ICYMI: Rubio: In the Return of History, Communist China Will Pose the Greatest Threat

… Vladimir Putin’s barbarous invasion of Ukraine is a watershed moment in the return of history…. But … even as Putin resurrects the specter of global war, the United States must grapple with an even more powerful adversary: the People’s Republic of China….

Awareness of this threat is growing, but unfortunately, America still risks being distracted by domestic politics. Just look at the Biden administration’s decision to cancel the China Initiative … to appease bogus accusations of racism and xenophobia…. 

Our response to the CCP is also being handicapped by economic interests. Using the lure of increased profit margins, Beijing has turned American companies into lobbyists and advocates for its genocidal regime…. 

The Biden administration was wrong to cave to baseless accusations that the DOJ’s China Initiative was racist. The program should be reinstated…. Nor can our response to espionage and trade secrets theft be one of half-measures, like the so-called China Bill the House and Senate are negotiating….
