🧵When VP Harris accepted the Democratic nomination for President, she told everyone she has “confronted threats to our security, negotiated with foreign leaders, and strengthened our alliances.”  

Let’s debunk some of her statements⬇️
❌Fact Check: False.

When Biden and Harris took office, Iran was months from a nuclear weapon. Now they’re a week away. Iran went from 5% enrichment in 2020 to 60% enrichment under Biden/Harris with no consequences.

Iran is now meddling is our elections in favor of Harris.
❌Fact Check: False.

The Biden/Harris admin has consistently tied Israel’s hands behind its back since early October 7th.

VP Harris has floated an arms embargo, sympathized with anti-Israel rioters, and snubbed PM Netanyahu. Meanwhile 5 Americans still remain hostages in Gaza.
❌Fact Check: False. 

Putin did not invade under Trump’s watch.

Trump sanctioned Russian assets, provided Ukraine lethal aid, and convinced NATO allies to meet the 2% threshold.

Biden/Harris failed to enforce sanctions on Russia and repeatedly withheld aid to Ukraine.
❌Fact Check: False.

Biden/Harris’s 'strategic patience' with North Korea led to more missile tests, not less. Trump’s direct engagement froze major tests and brought the North Koreans back to the table.

And this year, DPRK signed a mutual defense pact with Russia.

🧵THREAD: The Democratic Party’s 2024 foreign policy platform is not representative of their actual foreign policy for the past four years. It would take hours to debunk its claims, but here's a brief takedown of its most wild arguments.
2️⃣ The most blatant omissions are on Afghanistan in a section absurdly titled “Leading with Diplomacy and American Values.”

With just one cursory mention, the platform states Biden “ended America’s longest war” and led the “largest resettlement effort since the Vietnam War.” Image
3️⃣ That’s one way of describing a humiliating retreat that left Americans trapped behind enemy lines, killed 13 military heroes, ignored clear intelligence warnings, unleashed a historic humanitarian disaster, and relegated millions of women and girls to Taliban rule.

The last 3.5 years of Biden-Harris Middle East policy have been a catastrophe.

With Gov. Tim Walz announced as Kamala's running mate, I'm deeply concerned it could get worse.

Walz's policy record and instincts from Syria to Iran to Israel are both radical and wrong. A thread🧵 Image
1⃣In 2009, Walz met with Bashar al-Assad. 2 years later, Assad began massacring the Syrian people.

When Assad began using chemical weapons on his own people, Walz still opposed Obama's proposed military strikes in Syria, leading to the 'Red Line' debacle.

2⃣ His soft approach to Syria is mirrored by his myopia on the Iranian regime and their nuke program. Walz supported the JCPOA wholeheartedly and said "I don't know of a better deal."

The deal's $150 BILLION in sanctions relief paved Iran's warpath in solid gold. Image

🧵Tim Walz, Kamala Harris's VP choice, has views towards the Chinese Communist Party that are way outside of the mainstream consensus.

Here’s a detailed look at his relationship with Beijing over the years.
🗓️ 1989-1990: Walz taught a CCP-approved course in China during the Tiananmen Square massacre.

Despite the political turmoil, he later argued that U.S. classrooms should avoid depicting China as a “scary” threat and instead focus on its complexity. Image
🗓️ 1992-2003: Over more than a decade, Walz made nearly annual trips to China.

He established a summer program for Minnesota high school students, with funding support from Beijing authorities.

🧵THREAD: The Biden-Harris Administration has set a new record for the most embassy evacuations of any presidency in U.S. history, topping Obama's eight.

But it doesn't stop there: a whopping 16 nations have faced coups or had governments toppled under Biden and Harris (1/6)
2⃣ The Blinken State Department have partially or fully evacuated 11 U.S. embassies via ordered or authorized departure directives.

These include our diplomatic posts in Burma, Chad, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Ukraine, Belarus, Russia, Nigeria, Sudan, Niger, and Haiti.
3⃣ In multiple instances, military protection and escorts were necessary to protect U.S. citizens in Haiti, Sudan, and Afghanistan.

Despite assurances that we would not see a Saigon-style evacuation in Kabul, that is precisely what we witnessed with horror.

1 - The Biden administration is on the verge of providing a large cash infusion to the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism, Iran.

This deal could violate U.S. law by providing Iran with $17-24 BILLION dollars. 🧵
2 - Biden's deal with Iran could unlock $7B frozen in South Korean banks, ~$10B in Iraqi banks, and access to $6.7B in IMF funds.

Part of these funds would be used to pay billions in ransom payments for three innocent Americans in Iranian jails.
3 - According to the @nytimes, the U.S. would also stop enforcing sanctions against Iranian oil exports - which provides funding for Iran's chief terror group, the IRGC, with tens of billions of dollars each year.

The Chinese spy balloon is the tip of an iceberg. There's a CCP spy balloon in every house and every hand that has @tiktok_us on their phone. And there's much more.🧵
1. In 2020, @FBI Director Wray gave a speech that outlined Chinese spies' invasion of American society.

The FBI has over 2,000 open cases against the Chinese government. They open a new case into the CCP every 10 hours. fbi.gov/news/speeches/…
2. The size of Chinese economic theft dwarfs GDP's of entire nations. @CBSNews reported last spring that China pillaged trillions worth of intellectual property.

The @FBI estimates the annual cost to the U.S. from Chinese theft is $225-600 billion. cbsnews.com/news/chinese-h…
