Thanks to Bush, Executive Order 12803 sold US infrastructure to the highest bidder.

18483696? ago

Some serious misunderstanding and delusion is on display here.

A Hong Kong based company called Orient Overseas International (OOIL) was the terminal operator. OOIL was purchased by a Chinese firm called Cosco Shipping in June 2017 (not March 2017 as the source says). This raised red flags for US security agencies, because the idea of a state-owned Chinese firm having indirect control of an American port is obviously unacceptable.

Lengthy negotiations followed and this deal is the result - Cosco/OOIL were forced to sell the terminal to an acceptable consortium before the takeover could proceed. The same thing would have happened under any administration, and I'm struggling to see what this has to do with Obama (he had already left office), Q (posting a photo of Long Beach Port doesn't mean anything, especially when these negotiations have been public knowledge for 2 years), or Trump (it's the security agencies and regulators who dealt with this and he had no direct involvement).

Please explain how this has anything to do with Q, or Trump specifically.

"Ms. Feinstein was one of the six Senators and Representatives warned by the Federal Bureau of Investigation last year to be alert for donations that might have originated from in the Chinese Government. But her office said today that the letter to the White House was prompted by concern that officials at the Port of Long Beach had not considered security worries about the state-owned company."

18484270? ago

Not really delusion. Information is information. Some of us understand that there is more to this story (from 1997): https://www.nytimes.com/1997/03/13/us/senators-ask-for-inquiry-on-leasing-of-california-base-to-chinese.html

Certain things occur that compel more digging.

"But one of the first major actions of the Trump administration's Department of Homeland Security in March 2017 was issuing a "Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S." national security hold on Cosco's acquisition of a former U.S. Navy port facility."

You can pretend that this is no more than some surface level deal, that had to be done, and that it was public knowledge, so it doesn't matter....but it does matter. There is more to this story, and most everyone wouldn't have been paying this much attention to it had it not been for Q posting a simple aerial photo. Now, here we are. Here you are - testing the logic. That's cool. A picture is worth a thousand words, but I'd say more in this case. If you can't see that or understand the implications, then you haven't been really invested in what's been going on. You haven't been paying attention.

Read the articles. Read all the words. Pay attention vs playing "gotcha."

18483405? ago

There's no doubt in my mind that China poses a much greater threat than Russia...they've publicly stated that they plan on dominating us militarily and economically over the next few years. Trump said it right from the get-go, that we would be much better off being friends than enemies with the Ruskies, then the collusion bullshit came along and eliminated any possibility of Trump and Putin cooperating...like maybe that was part of the Deep State's plan all along.

A US/Russian alliance is probably the only thing that might keep China in check...just like WW2, we obviously had a lot of ideological differences, but we were able to join forces and win the war.

Well that explains that Q post! Thank Q and Thank you POTUS! That has worried me for a long time. Who in their right mind would sell that? I think Obummer should be tried for treason just for that one act alone! God Bless POTUS! Daily earning the title GEOTUS!!!

18483769? ago

Obama had already left office when the company operating the terminal (OOIL) was taken over by a Chinese firm. It's now been sold to a different Consortium as part of the same takeover deal. That's standard regulatory/security practice which would have been the same under any Presidential administration. What's this specifically got to do with Q, Trump or Obama?

18475289? ago

Boom!

18472092? ago

This is NOT a Q proof and the source cited (American Thinker) is an unreliable blog.

The truth is more mundane and boring. A Hong Kong based company called Orient Overseas International (OOIL) was the terminal operator. Last year OOIL was purchased by a Chinese firm called Cosco Shipping. As part of approving the deal, US regulators demanded that the terminal be sold. Its now being sold to an Australian-led consortium.

This is standard business and regulatory practice and has nothing to do with Q or Trump. I know you guys are desperate to convince yourselves Q is real, but this is just ridiculous. Get an education ffs.

18472219? ago

Required=Forced "OOIL was required to sell the terminal, one of the largest and most automated in the country, pursuant to the National Security Agreement with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Department of Justice." https://www.americanshipper.com/news/macquarie-consortium-buying-long-beach-container-terminal?autonumber=848093

18472234? ago

Yes, required to sell as part of a big takeover deal. So what?

18472285? ago

THE GOV STEPPED IN for national security reasons. What else you got?

18472318? ago

Yes obviously as I've posted above. They don't want China having control over ports. Standard regulatory practice for a deal like this. What does that have to do with Q?

18472331? ago

You'd know if you were paying attention.

18472269? ago

Also from the article: "The federal government demanded the sale of the terminal after a review last year of the purchase of OOIL by COSCO Shipping Holdings by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS)."

18472292? ago

Yes, they were forced to sell when Cosco (Chinese firm) took over OOIL because the US doesnt want China having control over ports. Completely rational decision as part of approving the takeover. Also nothing to do with Q and I doubt Trump had any involvement either.

18472311? ago

Did you read ANY of the words before spewing your opinon on this one? "But one of the first major actions of the Trump administration's Department of Homeland Security in March 2017 was issuing a "Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S." national security hold on Cosco's acquisition of a former U.S. Navy port facility."

18472359? ago

The original source cited isn't accurate.

Cosco purchased OOIL in June 2017. This raised a flag with US security agencies because obviously the idea of a state-owned Chinese firm having indirect control of a US port is unacceptable. Lengthy negotiations followed and this deal is the result. The same thing would happen under any administration. Please explain how this has anything to do with Q, or indeed Trump specifically.

18471608? ago

OK - but they sold to another non-US company. How is this a clear improvement? I'm interested in learning.

18471880? ago

I wouldn't pretend to truly understand deals of this magnitude, but I would suspect that with our trade issues (amongst many other issues) that we're having with China, it's probably not in our best interest to let them own and control a shipping terminal in this manner. So, it goes to an ally. Maybe some better trading with them after they finally break away from the EU and the EU collapses under it's own weight? Just shooting from the hip here.

18470944? ago

Except they weren't forced to sell, they sold to a British company which will now own the flow in the port.

Let me guess, he's selling a buy-option to Israel though...lol

18470990? ago

Since America's control structures are thoroughly infected with Jewish interests, at this phase he must at least appear to be one of them to get things done. After all, he may in fact be outnumbered by them - or nearly so. Expect the result of his actions to be disruptive to the cohesion of Cabal in the US. It will be similar to how he is dismantling the Federal Reserve by filing his cabinet with members from banking interests before he resets. It has become standard operating procedure for Trump: bring the enemy into a trusted position, monitor them to reveal more hidden connections to the Cabal, give them opportunity to commit a crime, dispense with that person (often with the justice system), weaken & expend cabal ammo as new cabal connections are revealed coming to the defense of the doomed comrad. It has an additional effect of stimulus response training the Cabal to teach them that the gain of infiltrating his organization is much less than the loss.

We will have to see if that is a roughly correct analysis. So far it appears to be.

18483272? ago

And none of them have picked up on that yet?

18484158? ago

I'm sure they have somewhat, but they still have to try - what else can they do? Meanwhile, Trump is like a rival drug dealer appealing to the greed of individual members of the opposing gang. He makes the distributors and muscle better offers - sometimes he sets them up for a sting, sometimes he lets the opposing gang off them, sometimes he has to actually pay out or the whole attack wouldn't work. His end goal is still to deconstruct the rival gang as quickly and efficiently as possible.

18485640? ago

The center of world power has shifted many times and the history books have always acted as if it was a smooth natural transition that happened by chance due to circumstances bigger than human's are aware of. By forcefully ripping it back we are also exposing the underlying mechanism by which one civilization is intentionally undermined and gutted to make room for the next and we will show the world its true masters.

I wonder if they now regret that they undermined and gutted the military of so many proud nations in order to consolidate that power in America.

18474866? ago

Something tells me that this is big! The Military had a training exercise at the Long Beach port. The same week where they had the one on Wilshire Blvd. The one where Blackhawks landed and people in bio suits extracted boxes of who knows what.

I don't know which bldg had items removed. But, IIR, one of those bldgs, in the vicinity, housed NXIVM.

There is also Feinstein and China connection. And what about Lil Schitt?

It's going to be interesting what all comes out as a result.

18490919? ago

I didn't know about China. Thanks!

18478889? ago

Actually it’s gigantic.

The Clintons allowed ChiCom to run the port as a literal diplomatic zone. The Chinese Government sent a General to run the port famous for corruption and he participated in arms sales etc

https://www.nytimes.com/1997/03/13/us/senators-ask-for-inquiry-on-leasing-of-california-base-to-chinese.html

The Chinese Government signed a lease for the port last April, only three weeks after one of the company's ships, the Empress Phoenix, was raided by customs officials acting on a tip that Chinese-made arms were being smuggled into the United States. The seizure of arms on the ship, which the Customs Service said were intended for street gangs, led in May to the arrest of officials of another state-run Chinese company, although Cosco has not been charged in the case.

This isn’t a small win. This is devestating to the Cabal

OOCL is on the LB side of the port. COSCO is on the LA/San Pedro side.

True story: COSCO has Chinese monitors / advisors who watch their employees and go through their computers daily.

18468280? ago

Hell yea!!!

18468055? ago

I had no idea it was chinese owned, how much stuff was smuggled through that port?

18468316? ago

It was a major port for human and drug trafficking which will now be halted. There was a Q drop a few weeks ago about this port.

18473548? ago

Under the Macquarie acquisition terms, Orient Overseas International will pocket a $1.29 billion profit and still control vessel and rail traffic at the container facilities for the next twenty years.

18474521? ago

Yeah, what's up with that second statement? About who controls "...facilities for the next twenty years."

18475328? ago

I think it has to do with their 40 year lease? okay found this "The deal requires OOIL to continue to use the Long Beach Terminal for a 20-year period for an agreed vessel and rail tariff. If it is unable to meet the minimum volume commitment, OOIL must pay for the shortfall, the company announcement said."

The Obama administration had no problems with OOCL signing a 40-year lease with the City of Long Beach in 2012 for control of America's second largest and most automated container handling operation. The sweetheart deal was part of the "Middle Harbor Redevelopment Program" to fund a $1.5-billion expansion through 2020.

But one of the first major actions of the Trump administration's Department of Homeland Security in March 2017 was issuing a "Committee on Foreign Investment in the U.S." national security hold on Cosco's acquisition of a former U.S. Navy port facility.

from the link in the article:

Orient Overseas (International), which is majority-owned by Cosco Shipping Holdings, will sell off its entire interest in Long Beach Container Terminal in California for US$1.78 billion (HK$13.97 billion) in cash, according to a stock exchange filing on Tuesday morning.

The sale to a US infrastructure fund is the fulfilment of a national security agreement signed last year and is expected to net OOIL a profit of US$1.29 billion (HK$10.15 billion), the company said in the announcement.

OOIL, founded as a shipping and logistics business in 1969 by the family of former Hong Kong Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa, has owned the Long Beach port for more than three decades.

China’s Cosco took indirect control of the Long Beach port in 2017 when it bought Hong Kong-based Orient Overseas.

But its sale to Cosco in July 2017 for HK$49.23 billion raised a red flag with US security agencies, which were unhappy with the idea of a state-owned firm taking indirect ownership of a major port. Cosco now owns 75 per cent of OOIL.

After lengthy negotiations, OOIL and Cosco signed the agreement with the US Departments of Homeland Security and Justice, promising to sell the terminals to “a suitable, unrelated third party” deemed “acceptable” to the US department.

China has six of the world’s 10 busiest container ports, spurred by booming trade.

The second largest port by volume, Long Beach imported 6.8 million TEU (twenty-foot equivalent units) in 2016, more than New York and second only to Los Angeles, according to data from the World Shipping Council.

The buyer was identified on Tuesday as an unlisted North American fund called Macquarie Infrastructure Partners (MIP).

MIP is managed by Macquarie Infrastructure and Real Assets, one of the world’s biggest asset managers with A$185.9 billion (US$130.91 billion) assets in infrastructure, real estate, agriculture and energy. It is part of the Sydney-headquartered financial conglomerate Macquarie Group.

“The announcement of the buyer for the Long Beach Terminal is positive to both OOIL and Cosco Shipping as it removes the uncertainties about who will buy the assets,” said Jeffrey Chan, a founding partner of Hong Kong-based Oriental Patron Financial Group. “The deal also provides cash for the company to do other expansion of ports or its shipping businesses.”

Cosco’s purchase of OOIL springboarded owners Tung Chee-hwa and his brother Chee-chen into 17th place in the 2018 Forbes Hong Kong Rich List as their combined wealth surged 73 per cent to US$5.1 billion.

“Over the past 30 years, we have developed Long Beach Container Terminal into the safest, most efficient and lowest-emission terminal in the United States,” said Andy Tung, co-chief executive of OOIL. China, US focus on progress before fresh round of trade war talks

The deal requires OOIL to continue to use the Long Beach Terminal for a 20-year period for an agreed vessel and rail tariff. If it is unable to meet the minimum volume commitment, OOIL must pay for the shortfall, the company announcement said.

Karl Kuchel, chief executive of MIP, said his company wanted to buy the Long Beach port because it serves as a gateway for trans-Pacific trade. “We are also committed to completing the current expansion of Long Beach Container Terminal by 2022, which will significantly increase the capacity of the terminal,” Kuchel said. OOIL said it has not yet decided how to use the cash it gains from the transaction. The Long Beach terminal had an audited net book value of US$345.24 million as of the end of last year. Its net profit last year reached US$85.86 million, up four times from a year earlier.
