There are quite a number of #CCP-influence-focused congressional hearings happening simultaneously this morning, from focusing . EXCELLENT. I'm at the @USCC_GOV where now @PLMattis is speaking powerfully about the CCP's premier overseas info op, the United Front Work Department👇
.@Sarah_G_Cook: 130 news outlets (identified by @freedomhouse) have partnered with #CCP state propaganda media to produce CCP-positive content.
The CCP has also had success in:
👉Periodically quashing key stories.
👉Establishing dominance over Chinese media globally.
+lots more
.Commissioner @jacobhelberg asks, should we consider import controls on Chinese goods?
@edelabruyere: key issue is "independence problems" with some goods, as it's unequivocally clear the #CCP has a strategy to achieve absolute controls over key value chains.
.@PLMattis: Under the Trump admin, there was a debate about military-civil fusion as CCP policy. Are they really doing this?
Mattis had already found that this is one of the 7 KEY national strategies underpinning the system.
Commissioner Carte Goodwin: #China has achieved dominance in certain sectors, sometimes by illicit means. Paraphrasing @edelabruyere, the #CCP will take advantage of funding & support for US companies to benefit itself. (i.e. recent @Ford announcement).

"Our mission continues on. I'm not done. The mission will perhaps take on a new name, and it may no longer be called Veritas… I'll need a bunch of people around me…"
🧵(1/25) With @elonmusk experiencing “major side effects from” a #COVID19 vaccine, & @ScottAdamsSays admitting serious issues with the mainstream genetic vaccine narrative, it’s a good time to visit with one of the earliest people injured by the #CovidVaccines: @BrianneDressen👇
(2/25) THE STORY OF BRIANNE DRESSEN
A preschool teacher & mother of two young kids, she enrolled in AstraZeneca's #COVID 19 vaccine clinical trial in late 2020.
"Within an hour I had tingling down the same arm…That night, my vision had become blurry & double."
(3/25) "Within two-&-a-half weeks, I had landed in the hospital after 4 ER visits. Each visit had new symptoms…tachycardia, bradycardia, limb weakness…electric shock all over my body…severe tinnitus, so I had a freight train sound in one ear & a high eeee in the other"
Allow me to introduce our Senior Medical Columnist @DrYuhongDong, who has a newly minted #Twitter account. I'm humbled to work with her.

🧵Back in 2014, Chinese dissident @aiww wrote a powerful essay, "On Self-#Censorship" exploring life under the #CCP. (1/22)
"Killing the chicken to scare the monkey."
Not 100% clear yet what this means? I wasn't either. I had forgotten this saying & essay until recently when I landed in a space with @ooana & @shelley_curious, where I was issued a challenge: "explain this Chinese saying." (2/22)
In the essay, Ai Weiwei *beautifully* explains how #censorship & self-censorship work together to enforce conformity & the will of the state. Here he was talking about #communist#China, but I'm sure you'll find the explanation familiar, especially post-#TwitterFiles👇 (3/22)

I was a relative newcomer to the ins & outs of #Spygate when we started @AmThoughtLeader in 2019. I had the incredible privilege to have the whole picture explained to me directly by @themarketswork, who took me under his wing, patiently explaining🧵[2/n]
