China is the Model for US Billionaires, Crony Corporatists and Authoritarian Kleptocrats

[Brian4Liberty]

It made the news this week that the CCP has advanced hypersonic missile systems. Who remembers when Obama's Jobs Czar, Jeffery Immelt, CEO of GE, was giving advanced avionics technology to the Chinese (CCP)?

Communist China was Immelt's role model:

[Occam's Banana]

I don't know what Vivek's agenda is with regard to China, but my opinion is that the global elites who drive US domestic policy are entwined with the CCP. The CCP is their role model for global totalitarianism.

@ 27:18: "The model that they are pushing us toward using the means and mechanisms of that place is the model we see in China. If you want to know what your future looks like if we don't stop the Woke, look at China, look at the social credit system, look at the oppression, look at people disappearing for having the wrong opinions. One of their greatest billionaires, Jack Ma, said the wrong thing about the government and disappeared. A biilionaire. If you want to know what the future of Europe and America [looks like,] it's China. That's the model."

James Lindsay at European Parliament - Woke Conference
"Woke, a culture war against Europe": this conference was organised by the "Identity and Democracy Foundation" (https://id-foundation.eu) and MEP Tom Vandendriessche at the European Parliament on the 30th of March 2023

00:00	The definition of equity - Woke is Maoism with Western characteristics
02:10	Marxism is a genus of ideological thought, with many different species in this genus bound together by intersectionality, but the logic is Marxist
04:35	Society produces man = inversion of praxis
08:00	Take out class, put in race: CRT falls out of the hat
11:00	How is Queer Theory Marxist?
14:03	Cultural Marxism appears (or Western Marxism)
16:25	Herbert Marcuse said the working class is no longer base of the revolution, abandons the working class and focuses on race, sexuality and culture
19:00	They see themselves as nations, evolved to attack the West
21:03	'Being white is bad, being white is oppressive'
22:02	The European Cultural Revolution to destroy Western civilization from within
24:00	Woke is Marxism evolved to attack the West, Europe is at great risk
26:20	The goal is to make us global citizens: 17 sustainable goals (SDG) of UN = slavery
28:00	I have come to name the enemy

Nvidia’s CEO Plans Trip to Meet China Executives Despite US Curbs
May 31, 2023

(Bloomberg) -- Nvidia Corp. Chief Executive Officer Jensen Huang is heading to China to meet with tech executives in the world’s biggest chip market, despite rising tensions between Washington and Beijing, according to people familiar with the matter.
...
Huang, 60, is hardly alone in courting Chinese customers. He joins a growing list of corporate chieftains taking advantage of China’s post-Covid reopening to visit the world’s No. 2 economy, including Apple Inc.’s Tim Cook, JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s Jamie Dimon and billionaire Elon Musk. Despite a pandemic-era downturn, China remains a key market for many of the world’s biggest companies and many economists expect growth to re-accelerate over the course of 2023.

From Apple to VW, CEOs Gradually Returning to China After Its Reopening

BEIJING—Top executives from multinational companies are trickling back into China with the country’s reopening, even as U.S.-China tensions grow following the appearance of a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon over the continental U.S.

Volkswagen AG’s chief executive visited China from late January to early February, the company said, while Apple Inc. CEO Tim Cook and Pfizer Inc. CEO Albert Bourla are expected to visit next month, people familiar with the matter said. Ola Källenius, Mercedes-Benz Group AG’s chairman, also plans a visit to China, the company said.

China woos Jamie Dimon, Elon Musk in search of economic boosters
Politburo members, ministers recently met Starbucks, Arm, Franklin Templeton execs

China is rolling out the red carpet for global business leaders including Jamie Dimon and Elon Musk, seeking to allay fears the world’s second-largest economy is becoming more hostile toward foreign capital.

The chief executive officers of JPMorgan Chase and Tesla both met separately with senior Communist Party officials this week against a backdrop of tumbling Chinese markets and disappointing economic data.

Members of China’s powerful Politburo also sat down with executives from Starbucks and Jardine Matheson in recent days, while top ministers welcomed leaders from investment firm Franklin Templeton and British semiconductor software company, Arm.
...
JPMorgan Chase & Co Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon said running for public office has crossed his mind amid speculation on his long-term future beyond helming the financial services giant. “I love my country, and maybe one day I’ll serve my country in one capacity or another,” he said in a Bloomberg Television interview, when asked if he’s ever considered a public office position.

During their meeting, Xi called on Gates to help promote US-China relations, greeting the tech tycoon warmly. “I am very happy to see you. We haven’t seen each other for more than three years … and you are an old friend of ours,” Xi said, according to Chinese state media.

Biden's Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm: "We Can All Learn From What China Is Doing"

It appears that Granholm is still being trained by the CCP...

China syndrome: Granholm latest Biden official to raise eyebrows in dealings with Beijing

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm is the latest in a string of Biden administration officials to come under scrutiny for meeting with Chinese Communist Party officials after newly uncovered records show she met twice with a Chinese energy official days before announcing the U.S. would tap into the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) to combat high gas prices.

Energy Department records obtained by the watchdog Americans for Public Trust last week show that Granholm spoke with China National Energy Administration Chairman Zhang Jianhua, a longtime Chinese Communist Party official, on Nov. 19, 2021, and again on Nov. 22, 2021.

It is unclear what Granholm discussed with Zhang, but the watchdog pointed out how days after the meetings, on Nov. 23, 2021, the White House announced that 50 million barrels of oil from the SPR would be released. The Biden administration sold at least two million barrels from the reserves to UNIPEC, a Texas-based oil and gas company affiliated with the state-controlled China Petrochemical Corporation.

Over the past year, the Biden administration's seemingly cozy relationship with China on energy issues has been made more evident.
...
...the Biden administration in June approved of allowing the Chinese company Gotion to build an electric vehicle battery factory in Michigan. The project has $1.14 billion in U.S. taxpayer-funded support.
...
Meanwhile, the watchdog released Granholm's calendar revealing the previously unknown meetings with Zhang the same day Just the News published text messages provided to the FBI showing that another Chinese state-controlled energy company, CEFC China Energy, had been trying to pursue a relationship with the Biden family since 2015, when Joe Biden was vice president. Documents released by Congress show that the Biden family received millions of dollars in payments from the company.

Biden has had a cordial relationship with China for years, extending well beyond the energy sector.
