Multiple media sources reporting
Yes, it should not be allowed, but we have known about this for a long time.
Then there is the hypocrisy angle: You don't think the CIA having security operations in other countries is not a threat?
The US went after anti-US actors in other countries as well. How is that different?
Make no mistake, the Chinese are evil and a foe. But this does not rise to some special status as was indicated in the press release.
My point had zero to do with the facts in the case, and was directed at many comments in this thread where people already “knew” what the matter was about before anything was reported. Some comments confirmed nothing but the narrative/agendas they see all matters in, before, without or disregarding any facts.
So basically your issue is the Biden admin did this and not Trump. I’m sure you’d have no problem with President Trump moving against CCP operatives. Right?
This is the same corrupt FBI that lied about Trump colluding with Russia, that raided Trump, that spied on a sitting President.
I trust the Chinese far more than I trust the communists in the FBI.
ESPECIALLY the FIB.
Or the ChiCom government for that matter.
With the FIB, and the media, and the Burden administration, you can assume that the opposite of whatever they say is the real truth. Usually you’ll be closer to the real truth that way.
I trust the Chinese far more than I trust the communists in the FBI.
You trust the Chinese Communist Party? Interesting position for a conservative.
What does being a conservative have to do with not trusting the FBI? After I watched the sham TWA 800 investigation, I quit trusting the FBI.
“Any idea what this announcement could be?”
You can’t believe them anyway.
>You can’t believe them anyway.
People notices that Teixera wasn’t the doc source so they’re pulling out someone else
Maybe you have comprehension issues, so I will rephrase this for you:
I am happy this happened, but the announcement did not require so much hype and fanfare. I believe the hype was done to show that Biden is "tough" on China.
This did not merit the headline: Significant National Security Matter
Is it about the Chinese police station in nyc?
Yea
“The statute of limitations for child sexual abuse cases is 10 years, but the timer only starts once the survivor turns 18.”
“Prosecutors can pursue legal action against a felony child sexual abuse offender no matter how long after the incident.”
What’s interesting is that they’ve known about this for a long time. So, why are they going after them now?
“You trust the Chinese Communist Party? Interesting position for a conservative.”
Your reading comprehension is still at a retarded level, I see. Read what I wrote again, then apologize for making a stupid conclusion.
LOL.
I like the way you think.

It looks to me as if the issue here is the size and brazenness of the Chinese operation.* The two arrests are as you indicate something that’s been investigated since at least last November. My best guess, and it’s only that, would be the FBI was attempting to follow up / recover the deleted files and such, and finally decided to just go with what they had.
*I’m actually more interested in the 34 plus 10 Chinese(? / all in China?) charged with the troll farm operation, reputedly operating thousands of fake accounts. Obviously none of those individuals will face arrest by the US. It is a thorny problem for countries that thankfully still allow free (or at least mostly free) debate.
I've only been here a few weeks, but this is quite possibly the WORST FR thread ever.
From forum selection to title to content to commentary.
The initial thread post was simply an “announcement” of a live press briefing that was about to take place. The remainder of the thread was actual comments in real time as the LIVE press briefing played out.
In my not so humble opinion. This is EXACTLY what FR Breaking news should be. Yes there are a lot of posts that are intended to be sarcasm and FR think tank comments.
Just my 2 cents worth.
