An influential state-run newspaper applauded Chinas anti-espionage efforts on Monday after the New York Times reported Beijing had killed or imprisoned up to 20 CIA sources, hobbling U.S. spying operations.
The Chinese killed at least a dozen people providing information to the Central Intelligence Agency between 2010 and 2012, dismantling a network that was years in the making, the New York Times reported. The paper cited two senior former U.S. officials. NBC News was not immediately able to independently verify the report.

If this article is telling the truth, we would like to applaud Chinas anti-espionage activities. Not only was the CIAs spy network dismantled, but Washington had no idea what happened and which part of the spy network had gone wrong, the paper said. It can be taken as a sweeping victory. Perhaps it means even if the CIA makes efforts to rebuild its spy network in China, it could face the same result.

No, I don’t have proof of that other than a highly refined gut feeling developed after decades of political criminal rule.
How did Trump do it? There needs to be an investigation. The seriousness of the charges requires a special counsel.
