From this development. Christopher wrays socalled review of it all. In a statement the fbi admitting, quote although e the fbi does not have the Prosecutorial Authority to bring a criminal case, the Inspection Division can and will evaluate whether any current onboard employees, get that . Onboard employees engaged in actions that might warrant disciplinary measures. In other words, well, going on to say as for former employees, the fbi doesnt have the ability to take disciplinary action. In other words, the fbi has successfully, corruptly run out the clock and will have only irrelevancies to offer in this internal review. We will have a lot more on this development tonight. Well be talking with Judicial Watch president tom fitton who has just uncovered an important document concerning the origins of the flynn investigation. In other news here, the Chinese Communist party bending the arc of history as the liberals like to say, bending the arc of history toward totalitarianism. Today can china scrapped hong kongs Representative Government and all but ended individual is freedoms. From bay ring, leaders beijing, leaders introducing legislation that eliminates hong kongs pretense even of autonomy. That led to some fights on the floor of hong kongs legislature. President trump and the administration sternly warning china that should that bill become law, as it is sure to become, a u. S. Response will be swift, it will be strong. Secretary of state mike pompeo said this, quote the decision to bypass hong kongs wellestablished legislative processes and ignore the will of the people of hong kong would be a death knell for the high degree of autonomy beijing promised for hong kong. Also today defense secretary mark esper weighing in. He condemned china for its heightened a aggression. You know, they sunk a vessel in the south chai china sea, they continue to intimidate their neighbors whether its fishing rights or oil drilling rights in the south china sea. This is, again, you see increased aggressive behavior by china. Lou despite chinas worsening aggression, the top unwavering position of President Trump against chinas threats, the White House Security strategy released this week fails to refer to china as an enemy and, in fact, labeled chinas aggression and military threats, in fact, as, quoteunquote, challenges. Yes, its from the trump white house, not the obama white house. Chinas search for power and rising ambitions also threatening american buzz and the security of business and the security of our intelligence partners around the world. A new report examines the strategic areas of each of the socalled five is intelligence partners that have become increasingly dependent on china. Five is is a term for the five nations that share intel meant only for their intelligence agencies. The countries are the United States, australia, canada, new zealand and the u. K. Countries now deeply concerned about their dependence on china for medicine, for pharmaceuticals, antibiotics, for medical equipment. Heres our Foreign Affairs correspondent Benjamin Hall with a report. Reporter lou, this new report by a british think tank shows that the u. S. Is strategically dependent on china for 414 categories of imported goods of which 114 serve its Critical National infrastructure, and that could in some cases be a National Security risk. China has steadily increased its share of many markets over the years under the increasingly authoritarian leadership of president xi jinping who has made very clear his ambitions for dominance. Today the u. S. Is strategically dependent on his regime for categories including antibiotics such as penicillin, essential batteries including lithium, rare earth metals and Critical Minerals like tupg ten, cell phones, life jackets and an or colors. The u. S. Is reliant on china for them all. As china continues to bully economies around the world, experts say that to turn this around requires a decoupling and new partnerships in the indopacific region. Rebooting International Trade and free trade agreements and the relationships with partner countries who are reliable is how its going to win this for us. President trump and his administration see both sides of the picture. Reporter the coronavirus pandemic has also made clear the dangers of this dependence. Chinese control of supply lines that produce critical equipment like face masks and ventilators were initially turned inwards to help china alone, leaving other countries in short supply. The idea of decoupling from chinas economy is already well established in the u. S. , and it has bipartisan support. It is also something that from day one President Trump has made a priority. Lou . Lou thank you very much, Benjamin Hall reporting. Thank you. We want the applaud white house trade czar Peter Navarro for dealing with this issue of american dependency on china and for dismantling radical dems and if leftwing press narratives on china. Watch this exchange between navarro and Abcs George Stephanopoulos this past sunday. You say the chinese took down the american economy, so youre saying they deliberately unleashed the covid virus on the United States . Do you have evidence for that . I did not say they deliberately did it, but their china virus lets go over the facts here, correct me if im wrong. The virus was spawned in wuhan province. The chinese, behind the shield of the world health organization, for two months hid the virus from the world and then sent hundreds of thousands of chinese on aircraft to milan, new york and around the world to seed that. They could have kept it in wuhan. Instead it became a pandemic. So thats why i say the chinese did that to americans, and they are responsible lou and joining us now, the man who left George Stephanopoulos gasping, as you saw there. I thought i saw even a few tears. Peter navarro joins us, assistant to the president , his trade czar, member of the president s Coronavirus Task force. Peter, good to have you with us. Lets start with that, that, that Remarkable Exchange with stephanopoulos. Youre saying straightforward what is clear to the american public. We have seen, it appears, the white house pull back a bit. Theres no longer a reference to wuhan viruses or china viruses even though thats the place where it originated by this president who, by the way, talked about that for months as the china virus. Is there a, is this a pivot here that ive missed . No, lou, theres no pivot at all. And my own view is that that best way the beat the Chinese Communist party is to beat them at their own game in the sense of lets make it here. Ill tell you the one thing we no longer have to fend on china for is ventilators. We are now exporting ventilators. The week before it was 20 million face maskings per month weve added in arizona and rhode island. The week before that we went to a gm factory, more ventilators. We, this week, this week for me, lou, was one of the best weeks this president has had in a strategic sense because this company is going to make advanced pharmaceutical ingredients right here on u. S. Soil which is one of the big things that chinas trying to hold over our head. So i take, i take actually fairly big issue with you with respect to that report that was put out. Yeah, there was a few wiggle words in it, but that thing was hard as lou which report is that . The one you talked about the other night with pillsbury. Lou oh, the yeah. Lou you mean the national Security Strategy in which i couldnt find, i couldnt find one reference to china that made them sound like anything more than a representative of big pharma. I mean, come on, give me a break. I read that report lou well, we will. No, lets talk about this because pillsbury, two weekess ago he took a shot lou youre managing to take a compliment badly. Youre managing to take a compliment badly. So if you want to go there, lets start with your Strategic Response to our utter dependency on china for pharmaceuticals, for pharmaceutical intermediates, for medical equipment. Do you want to keep going . Yeah, lets keep going. We can talk about that. Lou did you see Benjamin Halls report . Well talk about lou i dont want to hear what youre doing, i want to hear what youve done. The president im telling you what weve done. Lou on china now, happening on, lou. Lou go for it. Youved asked me what weve done lou go or for it. On rare earth with the department of defense as we speak, were developing mines that havent been used for years. Were doing that. We had the gulf Power Initiative lou when will you, okay [inaudible conversations] lou im not a guy, as you know, that puts up with b. S. , when will we see the deficit with china eliminated .

That document that was issued yesterday by the president was tough as nails if you look through it. It called them out on their unfair trade, it called them out on concentration lou called them out on their unfair trade . Peter . Peter [inaudible conversations] this president is the only of course. Thats what weve done, lou. I dont know why youre mad. I mean, what are we having an argument about . Lou you know what . You said youre taking issue with me no, i said lou for calling the national Security Strategy a bunch of crap. Lets argue about that, im telling you, if you read that lou i havent heard you make a point yet. Well, let me make a point lou did you write it . Did you write it . No, i did not. Lou who did write it . Because aye like to id like to know whats your beef with that report, lou . You give me a specific. Whats your problem with that report . Lou youre the one who took issue. I gave you my problems with it. Well, lou, look lou you were watching last night, you said. You shouldnt have to ask that question. I watched last night. I watched Mike Pillsbury e basically compare that to an obamabiden report, that was crazy lou well, your problems with pillsbury. Your problem is with i didnt say it was with you. Go back and play the tape, lou. I was just starting to lou you said d with what pillsbury had to say, and you jumped all over me. Go back and look at the tape. Thats lou well, im going to jump all over b. S that report all right lou youre a recidivist. [laughter] lou, im just saying that report is tough as nails. We can disagree about that, but i can point to paragraphs in it that shows which lou okay. Let me give you a quote. Here you go. Here you go, lets sure. [laughter] lou lets go to the video. Ready . The u. S. President s china experts michael pillsbury, Peter Navarro are working in parallel with pompeo to punish, humiliate and isolate. We do not seek to this is the white house report, that from the china daily in which you, by the way, were included with the person youre criticizing, michael pillsbury. This is the white house report national Security Strategy as it is without author, without a name on it, by the way. I mean, what is this, a, you know, its a clandestine operation within the white house web site . [laughter] it says we do not seek to contain chinas development, nor do we wish to disengage from the chinese people. The United States expects to engage in are you ready . Fair competition with the prc whereby both of our nations businesses and individuals can enjoy security and prosperity. Let me tell you about the security and prosperity were enjoying. 100,000 americans are dying as a result of xi jinping not warning the world, nor the United States or his good friend, President Trump, that he had unleashed a deadly contagion on the world. I mean, are you [inaudible conversations] you and i agree on that. Look [laughter] that report lou are you telling me what i agree with . Im telling you i think thats asinine. Can i put some quotes up there . Lou do what you want. That says we were cracking town on concentration camps in china . Were cracking down on trade practices, that we dont appreciate them going out around the world and bullying everybody . Im just saying. Lou dont appreciate it . You know what, i think, i mean, i am trembling, and im sure everyone in beijing is. You dont appreciate is . Well lou come on. This is not a response to the chinese [inaudible conversations] you just read what the chinese lou you tell me [inaudible conversations] they they said e it was pretty tough. They criticized me and pompeo and others. Lou well, actually [inaudible] lou yeah, no. Im too nice a fella. [laughter] i dont know why were arguing. Were on the same page on all this stuff. I was just trying to point out lou well, were not. But were not. All right, fair enough. Fair enough. Well agree to disagree. Weve done that before. Lou well, its, you know, were not in the business of being such likable fellas that we ignore truth, and i know that you wouldnt want well, met the people decide let the peopled decide. But heres where we can agree on lou well, this is we can agree on that. Lou i beg your pardon . Doing things to combat chinas role, were trying to bring everything here. Thats what ive been focused on. We had a great week this week. Were the king of ventilators. We dont have to worry about needing chinas ventilators anymore. Next stop, were going to try to get the pharmaceutical chains here. After that, transformer es. Youve been saying this for 15, 20 years, we need our Manufacturing Base home for Economic Security and National Security, and thats all were trying to do here, lou. Lou well, im suggesting to you its time to do a hell of a lot more and to do it smarter. You know, this president ran on getting rid of dumb government and bringing in smart government. And if, if you think its smart government not to respond to a country that is responsible for the deaths of 100,000 americans and the infection of more than 1 million, and, you know, weve got other things to talk about because these issues are transcending. As the Obama Administration you know that we are responding to them, and we will respond to them. I mean, how can you say were not responding . I dont want get that at all lou good to see you, as always. All right, man. Lou thank you very much, Peter Navarro. Up next he really did, he had quite a sunday.
