Biden’s State Department Nominee is Negligent on China
Biden’s nominee for a critical position at the State Department has previously dismissed the threats China’s Confucius institutes pose at American universities.
According to The Washington Free Beacon:
Victoria Nuland, President Biden’s choice for undersecretary of state for political affairs, voiced support for the expansion of the Chinese government-funded Confucius Institute at American universities in a 2012 press conference. Nuland, then an Obama administration spokeswoman, praised the campus institutes as a crucial part of “people-to-people exchange” between the two superpowers, dismissing concerns about Chinese ambition.
AdvertisementA reporter asked Nuland if the Obama administration was concerned about “the Confucius Institute’s expansion in the U.S. as the strongest Chinese soft power?”
“No,” Nuland responded. “This [Confucius Institute] is something that we support. It’s part of the people-to-people understanding.”
The Confucius Institute quickly expanded its influence during the Obama era, establishing itself at more than 100 American universities and colleges during its peak in 2017, despite warnings about the Chinese Communist Party’s influence. Several government reports found the Chinese government exercised high degrees of control over campus institutes, barring their instructors from teaching taboo topics such as Tibet or Hong Kong. Frequently, instructors were contractually obligated to follow Chinese law even when teaching on American soil.
Republicans in the Senate have made it a point to demand answers from Biden’s nominees who are sympathetic to China.

Traitor Joe’s first priority along with the rest of the federal government is the protection of we the people. Along with that, it is their duty to keep Cina’s dirty hands out of America, our schools, colleges, electric grid, and all if our businesses and industry. As such, his nominee is so far from qualified as to be laughable!
Absolutely and I don’t feel safe especially with him at the helm.
The whole Biden family is owned by China.
Kommissar Bidenski and his MINIONS of the Kommunist Pahhti…. will be the dissolution of the Union….
Well, gee…we already have CCP agents in the White House, Congress and SCOTUS, what’s a few more everywhere else in our government?!
To be expected from the Communist Democrat Party.
Corrupt,lying,racist,sexual pervert,dementia,puppet,joe is unfit,unstable,deranged, to be making any deals with china. He and his crackhead son are compromised by china, he can’t be trusted to make any good deals when he is in their pocket. Joe needs to be removed for incoherant,incompetence, his mental acuity is gone, as so should be joe.
He sure is but if he retires I can’t say the choice we have is just as bad and probably dangerous because she has all her faculties.
Victoria Nudelands ? wasn’t she one of Oblamers Ho’s, As for china Pervy joe will attempt to cover for them till they quit paying him and his doper- Bastard son….
Having China involved in our universities does not sound like a good
idea to me.One wonders exactly what their involvement entails and to what extant. Neighbor to neighbor seems more like taking in critical
information from our side as opposed to receiving any from theirs.And
being involved in 100 universities is questionable. I fail to see the
rational in this exercise and how it benefits us.
I’d say getting information, who knows Joe might accidentally give them the nuclear code.
