Land investors, those Chinese. Just bought a parcel 1/4 the size of Rhode Island on the border.
From this week in our news.
Interestingly I trap a ranch less then 8 miles from the military base.
Anyone soon need some Chinese anything in addition to the empty tequila bottles I pick up?
We are being invaded one click at a whack y'all.
We have enriched the world, and all that enriching is now coming back to purchase us, lock, stock, and soul.

In an exclusive interview Tuesday with Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo, Hayman Capital Management founder and CIO Kyle Bass revealed that China has recently purchased a 180,000 ranch – in south Texas, USA. Bass first made the bombshell announcement in a Twitter post on Saturday, as he shared a photo of a locked gate at the ranch’s entrance.

“The Chinese have recently purchased over 180,000 acres (280 square miles) of Texas ranch land near the runway of the US’s largest pilot training base for the Air Force. Standing at the their front gate on a recent reconnaissance trip, I couldn’t believe we allowed these purchases under CFIUS,” Bass wrote, referencing the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States.

“This ranch land also sits on the US border with Mexico and boasts a 30,000 sq ft lodge and a private runway which helps the Chinese owners ferry people and cargo in and out of the border region with limited to no oversight by US authorities. This must STOP,” he added.

When asked, “And what of the fool that sold it to them?” Bass responded, “They have a front-man from Longview. The sellers thought they were selling to another American. I’m going to be on @MariaBartiromo tomorrow (Tuesday) morning at 8am ET (7am Texas time) to discuss the former People’s Liberation Army General that has quietly acquired over 200 sq miles of Texas land Val Verde Co. next to Laughlin Air Force base.

is this the CCP (Chinese communist party) or Chinese investors

a co-worker of mine lives in TX outside Dallas his landlord was in China he bought a house now.

when people started getting wealth in China they would get a travel visa for the family bring wife and kid over our real-estate market was in the toilet at the time , buy brand new spec houses and virtually anything they could , show up talk with real-estate agent oh yes is schools good like they were planning to move here

might buy 5-10 houses in a month a couple months later they have a management company renting them out they collect the rent , deal with issues the renter is responsible for mowing the grass.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

This has been going on for quite some time. Slaughter hoses are being bought up as well by foreign nationals corporations. The Saudi's are leasing farmland as well around the world.

"--- all that enriching is now coming back to purchase us, lock, stock, and soul."

Our politicians and business leaders are selling us out. I wrote to my Senators when Smithfield Farms was about to be sold to the Chinese. They basically po-poed me.

Guess the Mormon Church will have some competition on land grabbing.

Another good way to help destroy this country. Purchase as much land as you can.

Why not, they just bought a president and soon a couple of radical senators so they can own the whole government.

I think it is either the British or the EU that are buying the politicians.

Well if it's a done deal Mark and you trap close by this may be a fine opportunity to develop a coyote meat market. smile
