CHERYL: NEW THIS MORNING, THE
COMMUNIST CHINESE PARTY HELPING
TO SECURE PRESIDENT XI JINPING’S
POLITICAL FUTURE, LEADERS
APPROVED A RESOLUTION THAT’S
EXPECTED TO HELP XI EXTEND HIS
RULE FOR A THIRD FIVE YEAR TERM.
JOINING US NOW, OHIO
CONGRESSMAN, HOUSE INTELLIGENCE
COMMITTEE MEMBER, MIKE TURNER.
GOOD MORNING,.
>> GOOD MORNING, CHERYL.
CHERYL: YOUR REACTION TO
ANOTHER FIVE YEARS OF XI JINPING
AND THE FACT THAT HE HAS NOW
BECOME FOR ALL ESSENTIAL
PURPOSES A DICTATOR?
>> RIGHT.
WELL, YOU KNOW ON THIS VETERANS
DAY AS WE ARE THANKFUL FOR ALL
THOSE WHO SERVED OUR NATION TO
SECURE OUR DEMOCRACY AND
LIBERTY, WHEN WE SEE WHAT CHINA
IS DOING, IT CERTAINLY GIVES US
THAT FORESHA HESHADOW OF CONCERN
BUILD-UP OF THE MILITARY, AN
EXPANSION OF THEIR NUCLEAR
WEAPONS PROGRAM, YOU DON’T SEE
ANOTHER COUNTRY THAT’S SO
RAPIDLY EXPANDING NUCLEAR
CAPABILITIES, DOING MOCKUPS OF
U.S. SHIPS FOR PRACTICE AND WHAT
THEY’RE DOING IN SPACE APPEARS
TO BE A THREATENING POSTURE AND
GIVE A CONCERN FOR WHAT MIGHT
HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE.
YOU TALK ABOUT SUPPLY --
CHERYL: I’M TALKING ABOUT THE
NUCLEAR ISSUE.
>> IT’S IMPORTANT.
AND THE SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS
THAT WE TALK ABOUT, THIS IS THE
ULTIMATE IN SUPPLY CHAIN
DISRINGS AS WE LOOK TO --
DISRUPTION AS WE LOOK TO WHAT XI
MAY BE DOING, LEADING CHINA TO
AN AGGRESSIVE STANCE.
CHERYL: OBVIOUSLY, THE PENTAGON
IS CONCERNED ABOUT THE NUCLEAR
THREAT FROM CHINA.
I THINK YOUR POINT ABOUT THE
SUPPLY CHAIN CRISIS IS WELL PUT
BECAUSE THERE’S STILL SOME OUT
THERE THAT REALLY ARE CONCERNED
ABOUT NOT JUST THE FACT THAT
YOU’VE GOT AMERICAN INVESTORS
THAT WERE BUYING SHARES OF
CHINESE COMPANIES, MARIA TALKED
A LOT ABOUT THAT.
YOU’VE GOT THE FACT TAKE THE
ECONOMY POWER THAT THE CHINESE
STILL HOLD OVER US AND YOU’VE
GOT PRESIDENT BIDEN WHO HAS GOT
THIS VIRTUAL SUMMIT WITH HIM,
WITH XI JINPING ON MONDAY.
IT DOESN’T SEEM LIKE THE CHINA
THREAT IS BEING TAKEN SERIOUSLY
ENOUGH AT THE ADMINISTRATION
LEVEL.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
AND WHAT EVERYONE HAD HOPPED HOP
AS CHINA OPENED UP AND AS WE
ENTERED INTO A GREATER TRADE
RELATIONSHIP, THAT THEY WOULD
BECOME MORE LIKE US.
NOW THAT WE SEE THIS MILITARY
BUILDUP AND THEIR MORE
AGGRESSIVENESS IN THE AREA, HAD
THEY JUST DID A MILITARY
EXERCISE WITH RUSSIA AND CHINA
WHERE THEY CIRCLED JAPAN,
THREATENING OUR ALLY, JAPAN, IT
GIVES US ALL CONCERN AS TO WHAT
DIRECTION CHINA IS GOING AND
WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR THE FUTURE
OF THE UNITED STATES.
CHERYL: I HEAR YOU, JOSEPH
PINION, GET IN HERE.
OBVIOUSLY THIS IS SOMETHING THAT
THE PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION TOOK
A VERY HARD STANCE ON.
YOU HAVE TO SAY PRESIDENT TRUMP
WASN’T WRONG ABOUT CHINA.
NOW WE’VE TAKEN A DIFFERENT
DIRECTION.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
CONGRESSMAN, I WOULD LOVE TO GET
YOUR PERSPECTIVE HERE.
BECAUSE WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT
WHAT’S HAPPENING HERE, YOU SEE
THAT WE JUST FOUND OUT THAT
CHINA HAS SURPASSED OUR MAY HE I
HAVE IN SIZE, WE FIND OUT THAT
WE’RE WITNESSING THE LARGEST
NUCLEAR BUILDUP IN THE CHINESE
DESERT, ARGUABLY SINCE THE COLD
WAR, OVER 200 NUCLEAR SILOS
POTENTIALLY IN THAT CHINESE
DESERT.
YOU SEE THEM P PROPPING UP
AROUND AND THEIR NUCLEAR
AMBITIONS, $400 BILLION, 25-YEAR
ALLIANCE.
HOW DO WE GET THE WORLD TO SEE
AND MAYBE THIS ADMINISTRATION TO
SEE WHAT THE WORLD HAS ALREADY
KNOWN, THAT THIS IS A FIVE ALARM
FIRE, THAT THREATENS THE
STABILITY OF NOT JUST THE REGION
BUT THE WORLD, PARTICULARLY WHEN
YOU TALK ABOUT THE FACT THAT
THEY HAVE MISSILES CIRCLING THE
GLOBE IN OUTER SPACE AND WE ARE
DEFENSELESS TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT
IT.
>> RIGHT, ABSOLUTELY, YOU JUST
REFERENCED THAT THEIR ADVANCES
IN HYPER SONICS WHERE THEY
LAUNCHED A HIGHER SONIC IN ORBIT
AROUND THE EARTH, INTENDED TO
PROVE THE CONCEPT THAT WE HAVE A
NUCLEAR WEAPON THAT WE DON’T
KNOW WHERE IT’S COMING FROM.
THESE ACTIONS ARE NOT TAKEN BY A
COUNTRY THAT WANTS TO BE OUR
ALLY, FRIEND AND TRADING
PARTNER.
THESE ARE ACTIONS TAKEN BY A
COUNTRY THAT WANTS TO DOMINATE
WORLDWIDE.
THEY’RE USING THEIR ECONOMIC
BASE TO BE ABLE TO EXPAND
MILITARILY.
THAT CERTAINLY THREATENS US, IT
THREATENS OUR ALLIES AND DOESN’T
SHOW THAT THEY HAVE GOOD
INTENTION.
CHERYL: THE FACT THAT THEY’RE
BUILDING MOCK-UPS, IT SHOULD BE
DISCONCERTING FOR ALL OF US.
YOU ALSO HAVE HUMAN RIGHTS
ABUSES.
I’M SURPRISED THAT PRESIDENT
BIDEN HAS NOT ADDRESSED THAT
MORE, IT’S ALMOST LIKE HE’S
AFRAID OF THE CHINESE.
I’M NOT SURE IF THAT’S THE RIGHT
WORD BUT YOUR REACTION TO THAT
AHEAD OF THIS SUMMIT ON MONDAY.
>> ABSOLUTELY.
THIS IS A HUGE A FAILURE ON THE
BIDEN ADMINISTRATION.
AS THEY’VE BEEN RUNNING AROUND,
PULLING OUT OF AFGHANISTAN WITH
SUCH DISASTER AND DIMINISHING
OUR ROLE AROUND THE WORLD AND
THEN TURNING TO CHINA, THEY’VE
BEEN COMPLICIT IN CHINA’S
GROWTH, CHINA’S MILITARY
EXPANSION, THEY’VE NOT CALLED
CHINA OUT ON THIS.
AND YOU WONDER REALLY HOW IS IT
THAT THIS ADMINISTRATION CAN
HAVE SUCH A BLIND EYE TO CHINA,
NOT TRY TO ADDRESS THIS WITH
THEM AND YET AT THE SAME TIME
CONTINUE TO ALLOW THEM TO EXPAND
ECONOMICALLY AND MILITARILY.
THIS SHOULD BE NUMBER ONE ON
THEIR AGENDA.
IT WAS NUMB BUN WEAR NUMBER ONE
AGENDA.
CHERYL: THAT IS THE WORK YOU’RE
