Sen. Josh Hawley told the Washington Free Beacon that former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s history of colluding with China should disqualify him from the Japanese Ambassadorship he is currently nominated for. Emanuel courted Chinese businesses as Chicago mayor, including trips to China. Emanuel then worked for a Wall Street firm that pushed “China-focused entertainment” in collaboration with American companies.
“Rahm Emanuel clearly does not understand the China threat and can’t be trusted to serve as ambassador to Japan,” Hawley said. “That Joe Biden would attempt to put someone so reckless in charge of relations with one of our most important allies is very concerning.” Emanuel as ambassador would be responsible for helping to craft Japan’s strategy against Chinese aggression, especially when it comes to naval incursions into sovereign waters of South-East Pacific neighbours.
In 2016 as mayor, Emanuel put state-owned Chinese transportation giant CRRC to upgrade the Chicago transit authority’s railway cars despite it not scoring as high as competing bids. CRRC has collaborated with Huawei, a Chinese technology company responsible for much of China’s spyware and data collection capabilities.
“Putting a CCP-owned, Huawei-affiliated data harvesting company in charge of building a major American city’s critical infrastructure isn’t just dangerously naïve, for an ambassador to Japan, it’s disqualifying,” Hawley said.
“Giving American taxpayer money to companies owned and operated by the Chinese Communist Party, a militant and genocidal regime, is a dereliction of duty,” Ian Easton, a senior director at the Project 2049 Institute, said. “It’s beyond naïve to think Chicago’s CCP-made trains won’t come with hidden backdoors that collect private data from American riders in peacetime and allow the Chinese military to weaponize the trains against us in a future crisis.”
Emanuel visited Tsinghua University in 2013 to give a speech. Tsinghua University is a significant partner in Chinese military research. Emanuel has also welcome Chinese Communist Party officials and businessmen to Chicago to “[pitch] Chicago to China.” Emanuel enlisted the help of Obama-era officials, including fellow former Obama chief of staff Bill Daley and financier Michael Sacks.
A Senate aide also spoke to the Washington Free Beacon, “If he expects to be taken […]

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Truth Based Media
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
