As the Chinese Communist Party continues its aggression in the South China Sea against neighboring Taiwan, Congress and the White House have taken measures to deter any potential military threat to the island nation.

Congressman Mike Gallagher (R-WI-8) and Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL-8) join to discuss the efforts of the government to impose tariffs against Chinese trade goods and how the United States can ward off China's military advancement.

Later, they discuss the issue of China stealing American intellectual property, and how investment firms like BlackRock are inadvertently contributing to the prosperity of China.
