“Beijing Biden” is beginning to seem an appropriate nickname…. [T]he president’s policies are helping Beijing far more than Scranton—even as China threatens the U.S. Speaker of the House with military force.
Just look at what is happening in Congress this week. With Biden’s blessing, Senate Democrats will vote to give massive tax breaks for electric batteries, solar panels, and wind turbines manufactured in China.

It also isn’t the first time we’ve seen Biden put climate priorities ahead of America’s economic and national security interests. Last fall, the Biden administration quietly lobbied against my bill to ban products made with slave labor in China…[because] China uses slave labor to produce polysilicon, the essential ingredient in solar panels….
