Foreign-Born Researchers At US Agencies Were Secretly Working For China And Recruiting Others,
Daily Caller ^ | 11/19/2019 | Luke Rosiak

Foreign-born researchers working for U.S. agencies were secretly on China’s payroll, signing side agreements to send sensitive research to that country as part of a recruitment operation called the Thousand Talents Plan, a Senate report found.

10,000 Chinese nationals in 2018 conducted research in the Department of Energy’s National Labs, and one even had colleagues write him letters of recommendation to the Communist Party-run recruitment program, the bipartisan report stated.

Agencies like NIH do not even track attempted foreign influence, the Department of State denies only 5% of suspicious visas, and the FBI shut down a key program, according to the report.

Foreign-born researchers working at U.S. agencies secretly joined China’s payroll, sending sensitive U.S.-funded research to the country while U.S. government agencies took almost no defensive measures against a major recruitment operation, a Senate investigation found.

Researchers linked to the Chinese government formed a Chinese cell within the Department of Energy, attained access to American genomic data, and recruited other U.S. researchers to join, the bipartisan report stated.

My granddaughter was doing medical research in college...and she said all the foreign students never spoke English in the lab.....except as absolutely necessary. She got to be VERY distrustful because of it.

We should end all immigration and end all H1-Bs. Let’s put Americans in charge of things for a few decades.

There was a time, if a foreign born individual was given access to any high level program, they were kept on a very short leash. That became not politically correct, so they were given free reign, but hey we had a foreigner in the Oval Office.

Universities selling themselves to foreign students for a few pieces of silver.

Visa scams keeping the grads here in every industry.

US STEM grads get nothing because the foreigners can be hired for less with the promise of a green card.

how about near ZERO immigration for a generation or two?

You can bet that the Chinese are pouring a lot of money into “The Resistance”. They would rather have another pushover like Biden or Warren or Buttplug to deal with rahter than Trump.

If the US tech lead over rivals is wide? The pressure is off, funding support is so/so.

If instead our lead is seen as thin? Programs (e.g. weapons) get rich funding.

Hmmmmm.....gosh I wonder:

WHY are companies funded by tax money so flamboyantly lax about tech security, huh..?

Like the whiz-bang Guangzhou engineer who mixes with NOBODY, has barrrrrely functional Engrish but somehow WILL just not rest until Hughes Aerospace hires him.

Gosh I WONDER if he’s passing our stuff off to EggFooYungLand, right? He is.

Yet Hughes and very many others KNOWS it, does nothing and WE ARE GETTING PLAYED, just as it is becoming clear that we have been getting played by the CIA for decades.

They are out for THEMSELVES, not for us, not for the flag.

Invasion sustainability REQUIRES crappy public schools.

Very many research departments don’t just hire scads of Indian and Chinese now, they DEPEND on them. As in they might not be able to “make it” without them.

The need for minds disciplined by observing a set of fixed rules, embracing those and then showing creativity in new, productive ways of working within that framework is TOTALLY UNDIMINISHED, even with the decline of union-dominated publik Skools.

The need for math & science today remains steady as before, even with US kids learning about how boys can have PERIODS, about how Plymouth Rock was all about GENOCIDE, about how Indians were all joyously, peacefully whirling around in colorful harvest festivals until acquisitive, green-fanged Christian fundamentalists arrived on-scene and STOLE it all from them, clapping them all into chains while doubled-over, laughing about it.

In order to continue, the invasion NEEDS for our kids to learn nothing in school, the better to maintain the requirement for dusky invaders with minds not raised under those demented conditions.

The right has totally ceeded the skool sistum to The Left.
