🚨 Chairman Comer opens hearing on CCP political warfare.
“Through deceptive but enticing business deals, the CCP has lured many American businesses into the lion’s den that is China. Once reliant on China, too many U.S. companies fall prey to “elite capture.” They may find that they feel they have little choice but to support CCP interests to the detriment of their own business and our nation.
“CCP “elite capture” tactics have also seeped into federal agencies, influencing their approach to China. Many federal officials, especially in the military and intelligence community, fell for the false CCP narrative of the so-called “peaceful rise” of China—and have yet to acknowledge their dereliction of duty. For too long, the courageous few who spoke out about the CCP threat were ignored—and some were silenced.
“Much of the American government seems to have forgotten that its purpose is to promote the interests of Americans.”
