THE CABAL’S PLAN TO MAKE CHINA GREAT WITH OUR WEALTH (as told by Mike Pence)

When the Second World War arose, we stood together as allies . . . America ensured that China became a charter member of the United Nations . . . But soon after it took power in 1949, the Chinese Communist Party began to pursue authoritarian expansionism. . . . only five years after our nations had fought together, we fought each other in the mountains and valleys of the Korean Peninsula

After the fall of the Soviet Union, we assumed that a free China was inevitable. Heady with optimism at the turn of the 21st Century, America agreed to give Beijing open access to our economy, and we brought China into the World Trade Organization.

Previous administrations made this choice in the hope that freedom in China would expand in all of its forms … But that hope has gone unfulfilled.

But not even the brutal Korean War . . . American universities began training a new generation of Chinese engineers, business leaders, scholars, and officials.

Previous administrations made this choice in the hope that freedom in China would expand in all of its forms -– . . .. But that hope has gone unfulfilled.

Over the past 17 years, China’s GDP has grown nine-fold; it’s become the second-largest economy in the world. Much of this success was driven by American investment in China

China’s actions have contributed to a trade deficit with the United States that last year ran to $375 billion –- nearly half of our global trade deficit. As President Trump said just this week, in his words, “We rebuilt China” over the last 25 years.

Now, through the “Made in China 2025” plan, the Communist Party has set its sights on controlling 90 percent of the world’s most advanced industries, including robotics, biotechnology, and artificial intelligence. … to obtain American intellectual property –- the foundation of our economic leadership -– by any means necessary.

Beijing now requires many American businesses to hand over their trade secrets as the cost of doing business in China

China now spends as much on its military as the rest of Asia combined, and Beijing has prioritized capabilities to erode America’s military advantages on land, at sea, in the air, and in space

China’s aggression was on display this week, when a Chinese naval vessel came within 45 yards of the USS Decatur as it . . . . We will not be intimidated and we will not stand down.

And by 2020, China’s rulers aim to implement an Orwellian system premised on controlling virtually every facet of human life — the so-called “Social Credit Score.” . . . In the words of that program’s official blueprint, it will “allow the trustworthy to roam everywhere under heaven, while making it hard for the discredited to take a single step.”

And when it comes to religious freedom, a new wave of persecution is crashing down on Chinese Christians, Buddhists, and Muslims.

“China has opposed the actions and goals of the U.S. government. Indeed, China is building its own relationships with America’s allies and enemies that contradict any peaceful or productive intentions of Beijing.”

Sri Lanka, which took on massive debt . . . so Beijing pressured Sri Lanka to deliver the new port directly into Chinese hands. It may soon become a forward military base for China’s growing blue-water navy.

I want to tell you today what we know about China’s actions here at home — some of which we’ve gleaned from intelligence assessments, some of which are publicly available. But all of which are fact.
