Xi Jinping Calls for Using United Work Front to Weaponize Chinese Abroad
2022-08-02
[Breitbart] Chinese dictator Xi Jinping used his weekend address to the Central Conference on United Front Work to make more aggressive use of that deeply suspicious Communist organization for radicalizing and weaponizing Chinese people living in Western nations.

China’s "United Front" system is an elaborate network of well-funded influence operations that infiltrate and co-opt groups outside the Chinese Communist Party, and for that matter outside of China. The United Front is basically a system for injecting the ideological toxins of Chinese Communism into every group that looks vulnerable and useful.

Some "United Front Work" looks respectable and above-board, disguised as diplomatic programs, cultural outreach, and charity efforts. The United Front also engages in covert subversive activities and supports outright espionage from the regime in Beijing.

One of the most pernicious programs overseen by the United Front Work Department is the Confucius Institute, a network of supposedly benign Chinese language and cultural training programs at American universities. The Confucius Institutes were largely shut down by the U.S. government and university management over the past few years, but they are making a comeback under different names.

#3  If Biden leaves before the midterms then the Democrats lose their majority because when Harris becomes the president, she’s no longer be the tiebreaker in the Senate and so basically the Democrats lose their majority and therefore they lose control over who is appointed as Vice President

#2  In the lame duck session. If the 2020 election was not on the up and up, it would be stupid to have both players on the same ticket subject to a blanket impeachment. It will depend on the final Senate headcount for January. 60 seems unlikely. A move before November will potentially turn a defeat into a rout.
