Schiff Condemns U.S. For ‘Escalation’ By Stopping Chinese Spying; Other Democrats Accused Of Covering For Chinese Communist Party
Schiff acknowledged that China engages in criminal activity against the United States, but said that the Trump administration’s move to close the consulate was a “very dramatic and sudden escalation,” and that it was “all about politics.”
On Tuesday, House Armed Services Committee Chairman Adam Smith (D-WA) was accused of defending the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) by claiming that it was not their responsibility to warn America about the pandemic. China repeatedly lied about the pandemic and delayed telling the world what it knew.
“It’s not actually their job to warn the American people,” Smith said. “It’s the president’s job to warn the American people.”
