Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has claimed that the Chinese Communist Party is America’s primary foreign adversary.
Speaking to Alex Marlow on Monday’s edition of Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Daily, Pompeo also warned of China’s infiltration of the nation’s government businesses, and schools.
Breitbart reports: Marlow asked about reports of a data leak revealing Chinese state operatives infiltrating multinational corporations, including banks, defense contractors, and pharmaceutical companies.

Pompeo replied, “We’ve seen this everywhere, and President Trump’s been the first President of the United States, and, frankly, one of the first global leaders to identify this challenge from the Chinese Communist Party. I spoke about this in the context of our educational institutions at Georgia Tech last week, where they have infiltrated our schools and they spend money on research projects and so co-opt our institutions that are higher learning and research. They now infiltrate – we’ve seen this – into our government, into our businesses. President Trump called this out. We’ve begun to push back against it; there’s a lot more work to do. But make no mistake: the Chinese Communist Party presents the single greatest threat to the United States of America of our times.”
In September, Pompeo said he was “hopeful” that branches of the Confucius Institute — an organization run by the Chinese government — across America’s colleges and universities would be closed by the end of 2020. The Trump administration designated the Confucius Institute’s programs as foreign missions of the Chinese Communist Party.
China is a greater threat than Russia in the realm of hacking attempts targeting governmental and classified information, Pompeo held.
Reports last week alleged that a suspected Chinese spy developed extensive ties with local and national Democrat politicians, including House Intelligence Committee member Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), as part of a years’-long political intelligence operation run by China’s main civilian spy agency between 2011 and 2015.
China is “running influence operations against members of Congress [and] governors,” Pompeo remarked. “This is a determined, long term, committed effort from General Secretary Xi Jinping, and President Trump has been the first one to say “enough” and begun to push back against it by doing things like closing the Chinese consulate in Houston now a few months back.”
Marlow asked about economic integration between the U.S. and China as an impediment to a national security strategy towards the one-party state.
“I feel like we’re still even just addicted to Chinese products,” Marlow stated. “We can’t help ourselves from buying Chinese goods online. I mean, where do things start in terms of striving to push back on a national level to this infiltration?”
Pompeo praised President Donald Trump’s departure from his predecessors in terms of U.S. foreign policy towards China.
“For 50 years, Republicans and Democrats alike were asleep while the Chinese Communist Party began to move in,” Pompeo said. “They moved in through running state-owned enterprises and stealing our intellectual property, denying tens of millions of American jobs. They moved into our institutions of higher learning. … We’ve seen the kinds of things they do to break their promises around the world. … They told Barack Obama – President Obama – that they wouldn’t arm the islands in the South China Sea. They immediately did so.”
Pompeo continued, “This is something that President Trump has taken on in every one of these theaters. We’ve built our military. We’ve built our military strength. President Trump said “enough” and put tariffs on their products because they weren’t treating us in a way that was fair and reciprocal with respect to trade. This battle, this challenge, will have to be confronted in every domain, whether it’s an economic domain, diplomatic domain, or making sure that we have the military capabilities to do what America needs to do to defend and protect itself, and President Trump has put the resources against the problem in ways that no president before him has ever done.”
The State Department published a full transcript of Marlow’s interview with Pompeo.

In California, it is Dr. Su Pan, a Chinese gal that issued the lockdown orders. Newsome does not issue the order, the state health officer does – Dr. Su Pan is a Tufts University graduate. Tufts being famous for having ties to the CCP via its ‘Confucius Institute’, an espionage front. Is Su Pan a CCP agent? I think so.
Globally the state health authorities have taken over running the place but Pimpeos just a deceiver And he KNOWS they’ve done it as directed by the DIRECTOR GENERAL OF WHO as the Gruppenfuhrer, or in English the team or group LEADER. who is DICTATING to the world as instructed by the Royal or Imperial College from England From ENGLAND. Not China
Absolutely true.

China equals now the Nazis new Jews .And always really the enemy is within always the same ,always the opposite and always deceiving .
the Rothchilds own the CCP. They are the ones that install Mao, and were the brains behind Mao. they funded Pol Pot, the Bolshieviks, the start of the Korean war? How do you think the Soviets got those British made jet engines for their nifty Mig 15s? British jet engines fighting our American fighter jets, and no one ever said anything. This whole planned demic is a central bank operation. People wake up before it is too late, and it is almost too late.
No they didn’t and no they don’t The Vatican owns China.
it all leads to the same head. The vatican and the Roths are rooted to the same power. the vatican is a tool of the roths.
The Vatican (well, not the priests, but the people in the shadows you never actually see), rule everything. Along with others like these rich families and companies. They fund them politicians.
Load of Bull .China didn’t set up every State Health minister with legal powers to take martial law emergency control over every persons movement and freedom in anticipation of the expected pandemic It was all planned years ago and even the entire flooding with msm propaganda was pre arranged. And it was all done using the rule of law and not by chi ese lawyers either By the rule of law under Crown Law orchestrated from the Ciry from the Temple Bar .
Millions of Americans are dolts. They sat around playing video games, watching endless and useless sporting events, played paint ball warriors and got brainwashed watching stupid movies made by anti-American producers, while China was busy getting rich selling junk that became landfill material to U.S. residents and government for years and years. All of it benefitted a few zillionaires and connected people who sold out to every foreign nation in the world including China. When the public got sick of all of this, they decided to elect a grass roots president to clean this mess up. The criminals in Congress and the Senate in the democratic party and the U.S. establishment media, their mouthpiece, harassed and told lies about this president for four years and finally ended up winning the subsequent election, despite President Trump having landslide voting margins.
Look at the anonymous distractor!
We are talking about China placing agents in the US Gov, bribing Reps and Senators, blackmailing Reps and Senators, spouting communist proaganda via compromised MSM, etc….
…And anonymous is trying to steer the entire conversation toward fake-news-based-lockdowns while claiming they all stem from UK Policy.
At best, that’s a different conversation. It should be pointed out that, it wasn’t UK agents that were screwing and compromising Swalwell and who knows how many others in high office. IT WAS CHINESE AGENTS.
Since it is widely known that the CCP has placed a gigantic number of trolls online to counter any factual news about how China treats their own people and the CCP’s designs on replicating the tyranny at home throughout the entire planet, I WOULD BET YOU ARE A PAID CHINESE DECEPTION AGENT that sits around all day waiting for bots to point you to sites that paint China in any negative light.
Don’t you have some more journalists to go lock up for truthful reporting? Or, maybe another 50+ million people to kill with some “new mao”?
The idiot Pompeo needs to be reminded the unpatriotic, immoral, unethical Ronald Reagan fired the union FAA Air Traffic Controllers, that encouraged CEO’s like tRump to off shore/out source American manufacturing to the PRC. Not following through on the Carter Energy Policy now has the PRC leading the world in these technologies and threaten US economic/military interests and Taiwan. It was misguided Reagan policies that laid the foundation for the CCP rise.
why hasn’t the CIA done anything about it? Because the CIA is helping them do it.
