Jennifer Jablonski<\/a> <\/p>\n

1. Why did members of your family keep getting lucrative business opportunities overseas while you were vice president?
2. How did your brother, Frank, secure$45,000,000 in taxpayer loans from the Obama administration for his Caribbean projects?
3. How did a newly-minted firm employing your other brother, James, receive a $1.5 billion contract to build homes in Iraq despite having no experience in construction or international development?
4. Why did your son Hunter accompany you on your official trip to Beijing in December 2013? What did he do on that trip? Who did he meet with? What should the American public make of the fact that just 10 days after this trip, your son\u2019s boutique private equity firm secured a $1 billion investment deal from the state-owned bank of China (later expanded to $1.5 billion) despite having no prior experience in China, and with this deal, the Chinese government granted your son\u2019s firm a first-of-its-kind arrangement to operate in the the recently formed Shanghai Free-Trade Zone\u2014a perk not granted to any of the large established financial institutions?
5. Should the American public be concerned that your son\u2019s private equity firm partnered with a Chinese government-owned aerospace and defense conglomerate to facilitate the purchase of an American company that produced strategically sensitive dual-use military technology that the Chinese government wanted?
6. Does your \u201cBuild Back Better\u201d proposal contain any provisions to ensure that American taxpayer-funded technology is not bought off by Chinese state-backed enterprises working with private equity firms like your son\u2019s?
7. Back in 2000, you voted in favor of giving permanent Normal Trade Relations (NTR) to China. At the time, you said that this would not lead to \u201cthe collapse of the American manufacturing economy\u201d because China is \u201cabout the size of the Netherlands\u201d and could not possibly become \u201cour major economic competitor.\u201d Furthermore, you predicted that free trade with China would establish \u201ca path toward ever greater political and economic freedom\u201d for the people of China. Do you still stand by these statements today after 3.4 million American jobs have been lost to China and millions of China\u2019s citizens have been imprisoned, surveilled, disappeared, and used as slave labor by an increasingly authoritarian regime enriched by 20 years of record trade imbalances from flagrant trade violations?
8. The People\u2019s Republic of China has a bold plan called \u201cMade in China 2025\u201d to dominate the key technologies of the future in order to overtake the United States militarily and economically. Do you still contend that China is \u201cnot competition for us\u201d?
9. Why did you promote the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) to financial special interest groups when research was clear that the deal would make it easier for corporations to move U.S. jobs overseas?
10. Do you believe Xi Jinping kept his promise to Barack Obama to end cyber-espionage against the United States? If not, what are you prepared to do about it?
11. Do you accept that the coronavirus originated in China? Do you think China was honest with the world in its handling of the coronavirus? Are you satisfied with China\u2019s explanations for how it spread? Do you believe their claims about the number of cases and fatalities in China?
12. Do you think China should be held responsible in any way for its handling of the coronavirus? If not, why not? What, if any, repercussions should there be for China in its handling of the coronavirus?
13. Did you suggest investigating Michael Flynn under the Logan Act, as Peter Strzok\u2019s notes suggest?
14. You said in your DNC acceptance speech that America is ready to \u201cdo the hard work of rooting out our systemic racism.\u201d What did you do in your 36 years as a U.S senator and 8 years as vice president to root out systemic racism? Why didn\u2019t it work?
15. You have called for \u201crevolutionary institutional changes.\u201d What does that mean in practice?
16. You have vowed to rescind the Trump tax cuts. Can you think of a single example of a country that recovered from a recession by raising taxes?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
