China’s Deadly Influence: ‘Blood Money’ and Corruption in Washington

China’s increasing worldwide influence is a major debate in this presidential election year. It centers on whether the Chinese Communist Party is viewed as a friendly competitor or an enemy of the United States. Recently, investigative journalist and author Peter Schweizer detailed China’s efforts to undermine America from within. Schweizer contends Communist China is at war with America, sowing chaos and death without firing a shot. He makes that argument in the book “Blood Money: Why the Powerful Turn a Blind Eye While China Kills Americans.”

“China has a strategy, they call it disintegration warfare that says, look, we don’t want to have a kinetic fighting war with the United States because that would lead to all kinds of disruption and damage in China,” Schweizer explained. “So, we’re going to try to beat them by not going to war, but by undermining them nonetheless.” Schweizer believes that the Chinese Communist Party undermines America by employing the tactics of Sun Tzu, a fifth-century Chinese military strategist who argued that an enemy can be defeated without actual combat. “They’re doing this by sowing social chaos in the United States,” Schweizer warned. “They’re literally killing Americans with fentanyl. All the Mexican cartels are the junior partners. This is a Chinese operation.”

As fentanyl continued to pour across the U.S. southern border, the Centers for Disease Control released an alarming statistic: over 112,000 Americans lost their lives due to fentanyl overdose in 2023. Schweizer alleged it isn’t only the Biden family that China is influencing. He believes China has financial ties with members of both major political parties in the United States, including outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. Schweizer alleges that the family of McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, owns a shipping company called Foremost Shipping, which has grown and expanded due to its Chinese business connections. “If Mitch McConnell as a senator were to do or say something that particularly angered Beijing, they could destroy the family shipping business overnight,” explained Schweizer. “That’s the kind of leverage they have and the kind of leverage that they use.” To read the full story, visit our content partners at CBN News.
