The Bank of China is one of the four biggest state-owned commercial banks in China

**

The Foremost Group is a privately held, family-run shipping company based in New York City,[1][2][3] with subsidiaries registered in the Marshall Islands... Foremost has had most of its ships built by China State Shipbuilding, some of them financed by loans from the state-owned Export-Import Bank of China. In 2015 it began construction of the first freighter jointly financed by banks in both the People’s Republic of China and Taiwan; It was founded in 1964 by Chinese-American immigrant James Si-Cheng Chao and his wife Ruth Mulan Chu Chao.

Its chair and CEO since 2008 is Angela Chao, the sixth daughter of the company’s founders; The company has come under scrutiny due to perceived conflicts of interest involving Elaine Chao - daughter of its founders and sister of its current CEO - and her husband Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. Additional attention has related to Elaine Chao’s role as Secretary of Transportation - which regulates U.S.-registered cargo vessels - in the administration of President Donald Trump.[4][19][15][20] In 2020, the company received a forgivable loan valued between $350,000 and $1 million under the Paycheck Protection Program, designed to help small businesses that would be otherwise unable to remain solvent during the COVID-19 pandemic.

**

The China State Shipbuilding Corporation (CSSC) is the largest shipbuilding conglomerate in the world. Headquartered in Beijing, the CSSC handles mostly shipbuilding activities in China.

From wiki


Just because someone is from Taiwan does nor mean they are not well connected to interests on the mainland; Chinese are typically conservative, but not politically. Mainland CCP fingerprints are all over the place with Mitch and Chou

I knew about mitch and his connection to shipping, but I really thought 'connel was on the up and up. I was tricked by his speedy judicial nominations

with this latest request to 'not object to the elector vote' that is the last straw.

with two exceptions, no more donations, no more money, no more anything to anybody that has an (R) anywhere in their title..

exceptions are Boebert and Lamborn, if you want to know

I know, but in the current context, it has added significance and urgency.

” It’s like the Mafia is running the government”

When WIllie Sutton was asked why he robbed banks, he said because that’s where the money is. Piker! It’s the US federal government that’s where all the money is. Trillions.
The mafia is little league compared to DC.

More drips

Peter Schweizer's book, "Secret Empires," detailed Mitch and Elain Chao's connections to China several years ago.

Gina Haspell is the target of the Democrats because she is the one on whose watch the interrogation records of al Qaeda key terrorists were “lost” in order to protect the interrogators, depriving the Democrats of the information they sought to expose the real interrogators in the hope of going up the line to an impeachment of Cheney, or in hope of some dirty moves to subject the US to the globalist Intl Criminal Court.

BUT Haspel was the station chief in the UK from which the fake dossier oozed out of the ‘retired’ UK spy. And she was there when the supposed intel from an Aussie dip was sent through on the ‘not Carter Page’ minor player in the Trump campaign advisory. Haspel should not and cannot be trusted during what is coming soon to a nation near you.

Before Nov. 3 I was unhappy with some aspects of the Republican Party. Every day since then my opinion has dropped further. Your valuable post has already fulfilled today’s quota for ticking me off at the GOP.

A traitor who is compromised by his Chinese connections is the head of the US Senate. Did some form of vote fraud put him in that position? Demonstrably, Mitch McConnell does not serve with honor and integrity. Time to start perp walking the traitors out of the US Government!

According to some nutjobs she was also present in the supposed ‘raid’ on servers in Germany, whe she was supposedly killed or whatever.

The problem FR [and Trump] has been having for years now is that conservative supporters eat up without question or suspicion anything and everything that fits their expectations, and reject anything that doesn’t, just as much as the lib base does, and with the same results- emotional, not rational, responses to every isolated sound bite, like zealots hunting witches. Rarely if ever do people post their sources anymore, and when they do it’s often some nutty source that would have gotten them laughed off the forum years ago. 22 years ago freepers challenged everything, especially if it seemed too good to be true, if it seemed to validate their own beliefs. Now, they mindlessly repeat disinformation put out by groups like VIPS, Antiwar.com, Alex Jones, Infowars, and even Lyndon LaRouche’s groups in a vain effort for validation, perhaps because there are almost no real news sites anymore, and in their absence people cling to anything they can.

When I suggested McConnell wife is connected to communist China I was told that she was Taiwanese and a principled conservative.

If the CCP can infiltrate our corporations, universities and all layers of government, I see no reason to assume that someone's passport reading "Taiwan" is some sort of magical shield against ChiCom influence.
