Trump Takes Action, Looks to 'Terminate' Chinese-Owned Telecom Firm From Operating In US
Even though President Trump likes to boast about his great relationship with Chinese dictator Xi Jinping, it doesn’t mean he won’t slam the door shut on the communist regime when he has to.
On Thursday, POTUS took a big step against China.
From Daily Wire:
Multiple federal executive branch agencies announced on Thursday that they have unanimously recommended to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that it “revoke and terminate” a Chinese state-owned telecom service provider’s ability to operate in the United States.
The six federal agencies that made the recommendation against China Telecom Corp. were led by the Department of Justice and included the Departments of Homeland Security, Defense, State, Commerce, and the United States Trade Representative.
[…]
“The Department of Justice led the review of China Telecom’s authorizations, and it based the recommendation on developments since the authorizations were last transferred in 2007, including China Telecom’s failure to comply with the terms of an existing agreement with the Department,” the DOJ said in a statement. “In its recommendation, the Executive Branch agencies identified substantial and unacceptable national security and law enforcement risks associated with China Telecom’s operations, which render the FCC authorizations inconsistent with the public interest.”
Right now, America is suffering. The coronavirus doesn’t care which political party a person sides with.
Democrats don’t seem to understand that. When is enough enough, for them?
Hillary Clinton’s tweet:
The president is turning to racist rhetoric to distract from his failures to take the coronavirus seriously early on, make tests widely available, and adequately prepare the country for a period of crisis.
Don't fall for it. Don't let your friends and family fall for it.

More Hillary nonsense…
Let’s try this again, @realdonaldtrump:
Hospitals are already running out of ventilators and beds. Nurses are using bandanas as masks.
If you’ve already ordered more with the Defense Production Act, tell us now.
If you haven’t, you’re failing to lead and failing Americans.

The Trump administration must answer for this and make tests widely accessible immediately to help front-line health care workers do their jobs. https://t.co/zWpciTnehF

Gee, here’s a shocker. #NancyPelosi won’t even consider the Senate plan to help American citizens and American small business owners. This is exactly why this upcoming election is literally a matter of life and death. #Trump2020Landslide https://t.co/3cn0fDEktV
