Bao ‘provided Hunter insight into purchasing US LNG reserves to sell to China, had access to Biden family’s financials, and liaised with CCP on Bidens’ behalf’
Comer cited concerns that Bao’s alleged liaising between the CCP and the Biden family threatened national security
He said the committee was worried the FBI ‘ignored information’ about Bao’s role in the Biden family business
Comer pointed to DailyMail.com’s May 2021 report demonstrating Bao and Biden’s relationship went ‘beyond professional obligations’
As the committee letter notes, Bao received a degree from Tsinghua University – a recruiting hub for China’s intel service and then worked for a PRC organization
Xi Jinping gave Hu Jintao a list of the new Standing Committee members that did not match the list of people who were supposed to be on it. All of them had been replaced by Xi’s army! ! Hu Jintao was kidnapped by “deception” and escorted from the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and then taken directly to the Jingxi Hotel to be imprisoned. At the same time, more than 70 members of Hu’s family were ordered to be arrested and detained. Now all voices are blocked on the entire [Chinese] internet!

Straight up KOBK move by Xi. Nothing left to chance. Zero-sum. Done in public for the world to see. In China, this is an extremely strong signal. Outside of China, it remains to be seen how Xi will act and how the world will react. ABN
President Xi Jinping has tightened his grip on power in China after being given a historic third term as head of its ruling Communist Party.
The 69-year-old will lead the world’s most populous nation for another five years after he was confirmed as General Secretary once more at today’s televised Communist Party Congress.
In the process he promoted allies who support his vision of tighter control over society and the struggling economy, as he discarded party custom that has seen previous leaders leave after 10 years in power.
Mr Xi, who took power in 2012, is now expected by some to try and stay in power for life as he becomes the most powerful ruler since Mao Zedong.
It comes a day after remarkable scenes which saw his immediate predecessor Hu Jintao apparently forcibly removed from his seat by guards and his name removed from social media.
What we just saw was the making of an All Xi’s Men team, the breaking of decade-long rules, and the birth of an unlimited supreme leader. These are not entirely surprising, but Xi’s grab of power is still beyond our expectation. He is now a truly modern emperor. 1/
Xi will rule China for not one but at least two and likely three terms (15 years). He is "only" 69 year old: Mao ruled China until his death at 83 and Deng kept CMC Chair until 1989 when he was 85. So don't expect Xi to retire before 2037. Xi's power apex just started, today. 2/
No successor. Xi is too "young" to pick up a successor. His ministers have no interest in suggesting one. Potential candidates dare not imply it. Xi's future successor is now a nobody (who is not even in the Central Committee this time). Succession may not be an issue in 2027. 3/
If anyone thinks Hu is being led out because he is ill, this video should dispel that idea. Note that Xi waited until just after international press were admitted to the hall to expel Hu. Notice also, the man to the right of Hu starts to stand to intervene or do something but the man to his right pulls on his coat to get him to sit back down. The man who stands is Li Zhanshu, a Xi ally. The man who sits him back down is Wang Huning, who is an advisor to Xi Jinping. Notice that after Li sits back down Wang puts his hands on the table and signals Li to do the same. Kicking Hu Jintao out was a strong power display by Xi and a signal to the world. The video will be censored in China but that will only make it go more viral. It is also a strong signal to everyone in China. Scroll down this page to see a longer version of this incident. ABN
Russia regains its historic lands and is becoming one step closer to the eastern border of the EU and NATO. And then the Polish government will make the historic decision to introduce a peace contingent, or rather the Polish army, on the territory of western Ukraine. Under any pretext, or by bribing the population who will get tired during the cold winter with endless empty promises of its government, PiS may hold a referendum on joining the western regions of the remaining Ukraine to Poland.
Under the guise of such great and significant events, the countries bordering Ukraine will also receive their share of their historic lands (and maybe a little more – everything will depend on the will of the Ukrainians in referendums).
By that time, the European financing of the AFU will end, the Ukrainian army will be defeated, and the Ukrainian government will emigrate abroad. A pro-Russian president who will be neutral towards NATO and the EU will remain in power in Kiev.
Nothing unexpected or new, just a systematically prepared and played geopolitical game of European hyenas. And as usual, ordinary people suffer from it.
🇧🇾 🇵🇱 🇱🇹 The troops of Poland and Lithuania are being transferred to the borders of Belarus Both countries are concentrating military equipment and infantry under the cover of exercises.
Lithuanian soldiers were sent to the border with Belarus with red armbands
The Lithuanian military, under the cover of the "Iron Wolf 2022" exercise, arrived at the border with Belarus with identification marks used by Belarusians and Russians.
This is deliberate humiliation of Hu Jintao by Xi Jinping. It was done in front of international news media and surely signals a hardening of Xi’s rule. Hu was the general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party between 2002-2012 and Xi Jinping’s immediate predecessor. The general secretary of the CCP is China’s top ruler. Xi will be rubber stamped as general secretary on Sunday, making him communist China’s most powerful ruler since Mao Zedong. See this for more information: The new Central Committee on Sunday will choose the elite Politburo Standing Committee, with Xi, 69, widely expected to secure a third leadership term.ABN
UPDATE: If anyone thinks Hu is being led out because he is ill, the close-up below should dispel that idea. Note that Xi waited until just after international press were admitted to the hall to expel Hu. Notice also, the man to the right of Hu starts to stand to intervene or do something but the man to his right pulls on his coat to get him to sit back down. This exchange is clearer in the video below. The man who stands is Li Zhanshu, a Xi ally. The man who sits him back down is Wang Huning, who is an advisor to Xi Jinping. Notice that after Li sits back down Wang puts his hands on the table and signals Li to do the same. Kicking Hu Jintao out was a strong power display by Xi and a signal to the world. The video will be censored in China but that will only make it go more viral. It is also a strong signal to everyone in China. ABN
Massive obedience training, Chinese style. At least they are not requiring children to take dangerous experimental vaccines that have never been properly tested and show massive evidence of complete failure and serious harm to recipients. ABN
Kheriaty’s analysis in the video above is based on “mistakes.” But in too many ways these do not appear to be mistakes. They appear instead to be the work of a powerful cabal that is seeking control of the world. Everything this cabal is doing–not just covid policies–looks designed to weaken the West. Why? The short answer for USA is they can’t take our guns so they are taking our food, money, jobs, fuel, health, and flooding us with illegal immigration. Doing the same in Europe only helps. Beyond that, we have a war in Europe and a brewing war in China. Cabal is attacking Russia and China because they are adversaries every bit as significant as popular revolt within the West. All of the issues just mentioned and more can be amplified at any moment to control or panic any of cabal’s adversaries. Food and fuel can disappear, then be rationed to a weakened and frightened population already well-trained in lockdowns and isolation. Emergency war powers can be enacted based on false flags or real skirmishes, allowing cabal to do whatever it pleases. If this seems too neat to be true, consider it from cabal’s point of view and it will look even neater (and truer): From cabal’s point of view world domination by someone is inevitable. They reason either we do it or we have it done to us. It is a zero-sum game. If we do not act now, it will be too late. This is why USA has banned high-end chip exports to China, messed with China trade, and probably messed with China’s weather. This also explains blowing up Nord Stream 2, sanctioning Russia to Europe’s detriment, continuously provoking Putin to use nuclear weapons. Cabal will not care which cities are destroyed by nukes or how many people are killed in Europe or anywhere. What they want is when the dust clears they alone are left standing. ABN
China’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the country’s top planning body, told the country’s state-held LNG importers including Sinopec, PetroChina, and CNOOC, that they should stop reselling LNG cargoes and keep them to ensure Chinese gas supply this winter, Oilprice reported citing Bloomberg sources.
In recent months, as we reported first in August, Chinese LNG importers have been selling their excess inventories to Europe and reaping substantial profits from the sales because of lackluster demand in China. Chinese domestic demand has been squashed by rolling waves of city-wide Covid lockdowns and a slowdown in economic growth.
As a result, Chinese sales of LNG have been a relief to the European market so far this year. But as China now moves to cater to its own energy security this winter, Europe’s precarious LNG supply – much of which was a function of continued Chinese reselling of embargoed Russian gas – could dwindle just ahead of the winter heating season.
