Blinken tells CNN the US has seen evidence of China attempting to influence upcoming US elections

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said the US has seen evidence of Chinese attempts to “influence and arguably interfere” with the upcoming US elections, despite an earlier commitment from leader Xi Jinping not to do so.

Blinken made the comments to CNN’s Kylie Atwood in an interview Friday at the close of a three-day to trip to China, where the top American diplomat spent hours meeting with top Chinese officials including Xi, as the two countries navigated a raft of contentious issues from US tech controls to Beijing’s support for Moscow.

Blinken said he repeated a message President Joe Biden gave to Xi during their summit in San Francisco last November not to interfere in the 2024 US presidential elections. Then, Xi had pledged that that China would not do so, according to CNN reporting.

I have to assume that what Blinken is upset about is not that the Chinese are interfering in the election, but that that there is evidence of it, since Blinken’s masters will benefit from China’s interference.

Maybe it’s just a little lover’s quarrel between the Biden regime and the CCP. Maybe Biden’s feeling like he’s being taken for granted. The thing is, Biden has already submitted to his CCP masters. You don’t get to change your mind at this stage in the game. I imagine China has a number of points of leverage on which they can force Biden back into line if he takes this too far.

Anyone ever think of the fact that if we voter ID an paper ballots then it would real hard for anyone to cheat. And includes other countries messing with our system. It is all intentional.

So why is Blinken yammering to CNN about China meddling?

Maybe it's because China is NOT meddling (and Biden's polls have hit new lows) that Blinken is yammering. Reverse Psychology tactic.

All of the powers "meddle." The Biden gang is trying to blame Netanyahu for Oct. 7, in hopes of replacing him.

One of their favorite tricks is to accuse Trump of "foreign interference." I will be surprised if they don't try that.

Same basic scam but there is always a new twist. Maybe they will restrict FOIA requests this time? They never get punished but sometimes leaks make it harder to fool the voters who are not brain dead.

The leftist narratives do seem to be coming apart now.
They went way too far in too many ways.

Open border being overrun.
Tranny everything everywhere.
Insane level of persecution of a former President.
An obviously senile old fool in the WH.
Street crime is getting really crazy.
Inflation is real and it’s kicking people’s butts.

Conservative political junkies like us can name a lot more things but what’s listed above is obvious to everyone and doesn’t need any additional proof.

I hope you are right. I am afraid that too many people are gullible. We will see what happens.

It is Bibi’s fault. His intelligence people ignored the warnings. But every major attack has been blamed on the chief exec of the country involved, from Pearl Harbor through October 7. People find it comforting to think that someone is in control, for good or ill, so conspiracy theories will always have currency.

G-d is in control of everything. October 7 or something very similar, was foretold by Rabbi Yonatan Eibishutz over 300 years ago.

Same reason Clinton was accepting money and deals with the Russians while making up the BS story about Trump-Russian collusion.

It’s projection. Typical rat behavior.

Paper ballots are super easy to cheat with, Democrats had fraudulent elections with those mastered since Tamany Hall.

The main problem now is absentee/mail in voting, falsified registrations, unmaintained registration records, and motor voter laws.

They backed Al Gore, too. High donations from impoverished Buddhist monks and gardeners.

With all the Save Ukraine (for the MIC) business and the hoopla against Russia in the aftermath of the prior Russia! Russia! Russia! squirreling that has been going on, the Democrats DESPERATELY NEED another election squirrel to hide the cheating they’re planning for this November.

Americans are tiring of the repeated Russia! Russia! Russia! song and tired of the needless spending it brings with and Democrats are looking for a new “Papa’s Got a Brand New Bag” one. IMO, this stinking traitor is just the first of many.

YOu mean China wants TRump too?

The CHinese do not want a destabilized America that has nuclear bombs pointed at it.

Trump means a stable America. Thats what Xi wants.

Blinken is all upset that China is “interfering” in favor of Trump. Blinken is upset.

Blinken must be out of the loop in the DNC. China seems to be a major contributor to the DNC...
