Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis blasted the Chinese Communist Party on Friday for buying up huge chunks of farmland and other properties in the Sunshine State. Speaking to Fox News' Laura Ingraham, DeSantis - considered a potential 2024 presidential candidate and currently running for re-election in Florida - said Beijing purchasing American real estate is a growing concern. 'I don't think they should be able to do it. I think the problem is these companies have ties to the CCP, and it's not always apparent on the face of whatever a company is doing - but I think it's a huge problem.'

Maybe congress should pass a Law that forbids the Sale of Land in the US to any Foreign Country! And WHO is selling their Farmland to China? It should NOT be allowed!

Someone ought to check out land owned in NY, Oregon, Washington and California where China is very present in real estate and politics. But first, let’s ask some questions of serious politicians (there are a few) about Chinese influence in DC. I’m also wondering how deep Chinese influence runs ar our southern border and nautical ports of entry.

I have worked in China for a decade, developing industrial plants to generate hydrogen and power from coal via gasification. Unless laws have recently changed, ownership of land by anyone other than the state is forbidden. A long-term lease is the only way to develop a project. AND such a lease request by a foreign company would be summarily rejected unless the CCP government supported/got a cut from the project AND the lessee company was at least 51% one/controlled by a CCP-approved Chinese company. Let me tell you, they make it very onerous for a foreign company to build in China. Why doesn't the US do the same?

China China China. All of our problems are due to China, right? Isn’t that what Fox News tells us every day? Nonsense. “China” is the perfect cover for The Swamp in every way. The political elites own the world and they know it. Meanwhile, trannies and lesbians that you wouldn’t let babysit your child is indoctrinating children for six hours every day for years (as stated by President Trump), individual Democrats are permitted to vote hundreds of times via drop boxes, and federal law enforcement has become SS troopers for The Swamp. This is the new USA. Trust no one.

I've stated before our corporation is not allowed to own land in China. We built a building with a 49 year land lease. The Chicoms needed the land for a new road, broke the lease, the company leased a building from another Chicom nearby. But yet they can buy farmland and mineral rights in Permian Basin?

Another reason the house and senate must be turned over to conservatives in November...there should be a law that a foreign country cannot buy American land....until that time nervous Nancy and papa Paul are selling US out... and WE can only sit by and watch the Chinese take over...when President Trump takes over the White House again...then china will pay for it's aggression of our country...until then tie them up in court and wait for relief...

Maybe he should start calling out the Floridians (and other Americans) who are SELLING huge chunks of farmland and other properties to the Chinese. They can't buy if we won't sell.

Maybe folks should remind the media that Mexico has strict laws regarding the sale of any property to noncitizens who want to buy. Might be time for this country to mimic some of those laws Mexico has in place to protect their own sovereignty.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) is doubling down on his ongoing vicious attacks against Donald Trump supporters who are justifiably angry after the unprecedented raid by the FBI on the former president’s Mar-a-Lago residence. (Video) Kinzinger called those incensed over the raid “quite creepy” and stated that the Republican Party is “in a bad place.” He joins his comrades on the left, attempting to tie an attack on an Ohio FBI office by a deranged individual to all Trump supporters, painting them as radically violent extremists. Kinzinger also parroted the charge that Trump is stoking tensions and violence, an assertion the left has run with which many contend is a false premise

The NBA will not be scheduling any games on the midterm election day, but all 30 teams will play the night before on November 7, the Associated Press stated. The league looks to use this as an opportunity to encourage its fans to get out and vote to “amplify the need for civic engagement.” The official schedule will be released Wednesday for all 30 teams. However, the teams are encouraged to use their platforms to share election information with the fans — like registration deadlines — in the weeks leading up to election night.

Here we go again: In the wake of the FBI raid on ex-President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, The Washington Post and New York Times are running breathless, anonymously sourced stories suggesting “grave” Trump misdeeds. Have they learned nothing about crying wolf? “Classified documents relating to nuclear weapons were among the items FBI agents sought” in the raid, the WaPo reported, revealing nothing about the biases of its unnamed sources who have full license to distort or even lie — as similar anonymous sources did for years during the “Russiagate” fiasco. Of course, we don’t yet know what was in the documents and it may well turn out to be damning of Trump.

The Justice Department has confirmed that former President Donald Trump’s passports were taken by FBI agents who searched his Florida home last week — after “CBS Evening News” anchor Norah O’Donnell tweeted that she had been told otherwise. Late Monday, Trump spokesman Taylor Budowich tweeted a screenshot of an email purportedly from a member of the Justice Department’s National Security Division that acknowledged the bureau removed the 45th president’s travel documents from Mar-a-Lago. “We have learned that the filter agents seized three passports belonging to President Trump, two expired and one being his active diplomatic passport,” the email said.

A coordinator for Mukrowski's reelection campaign told an individual reporting undercover for Project Veritas Action that the ranked-choice voting measure is 'key' to her potentially winning in the 2022 midterm election. The new voting system in Alaska, known as Ballot Measure 2, gives voters the top four candidates to rank from their most preferred candidate to least in the open party competition.

Strzok said that “the American public should trust what the FBI is doing” in seizing documents from Trump’s home. “[A]bsolutely, the American public should trust what the FBI is doing,” Strzok advised.
