Now we know what "goods and services" the Biden family sold to China: Control over US military weapons supply chain

The Biden family was paid $32 million for this. China does not give anyone money without expecting something in return, and apparently they got far more than they paid for.

Retired army general's chilling warning over China's chokehold on US military: 'We need to prepare for war'​

• Chinese manufacturers dominate supply chains for U.S. armaments industry

"China's chokehold over U.S. military supplies leaves the West at the mercy of Beijing in the event of an all out war, a former army general has warned.

In an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com, retired U.S. Army Major General John G. Ferrari said he had 'grave concerns' about the America's ongoing reliance on China to equip its military.

Chinese manufacturers are deeply embedded in U.S. defense systems, providing critical technology and raw materials used in everything from air-to-air missiles to fighter jets.

General Ferrari, who served as a deputy commander for NATO in Afghanistan, admitted that Beijing could cripple America's ability to arm itself by cutting off supply lines.

'If we were in a war with China and it stopped providing parts, we wouldn't be able to build the planes and weapons we needed,' he said.

His stark warning comes amid growing fears of a military confrontation with China over Taiwan.

The former general, now a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, added: 'We need to start to prepare our supply chains now for a potential war."

The country's ability to defend itself is of no concern to the Biden Crime Family. Those opulent mansions didn't buy themselves.... and that $100M in the bank didn't appear out of thin air.

Illiterate, 3rd-generation trailer trash is gonna.... trailer trash.

Situation has been known for some time now, but main decision makers aren't moving on it. As shown here, a solution as recent as a few months ago, tossed out for consideration;

How to end China’s chokehold on the Pentagon’s supply chains​

....
Around the world, threats to U.S. national security are converging. Our most potent antidote for dealing with these crises — hard power — is at risk not only because of our ailing defense-industrial base but because of China’s grip on our supply chains. It maintains a chokehold on U.S. military munitions and platforms that we have not broken, despite evidence of supply chain vulnerabilities and an ever-shrinking window to do so, threatening our ability to deter adversaries in the Indo-Pacific region.

The latest National Security Scorecard from data analytics firm Govini revealed countless China-based firms remain deeply embedded in Defense Department supply chains across 12 critical technologies. Consider as well as that the draft version of the Pentagon’s National Defense Industrial Strategy noted that “today’s [defense-industrial base] would be challenged to provide the required capabilities at the speed and scale necessary for the U.S. military and our allies and partners to engage and prevail in a major conflict.”

This is what happens when just-in-time defense manufacturing meets dependence on Chinese companies, not to mention firms in Taiwan that Beijing could blockade during a crisis on which many, if not all, precision weapons and modern platforms depend.

The recently passed fiscal 2024 National Defense Authorization Act barely affects the timeline for eliminating the Pentagon’s dependence on selected Chinese companies and materials. The narrow scope and lengthy time frames of current government efforts to alleviate our supply chain dependencies send an unspoken message to Beijing: The DoD does not have, nor will it soon have, the supply base required to prosecute a long war against China. The message to Taiwan is that we can’t build the weapons and platforms needed to defend you in a protracted war without access to these at-risk supply chains.

Thankfully, there are solutions that the Pentagon and the administration can take to armor the Achilles’ heel of our defense supply chains.
...

During their past few years in power, it seems that Biden-Harris-et al. haven't moved on correcting this. Doubt they can claim ignorance, unless they are more incompetent than already shown. Complicit is more likely.

Those more knowledgeable on military and defense matters could make a case against current POTUS & Co. for serious treason here.

That is pretty clear treason

Any source that starts with Daily is so far off the charts even a RWinger believes it.

1. You don't believe the Biden family received large sums from Chinese oligarchs who have ties to the CCP.

2. You don't believe that China poses an existential military threat to the US

3. You don't believe that our military is too dependent on Chinese technology.

Disprove any one of those, asshole.

China is far more aggressive now that we have weak leadership. Why isn't anything being done about it now?
