According to the Biden administration, China has been snooping on the United States from Cuba since 2019.
The revelation was made just two days after the Wall Street Journal reported that China had obtained a fresh arrangement to establish a spy facility on the island. According to the Journal article, the agreement would bring in billions of dollars for Cuba.
The White House claimed that the Journal made a mistake on Thursday, but on Saturday it became clear that the truth was considerably worse.
“This is an ongoing issue, and not a new development, and the arrangement as characterized in the reporting does not comport with our understanding,” an official told the Journal.
According to the person who spoke to the Journal, China upgraded its “intelligence collection facilities” in Cuba in 2019. The official claimed that the development was “well-documented in the intelligence record.”
The Chinese government, it was stated, “will continue attempting to increase its presence in Cuba, and we will continue attempting to disrupt it.”
The official emphasized that when the Biden administration began office, there was a Chinese presence in Cuba.
“When this administration took office in January 2021, we were briefed on a number of sensitive PRC efforts around the world to expand its overseas logistics, basing, and collection infrastructure globally to allow the [military] to project and sustain military power at greater distance,” the official said, calling the People’s Republic of China by an acronym.
2) Some former Trump officials I’ve spoken with are unaware of these alleged 2019 developments. Is this the balloon incident all over again, where Biden’s team claimed spy balloons made incursions under Trump, before backtracking and saying that if there were incursions then,…

Several members of Congress responded angrily to the White House comments.
“President Biden needs to stop ignoring the threat from China,” Republican Rep. Mike Turner of Ohio said.
“In less than 48 hours, officials from the Biden administration have contradicted themselves multiple times about whether or not the Chinese Communist Party is spying on the United States. This is unacceptable.”
Ritchie Torres, a Democrat from New York, argued that Congress should look into the matter.
“If the CCP is using a spy facility in Cuba, as media reports have alleged, then Congress has a duty to investigate the matter rather than accept at face value the denials of the Defense Department,” he said.
The Senate Intelligence Committee’s chairmen released a joint statement expressing their committee’s bipartisan concern.
“The United States must respond to China’s ongoing and brazen attacks on our nation’s security. We must be clear that it would be unacceptable for China to establish an intelligence facility within 100 miles of Florida and the United States, in an area also populated with key military installations and extensive maritime traffic,” Democratic Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia and Republican Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida said.
4) Regardless of whether these facilities are new or old, why is WH downplaying it? If China is building or has built an intelligence facility within 100 miles of our shores and key military installations, we need to make it clear to Cuba, China and others that this is…

Rep. Mike Gallagher, a Republican from Wisconsin, connected the Cuban story to the Chinese spy balloon that passed over the country earlier this year.
“Why did the Biden administration previously deny these reports of a CCP spy base in Cuba? Why did they downplay the ‘silly’ CCP spy balloon?” he said, referring to the Chinese Communist Party according to The New York Times.
According to Fox News, Texas Republican Rep., Tony Gonzales believes that China’s actions indicate a desire to prepare for conflict.
“The most valuable part of a conflict is information. The person that controls the information, the person that intercepts the information. If you can control the information of the conflict, you’re controlling that conflict. China understands that. The United States certainly understands that” he said.

So, is there ANYTHING American-made anymore?
The answer to that question is most definitely YES!
And it’s why I’m so passionate about my new mission.
I NEVER leave you with just the problem.
You know I’ve got the solution!
In fact, this is EXACTLY why I started my new mission close to four years ago.
The new mission is simply this: to help build out the Parallel-Economy.
Because here’s what I realized…
You THINK you have a choice between all these companies listed below in the circle, but what most people don’t realize is they’re all owned by only 11 companies.
11.
Interesting number.
Will probably be even less than that in the future when these merge even further.
It’s an ILLUSION of choice.
The same goes for all your media…
It’s just an ILLUSION of different choices, but owned by these 6 companies:
Now back to my Mission and my solution.
There has been a need for a Parallel-Economy and it would take time to build it but it is here finally.
They’ve been in business for 37 years and they’re a VERY pro-American, pro-Liberty, pro-Conservative values company!
They’re an American-based, Made-In-America, warehoused-in-America, shipped-from-America company!
In fact, they’re the last private, family-owned, pro-American consumer goods company left in America NOT owned by those 11 companies I showed you above.
Oh, and what if I told you the products are BETTER and often CHEAPER than what you get from those 11 companies above?
Yes, for real.
Once I learned all of that, I knew I no longer had to build this from the ground up by myself, I simply needed to partner with this awesome company to help them get the word out.
So on top of being the last Family-owned major consumer goods manufacturer not part of the Big-11, comparable or often lower prices, supporting American jobs and families, but here’s the best part.
Non-toxic products!
That means no Red Dye 40 or fluoride in the toothpaste or chemicals in the cleaning products, or Deet in the mosquito repellant.
Oh, and Black Angus beef, pasture-raised on hundreds of thousands of acres.
Free roaming with plenty of open-air between all the cattle.
Grass-fed.
No hormones and no antibiotics.
Never!
Oh, and it’s CHEAPER than Omaha Steaks!
But that’s a whole other topic!
Sound good to anyone else?
Me too!
The reason you’ve never heard of them is because it’s Invite Only.
I can get you in, but you can’t just go sign up.
They only want people on the same mission to join and they’re happy to say “no” to the Far-Left Libs!
They’ve been doing it for 37 years and it’s been working great.
Imagine that!
No call centers from India.
Just real, friendly, helpful, and NICE Americans helping Americans!
Wow, like going back in a time machine.
So it is Invite only…and good thing you know someone that has the invites….(me!).
If you’d like to find out more and get a FREE personal invite, just go here and I will get the info out to you!
It’s the real deal, and because they don’t raise the Black Angus as the big companies do, they may have the SHUT OFF invites if they grow too fast.
So if you want in, let me know soon.
There’s only one pro-American, American-made and manufactured, chemical-free, toxin-free, hormone-free, company left….and I’m teaming up with them to FIGHT BACK!
Who’s with me?
