‘Red-Handed’: 23 Former U.S. Senators and Congressmen Who Lobby for Chinese Military or Chinese Intelligence-Linked Companies
Breitbart ^ | 31 Jan 2022 | SEAN MORAN

Posted on 01/31/2022 7:51:09 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

Breitbart News senior contributor and Government Accountability Institute (GAI) President Peter Schweizer’s latest investigative exposé, Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, reveals how 23 former U.S. senators and congressman have lobbied for Chinese military or intelligence-linked companies after leaving office.

Many lawmakers cash in after leaving office by becoming lobbyists for corporations and other special interests. But one would hope that they would not become advocates for America’s primary economic and political adversary — communist China — by lobbying for outcomes that run counter to the United States’ long-term interests.

However, Schweizer’s book reveals that many former congressional leaders, committee chairman, and rank-and-file members are lobbying for Chinese intelligence and military-linked companies.

The following 23 former members of Congress — the majority of whom are Republicans — have lobbied for Chinese military or intelligence-linked companies.

...

John Boehner (R-OH), Sen. Tim Hutchinson (R-AR), Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen (R-NJ), and Rep. Albert Wynn (D-MD), Rep. Ed Royce (R-CA), Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott (R-MS), Sen. John Breaux (D-LA), Rep. Jeff Denham (R-CA), and Rep. Bart Gordon (D-TN), Sen. Norman Coleman (R-MN), Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-CT), Rep. Jon Christensen (R-NE), and Rep. Connie Mack IV (R-FL), Rep. Don Bonker (D-WA), Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-FL), and Rep. Lee Terry (R-NE), Rep. Jack Kingston (R-GA), Sen. David Vitter (R-LA), Rep. Toby Moffett (D-CT), and Rep. Rick Boucher (D-VA), Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), Rep. Charles Boustany (R-LA), Sen. William Cohen (R-ME).

Consider who it is that’s leaking the list. But it’s bad no matter who does it.

........very informative article that helps Americans understand WHY we have the UNI-Party’s boot on our throats.

Namely, nothing patriotic Americans want gets done anymore because both parties are equally corrupt resulting in the Chinese having more influence in the halls of Congress than the American people.

Most of these creeps are lawyers and they will argue...”I’m not doing anything illegal”. That’s the point!

Since Chinese are people of color, Schweizer must be a racist.

From Biden on down we have many many traitors.
No wonder they wanted to get rid of Donald Trump.

That is why Trump had to beat both halves of the Republocrats to win the White House - and why they in turn obstructed his agenda and removed him from office.

Heh. That nails it.

Other wealthy interests likewise come ahead of the American people.
