Peter Schweizer tells Kudlow: Beijing’s hands are all over the poison flooding America
GAI President Peter Schweizer joined Larry Kudlow on Fox Business to lay bare China’s deep role in fentanyl trafficking, money laundering, and rare earth dependency.
Schweizer revealed that thousands of Chinese nationals in Mexico are working with drug cartels, while Chinese state banks are helping wash their profits clean.
“Their involvement in fentanyl is not just these precursor chemicals. There are, according to our DEA, 2,000 Chinese nationals in northern Mexico that effectively are serving as chemists providing support to the drug cartels,” Schweizer said.
“The pill presses that the cartels use to produce this poison and smuggle it across the border, those pill presses are made in China. And again, according to the DEA, those are sold by Chinese companies to the drug cartels at cost. And then there’s the whole issue of money laundering. The money laundering for the drug cartels used to be done in Latin American banks. It’s now Chinese state-owned banks,” he continued.
Schweizer said China’s promises to restrict precursor chemicals are worthless after “seven years of deception.”
“So, this is really a toss-off. This really does nothing about the issue. And I hope the president keeps pushing hard on it, because Joe Biden certainly didn’t. And we need to deal with China on this issue very firmly,” Schweizer concluded.
A chilling message — and a warning: China’s drug war on America may be hiding in plain sight.
