Rep. Scott Perry: US Should Designate the CCP as a ‘Transnational Criminal Organization’ | TEASER

“We need to quit this viewpoint that they’re a strategic competitor. China and the Communist Party [see] the United States of America as their enemy. And they treat us as such. It's time we start acting like there's an enemy out there,” says Rep. Scott Perry (R-Pa.), a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee. At the CPAC conference in Dallas, Texas, we sat down with Rep. Perry to discuss Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s recent trip to Taiwan, the Chinese regime’s threats to shoot down her plane, how Beijing is exploiting America’s strategic weaknesses, and what holding the Chinese regime to account would actually look like. Rep. Perry argues that the United States should “classify and characterize the Chinese Communist Party as a transnational criminal organization.” “If you look at the evidence, everything that they do qualifies them for that,” Rep. Perry says.
