brad johnson for americans for
00:02
intelligence reform it
00:03
is february uh third 2021
00:07
and uh there’s been a a particularly
00:09
large amount of stuff going on with
00:11
china just in the last
00:13
you know week or 10 days i want to kind
00:16
of go through all of that
00:17
because this is turning into a gigantic
00:20
goat rope and becoming extraordinarily
00:21
important
00:22
and kind of for me at least at the very
00:26
top of the list of
00:27
of things of significance is that china
00:30
launched its third aircraft carrier
00:33
now just this is all stuff that’s that’s
00:35
uh
00:36
been built up china famously had kind of
00:38
a second or third rate navy
00:40
and suddenly they’re they’re coming into
00:42
position to be a first-rate navy
00:44
and this is i think the third aircraft
00:47
carry that’s been launched within a year
00:48
or maybe just slightly more
00:50
but that’s extraordinarily significant
00:53
effort building effort to create a
00:55
a first world navy if you will and these
00:57
aircraft carriers are not little pocket
00:59
aircraft carriers that are escort types
01:01
of things
01:02
these are the syria’s real deal big and
01:04
they’re they’re built for assault
01:07
duties so suddenly they’ve got three
01:09
assault aircraft carriers they can have
01:11
a major presence out in the
01:14
pacific in particular and the south
01:17
china sea is an area in taiwan
01:20
where to more to the north that where
01:22
they’ve been
01:23
uh really uh getting into it like with
01:27
philippines they’ve had a lot of
01:28
arguments and making claims that
01:30
philippines is suggesting things the
01:32
philippines is one in
01:33
in international courts against china’s
01:36
claims and
01:37
and what they’re saying is you know it’s
01:38
all philippines fault they’re doing x y
01:40
and z and it’s just propaganda
01:42
we’re the good guys in all of this so
01:44
it’s shaping into something where
01:45
they’re they’re becoming a naval force
01:47
which in the pacific
01:48
that’s everything if everyone recalls
01:50
from world war ii that that was a navy
01:53
uh you know battle essentially it was
01:55
all done with the navy and the marines
01:57
uh versus big army which was in in
01:59
europe so
02:00
navy is is king if you will in in the in
02:03
the pacific
02:04
uh because of the distances and island
02:07
nations and all these different factors
02:09
that go into it
02:10
and that’s one of the things that china
02:11
wants to control very much so looking at
02:13
it as a
02:14
new silk road so this is a big deal that
02:17
they’re doing this and
02:18
there’s a lot of other ships that have
02:20
been built along with those
02:22
amphibious assault ships and different
02:24
things like that
02:26
that that this is clearly a navy built
02:28
for aggressive reasons
02:30
not defensive reasons uh and they and
02:33
they just came out and interestingly
02:34
enough
02:35
china just issued a warning and and by
02:38
the way
02:38
you know china is not really china
02:40
there’s no flag of china there’s no
02:43
government of china there isn’t any of
02:45
that it is the communist
02:46
party the flag that you see that red
02:49
flag with the stars that’s the
02:50
that’s the flag of the communist party
02:53
of china
02:54
and there’s a there’s it’s a one-party
02:56
system that runs everything
02:58
communists always do it that way and
03:01
so china doesn’t actually have a
03:03
government the only government
03:04
that exists in china if you will is the
03:06
one in taiwan
03:08
and they have a flag that represents
03:10
china
03:11
not the party so it’s an interesting
03:14
fact that should be kept in mind but
03:16
so the chinese communist party came out
03:18
and warned biden
03:19
who’s only been present you know a few a
03:22
couple weeks
03:23
and they’re just warning warning him and
03:25
his administration
03:26
hands off taiwan stay out of the way uh
03:30
hands off hong kong stay out of the way
03:33
and don’t screw with beijing
03:34
which is of course the capital of china
03:36
and so this is they’re you know they’re
03:38
drawing lines in the sand against biden
03:40
already
03:40
and up they’ve there it’s been a very
03:43
mild coverage in the news it was
03:44
mentioned but basically saying oh
03:46
you know biden is already facing his
03:48
first challenge as president and isn’t
03:50
this great
03:50
that’s been sort of the spin that’s been
03:52
used on it
03:53
but uh biden is just has shown himself
03:57
already
03:58
to be completely unprepared to deal with
04:00
china it’s it’s an interesting thing in
04:02
the news reporting even on fox
04:05
fox has come out and said oh well this
04:06
is such an improvement
04:08
over uh trump who’s actually really
04:11
tough in negotiating with china
04:12
particularly in trade deals
04:15
because trump would like walk around and
04:17
be all friendly with these guys
04:19
well that’s trump’s negotiating style is
04:21
you know be really tough in negotiations
04:23
but be friendly openly and publicly with
04:25
them which
04:26
was working well he was something he’d
04:28
used successfully many times
04:30
and so the the the news coverage is
04:32
touting this as
04:34
how because uh biden is not wandering
04:37
around with them
04:38
shaking hands for photo ops that he’s
04:40
tougher because just because of that
04:42
that he’s not walking around with these
04:44
guys
04:45
saying nice things to them publicly so
04:48
you know the world is upside down in
04:50
this stuff that’s that’s just
04:53
insignificant you know i don’t think
04:54
mentally he’s capable of walking around
04:56
with his people so he doesn’t do it for
04:58
medical reasons versus
04:59
you know it’s some tough negotiating
05:01
style he’s
05:02
settled upon but he’s gotten all these
05:05
warnings and what is biden done in
05:06
response
05:07
he reintegrated with the world health
05:10
organization
05:11
wh oh who so he he’s reintegrated with
05:14
those guys
05:15
that trump dumped because they’re in bed
05:18
with china the guys that is in charge of
05:20
the world health organization was put
05:22
there by china the the infrastructure
05:24
that’s there is all backed and
05:25
and put in place by china and there are
05:27
chinese surrogates there
05:30
and just in case there was any doubt the
05:32
world health organization
05:34
just went to wuhan china which is where
05:37
the wuhan virus the covid19 virus
05:40
came from and they inspected the place
05:42
and came out i believe it was yesterday
05:44
or the day before
05:45
and went oh this is the greatest place
05:47
since sliced bread there’s nothing wrong
05:49
going on here
05:50
the uh safeguards they have in place are
05:53
wonderful
05:54
all this sort of stuff which we know for
05:56
a fact is
05:57
not right because that place was
05:59
inspected
06:00
about a year maybe a little less before
06:03
the wuhan virus hit the covet 19
06:06
and uh it was inspected by state
06:08
department a number of other people
06:10
saying that their safeguards were
06:11
atrocious the place was a mess
06:13
you know it needed to be seriously
06:14
upgraded and they needed to treat this
06:15
all more serious
06:16
so we know the place was a mess and yet
06:18
world health organization coming out
06:20
going oh this is a great place very safe
06:22
all of that so i mean of course that’s
06:24
what the the chinese would
06:26
are going to instruct them to say and
06:28
the chinese have come out with a
06:30
a counter to the investigation saying
06:33
well we’ve been given a clean bill of
06:35
health we know
06:36
it didn’t come from us so what the world
06:39
needs to do is investigate the united
06:41
states as
06:42
the probable uh location where the covey
06:45
19 virus
06:46
actually came from so you know and of
06:49
course you’ll have
06:50
surrogate countries that will jump in on
06:52
that and help which is
06:54
a mess and you don’t have the biden
06:56
administration pushing back on any of
06:58
this
06:58
in fact they just had a a press
07:01
conference yesterday
07:02
with uh uh jen saki who
07:06
is the white house spokesman came out
07:08
and was asked you know what are you
07:09
going to be doing
07:10
there people are looking at this list of
07:11
stuff where china’s becoming very active
07:13
and she gave a non-answer she basically
07:15
said oh well you know we’re going to be
07:17
uh you know very
07:18
very serious and tough in our
07:19
negotiations on china and we are going
07:21
to deal with china from a position of
07:23
strength
07:24
what what does that mean you know it’s
07:26
just nonsense blah blah blah
07:28
she didn’t have an answer they have no
07:30
policy
07:31
no clue they have no idea what they’re
07:33
going to do with china across the board
07:34
it’s clear
07:35
they’re not responding to any of these
07:37
provocations the line in the sand saying
07:39
don’t screw with us in any of these
07:41
places
07:42
uh the wuhan virus covid19 is your fault
07:45
uh we’ve got a clean bill of health uh
07:47
all of these things that they’re doing
07:50
is not getting any pushback and i remind
07:52
everybody of those 10
07:54
intel officers chinese intelligence
07:56
officers in
07:57
afghanistan illegally working
08:00
with a taliban and the rumors are we
08:04
don’t know if it’s true but the rumors
08:06
are
08:06
that they were paying the taliban
08:10
trophy money if you will or or you know
08:13
a bounty
08:14
for every american that they killed now
08:17
don’t know if that’s true there’s a lot
08:18
of people claiming bounties are being
08:19
paid here and there and willy-nilly
08:21
so i tend to doubt that but nevertheless
08:24
why would china be working with taliban
08:26
it’s not to their advantage
08:28
to do that what it is is it’s to our
08:31
disadvantage
08:32
so what they’re doing is purposely
08:34
working with our enemies people who try
08:36
to actively
08:37
kill americans they’re working with them
08:40
in order to strengthen them
08:41
and their capability to work against the
08:43
united states of america
08:44
looking to undermine it that is in fact
08:47
an act of war something i’ve said very
08:49
often
08:50
china is at war with the united states
08:52
doing absolutely everything that they
08:54
can do
08:54
on a war footing to damage the united
08:56
states of america
08:58
outside of creating a shooting war you
09:00
know we’re not exchanging nukes or that
09:01
sort of thing
09:03
but everything else that can be done
09:04
they’re doing china is
09:06
and will remain the single largest
09:08
threat to u.s
09:09
national security in the world bar none
09:12
and that’s in the short term medium term
09:14
and long term
09:15
they are the threat none of this russia
09:17
russia russia stuff
09:18
uh putin wants to take care of the
09:20
billions of dollars of ill-gotten gains
09:22
that he has
09:23
and his mansion in paris and is one on
09:26
the black sea
09:26
and keep them full of you know beer and
09:29
wine and booze and girls and all of
09:31
those things he’s concerned with those
09:32
issues
09:33
not taking over the world although i
09:35
mean he wants to expand russian
09:36
influence
09:37
he doesn’t have that aggressive world
09:40
take over the world view
09:41
that china has china’s also been pushing
09:45
in taiwan this is a real
09:46
serious danger now taiwan has done three
09:49
overflights just in the last week
09:52
into taiwan taiwan area they’ve
09:54
scrambled jets to respond
09:55
all those sorts of things they are
09:57
clearly building a navy
09:58
the assault ships the military on the
10:02
shore across the taiwan
10:04
straits they are building what is needed
10:06
to go into taiwan and they gave us a
10:08
warning
10:08
you stay out of taiwan this is our
10:10
business this is an internal affair
10:12
stay the hell out of it and again what
10:13
is biden doing it’s crickets so
10:15
this is becoming a serious danger and
10:18
we’re going to have
10:19
uh the first chance china has
10:23
to invade and take over taiwan a
10:26
peaceful
10:27
democratic ally of the united states of
10:30
america
10:30
the first chance they get they’re going
10:32
in and if they’re going to do it they’re
10:34
going to do it in an abiding
10:35
administration because biden won’t
10:36
respond
10:37
he won’t do anything about it
10:41
the last kind of point i wanted to make
10:43
on all of this
10:45
just china fiasco is uh every i think
10:48
everyone will recall
10:49
hunter biden was accused of soliciting
10:52
or taking
10:53
a 10 million dollar bribe from the
10:55
chinese and we saw his emails where he
10:57
was going to
10:58
uh you know share up some of this with
11:01
supposedly with president biden his
11:04
father
11:05
and biden’s brother and and hunter biden
11:08
so they were going to split this up and
11:10
biden was i mean hunter biden was saying
11:12
stuff like well i need a little bit more
11:14
to have
11:14
this guy get a little bit bigger share
11:16
and things like that and then
11:17
you know before the old man will approve
11:19
it sort of thing so he hired a law firm
11:22
to defend him of course which is normal
11:24
natural and all of that
11:26
but so what happens that law firm
11:28
defending hunter biden
11:31
the administration president biden just
11:34
selected
11:35
a lawyer out of that office and moved
11:38
him over to head up
11:39
the doj department of justice criminal
11:42
division
11:43
which are the guys investigating hunter
11:45
biden
11:47
it you know it’s just it the corruption
11:50
the political corruption that exists the
11:53
democrats are nothing more than a
11:54
criminal enterprise anymore
11:56
and unfortunately most of the republican
11:58
party have become the faithful
12:00
opposition
12:01
and they don’t stand up to this where
12:03
are the people crying bloody murder over
12:05
this
12:06
you hire the lawyer you know who’s
12:09
who’s defending your son to be the head
12:12
of the department of justice criminal
12:13
division that’s investigating your son
12:15
i mean it’s the same crap
12:18
exactly that biden pulled in the ukraine
12:22
when all this stuff was going on
12:24
there was that company that hunter biden
12:26
was working for making the
12:28
the 80 some odd thousand dollars per
12:31
month
12:31
as a board member and he went in as he
12:34
saw
12:34
as we’ve all seen the video of him
12:36
demanding that the prosecutor
12:38
in investigating barisma that company be
12:41
removed from office he was removed from
12:43
office
12:44
uh so that that ukraine would get the
12:45
aid that
12:47
that biden was withholding from them
12:49
until they agreed to do this
12:51
and what did he do he hand-picked biden
12:54
did
12:54
not only to have that guy removed but he
12:56
hand-picked the replacement
12:57
to go in as the prosecutor in ukraine
13:00
and when they say that this whole thing
13:02
was debunked that there was nothing
13:03
wrong there’s no there there
13:05
all that stuff the guy who supposedly
13:07
debunked it
13:08
is that same prosecutor that joe biden
13:10
put in
13:11
that’s the guy that they’re claiming has
13:13
debunked the whole thing so it’s the
13:15
same
13:15
criminal corrupt uh attitude by by
13:19
the biden criminal enterprise family the
13:21
democratic party
13:22
and unfortunately the vast majority of
13:25
the republicans as well
13:26
so not a pretty picture a lot of danger
13:30
coming up here
13:31
real dangers of actual big shooting wars
13:34
taking place in
13:35
with taiwan for example where it could
13:37
expand and what’s going to happen
13:40
in india and the philippines and all of
13:42
these other countries when they see this
13:43
take place
13:45
the clouds of war on the horizon and
13:48
nobody’s doing anything to try and stop
13:49
it or fix it
13:50
so it’s certainly an area to keep an eye
13:53
on and
13:53
more coming on this very soon
