One of Montana’s senators is joining the push to keep businesses tied to the Chinese government from buying land nationwide. Fifteen states have passed laws regulating the practice. NBC News’ Ryan Nobles has the story.

So it’s ok for America to own land in other people’s country?
Just recently an undisclosed buyer bought hundreds of acres surrounding Travis Air Force base here in Northern California.. we need to do better
If you keep permitting communists to buy any kind of property in the United States, then the United States will become a communist country. I thought about putting my brother on a plane to Viet-Nam, and putting my mom’s brother on a plane to Korea, and telling them, “Don’t come back until you’ve won the war.”
Ok and a communist created atomic bomb in USA .
So first become non nuclear nation. Then talk about communism.
I dare u
In that state, there’s not much else politicians can do to attract votes.
Nixon was the last president to see communists for what they really are. Reagan’s war against the communists in Grenada was not why Reagan invaded that country. People in the armed forces who fought in Korea and or Viet-Nam had no wins, one tie in Korea, and one loss in Viet-Nam. Reagan only had something to prove.
What a load of nonsense. Nixon sold us out to the Chinese in 1972. He was the start of this entire problem. Reagan allowed everyone–including Japan–to buy out American companies and landmarks wholesale in the 1980s.
Y’all do know we own everything but this country and also we don’t own no oil
This should be illegal. They’re doing this to spy on the country!!!
Agenda 2030/2050 but sure blame it on yet another boogie man.
I don’t think ANY foreigner should be allowed to buy AMERICAN land.
Let’s first close or military bases then talk
If you own the land/property and somebody foreign offers you ridiculous amount of money, you’d be a fool not to sell. American greed allowed this rampant buying of property and land.
Yeah this def shouldnt be allowed
Singaporean companies are some of the largest residential and commercial landlords in the US. Stop letting foreign governments take advantage of the American people.
We lost to the Chinese a long time ago. zzzzz
Probably not that big of a deal but good idea to start to get control of. Not like the US Govt wouldn’t just walk right in and take it anyway if any sort of conflict arose lol.
No for
What about the Chinese police station they found here, or the secret Chinese covid lab they found here? Why don’t you do some reporting on that? How is it not bigger news?
Whataboutery excuses.
How many USA military bases worldwide ?
@Jack Smith you are blind if you think the Chinese are not doing the same thing.
All those millions of acres of farmland China bought will never be planted, they are working up within , no food for USA
Foreign countries have been buying up our land for decades. Y’all been going back and forth about politicians and meanwhile they been buying up this country right under you 😂😂😂😂
paranoia !!
This country could care less… focus on bone headed Trump instead… 😂
Good!!!
It wouldn’t be Freedoms of capitalism if not allowed ,wouldn’t it🤣
As an American, tru and go buy land in China. Tell me how that goes for you.
As an American how many of Chinese or any nations military bases in USA ?
Hi on try taking me on ..
They sell us fentanyl, have CCP cops stations, a COVID farm was found in California, spy balloon , those 2 navy traitors who sent information back to china ….. it’s pretty obvious they are trying to destroy us
Fun fact
Everything is ever created. Was copied FROM China.
China , ice cream , ink, paper , planes , farming techniques , tea , cash , cash policies .
USA exists due to china.
Let China buy land from it’s BRICS allies. America needs it’s land to grow it’s own resources.
It’s complete insanity to allow China (or any foreign country) to purchase American land. Selling out America has got to stop.
BAN CHINA NOW.
BOYCOTT CHINA NOW.
Bayer a foreign company bought Monsanto in 2018. There is nothing legally we can do to stop Bayer a German company from selling Monsanto to another company/country. Monsanto owns the seed patents for most of the food grown in the USA.
America grow some balls and just take it it’s that eazy
Duh!
are these people really thinking banning Chinese companies from purchasing land in the US will stop everything? If the CCP really wants to buy land, they can just use some shell companies, or even ask average Americans to buy land for them by paying people higher prices, then what? going through Japanese concentration camps again like we did 70 years ago to the Chinese? Sinophobia is the real thing here, and people need to learn from the mistakes we made before. You guys are pushing those anti-CCP Chinese scientists, engineers, and doctors back into the arms of CCP, and its our children who will suffer the last
How about all the chinese companies who own homes in the Bay Area? Yet, it goes under the chinese citizen’s name even though it was bought by the company. I’m so sick of China and the US politicians who take their money while the rest of us suffer the consequences. The US completely betrays their own citizens.
How is china buying land an issue ? It’s china. U are using made in china as we speak
So much focus is on who is buying land in the U.S., but little focus is on how U.S. allows foreigners buy our land. This country doesn’t do much to help its own citizens.
Why the fuck is any foreign investor allowed to buy land here. It isnt theirs to give away, its land that belongs to the Indigenous people
I wonder how much Chinese land is owned by American companies?
I wonder how many Chinese military bases in USA ? Or any nations
Its called reporcity if we are not allowed to.purchase land in china they should not be allowed to purchased land in thr US
No one will do anything about it until it’s in our faces. Like literally in your face. The random empty field behind your house suddenly becomes China’s and it becomes widespread.
China already owns America because of its massive debt. Lol.
Don’t like capitalism and colonialism when used against you, huh Murica?
Not only ban them but take over whatever land they claim to own. They shouldn’t be allowed to own a single inch of American soil…
We shouldn’t need a bunch of corrupt idiots sitting around a table taking 2 years to decide wether or not our enemies could buy are country lol people are so dumb. Sometimes this country is an absolute joke.
America creation
Genocide
Slavery
Racism
Wars
Sanctions
Theft
Mass murder
I ll choose China over USA everyday .
New law, if an American citizen plants a U.S flag on any foreign owned land it is now owned by the us citizen. Case closed bye China.
Ok until USA closes it’s military bases in 80 plus nations
Anyone can and should buy legally the land in USA . Bye Yankee
2:28 I dont buy his argument. You’d compromise nat’l interest for your mail order bride?
Isn’t this racist? I mean when President Trump chose to ban airplane travel from China, People said it was racist.
This IS NEVER OKAY. BY ANY MEANS. FOREIGNERS ARE A BANE TO OUR LAND
The US should buy all of Taiwan.
Wow 7 million migrants enter the country illegally since 2022. Yet Asians buy land and they are bad people.
Where & when does it end ???
You can do anything in the US, as long as you have money.
On the flip side, please make report of how much land the US bought in China to be fair.
Mr Trump helped prevent chinese companies buying US land.
Did trump close USA military bases in 80 plus nations? No
Chinese investing in a corn mill
Hmm
My friend in africa says the Chinese are buying alot of land there too. And they definitely don’t care about spying there
Wake up everyone , including you idiots that are selling out to China. Stop selling to any foreign land buyers remember they are making millions of counterfeit money and putting it in the system.Stop now .
Why ?
China survived holocaust in WW2
#neverforget
Show us proof .
China doesn’t allow foreigners to go in their country and buy land, why should we allow them to do it here?
The best way to take out your enemy is within 😮
So Sen (R) Brad Bolner would sell out the US for his mail order bride………
If they pollute the entire world with their manufacturing- of which America is the largest consumer of, are you really saving America from the Chinese communist threat? We are all interconnected on the same planet and just not allowing them to buy some things, doesn’t mean you will curb your shopping habits. Hail the size of baseballs, tornados more frequent and further north, wildfires ever so much more devestating, then what happened? You saved a field full of crested whatgrass in Montana? You want a gold medal?
Yankees hate Chinese
I dont understand how someone can own land, this planet has been around for billions or years.
Time we take action to BAN China purchasing our land !!
Yay! Biden is the most expensive CCP’s asset
Americans can’t purchase land in China, why should we let the Chinese purchase land in America?
His wife should give up her Chinese citizenship. If she is not dedicated to the US, she shouldn’t own that land.
Canadian did it. We need to stop Chinese or other countries from purchasing land
Why? China survived holocaust in WW2
They can and should buy . Who are u to stop it
Lol
If we don’t put a ban on other countries owning American soil, places like China –who have resources [even government subsidies/ which the common person can’t compete with] will buy our whole country… Leaves us with nowhere to grow food….. THEY HAVE POTENTIAL…. to create a problem. Do you know what they don’t do — give up farm land. And they will just continue to own more and more and more and more over decades and decades and decades.
No one has a problem with European settlers purchasing land on North America.
Lets talk about all the foreign US bases in other countries?!
this is NOT ok to let Chinese people or companies to purchase us lands. can we Americans buy land in China? i dont think so unless you are a residence there. but I know money talks!
How many military bases of foreign nations in USA ?
Government needs to wake up!! China is setting up a trojan horse type of strategy. Also all US companies that trade with China should really start to think about trading with other countries that are more closely tied with the US politically.
I d rather support CCP over CIA
All Chinese companies can be, if not already be, controlled by the Chinese government. Just look at all the big organizations in China, all of them has some CCP members as executives.
Source ? Proof ! Names ?
“We’re still here … We are not going anywhere.” ~ Native Americans 😔
Lol Biden doesnt care..he’s literally paid by China.
U are using made in china
@JackSmith-mk1ru actually I’m using made in South Korea, but no one expects an intelligent reply from you..
“Land of the Free”?
More like, “Land of the Greed”.
Ban non citizens from owning domestic land. Period.
CHINA SHOULDN’T CONTROL ANY OF OUR LAND!!!!!!!!!
China can. Until USA closes it’s military bases around the world
No foreign nation should be allowed to buy land in the US
Sunday: China is done. Monday: China will rule the world. Tuesday: China’s economy is doomed. Wednesday: China is taking over USA as GDP leader. Thursday: China is invading Taiwan.
Friday: Why China will never invade
Taiwan. Saturday: rest day, lets talk about Russia
The agenda is becoming more visible
Honestly letting entities from hostile countries buy land beyond just for their own residence is pretty concerning. As for the guy with Chinese wife: couldn’t she just get American citizenship if inheriting the land was important? Marriage automatically qualifies her for it.
American logic: America invades others illegally and supports Israel in occupying Palestine……….good.
China buys land in US……….bad. 🙄
I’m shocked that our property is for sale to our enemies. Only in the USA
How is china an enemy ?
This is a joke 😂😂😂 f the usa
why would the divided states of endmerica care so much about their land? by the way they are pushing Russia and China for a nuclear war, dse’s land would be the least of their concern. the lands would become radioactive and useless anyway
Hmmm, I wonder how much American real estate is owned by Russian Oligarchs?
We need to stop allowing the profiting from real estate period. Homes are for living in, not to profit off. Majority of america is trapped in the rental market forever and it’s only getting worse.
Then lets ban american companies from buying other countries land too
They are producing American products for Americans, now they will be growing Food in America for Americans… lol
It baffles me that our leaders didn’t make this illegal along time ago. Seriously did none of them stop to think that maybe we shouldn’t let other countries buy U.S soil??
We should ban foreign individuals and companies from buy property in the U.S. If the company is owned by foreign investors then it can’t own property either. Any property already owned by them shound be taxed at a rate so high it’ll force them to sell. Once sold we should tax them as a foreign investor at a higher rate.
Yes. A democrat finally stepping up for this.
Anyone who sells land to China could care less about our country just like Joey China Bribbin!
…politians buying new yachts eh?
How are foreigners allowed to purchase domestic land? Only Americans should be given that right.
Maybe hidden launch nukes from underground
This is very old news. Xinnie Pooh was buying land and undermining Americans before he was dictator.
Some Americans want fascism in the United States. If you’re unsure what that is – look up 1939 Germany and study for your life.
We actually need it too much freedom has consequences for idiots trying to destroy all the hard work our great American brothers and sisters created.
How do you buy land and not report it to the government? how is that even possible??
