Yesterday The Washington Free Beacon<\/a> posted an article about some comments made by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) on Thursday. Senator Feinstein described China as “growing into a respectable nation.” That is the same China that engages in slave labor, forced sterilization, religious persecution, and re-education camps. Sounds real respectable.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

“We hold China as a potential trading partner, as a country that has pulled tens of millions of people out of poverty in a short period of time, and as a country growing into a respectable nation amongst other nations. I\u00a0deeply believe that,” Feinstein said during a Senate Judiciary Committee meeting.<\/strong><\/p>\n

She said that stripping foreign sovereign immunity from China would be a “huge mistake” and claimed that allowing individuals to hold China accountable for the spread of the virus could allow other countries to do the same to the United States.\u00a0Her firm defense of China comes after a new flood of\u00a0reports<\/a> showing human rights abuses perpetrated by the Chinese government. The Chinese Communist Party has organized the mass detention and forced sterilization of Uyghurs, a mostly Muslim ethnic minority, and drone footage showed blindfolded and shackled\u00a0Uyghurs being forced onto trains.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Feinstein made the remarks during a Senate Judiciary Committee meeting debating a bill<\/a> that would allow individuals to sue the Chinese government for its release and subsequent cover-up of the novel coronavirus.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The statement actual makes sense when you consider something else reported in the article:<\/p>\n

Feinstein has also benefited<\/a> from her husband’s relationship with China. She pushed for expanded trade relations with China as her husband’s company was partnering with business ventures in the country. She said that a “firewall” existed between her political career and her husband’s business interests.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unfortunately Senator Feinstein is not the only Congressman with financial ties to China. Senator Mitch<\/b> McConnell<\/b> (R-KY) is married to Elaine Chao. Her family owns a large shipping company in communist China. Does anyone believe that you could operate a large shipping company in communist China without the approval of the communist government? The connections and corruption in Washington runs deep. It is going to take more than I think we understand to drain the swamp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
