0:00.0 | When President Trump was asked about the Chinese Communist Party bases located on the island of Cuba, |
0:07.3 | he revealed his plan, which would be to give China 48 hours to remove the bases before he imposed a 100% tariff on all Chinese imports. |
0:17.1 | Here's specifically what President Trump said in an interview with Reuters. |
0:21.8 | And do please note, |
0:27.9 | this interview was conducted in July of 2023, when Trump was still in the process of running for office and Joe Biden was the sitting president. Quote, I'd give them 48 hours to get out. And if they |
0:35.1 | didn't get out, I'd charge them a 100% tariff on everything they sell to the |
0:39.5 | United States and they be gone within two days. They be gone within one hour. Now, ironically, |
0:45.8 | since assuming office, President Trump did slap a 100% plus tariff on China, but he has yet to address the issue of Chinese spy bases located |
0:57.3 | on the island of Cuba. Now at this point, you might just be thinking to yourself, hold on, |

1:24.3 | answered that question, there was already an active effort being made by the Chinese |
1:29.1 | to convert the spy bases into military bases that could house actual Chinese soldiers. |
1:35.9 | And furthermore, this was not just a small isolated incident. |
1:39.0 | Instead, this Chinese-Cuban joint-based setup is actually part of a broader Chinese Communist Party plan called |
1:44.9 | Project 141. And now finally, in the year 2025, it appears that Congress is doing something |
1:50.3 | about it, evidenced by this letter right here that was made public on May 6th. The letter was |
1:54.9 | signed by five members of Congress, including the chairman of the Committee on Homeland Security, |
2:00.4 | as well as the chairman of the Select Committee Homeland Security, as well as the chairman of the |
