The Democrat Party is corrupt and virulently anti-America. No rational American should support this party in any way.

Pompeo Blasts Feinstein For Praising China: ‘There’s Something Not Quite Right,’ Is ‘Not Consistent With America’s National Security’

By Daily Wire, August 3, 2020

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo slammed Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) during an interview on Sunday for her recent remarks praising communist China, saying that her comments undermine American national security interests.

Fox News host Maria Bartiromo brought up Feinstein’s remarks during “Sunday Morning Futures,” noting that Feinstein had praised China as growing into a “respectable nation.”

“Why do some in Congress not say the same thing that you have been saying, that this administration has been communicating?” Bartiromo asked. “There doesn’t seem to be an all-out agreement within the Congress on this.”

“Maria, I saw the statement from Senator Feinstein. I found it perplexing,” Pompeo responded. “I saw statements from senior American CEOs of the big tech companies this week saying they hadn’t heard or seen about intellectual property theft in the United States. That’s — that’s crazy talk.”

Pompeo was referring to remarks several tech CEOs made during a congressional hearing last week where Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was the only CEO that acknowledged that China steals technology from U.S. firms.

“I mean, I was particularly struck by Dianne Feinstein, because didn’t she have a driver for 20 years that we ended up finding out was a Chinese spy?” Bartiromo later pressed.

“You will recall, she meets with some frequency with Foreign Minister Zarif there too,” Pompeo responded. “There’s something not quite right.”

“I mean, and this is not consistent — this is not consistent with America’s national security,” Pompeo continued. “In either case, these are adversaries that intend harm for the citizens of her state of California. And I wish that she would not engage in this kind of rhetoric and these kind of meetings that undermine America’s efforts.”

FOX NEWS HOST MARIA BARTIROMO: Well, I mean, this week, Dianne Feinstein praised China as a respectable nation, she said.

Why do some in Congress not say the same thing that you have been saying, that this administration has been communicating? There doesn’t seem to be an all-out agreement within the Congress on this.

SECRETARY OF STATE MIKE POMPEO: Maria, I saw the statement from Senator Feinstein. I found it perplexing.

I saw statements from senior American CEOs of the big tech companies this week saying they hadn’t heard or seen about intellectual property theft in the United States. That’s — that’s crazy talk.

Here’s the good news. The good news is, we’re getting nearly every member of Congress aligned along the administration’s policies on China. When we voted about Hong Kong freedom, there were over 400 votes in the House and nearly every vote in the Senate. The same with respect to what’s taking place in Western China, the human rights violations.

I think the tide is turning, I think not only here in the United States, but all across the world. The threat from the Chinese Communist Party is becoming clearer and clearer. And nations that are like-minded all across the world are beginning to come together to rebalance, to push back against this, to protect our freedom and democracy.

I talked at the Nixon Library about this being a battle not between the United States and China, but between authoritarianism and freedom. That’s the fight the world needs to be engaged in. I hope we get every member of Congress on board on the side of freedom.

BARTIROMO: I mean, I was particularly struck by Dianne Feinstein, because didn’t she have a driver for 20 years that we ended up finding out was a Chinese spy?

POMPEO: We did. You will recall, she meets with some frequency with Foreign Minister Zarif there too. There’s something not quite right.

BARTIROMO: Mm-hmm. Well, we will certainly keep watching that.

POMPEO: I mean, and this is not consistent — this is not consistent with America’s national security.

In either case, these are adversaries that intend harm for the citizens of her state of California. And I wish that she would not engage in this kind of rhetoric and these kind of meetings that undermine America’s efforts.

Of course Frankenstein supports China …

… we are her enemies …

… and the Chicoms are her allies – or maybe her paymaster …

Everyone at Geller have a great Wednesday!

He wasn’t JUST A DRIVER. We learned he had many other “duties”. Being the driver was a cover.

Just like she didn’t know she had a Chinese spy working for her for 30 years! Come on people, she is working for the Chinese government. She was giving the spy access to everything. no wonder the CIA was spying on her. She is a Chinese asset.

The DemoNazi Party is rife with foreign agents working for international interests. Their last interest is the welfare of the American people whom they supposedly represent.

The PRC a “respectable nation.”? Tell that to the 400 Hong Kong protestors disappeared in January of this year Feinswein. I used to respect Feinswein back when she was mayor of San Franfreaksco — back when it was still a decent city.

She knows what she is doing….and she’ll probably get away with it like ALL the others are.

When Feinstein was mayor of SF, the LA cops were hunting the “Night Stalker” and came to town to seek help from the SFPD on the suspicion he was hiding there and showed the local cops their evidence.

Feinstein called a news conference and revealed all the evidence to the media, very nearly compromising the entire case.

Why are the biggest nitwits in Congress all women from CA (Bass, Pelosi, and Feinstein)?

Mr. Pompeo….I’m sure you are aware that Pukelosi/and husband…..Along with Feinstein/husband…..have all been receiving tons of money from the ChiComs…..for decades. Shouldn’t that disqualify them from voting on anything that has something to do with China?

Folks….we have term limits for our President…..8 years and no more.
Time to make it across all political offices.

Feinstein should have been tried for treason when it was discovered that she employed a Chinese spy for 20 years. Our government will NEVER prosecute it’s own evil!
