They're kind of like the aliens in Independence Day

The Chinese have a history of negotiating deals with corrupt governments around the world, which enables the Chi-Coms to plunder the target countries' natural resources: "Communist China Helps Itself to Ecuador".

Oh, and there's also the little matter of China becoming an even greater security threat to the U.S. and the world. The Biden maladministration reacts with something stupid and inadequate, of course:

Biden, as part of his presidential campaign, promised to counter Chinese influence in Latin America, however, after closing the China Initiative, banning mining, allowing the spy balloon to traverse America's most sensitive military installations for a week before shooting it down, failing to stop either China's illegal police stations or rebranded Confucius Institutes, that does not seem to be what is happening.

In fact, China has been making even more headway under Biden. When it comes to Ecuador, specifically, in October 2021 the Biden Administration offered a $150 million loan earmarked to support women-owned businesses in Ecuador.

"We're focused on projects that exemplify our values," said US deputy national security adviser Daleep Singh. "So female-owned businesses in the developing world need help, and we're going to provide that help."

Focusing on feminist values is not exactly what will successfully counter China's ongoing colonization of Ecuador and the rest of Latin America: the suggestion is embarrassing.

It's infuriating that our country may well fall to second-rate status (or worse) on the international stage because of the Dem-tard in the White House and, perhaps more relevantly, his puppet masters.
