Democratic Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley told CNN on Thursday that the newly established bipartisan select committee investigating China will invoke “anti-Asian rhetoric and hate.”
The House voted 365-65 in favor of a resolution to establish the committee to investigate economic and technological challenges in the U.S. posed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Republican Wisconsin Rep. Mike Gallagher will chair the committee consisting of seven Republicans and nine Democrats.
“I voted no because it’s another sham effort here. It’s really clear that this is just a committee that would further embolden anti-Asian rhetoric and hate and put lives at risk,” she said. “We have enough infrastructure and governance to tackle those issues and we don’t need the select committee and that is why I voted no, because I am afraid that will embolden anti-Asian rhetoric and hate.”
They have a CNN clip where Rep. Pressley (D-MA), the bald black woman (who looks as silly as that sounds) says that. Does she really think the widespread often black hate crimes against Asians are going to go up from investigating a political party in another nation? Or is she on PRC's payroll?
