WATCH: Chairman @RepMoolenaar speech at @AEI on the CCP's "LOADED GUN" pointed at America — Chinese companies that pose unacceptable supply chain or technology risk to the United States.🧵⬇️

"Looking for a 'smoking gun' though is the wrong way to think about China-related risk.

After all, a smoking gun means a shot has already been fired.

Demanding to see smoking guns before taking action puts policymakers into a reactive posture. When our country’s leaders have failed to connect the dots and take action, there have been catastrophic consequences including Pearl Harbor and 9/11.

This is strategically unwise and financially ruinous. Consequently, I would like to spend some time outlining why we need to be looking not for 'smoking guns' but instead 'loaded guns'– Chinese companies that because of the technology they provide or the supply chains they impact, pose an unacceptable risk to our country’s security."
