Congress members want answers about Chinese 'police stations' in the U.S.
The Center Square ^ | 4/27/23 | Bethany Blankley

In a letter to FBI Director Chris Wray, congressional members on the U.S. Select Committee on the Chinese Community Party expressed concerns about the FBI potentially not knowing about Chinese "police stations" operating in the U.S. They also asked Wray to provide information about the FBI's efforts to investigate Chinese transnational repression in America.

The committee received a classified briefing on March 30 after requesting information on Feb. 24. However, the briefing didn't answer their questions, prompting them to formally ask 12 questions they want answered in writing. They also expect to have another classified briefing once they receive additional information.

U.S. Rep. Mike Gallagher, R-Wisc., led a coalition of 12 members who signed the letter.

In the letter, sent Wednesday, they cite a September 2022 report published by the Madrid, Spain-based nongovernmental organization Safeguard Defenders, which explains how the PRC uses "illicit methods to harass, threaten, intimidate and force targets to return to China for persecution." The PRC does this using officers working in at least 102 "Chinese Overseas Police Service Centers" or "police stations" in 53 countries, the organization said, adding that the agents are engaging in "persuasions to return" operations designed to "intimidate and force targets to return to China for persecution."

There is no legitimate reason as to why these police stations have been allowed to operate in American cities. They should have been immediately shut down and those operating them deported and prevented from entering our country again.

They should be jailed for impersonating a police officer. The fact that they are officers in another country is irrelevant to America.

I feel far less threatened by the presence of chicom police in this country than I am by 86,000,000 new armed and trained-for-lethal-action Gestapo/KGB assassins now under the IRS...

Obama, the actual current president, finally gets his National Police Force (NPF)...

His next step is to get Moochelle on the 2024 ticket as VP...
Then Joe can have his umbrella delivered...

We shouldn’t allow the current incarnation of the FIB to have field offices in the USA either.

Why do we let students from Communist China study at our universities? Why do we allow fifth columns in our country in the name of “openness” and “meritocracy?”

“Why do we let students from Communist China study at our universities? “

___

Money, influence, and power. In exchange the Chinese students get access to research information that they can submit to the CCP. The number of students enrolled in molecular biology, chemistry, and other such science grad studies is enormous. Also, sometimes they enroll, attend for a few semesters and then never are seen in class again.

I know a university whose sciences department was regularly visited by the Feds who were looking for particular foreign students (usually Chinese) who were in the U.S. on a student visa. The department heads were of no help because they hadn’t heard from the student in months or even years, and all the students’ contact information on file led to nowhere.

However, foreign students pay full tuition so universities recruit them pretty aggressively.
