Oops: Biden Recites a Chinese Saying Made Famous By Mao Zedong at Fundraiser
During a Monday fundraiser in front of wealthy donors, Biden cited a quote that has since made people question his judgment.
The presumptive Democrat nominee appeared at a digital fundraiser with Obama adviser Valarie Jarrett. When asked a question about women’s economic issues and relief, he quoted the Chinese dictator Mao Zedong’s famed saying, according to Fox News.
“We’ve got to get real economic relief into women’s hands now,” Biden reportedly said according to Fox. “Women hold up half the sky.”
Mao Zedong proclaimed “women hold up half the sky” at the beginning of his reign to encourage women to work outside the home and advance the nation by working in fields and industry.
Zedong led the communist revolution in China and served as the leader of the Chinese Communist Party from 1935 and chairman of the People’s Republic of China from 1949 to 1959.
“An estimated 65 million Chinese died as a result of Mao’s repeated, merciless attempts to create a new ‘socialist’ China,” according to the Heritage Foundation.
With China becoming a center focus in the campaign, it may not be strategic to quote former murderous dictators from the country.

Judge orders Biden’s DHS to release files on agents accused of censoring election ‘misinformation’
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey and Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry made headway in countering federal agents involved in suppressing what liberal tech labeled “misinformation” on social media.
The Attorneys General moved to release testimony from five Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) employees after learning of their participation in the Biden administration’s counter-“disinformation” efforts. On Wednesday, a Louisiana judge ordered the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to release the files.
Court documents dated Jan. 19 show the agents participated. The judge’s motion Wednesday could shed light on a “switchboarding” tactic employed during the 2020 election, according to the order.
The lawsuit alleges that the defendants, which include the named individuals as well as President Joe Biden and top officials from a variety of federal agencies, “colluded and/or coerced social media companies to suppress disfavored speakers, viewpoints, and content on social media platforms by labeling the content “dis-information,” “mis-information,” and “mal-formation.”
The Daily Caller reports that the five CISA employees allegedly served as a “switchboard” to route requests from federal agencies to censor disinformation to various social media companies, according to the documents.
Switchboard work employed “an audit official to identify something on social media they deemed to be disinformation aimed at their jurisdiction,” top CISA election security agent Brian Skully testified in a deposition released Thursday.
“They couldforward that to CISA and CISA would share that with the appropriate social mediacompanies.”
UPDATE: The judge granted our motion to compel. CISA has 14 days to comply. https://t.co/2bhwQQJTG6
