Sara Joined ‘Hannity’ to discuss thee concerning information that should terrify all Americans, which is that China has purchased almost 200,000 acres of America farmland; 300 of which is near an Air Force Base which boards “some of the nation’s most sensitive drone technology.”

“That should concern every American because I doubt we’re allowed to buy land in China, are we?” Hannity asked Carter. “No, we cannot Sean” which is why the federal government is investigating “massive land grabs by the Chinese.”

Carter explains that as of March, businesses with ties to the Chinese Communist government, had purchased $6.1 billion of land over the 12 months beforehand. Carter gives one specific example of land along the southern border which was purchased by a former Chinese military official which surrounds an Air Base.

But the biggest purchase being discussed was bought in Montana near a nuclear arsenal.

Reportedly President Joe Biden is making deals with Chinese President Xi Jinping to help improve anti-drug trafficking measures. China is one of the top fentanyl producers and distributors, culminating in a pandemic of fentanyl overdoses and deaths in the United States.

The Biden administration will be lifting sanctions on a Chinese government ministry, in exchange for bolstering anti-drug trafficking measures, Bloomberg reported. “We’re hoping to see some progress on that issue this coming week,” National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said Monday, according to the New York Post. “That could then open the door to further cooperation on other issues where we aren’t just managing things, but we’re actually delivering tangible results.”

The Daily Caller News Foundation noted that should a deal materialize, it will be at least the third time that China has promised to get tough on fentanyl. In 2016, China agreed to increase counter-narcotics operations, and Xi again agreed to launch a crackdown in 2018. Nonetheless, China and Mexico are “the primary source countries for fentanyl and fentanyl-related substances trafficked directly into the United States,” according to a 2020 DEA intelligence report.

“China remains the primary source of fentanyl and fentanyl-related substances trafficked through international mail and express consignment operations environment, as well as the main source for all fentanyl-related substances trafficked into the United States.”

President Joe Biden and Xi are meeting for the first time in over a year during this week’s Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in San Francisco. Sources familiar with the situation told Bloomberg that the People’s Republic of China (PRC) will crack down on Chinese companies manufacturing chemical precursors for fentanyl in exchange for the U.S. lifting sanctions on the Ministry of Public Security’s Institute of Forensic Science, which the Commerce Department added to the Entity List in 2020 for “engaging in human rights violations and abuses” in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.
