Exposing the Rope-Sellers

Investigating Larry Fink and Other CCP ‘Old Friends’

WASHINGTON — The House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party announced last week a significant breakthrough in the CCP’s decades-long “unrestricted warfare” against America. The panel will investigate two companies that at the forefront of Wall Street’s long-running and concerted efforts to help our mortal enemy weaponize U.S. investors’ money against them — and the rest of our country.

Following important testimony recently by former Reagan National Security Council Senior Director for International Economics Roger Robinson, the Committee’s bipartisan leadership declared that: “As a direct result of decisions made by [BlackRock and MSCI], these Americans are now unwittingly funding PRC companies that develop and build weapons for the People’s Liberation Army… exacerbating an already significant national security threat and undermining American values.”

The Committee on the Present Danger: China (CPDC) has long called for an end to such enabling of history’s greatest “existential threat to freedom” and the firing of those responsible among the CCP-captured elites, especially BlackRock’s Larry Fink. The next CPDC webinar, titled “Exposing the Rope-Sellers: Investigating Larry Fink and Other CCP ‘Old Friends,’” will examine the imperative need for such corrective actions today, August 8, from 12:30-1:45 p.m. ET.
