Trump is talking China, not Panama: He has a way of talking about things and walking a few steps ahead of us

As usual, President Trump has a way of talking about things and walking a few steps ahead of us. Enter Panama and all the talk about Canada. In this case, the issue is China in Panama is a problem, to say the least, given the commercial and military traffic that goes through there.

Honestly, it's about time that we start pushing back on the role of China. According to Cristina Guevara, a Latin America policy analyst and writer, the time is now. This is how she put it:

Chinese investments, such as the $3.5 billion Chancay Port project, address concrete needs in Latin American countries, offering solutions that the U.S. has not matched. Its control over key infrastructure, like ports surrounding the Panama Canal, not only enhances trade logistics and fosters economic growth in the region, but also may pose threats for the U.S., amplifying concerns about Chinese military influence in Latin America.
The Chinese economic model, heavily reliant on state subsidies and underpricing, currently makes Chinese goods and investments attractive. Regardless of ideology, governments across Latin America, like Argentina under Milei, have engaged Beijing for trade and investment. The U.S. lacks similar state-backed enterprises but could leverage tools like the Development Finance Corporation, or DFC, more effectively.
The Chinese economic model may be unsustainable due to over-reliance on state subsidies, rising debt and an aging population. Internal challenges like slowing growth, unemployment, inequality and dissent could further hinder China’s global ambitions.

It’s true that the model is unsustainable but giving away loans and building infrastructure is a good way of spreading China’s influence.

So the Trump/Rubio team must be assertive in pushing the idea that it pays to work with the U.S. rather than China.

The money hungry Bidens sell out Americans to China.

NY Post ace reporter, Miranda Devine @mirandadevine reports: “More on the 2013 Beijing visit by Hunter and Joe Biden with President Xi, days before the VP’s son Hunter was given a ten percent---billion dollar stake---- in Chinese investment partnership BHR.” This is excerpted from Devine’s must-read first book on the Biden Crime Family of grifters, “Laptop From Hell”............ an expose of Hunter’s dissolute lifestyle.

“Chinese investments, such as the $3.5 billion Chancay Port project, address concrete needs in Latin American countries, offering solutions that the U.S. has not matched.”

So, Trump wants the US government to hand out $3.5 billion to build a port in a foreign land.

But it’s a loan. The ‘loan’ won’t get paid back.

If the Chinese wants to screw over countries around the globe, let them. I’m looking forward to the first edition of “The Ugly Chinese”.

“Mess with Taiwan, you lose the Canal.”

Dear Xi:

My sincere condolences on the loss of your Chinese Navy ships within a thousand miles of the US.

We were training Taiwanese pilots to use the new aircraft we needed to sell them in order to stabilize the dollar. They got it in their minds to fly the aircraft loaded with bombs to sink the ships of your navy.

We deported these criminals promptly to Taipei.

“President Trump has a way of talking about things and walking a few steps ahead of us. Enter Panama and all the talk about Canada. In this case, the issue is China in Panama is a problem, to say the least, given the commercial and military traffic that goes through there.”

With MAGA far less commercial traffic carrying Chinese goodies will go through.

Ukrainian drones have ensured that much of the Russian navy will never leave the Black Sea.

Taiwan, the Philippines, the Japanese islands and South Korea are unsinkable.

Biden’s three biggest lies about his family’s shady business dealings

Joe Biden lied from start to finish about his family’s influence peddling racket. He recently issued a sweeping pardon to his son, Hunter Biden, contradicting his repeated assurances that he would not interfere. This pardon may be one of the most comprehensive in U.S. history, encompassing over a decade of corruption. While some have drawn parallels between this pardon and President Gerald Ford’s pardon of Richard Nixon, the comparison falls short. President Ford aimed to heal a divided nation; President Biden is shielding himself and his family from accountability.

Unlike Corporate Media and Democrats, who sought to shield President Biden until his political future was doomed, observers of the Biden Crime Family’s corrupt practices are unsurprised by this latest contradiction. President Biden’s claim that he would not pardon Hunter Biden is part of a broader pattern of deception regarding his family’s business dealings in order to conceal his involvement.

At the start of this Congress, the House Oversight and Accountability Committee launched an investigation into Joe Biden’s involvement in his family’s business dealings. Despite stonewalling from the Biden Administration, we followed the Bidens’ money trail, exposing the 20 shell companies they set up to hide the shady foreign payments they received, all with Joe Biden at the center of the family business. Our investigation has exposed how Joe Biden lied repeatedly about his involvement in these schemes that enriched the Bidens to the tune of tens of millions of dollars.

Here are some of the biggest lies that we exposed during our investigation.

What are you talking about? Hunter and Biden didn't have 'a company' the ONLY thing they were selling was OUR COUNTRY.

YOU know that, right?

Doing business isn't the same as taking bribes - even the so called 'legal ones' like the ones that witch Hillary took - charging $10,000 A MINUTE for 'speeches' all over the middle east. Some of these countries had to hire an audience to make the 'speech' look like it wasn't the bribe it was.

Hubby Bill selling 'speeches' to corrupt African hellholes that were among the most corrupt countries in the world. People starving in those places but they can come up with $500,000 for a 'speech' that last less than an hour? Only a democrats and their stupid butt boys writing for the New York Times and Washington Post can't see the obvious. Well, and the bimbos of MSNBC who cover their little eyes so they can't see... So tell me about Jared, Kathy.
