Tucker Carlson & @RepJimBanks Investigate California Pension Fund Investing Billions in Chinese Companies

Tucker: "So one of the biggest players in American finance, which Calpers is, is helping to build the military of our chief military rival. This is grotesque."
@RepJimBanks “At the least, I think a thorough investigation of Mr. Meng’s relationship to the Chinese Communist Party and a comparison of CalPERS investments in Chinese companies before and after Mr. Meng’s 2008 hiring are both warranted,” -@RepJimBanks

@RepJimBanks "Banks asserted that China’s Thousand Talents Program recruited Meng for the job at SAFE. According to the FBI, TTP is a part of 'China’s non-traditional espionage against the United States.'"

#Thread Tucker Carlson's Must Watch Segment Exposing American Elites Selling Out America To China

"Instead of protecting us from this threat, an existential one, our leadership class collaborates with the other side. Why do they do that? Simple, they're getting rich from it." 1/
Tucker Carlson On Mike Bloomberg & The Leadership Elite In America Bowing to China

"Maybe more than anyone in America, Bloomberg represents the beliefs and values of our current aristocracy. Which is by far the worst in American history. The stupidest, the most greedy." 2/
Exactly @TuckerCarlson, they betrayed us.

"China didn't just one day magically overtake us. Our leaders made that possible. They abetted it, they profited from it, they betrayed us." 3/

#Thread With news that several GOP Senators are looking to take up an amnesty bill that was recently passed in the House (America Last Amnesty Bill H.R.5038) we thought we'd give you a bit of a refresher on the bill.

Here is @TuckerCarlson discussing the bill on his show. 1/
@TuckerCarlson Congressman Doug Collins revealing some of the horrible provisions of H.R. 5038. 2/

@TuckerCarlson An Excellent Breakdown of H.R. 5038 & it's passage by @NeilMunroDC:

"The bill, H.R. 5038, would likely amnesty more than a MILLION illegal aliens, and it also subsidizes farm companies that hire more H-2A visa workers instead of hiring Americans." 3/

"These DACA students are more American than most Americans are." – Joe Biden

The ruling class has already written off the American people.

Their focus is on the waves of people they’re bringing in without your consent.

They hate you.
"The rhetoric from Biden is vastly similar to that of the billionaire Koch brothers network of organizations that have ramped up efforts in recent months to pass a DACA amnesty plan ahead of the 2020 presidential election." -@JxhnBinder

breitbart.com/politics/2020/…
@JxhnBinder "A DACA amnesty would put more citizen children of illegal aliens — known as 'anchor babies' — on federal welfare, as Breitbart News reported, while American taxpayers would be left potentially with a $26 billion bill." -@JxhnBinder

A thread about how well #China is playing the international game to become the most prominent economy in this decade, by @swardley.
@swardley Some key points about #China's long-run #strategy:

- For the #CPC (Communist Party of China) the #market is only a tool to leverage the power of the Chinese people, culture, and state, and not the holy sacred truth, as most western liberals believe. See @swardley's explanation.
@swardley - #China, through its CPC, acts as the #world's #biggest #buyer of goods & services, and hence, is able to impose its conditions (read law, prices, access to intellectual property, etc) to all multinationals that want to access the Chinese market, no matter how big they are.

What explains Canadian Pension Funds' risky bets in India?

Pension Funds are custodians of retrial money of public and hence are expected to be conservative. Canadian Pension Funds, however, are different. Thread 1/11
These Pension Funds are not shy of picking up assets in the troubled sectors. Real Estate and Infrastructure assets are key bets of these funds in India. They have invested in roads, airports, solar energy, commercial real-estate and other perceptibly riskier assets. 2/11
As per Financial Post, the Canadian Pension Funds '...rank as five of the top 30 global real estate investors, seven of the world’s biggest international infrastructure investors, and were at the table during six of the top 100 leveraged buyouts in corporate history. ' 3/11

Secret Deal for #Chinese Naval Outpost in #Cambodia Raises #US Fears of Beijing’s Ambitions - Use of Ream naval base would help China’s military project power across a broad swath of Southeast Asia wsj.com/articles/secre…
China has signed a secret agreement allowing its armed forces to use a Cambodian navy base near here, as Beijing works to boost its ability to project military power around the globe, according to U.S. and allied officials familiar with the matter.
The pact—signed this spring but not disclosed by either side—gives China exclusive rights to part of a Cambodian naval installation on the Gulf of Thailand, not far from a large airport now being constructed by a Chinese company.

Thread: #Chinese Businesses Are Changing #Cambodia. And Not for the Better. - ‘See, They Are So Happy with Our Generosity!’ - “Without us Chinese coming here and creating jobs for them, the Cambodians would only have a mango a day to eat” hrw.org/news/2019/07/1…
China is now Cambodia’s largest source of foreign direct investment, foreign aid, and tourists. As part of the trillion-dollar global infrastructure and investment program the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), China has poured billions of dollars into Cambodia.
Once a sleepy beach town, Sihanoukville is now a hub for Chinese gamblers, as gambling is illegal in mainland China & only foreigners are allowed to gamble in Cambodia. Dozens of Chinese-built and -owned casinos have sprung up in the last few years, with more under construction.

1/ @tedlieu You must have woke up to a big bowl of "STUPID" today! #California - the state for Gambling & Pot ... Great! Now you just need to add Prostitution.

You tweet this to a high school student, "Lie About #CA's Financial Position," then delete the tweet!
@TuckerCarlson
2/ That surplus is temporary (a timing difference) & just a drop in the bucket compared to the CalPERS unfunded liability. Thousands of honest, hard working Californians will lose their pensions as is already happening in small towns such as Loyalton!
sacbee.com/news/politics-…
3/ Vallejo, San Bernadino & Stockton have already gone bankrupt over this. And, many cities are separating from CalPERS because they don't want their workers to lose their pension as these workers from Los Angeles County did!
