House Speaker Nancy Pelosi softened her previous criticisms of China's communist regime as her husband and son scored big business deals in China, Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer's new book reveals.
"In 1991, as a junior member of Congress, Pelosi found herself in Tiananmen Square. She was part of a congressional delegation visiting Beijing barely two years after the horrific events had un- folded. Pelosi had been in meetings with Chinese officials, but with a couple of colleagues, she covertly carried a banner into the middle of the square and unfurled it in front of a small crowd and the media."To those who died for Democracy in China," it read. The Chinese police were furious.
Schweizer also recounts how Pelosi fought against giving China most-favored-nation trade status and against allowing China entry into the World Trade Organization.
Schweizer writes, Pelosi's "Views began to moderate." A March 2009 Politico story quotes people close to Pelosi noticing a "Subtle shift" in her approach to China.
The Wall Street Journal reported two months after that Politico story in May 2009 that Pelosi told the U.S.-China Clean Energy Forum in Beijing that the reason for her "Shift" on China was, as Schweizer writes, "a result, in part, of issues like climate change that the two countries needed to tackle together."
The Matthews fund is not the only Pelosi family business opportunity tied to China.
McCarthy has said that if and when Republicans retake the House majority after the 2022 midterm elections-and thereby retire Pelosi as Speaker, who is using her position to stand in the way of holding China accountable-that he intends to create a select committee on China in the Congress next year.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
