Secure Freedom Minute: Start Weaning the U.S. NOW from Chinese-supplied ”Essential Goods”!

By

The Wall Street Journal disclosed this week that the Chinese Communist Party has again penetrated our country, this time in a way that is far more dangerous and difficult to counteract than its recent spy balloon escapade.

Giant Chinese-supplied cranes used to move containers at ports across the country lend themselves to intelligence collection and disruptions. What could possibly go wrong, especially in the event of conflict?

Possibly even more catastrophic is our reliance on some 400 Chinese high-voltage transformers now integrated into our electric grid.
