VP Biden China speech

Newly announced presidential contender Joe Biden has a massive conflict of interest — both in his personal and professional capacities — when it comes to dealing with America’s chief adversary, China.
The former VP made waves Wednesday when he appeared to refuse to categorize the nation of China as a U.S. competitor, let alone an adversary.
“China is going to eat our lunch? Come on, man,” Biden said at a campaign stop, adding, “They’re not competition for us.”
So why is Joe Biden so soft on China?
Some point to his family’s massive financial ties to Beijing. The Biden-China conflict of interest is perhaps best documented in Peter Schweizer’s Secret Empires: How the American Political Class Hides Corruption and Enriches Family and Friends. In the book, Schweizer details how the firm of Hunter Biden and John Kerry’s stepson received a $1+ billion private equity deal with Beijing.
And the money did not come from an American business that deals with China, but straight from the Chinese government, Schweizer explained. Over time, the deal’s value increased to $1.5 billion.
Adding to the questions surrounding the sketchy deal, the agreement was secured in December 2013, just 10 days after then-Vice President Biden and his son Hunter took an official visit to China.

Report: Ukrainian Embassy Says DNC Operative Alexandra Chalupa Wanted Dirt on Trump in 2016
The Ukrainian Embassy confirmed recently that a Democratic National Committee contractor had asked for dirt on former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort during the election in order to help Hillary Clinton, according to a recent bombshell report from The Hill.
Ukrainian Ambassador Valeriy Chaly’s office told The Hill that DNC contractor Alexandra Chalupa sought information from Ukraine on Paul Manafort’s dealings inside the country in hopes of forcing the issue before Congress. She also tried to have then-Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko comment on Manafort during a visit there in 2016.
Chaly said the embassy knew Chalupa in her role as a Ukrainian-American activist, learned only later of her ties to the DNC, and rejected her requests because he thought it was not appropriate to interfere in the U.S. election.
“The Embassy got to know Ms. Chalupa because of her engagement with Ukrainian and other diasporas in Washington D.C., and not in her DNC capacity. We’ve learned about her DNC involvement later,” Chaly said in a statement.
“We were surprised to see Alexandra’s interest in Mr. Paul Manafort’s case. It was her own cause. The Embassy representatives unambiguously refused to get involved in any way, as we were convinced that this is a strictly U.S. domestic matter,” he added.
“All ideas floated by Alexandra were related to approaching a Member of Congress with a purpose to initiate hearings on Paul Manafort or letting an investigative journalist ask President Poroshenko a question about Mr. Manafort during his public talk in Washington, D.C.,” he said.
The ambassador’s statement comes several months after a Ukrainian court ruled that an anti-corruption body closely aligned with the U.S. Embassy in Kiev and a parliamentarian named Serhiy Leshchenko wrongly interfered in the U.S. election by releasing documents about Manafort, according to The Hill.
Leshchenko provided the dirt to Fusion GPS, according to Nellie Ohr, the wife of senior Justice Department official Bruce Ohr. She told Congress in a closed hearing that while she was working for Fusion GPS, she learned that Leshchenko was providing dirt to the research firm.
Fusion GPS was paid by the Clinton campaign and the DNC to do opposition research on then-candidate Donald Trump.
