House Republicans and Democrats on Tuesday joined forces and voted overwhelmingly in favor of a new committee to examine U.S. strategic competition with China, after House Speaker Kevin McCarthy declared on the House floor that neither Republicans nor Democrats trust China anymore.
"We spent decades passing policies that welcomed China into the global system," McCarthy said. "In return, China has exported oppression, aggression and anti-Americanism. Today, the power of its military and economy are growing at the expense of freedom and democracy worldwide."
"It didn’t start under this administration, but the current administration has clearly made it worse," he continued. "Its policies have weakened our economy and made us more vulnerable to the threat of the CCP [Chinese Communist Party]."

Fine lip service….
The era of being PAID by communist China, however, will carry on…
I’m really surprised that the RATS turned on the ChiComs.
The one thing China does not have is WOKEISM. Our HR departments in the US are full of scum attorneys who force unqualified job applicants to be hired and then the same attorneys make impossible to fire the same unqualified people!!!! As bad as China is can anyone blame companies from relocating from the US?
Back this up with action and I’ll be impressed.
Time will tell.
The Democrats always lie, and fools like you always believe them. The reality is, the Democrats cannot afford to do away with China.
The days of trusting the US government are clearly over….
“I don’t like the name, Select Committee on China Competition, “
Maybe giving it a relatively innocuous name made it easier to get some RATs on board.
And I’d be looking at those who voted against it so see how much $$$ they’re getting from China.
Yup
“The House voted, 365-65, in favor of creating the committee, which was supported by every Republican and more than two-thirds of the House Democrat caucus.”
“Sixty five wouldn’t bite the hand that feeds it.”
You are so right !
Thanks, for pointing this out. Those 65 are potential china infiltrators.
When and why would trusting Communist China ever be a good idea?
You're right. Should be Select Committee on China Threat
Good God. Are they for real? Who in their right mind would trust ANY communists, never mind these bloodthirsty variants that think nothing of murdering millions of their own citizens?
Our war with Japan was about economics.
The Marine Corps general Smedley Butler wrote a book in the 1930’s
“War Is A Racket”
He said in that book regarding his military service:
“...I spend most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers..”
Bipartisanship! Against Brandon’s sugar daddy, too.
