covering May through December of 2019 show the Bush China Foundation brought in a total of under $1.2 million in contributions, meaning CUSEF’s donations would likely comprise a substantial portion of its revenue.
The Hong Kong-based CUSEF, run by the city’s former chief executive, Tung Chee-Hwa, calls itself “an independent, non-profit and non-governmental foundation.”
Tung is also the vice-chair of a Beijing-based advisory body that promotes the Chinese Communist Party’s political aims, which is chaired by a Politburo official who plays a leading role in Beijing’s “united front” global influence campaign.
In 2018 Reps. Henry Cuellar and Mike McCaul wrote to Texas university presidents warning of CUSEF’s influence on campuses in the state, noting the firm’s intentions are “to spread China’s political agenda, suppress academic debate, and steal vital academic research.”
A year earlier, Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies was blasted for taking funds from CUSEF to bankroll “a new endowed professorship in the China Studies department as well as a new research project called the Pacific Community Initiative.”:
While CUSEF representatives stress that it is not an agent of the Chinese Communist Party, the foundation has cooperated on projects with the the People’s Liberation Army and uses the same Washington public relations firm that the Chinese Embassy does.

Now, I acknowledge that the Democrats are superstars when in comes to Influence Peddling.
Hillary Clinton is having a cackle fit at this moment as she says: “Is that all you got, a lousy $5million?”
China has $4 trillion dollars in their account. Other than Trump, there is not other leader in American who is safe from being bought with that sort of money.
By using Trump as a shield.
Let’s hop President Trump is smart enough not to endorse P. Bush
Reagan’s biggest mistake strikes again.
Like all here, Im shocked!
Not a surprise.
Yep! They all purport to be patriotic, etc. when in reality they are ALL PURE EVIL in this and lots of other ways.
Yep to what you said!!
Also, yep to your tagline.
They made millions to billions off the oil in Iraq too. Probably as “silent partners”, etc. in one or more oil companies nationally and internationally.
It’s going to be interesting. Maybe someone should ask Trump about this?????? Would love to hear his response.
