"We Don't Need A World Where China Becomes Another US": Beijing Offers Vision For Restored Sino-US Relations Under Biden

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi issued some blunt statements on the deteriorated state of China-US relations during a recent wide-ranging interview in state media:

"We don't need a world where China becomes another United States. This is neither rational nor feasible. Rather, the United States should try to make itself a better country, and China will surely become its better self," he said.

He laid down his vision and some terms by which ties could improve amid the current "unprecedented difficulties" which plummeted sharply during Trump's final year in office, underscoring that the current US strategy of confrontation and its "new Cold War" attitude is "doomed to fail".

He said instead of the world cooperating more deeply to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, it remains that "unilateralism, protectionism and power politics are standing in the way of international cooperation" - in words clearly directed at the US.

In contrast, Foreign Minister Wang, said China has "spearheaded multilateral cooperation. Unswerving in advocating multilateralism…".

At the same time, Wang pointed out Sino-Russian relations have improved vastly over the past year:

"President Xi Jinping and President Vladimir Putin have had five phone calls and exchanged correspondence on multiple occasions, providing the most important strategic guidance for the steady growth of the bilateral relations. Mutual support between the two peoples.

Russia was the first country to send medical and other supplies to China, and China was one of the strongest supporters of Russia's COVID-19 response efforts.

The two countries have also worked closely on joint epidemic response and development of vaccines and drugs. Growing practical cooperation despite challenges. The two countries have vigorously facilitated economic reopening, safeguarded the functioning of industrial and supply chains, and made steady progress in several major projects."

While urging the incoming Biden administration to "return to a sensible approach" on China, the top Chinese diplomat described further:

"Fundamentally, it all comes down to the serious misconceptions of US policymakers about China. Some see China as the so-called biggest threat and their China policy based on this misperception is simply wrong. What has happened proves that the US attempt to suppress China and start a new Cold War has not just seriously harmed the interests of the two peoples, but also caused severe disruptions to the world. Such a policy will find no support and is doomed to fail.

China-US relations have come to a new crossroads, and a new window of hope is opening. We hope that the next US administration will return to a sensible approach, resume dialogue with China, restore normalcy to the bilateral relations and restart cooperation."

China and the U.S. can open a “new window of hope” in bilateral ties in the new year, Foreign Minister Wang Yi said https://t.co/EdkmAUdgqy

Senator Pat Toomey Ignores Evidence Of Voter Fraud, Will Join Democrats During January 6 Electoral Fight

Toomey will side with Mitch McConnell and Democrats against Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz.

Senator Pat Toomey (R-PA) announced that he will not join the Electoral College challenge on January 6, and instead claims that the effort led by Senators Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz aims to “disenfranchise millions of voters” despite videos, sworn eyewitness testimony, and thousands of signed affidavits from election workers highlighting extensive evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election.

In a series of tweets, Toomey said that the allegations of voter fraud “cannot justify overturning an election” and that such allegations “have been adjudicated in courtrooms across America and were found to be unsupported by evidence.”

This would not be the first time Toomey has publically objected to the efforts of President Donald Trump. Over the summer, following President Trump’s commutation of Roger Stone’s sentence, the senator called the President’s decision a “mistake.”

Hours later, the President responded by calling him a “RINO.”

“Do RINO’S Pat Toomey & Mitt Romney have any problem with the fact that we caught Obama, Biden, & Company illegally spying on my campaign?” said President Trump in a tweet on July 12.

On November 6, Toomey said that President Trump’s allegations of widespread voter fraud were “disturbing,” adding that there isn’t “any evidence to support it.”

“I’m not aware of any widespread or systemic fraud or anything of the sort,” Toomey told ABC News.

On November 27, Toomey said the President will “be remembered for chaos and misery and erratic behavior” if he was to not sign the COVID-19 relief package after demanding an increase in payment for Americans from $600 to $2000.

It should be noted that Toomey used to be the Senate’s 38th most wealthiest member. In 2014 during the Obama Administration, his net worth surpassed $3 million. According to reports, Toomey had received millions of dollars in campaign contributions from Big Pharma.

In 2015, Toomey purchased up to $15,000 of shares in Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund.

Among Health Care Select’s top holdings (with more than 33 million shares) is Pfizer Inc.

Select Medical Holdings last year ponied up $1.3 million in total lobbying; $42,125 of that was earmarked for Toomey.

By the start of 2016, the Pennsylvania senator had a net worth of $6.34 million, nearly doubling the average median Senate income of that year. By 2018, his net worth had sunken down to $2.04 million, around $300,000 more than the median senate income of that time, according to Open Secrets.

Sen. David Perdue: Democrat Jon Ossoff Is ‘Compromised by the Chinese Communist Party’

Sen. David Perdue (R-GA) told Breitbart News exclusively on Saturday that his Democrat opponent in Tuesday’s upcoming runoff election, Jon Ossoff, is “compromised” by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in much the same way other young Democrats have been targeted by CCP agents.

Perdue made the allegation on Breitbart News Saturday on SiriusXM 125 the Patriot Channel, and it comes after a series of damaging revelations about Ossoff have emerged in recent weeks. It also comes after Ossoff was finally confronted, by Fox News reporter Peter Doocy, about the matter last week on the campaign trail in Georgia.

Perdue compared Ossoff, whose documentary film company has financial ties to the CCP through a state-backed media enterprise, to Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) and to Hunter Biden, the son of President-elect Joe Biden. Perdue argued that Ossoff’s situation is actually worse than Swalwell’s or Hunter Biden’s because Ossoff went into business with CCP-connected companies and then covered it up by not disclosing the relationship in financial disclosure forms. Perdue said Ossoff committed a federal crime by failing to disclose this information required of candidates on personal financial disclosures.

“The CCP has identified for some time young ambitious liberal politicians,” Perdue said. “You see it now coming out in Eric Swalwell. You see it in Hunter Biden. Now, you have Jon Ossoff. I think Jon Ossoff is actually as or more serious than the other two for this reason: He knowingly worked for the Chinese Communist Party for two years. He hid it from the primary voters in Georgia this year. He did not disclose it. He got caught. Then he finally disclosed it, and that’s a federal crime to not disclose it, by the way. He finally amended his filing and got caught again, then lied about it again.”

While Fox did ask Ossoff the question, Perdue noted in his interview with Breitbart News that Ossoff completely dodged answering it—something that Perdue said has been a consistent pattern of dishonesty from Ossoff.

“Peter Doocy this week asked him the right question that the liberal media has not asked him, and that is explain your relationships to the Chinese Communist Party,” Perdue told Breitbart News. “He didn’t answer it. Jon Ossoff has never answered it. He lied in a debate when I asked him if he worked for that company, PCCW, which is owned indirectly by the Chinese Communist Party. They are the propaganda arm that fights against the freedom fighters in Hong Kong specifically. This is an ongoing thing. I’m not sure he can even get an intelligence clearance now as a U.S. Senator if he were elected. Frankly, it’s the same thing Eric Swalwell has to deal with. He is compromised. This is a scandal that is just beginning to now come out. We’ve been trying for months. Thank you guys for bringing it up. He’s got a real China problem for sure.”
