Guo Wengui remains in jail facing facing fraud charges. But an org he launched with Bannon, the New Federal State of China, today celebrates its 3rd anniversary at a mansion in Mahwah, NJ. Scheduled speakers include Reps Paul Gosar, Andy Ogles and of course, George Santos.

Santos has previously tried to link himself to Guo, claiming that his own fraud indictment is somehow the result of his call to "Free Miles Guo" days earlier, part of the same vast CCP conspiracy Guo and Bannon say caused other fraud charges against them. motherjones.com/politics/2023/…

Gosar and Ogles, a new far right Rep. from Tenn., along with former Rep. Pete Hoekstra, also a listed speaker, are as far as I know, newly aligning with Guo, an alleged Chinese agent charged with running a vast scam in which he used anti-CCP rhetoric to rip off his own backers.

Gosar is an '20 election truther. Ogles, like Santos, got caught lying about his resume. newschannel5.com/news/newschann… So it makes some sense that they are at the anniversary event of a mostly fake org started on 6/4 because Guo falsely claims a link to the Tiananmen Square protests.

The NFSC's anniversary this year is in a Mahwah, NJ mansion that they call their "base." That' a step down from their 2021 bash on the top floor of One World Trade Center. In fact feds say Guo bought the house with stolen funds and said they were seizing it.

So these congressmen, along with various House candidates, are at a NJ mansion allegedly bought with stolen money to endorse the conspiracy theories of a reputed Chinese agent currently jailed for allegedly stealing more than $1 billion from his own backers.

When Michael Flynn and Rudy Giuliani spoke at the NFSC's 2021 anniversary event, they were paid $50K apiece, I reported. motherjones.com/politics/2022/…. Are this year's "VVIPs" being paid?

Here's a livestream of the ongoing NFSC event. It may not be surprising, but it's still notable and bad that House members and a former ambassador are appearing at an event help by an org that DOJ/SEC have convincingly alleged is part of a massive con. gettr.com/streaming/p2is…

The live-stream is of course on Gettr, the far-right social media site that, at least prior to his arrest, seemed to control, as we've reported. motherjones.com/politics/2022/…; motherjones.com/politics/2023/…

Gosar accused China of using TikTok to promote "hedonism and mindless dancing."

Reps. Gosar and Ogles avoided mentioning Guo by name - unlike Santos, a "Free Miles Guo" man. Ogles stuck to nutty but relatively safe platitudes about "the CCP virus" etc. Though he did tell the NFSCers, "as long as you fight for liberty...your cause is my cause."

For those clamoring for more on "Let my People Guo" mentioned on the program I tweeted, by DVS 7.0 ("Rapper/Spoken Word Poet/Christian Conservative Latino Activist") and ForgiatoBlow (a pioneer of 'MAGA rap'") here is it, courtesy of @seth_hettena.
