1. INTRODUCTION

The analysis into the 26 Mar 24 collapse of the Francis Scott Key bridge spanning the Patapsco River in Baltimore, Maryland provides another clear-cut example of the type asymmetrical, irregular and undeclared warfare that has been waged against the United States by China, the CCP, the PLA and China’s network of proxies and assets that includes foreign hostile nations that began no later than August 2019.

The asymmetrical flashpoint was biowarfare in the form of a bioengineered SARS-CoV-2 virus and the resulting mRNA bioweapons foisted upon us by mandates caused by the fraudulently predicated “pandemic” [RICO applies].

The “pandemic” was leveraged to steal an election, install Joe Biden as China’s proxy and to resume the internally controlled demolition of the US by means of Cloward-Piven strategy as Obama-era policies were resumed and with Barack Obama pulling those strings from the backdrop in what amounts to his fourth term; his third was undermining Donald Trump’s first.

On this timeline, the US has experienced unprecedented attacks on its infrastructure in ways to overlay hazardous materials; especially relative to train derailments.

The following is old hat but it still wears very, very well:

The modus operandi of targeting critical infrastructure and hazardous materials also applies to the FSK bridge collapse in ways that also vector in militarily, as explained below.

It all begs this question: Will it be too late by the time Americans wake-up to what is actually going on?

The answer to that question according to the status quo and based upon the assumption that things don’t soon change, ‘YES,’ it will be too late.

Have Americans discerned and reconciled that the nearly four years of Biden’s stolen time occupying the Executive represent the designs to reduce the nation to smouldering embers so that it can be ‘6bulilt 6ack 6etter’ using the architecture of Marxist communism?

The template for the build is China and its technocratic surveillance state.

With the FSK bridge down, Americans should be wondering how many more of these incidents will we see and to what degree will they continue to escalate in their destructive nature and militarily strategic value[s]?

2. IMMEDIATE IMPRESSION

I was driving out of state when my front seat passenger showed me the initial video of the FSK bridge strike and collapse.

The immediate impression was two fold: this is asymmetrical warfare that is attributable to China.

Is there evidence for both?

Yes, I believe there is.

There was also a degree of misinformation/disinformation that I re-posted and will correct here before correcting on Xwitter.

Being out of pocket when the FSK bridge was struck and collapsed in Baltimore, I shared this initial analysis on Xwitter:

3. EVIDENCE: ASYMMETRICAL WARFARE

A video provided below plainly depicts the FSK bridge strike as being deliberate and intentional but it requires some contextual backdrop and positioning.

It’s important to understand that the bridge spans a river [Patapsco River] depositing into a bay [Chesapeake Bay] and so the river maintains a unidirectional and constant flow out into the bay.

The river’s entire main stem flows fewer than 40 miles from Mariottsville through Elkridge, Ellicott City and other Maryland towns, drawing from a watershed of just 680 square miles, before it reaches the harbor and the Chesapeake Bay.

American Rivers

*Link

According to the NTSB chronology, the Dali struck the FSK bridge at “about 1:25 a.m.” relative to the high and low tide where low-tide flow out would exacerbate the outward and unidirectional flow of the river.

This early-morning time also provides the cover of darkness at a time witnesses would be at a minimal number.

In this case, the collision occurred “about” the time the tide was beginning to cycle back out to low tide.

*Link

For the video below, this photo sourced from USA Today establishes the position of the Dali relative to the bay, the flow of the river into the bay and any exacerbating tidal effect; noting that a deliberate U-turn was required to position the Dali in this southeastern orientation:

The above image is critical in understanding how the ship was deliberately maneuvered to intentionally strike the FSK bridge.

Before examining the video, note the chronology put forth by NTSB and reported by CBS News: A timeline of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse.

From it, we identify a sequence of incidences relevant to losses of communication and power accompanied by multiple alarms on the Dali’s bridge.

This NTSB chronology is the operational cover-story and this is readily apparent when examining the video; remembering to apply the positions of unidirectional flow of the river relative to the the Dali’s course and orientation, any exacerbating tidal effect, the required U-turn and the sequence of communication and power losses:

*Link

The Dali was clearly positioned to utilize the directional flow of the river and any exacerbating tidal effect to strike the FSK bridge after making a deliberate U-turn to set its southeastern course.

This is asymmetrical warfare.

Does it tie to China?

Of course it does but first we examine what appears to be deliberate misinformation/disinformation to deflect from China and set the course for a wild goose chase.

4. STRATEGIC MILITARY TARGETING

Beyond the clearly evidenced strategic military targeting by China, the FSK bridge debris has come to rest upon a high-pressure subsea natural gas pipeline.

The strategic military targeting by China begins with this:

Here is the source: Two Of The Fastest U.S. Sealift Ships Trapped By Baltimore Bridge Collapse.

Two of the most capable military cargo ships in U.S. inventory are among the vessels now stuck in Baltimore following the collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge yesterday. The two members of the Algol class, which are also some of the fastest cargo vessels of their general size anywhere in the world, and two other reserve sealift ships were in port in Baltimore when the incident occurred. Readers can first get up to speed on what happened to the Francis Scott Key Bridge, which was struck by the container ship MV Dali, with The War Zone‘s initial reporting on the incident here.

The War Zone

Given the critical support role these two US sealift ships play relative to military readiness, the timeline for reopening the channel becomes the foremost concern: “The complexity of this salvage operation suggests the main shipping channel will be closed for weeks if not months.” [Source]

In addition to the strategic vectoring on military targets, the attack also targeted hazardous materials comporting with a number of attacks in the form of trail derailments where hazardous materials were being transported: Hazardous Material Containers ‘Breached’ During Baltimore Bridge Collapse: NTSB.

The cargo ship that crashed into Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge on March 26 was carrying more than 50 hazardous material containers, some of which were breached during the collapse, according to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) […]

The NTSB chair said a senior hazmat investigator had identified the containers.

“That’s 764 tons of hazardous materials—mostly corrosives, flammable, and some miscellaneous hazardous materials—class nine hazardous materials which would include lithium-ion batteries.”

Zero Hedge

If immobilizing and trapping two of the US Navy’s most important supply vessels was an objective then it may inform the WWIII timeline relative to the clean-up operation, for which there is no available timeline: Baltimore begins massive and dangerous cleanup after bridge collapse.

Officials have yet to offer a timeline for how long that process will take, but infrastructure and salvage experts said the cleanup would pose a monumental challenge that includes frigid waters for divers having to cut steel beams and the 764 tons of hazardous materials that remain onboard the Dali.

WaPo

With a draft of 37 ft., the two Navy Algol class vessels can not pass through the temporary 11-ft. deep channel recently opened: Watch: Pieces of Francis Scott Key Bridge removed from Baltimore port after collapse.

An 11-foot-deep temporary route marked with lights has been established in the port, according to Coast Guard Capt. David O’Connell. The alternate route represents part of a phased approach to opening the port’s main channel, he said.

5. DALI OWNERSHIP DETAILS

In order to attribute the attack to China with a high degree of confidence, ownership and management of the Dali was examined; especially in relation to the allegations of Angela Chao as CEO of the Foremost Group.

Reporting verifies important fact sets:

1. The Dali was chartered and operational under Danish shipping company Maersk. [1]

2. The Dali was Singapore-flagged and is about 984 feet long and 157 feet wide [per a listing on VesselFinder] [1]

3. “The Dali’s owner is listed as Grace Ocean, a Singapore-based firm, and its manager is listed as Synergy Marine, which is also headquartered in Singapore.” [1]

4. Separate reporting confirms the same details: “The Dali is owned by Grace Ocean Private, a Singapore-based company that provides water transportation services. The ship was chartered by Danish container shipping company Maersk at the time of the collision.” [2]

5. “Synergy Marine, founded in 2006, provides a range of ship management services, including managing ships’ technical components and their crews and overseeing safety, according to S&P Capital IQ. Its parent company, Unity Group Holdings International, an investment holding company, was founded in 2008 and is based in Hong Kong.” [2]

6. Supply chain considerations become immediately critical: “Experts say the bridge collapse could cause significant supply chain disruptions.”…”Unfortunately, its prolonged closure will likely disrupt commercial activities and supply chains that rely on the bridge and Port of Baltimore each day.” [2]

7. “1.3 million trucks cross the bridge every year — 3,600 a day. Trucks that carry hazardous materials will now have to make 30 miles of detours around Baltimore because they are prohibited from using the city’s tunnels, she said, adding to delays and increasing fuel costs.” [2]

8. “Trucking companies could be severely affected by the disaster.” [2]

6. ANGELA CHAO MISINFORMATION/ DISINFORMATION

I re-posted the initial information on Angela Chao below without first vetting it for reliability as constrained by travel, location and time.

*Link

In the course of due diligence in preparation for this analysis, no correlation between Chao and the Dali could be made.

The allegations put forth on Angela Chao by others proved erroneous in a fairly rigorous examination of the Foremost Group and the reports that Chao, a former shipping executive and CEO of the family business, or the company itself, were tied to the Singaporean-based Grace Ocean as the registered owners of the Dali.

Important Sidebar Consideration: Chao can be used to dismiss China relative to the Dali just like the Dali can be used to dismiss Chao relative to China.

Chao’s death remains highly suspicious and a cursory examination of Chao’s biography, her father Dr. James Chao and the family businesses and philanthropic organizations ticks all of the boxes for the Chao’s to be in service to the China and the CCP.

7. THE DALI, MAERSK, SYNERGY MARINE, THE UNITED NATIONS, CHINA & THE CCP

We already established that the Dali links to China and the CCP, but not in ways one might expect.

This requires us to put forth linkage in a chronology to establish a proper chain.

The chain is laid-out in this graphic illustration and is expanded on beneath it recalling one very important, exclusive and longstanding position: ENERGY IS THE CURRENCY OF CORRUPTION [meaning it’s how criminals and warmongers get paid (see Follow the Money).]

The position here indicates that there is high confidence in attribution to China but it is not proof-positive by any means and this is precisely why the RICO patterns emerge through the architecture and where obfuscation, layering, compartmentalizing, fragmenting and laundering are the objectives.

Contracts, ownership and management form the architecture for China’s attribution in the Dali attack.

The architecture is comprised of entities tied directly or indirectly to the Dali: Maersk, Synergy Marine, the United Nations, Searchlight, Three Hills Capital, Asymmetrical Partner, Venture Global LNG, the Plaquemines LNG facility in Louisiana and a host of Chinese energy and finance entities.

The direct and indirect correlations to the Dali feature the node of the Plaquemines LNG facility in Louisiana.

These details are laid-out in the Summary Findings and then expanded on in Section 9 of this analysis.

8. SUMMARY FINDINGS

The summary findings indicate:

1. The Dali was chartered by Maersk

2. Maersk contracted operational management to Synergy Marine

3. Searchlight is Synergy’s minority owner

4. Searchlight’s first private equity deal after the 1st round of funding [Hunter] is dependent upon China’s market

5. Venture Global contracts to build Paquemines LNG facility in Louisiana

6. Maersk contracts to ship Plaquemines LNG

7. China contracts to purchase Plaquemines LNG

8. Venture Global contracts are with China/CCP

9. The owners/operators of the Dali by charter, contracts and contracted management have vested Chinese interests

10. This private equity and corporate architecture comports with asymmetrical warfare

11. The physical evidence pertaining to losses of power and communication on the Dali overlaid by the unidirectional flow of the river, the transition to low tide and the cover of darkness also comport with asymmetrical warfare

12. Synergy Marine is a participating UN Member under the vernacular for Marxist communism

13. China had the means, motive and opportunity to exert influence and control over the Dali and its crew to facilitate an act of asymmetrical warfare that accomplishes strategic infrastructure, economic and military objectives

14. The most plausible attribution is to China with high confidence

The source information that follows this graphic illustration back-fills the granular details that evidence the analytical summary findings.

9. GO DEEPER: EVIDENCE & SOURCES FOR SUMMARY FINDINGS

The Dali was chartered by Maersk, which is a Danish shipping company.

In May 2021, Maersk reached an agreement on the Plaquemines Port project: Plaquemines Port project finds a powerful potential partner.

Plaquemines Port has reached an agreement to work together with the Maersk Group’s port operations unit, APM Terminals, to discuss the future design of the Plaquemines Port Harbor and Terminal District (PPHTD).

Marine Log

In November 2021, Synergy Marine completed a deal with Maersk to assume full control of operational management: The takeover of Maersk Tankers’ technical management business by Synergy Group has been completed.

Synergy Marine Pte. Ltd., a subsidiary of Synergy Group, completed its takeover of Maersk Tankers’ technical management business on 10 November 2021. 

With the completion of the takeover, Synergy Group, a leading ship manager operating a fleet of almost 500 vessels, takes ownership of the entire technical management business. This includes the technical management of 81 vessels, as well as customer and supplier contracts.

[…]

Synergy manages a fleet of almost 500 vessels, which includes the most complex LNG (including FSUs), LPG and vast 20,000+ TEU container ships, as well as oil and chemical tankers, car carriers and bulk carriers. With a strong focus on crew wellbeing, digitisation and environmentally responsible policies, Synergy is at the forefront of transforming the ship management industry.

Maersk

Also in November 2021, Maersk announced its Plaquemines Port and APM Terminals operating agreement.

Charlotte, North Carolina USA and Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana USA –  Plaquemines Port, Harbor and Terminal District (PPHTD) and APM Terminals have announced a Letter of Intent whereby APM Terminals will become the operator of the newly planned Container Terminal and Intermodal Rail Facility and external parties will be the investor in the new port. Plaquemines Port and their financial partners will manage the financial activities associated with the infrastructure development, investment, and ownership of the port.

In December 2021: China Enters into Largest and Longest LNG Import Deal with U.S.

China has entered into the largest, long-term deal for the importation of U.S. LNG which will be supplied from two sites in Louisiana operated by Venture Global. According to the company, this marks the first LNG supply agreement signed by a U.S. exporter with a division of state-owned China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC), China’s largest importer of LNG.

The deal, which was first rumored in October, was confirmed with a statement from Venture Global and reported on the Department of Energy’s website. Venture Global LNG and CNOOC Gas & Power Group Co. entered into a 20-year Sales and Purchase Agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, Venture Global will supply two million tons per annum of LNG from its Plaquemines LNG export facility, in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. In addition, CNOOC Gas & Power will purchase an additional 1.5 million tons (MT) of LNG from Venture Global’s Calcasieu Pass LNG facility for “a shorter duration.

In May 2022: Venture Global decides to build Louisiana Plaquemines LNG export plant.

Plaquemines is the first U.S. LNG project to reach financial close since Venture Global’s Calcasieu Pass in August 2019. Calcasieu delivered its first LNG earlier this year.

Venture Global said it has 20-year agreements to sell LNG covering about 80% of the full 20-MTPA Plaquemines project.

Customers signed up to take LNG from the first 13.33-MTPA phase at Plaquemines include units of China National Offshore Oil Corp (CNOOC), China Petroleum and Chemical Corp (Sinopec) (600028.SS), opens new tab, Shell PLC (SHEL.L), opens new tab, Polish Oil and Gas Co (PGNiG) and Electricite de France (EDF.PA), opens new tab. read more

Also in May 2022: VENTURE GLOBAL ANNOUNCES FINAL INVESTMENT DECISION AND FINANCIAL CLOSE FOR PLAQUEMINES LNG.

Arlington, Virginia– Today Venture Global LNG is announcing a final investment decision (FID) and successful closing of the $13.2 billion project financing for the initial phase (an upsized 13.33 MTPA) of the Plaquemines LNG facility and the associated Gator Express pipeline. This transaction represents the largest project financing in the world closed to date in 2022. The proceeds of the debt and equity financing fully fund the balance of construction and commissioning of the initial phase. This is the first LNG project located in the United States to reach financial close since Venture Global’s Calcasieu Pass facility in August 2019. 

[…]

The lender group for the company’s construction financing includes the world’s leading banks, spanning multiple continents. The lenders who provided funding at closing are: Bank of America, N.A., Banco Santander, S.A., Bank of China, CaixaBank, S.A., Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited, ING Capital LLC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Landesbank Baden Württemberg, Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., MUFG Bank, Ltd., Natixis, Nomura Securities International, Inc., Royal Bank of Canada, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, The Bank of Nova Scotia and Truist Bank.

Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, ING, JP Morgan, Mizuho, Morgan Stanley and RBC served as Lead Banks to Venture Global for the transaction. Latham & Watkins LLP served as counsel to Venture Global and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP served as counsel to the lenders.

In October 2022: Searchlight Capital Partners to Acquire a Minority Stake in Synergy Marine Group.

Funds advised by Searchlight Capital Partners, L.P. (“Searchlight”) and Synergy Marine Group (“Synergy”) have today announced the completion of Searchlight’s acquisition of a minority ownership stake in Synergy, a leading global ship manager and provider of end-to-end maritime solutions. The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.

Synergy was founded in 2006 by Captain Rajesh Unni and is now the fourth largest ship manager globally, with around 500 vessels under technical management, including tankers, dry bulk, containers and gas carriers.

[…]

Captain Rajesh Unni, Founder and CEO of Synergy said:…”we are excited to partner with Searchlight, who have a strong and demonstrable track record of rigorous transformation and operational excellence execution. With this transaction, we welcome new partners, Searchlight and our fellow Synergy colleagues, into the ownership of Synergy.”

Searchlight Capital Partners LP

This is Searchlight’s private equity portfolio with offices in New York, London, Toronto and Miami:

Save two, Searchlight’s portfolio is in North America and Europe.

Synergy Marine is located in Singapore and Bezeq is an Israeli communications entity.

Following its first round of funding, Searchlight’s acquisition of Hunter Boot Ltd. was the firm’s first closed deal.

Searchlight’s 2020 acquisition of Hunter Boot Ltd., which was saved by the Pall Mall Legacy, which is a Goldman Sachs backed fund, entails dependency upon the Chinese market where the company rebounded thanks to a “chunk” of business in China: Royal warrant-holder Hunter Boot on brink of £7m funding lifeline.

The company was saved in 2020 through a £16.5m capital injection, part of which came from Pall Mall Legacy, a fund backed by Goldman Sachs and Three Hills Capital Partners, an existing shareholder.

Pall Mall Legacy owns the majority of Hunter’s shares, with Searchlight Capital Partners, a private equity firm, and Pentland Group, the sportswear giant behind brands such as Speedo, holding the remainder.

Hunter, which was founded in 1856 as the North British Rubber Company, is understood to have seen a post-COVID rebound in sales, with revenue in China accounting for a chunk of that recent growth.

Sky News

Examining Three Hills Capital Partners and Pall Mall Legacy [Goldman Sachs] relative to Searchlight, we learn that: Atypical Partner Sets Up “Launching Platform” For Next Generation Of Financial Entrepreneurs.

Atypical currently houses Three Hills Capital Partners, a pioneer in European mid-market preferred capital, started by Mauro Moretti in 2013, Pall Mall Legacy, a Goldman Sachs-backed secondary investment vehicle, and Sinclair Capital, a hedge fund focused on merger arbitrage, led by Massimo Stabilini.

Markets Insider

From the same source, “ABOUT ATYPICAL PARTNER: Atypical Partner is a house for innovative asset managers and financial entrepreneurs. More than a financial holding, Atypical Partner is a platform that offers seed capital, best in class services and unwavering support to its community. The Atypical Partner umbrella has in excess of EUR 1.2 billion of assets under management through Three Hills Capital Partners, a mid-market preferred capital specialist, Pall Mall Legacy, a Goldman Sachs-backed investment vehicle focused on secondary and co-investments, and Sinclair Capital, an event driven hedge fund.”

Sinclair Capital looks and sounds like a private sector intel outfit with all of the appropriate “services.”

The position on Sinclair Capital requires development beyond a cursory examination respective to its services: corporate governance consulting and sustainability, fiduciary services, institutional investing and board services.

New York based Sinclair has clients like Coca-Cola, Pfizer, World Bank Group and a long list of others.

In August 2023, Synergy Marine underwent a change in leadership to fracture it from a single CEO into a team of three: World’s third largest ship manager Synergy undergoes strategic leadership changes.

In February 2024, consider that China Gas Holdings signs two 20-year LNG supply deals with Venture Global.

Venture Global has about 70 MTPA of LNG export capacity in operation, construction or development in Louisiana, including the 10-MTPA Calcasieu (operation and construction), 20-MTPA Plaquemines (construction), 20-MTPA Delta (development) and 20-MTPA CP2 (development).

In 2021, Venture Global also signed several large deals with firms in China, which imported more LNG in that year than any other country. It signed a 20-year deal with state oil giant Sinopec to supply 4 million tonnes of LNG a year and further agreed to provide 3.8 million tonnes a year to Unipec, a subsidiary of Sinopec.

Also in 2021, Venture Global signed a 20-year deal to sell 2 million tonnes of LNG a year to a unit of China National Offshore Oil Corp (CNOOC).

Reuters

Venture Global emerged from essentially nowhere to locate its Louisiana LNG project before the State had even put forth the details and furthermore, leaned on the State to bring the deal together: Of all of Louisiana’s LNG players, this company is poised to be the biggest.

Amid a booming market in Louisiana, Venture Global has gradually laid out a game plan to emerge as the champion of the LNG fight. Its playbook includes another LNG terminal in Cameron and two in Plaquemines Parish in the opposite corner of the state.

[…]

Despite the economic and environmental headwinds, one thing is becoming clear: Venture Global isn’t going away, and their endeavors may define the futures of Cameron and Plaquemines parishes — and perhaps Louisiana as a whole.

Robert Pender and Michael Sabel founded Venture Global Partners LLC in 2010. Their LNG subsidiary, Venture Global LNG Inc., was incorporated in 2013 and is headquartered in Arlington, Virginia. They act as executive co-chairs, with Sabel serving as CEO.

How Venture Global first discovered Louisiana isn’t evident. Venture Global executives were not made available for an interview, but the company sent The Advocate | The Times-Picayune a statement touting its impact on Louisiana’s economy.

But why they chose Louisiana is obvious. The state’s proximity to the Gulf of Mexico, its access to low-cost natural gas, its experienced workforce and its generous tax incentives all make Louisiana the prime LNG destination.

“It’s just become kind of ground zero for LNG development just because of historic precedent and then the advantages that area provides,” said David Dismukes, executive director of LSU’s Center for Energy Studies.

Venture Global’s love affair with Louisiana has only grown over the years. It announced its first terminal, Calcasieu Pass, in 2014, followed by Plaquemines LNG in 2016, Delta LNG in 2019 and CP2 LNG in 2021. They’ve also been the leaders this year in announcing new long-term contracts.

Collectively, the terminals will carry at least a $29 billion price tag — even as Delta LNG’s budget is still a mystery — and an anticipated output of 70 million tons annually, dwarfing the national leader, Cheniere Energy’s Sabine Pass, and its 34 million-ton annual production.

It’s interesting that the Arlington, VA Venture Global was immediately positioned to maintain a long-lasting impact on Louisiana and Texas and where the former is House Speaker Mike Johnson’s home state.

SIDEBAR: MIKE JOHNSON & LOUISIANA

Note that Louisiana is the home state of IC asset House Speaker Mike Johnson relative to the massive amount of help from the State to Venture Global and the LNG contracts signed with China.

Note the close proximity of Venture Global to the Intelligence Community [CIA] and where Speaker Johnson was immediately tabbed as an IC functionary with gatekeeper and guardrail functions.

It is unknown if any indirect or direct correlation exists between Venture Global and the Intelligence Community.

The scope of China’s LNG deals out of the Plaquemines LNG facility are substantial and for example:

It’s important to note that when dealing with Chinese energy companies, ultimately, it is the CCP that is behind them ergo, when the US or US corporations make deals with China to export energy, those deals are being made with the CCP.

We accept the UN evidence on its face recalling it was the UN/WHO [China] that launched the initial asymmetrical kinetic event in the execution of the fraudulent “pandemic.”

We make this assumption based upon substantial existing analysis positioning the China as a primary funding mechanism for the United Nations therefore making the UN its functionary.

That analysis is revisited and summarized in this piece: COVID-19, WHO International Pandemic Treaty and Global Governance: At what point does an internationally enforceable treaty permit foreign troops on U.S. soil?.

10. GO DEEPER: THE CHAO FAMILY, CHINA & THE CCP

Our examination of the Dali was done relative to a precursory event the importance of which was not fully understood at the time of its occurrence: Angela Chao, McConnell’s sister-in-law, had a blood alcohol level 3 times above legal limit in fatal accident, police say.

Angela Chao, a shipping industry CEO and sister-in-law to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, was intoxicated when she drove into a pond and died last month in Texas, according to a law enforcement report released Wednesday.

NBC News

Notable is Chao’s position as the CEO of a shipping company and her in-law relation to Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell.

Although no correlation between the Chao’s and the Dali could be established, this does not discount reasonable suspicions that the Chao family and it’s businesses and philanthropic organizations are in service to China and the CCP.

Chao, who is obviously Chinese like her sister, who is McConnell’s wife, was the CEO of the family shipping business The Foremost Group.

According to the AP, “Chao was the chair and CEO of her family’s shipping business, the Foremost Group, and the president of her father’s philanthropic organization, the Foremost Foundation.”

According to the Foremost Group:

*Link

Courtesy of the Foremost Group, Chao’s bio evidences the deep Chinese attributions for us also noting other overlapping aspects like Harvard, public education, US-China relations, “young leaders” [nomenclature for CCP, WEF, et al. recruiting portals], Council on Foreign Relations, banking/finance, etc.

This is Chao’s father also from the Foremost Group:

*Link

Notable is that China [meaning the CCP] dispatched Dr. Chao meaning that he assuredly had walking orders from the CCP and PLA where he and his endeavors would be in service to them.

In short, this is simply how the CCP works [its modus operandi] and it should be accepted on its face for the purpose of accurate analysis.

That said, the position on the Chao family relative to the CCP requires development and evidence not yet identified and put forth.

The Department of Homeland Security is problematic for myriad reasons clearly laid-out in the aggregate analysis and notably, Dr. Chao interfaces directly with DHS.

Understanding the roles of charitable foundations and NGOs relative to moving and laundering money, Dr. Chao maintained an array of appropriate interfaces that overlay a variety of important contexts as shown.

Dr. Chao also overlays with Harvard and multitudes of “leadership” roles in important contexts knowing that “leadership” positions in the context and vernacular of US/China relations functions as a CCP recruiting portal just like it does with “young leaders.”

China’s recruiting portals like its “Thousand Talents” program recruited and leveraged Harvard professor Charles Lieber, who in the months before COVID-19 was unpacked on us was caught by federal law enforcement smuggling vials of coronavirus strains from Boston and Detroit to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China aboard three separate flights and using Chinese CCP/PLA officers who were also Harvard students.

That’s how China works and I believe the Chao family works within the same general and established CCP modus operandi.

It is reasonable to believe that the Chaos and their business and philanthropic entities are in service to China and the CCP to some unknown degree [needs further development for verification].

Such reasons could be the actual explanation for Angela Chao’s “accidental” death.

Fact-checkers were quick to set the record straight to sow the seeds of “conspiracy theory” dismissal:

2. https://apnews.com/article/fact-check-dali-ship-baltimore-ceo-angela-chao-973096915358

By fact-checking the Chao’s against the Dali relative to China, the Dali can be used to dismiss such correlation between the Dali and China.

For this reason, the deliberate release of the erroneous Angela Chao/Dali allegations presents like CCP misinformation/disinformation tactics that deflect into a fruitless wild goose chase permitting attribution for the Dali outside of China.

11. GO DEEPER: CONTEXTUAL BACKDROP

The introduction ended with China as the template to build the US back better into a technocratic surveillance state that functions as a plantation in a global network of them.

The end game is converting the US into Marxist communism and it begs more questions and answers.

Have Americans discerned that within this internally controlled demolition of the US, cultural Marxism is the battle axe being swung to keep the population writ large pitted, divided into factions and fighting itself?

Why would China fight us directly; at least not until America is at its historically weakest and most vulnerable point ever, when we are all too willing to fight ourselves?

The Francis Scott Key bridge collapse was an operation out of the overarching asymmetrical, irregular and undeclared warfare that has been ongoing for several years, now.

We are currently undergoing and enduring the pre-kinetic softening phase of this war; where China cuts at us in ways that are seemingly imperceptible to the ordinary American, who has been indoctrinated to shelve independent and critical thinking in favor of the omnipotence delivered by devices and fact-checkers.

It makes them perfectly ripe for weaponized propaganda overlaid by a socially programmed egocentric perspective that is very much of the Ptolemaic model of the solar system; where Earth is at the center and where the individual becomes Earth.

In the political application, the Ptolemaic model includes an inability for the indoctrinated to perceive other objects in the system or their misunderstood forces such as gravity.

Relentlessly introduce endless space junk to worry about in the Ptolemaic model and the individual focuses on all of that and none of the objects and forces that matter.

Once America has dropped to its knees and is at its historically weakest point; focused on division, fighting ourselves and distracted by the Intelligence Community propaganda machine, China will move ultimately leading to a scenario of a WWIII with foreign boots on CONUS soil.

The timeline bookend for China’s maneuvering and WWIII generally is the 2024 election +/- 3 months, as laid-out in the existing analysis.

The severe “electoral” backlash that has occurred since Hillary Clinton’s unforeseen loss in November 2016 has manifested as an incremental and intermittent but steady escalation to the absolute misery of the present, which by design has been a march toward this thermonuclear World War III.

After the Intelligence Community stole and secured the 2020 “election” for Biden’s [China’s] installation, the incoming Biden Administration immediately initiated a foreign policy change to shift away from Trump’s appropriate hyper-focus on China and back to NATO’s favorite “boogeyman” Russia.

By February 2022, NATO’s encroachment on Russia’s national sovereignty, national defense and national security required a direct response from the Russian Federation as Russian President Vladimir Putin initiated a “special security operation” to begin military countermeasures.

The Intelligence Community, Biden Administration and NATO leveraged it’s foreign policy change to deliver the first of three long-projected theaters for World War III: Russia/Ukraine.

The remaining two theaters then began to shape-up with the long-projected Middle East initial kinetic flashpoint of Syria, which intricately envelops Iran as a rogue nuclear development proxy and China/Taiwan/South China Sea, where Beijing will move on Taiwan at the most militarily strategic time aligned with the 2024 election +/- 3 months is the chronological bookend.

NEW WWIII DEVELOPMENTS

New developments inform our analysis; especially the longstanding examination of NATO’s encroachment on Russia as the tip of the spear being used to poke at Putin and Russia.

Therein and relative to the US proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, Ukraine’s NATO membership is a critical component.

1. Blinken Bombshell: “Ukraine Will Become A Member Of NATO”

2. Israel Warns Iran Of Massive Regional War If Directly Attacked

Again, outside of a designed and incremental march to a thermonuclear World War III initiated by a pre-inaugural foreign policy change issued by the incoming Biden administration in late 2020, these types of things don’t continue to happen in this sequence and on the exact timeline projected nearly 4 years ago.
