CONGRESS SHOULD LOOK INTO CHINESE MONEY LAUNDERING SCHEME AND ATTORNEY
GENERAL'S REFUSAL TO INVESTIGATE
(Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. TRAFICANT. Madam Speaker, something stinks. First it was the
Chinese general, then it was the Chinese Communist party, and then
along came another 96 Chinese nationals. And they all had one thing in
common: They all made illegal contributions to the Democratic National
Committee.
{time} 1415
And after all that, the Justice Department said no investigation is
warranted.
Now, if that was not enough to tip off Barney Fife, my colleagues,
task force chairmen LaBella and Conrad and FBI Director Louis Freeh all
recommended an independent counsel for the matter and Janet Reno said
no. She said no three times, my colleagues.
Beam me up.
Janet Reno has betrayed America.
Congress should demand immediately an investigation into both this
Chinese money laundry business and, number two, Janet Reno.
I yield back the statement of the CIA that, as we speak, Chinese
missiles are pointed at us.
