VAN ZANDT COUNTY, Texas (KETK) — Two Chinese nationals were arrested with $250,000 worth of gold bars after a traffic stop on I-20 on Thursday..

Inside [the rental car], officials found a boarding pass from Spirit Airlines that showed Chen had boarded the plane in Los Angeles on July 30 at 5:19 p.m. and arrived in Atlanta on July 31 at 12:53 a.m. The tickets reportedly showed he had no bags with him when he boarded the flight.

On a rental agreement, it reportedly showed that the vehicle was rented in College Park, Georgia at 1:28 a.m. on July 31 and was to be returned by Aug. 3 at11:30 a.m. in Los Angeles.

A bag was located behind the driver’s seat on the floorboard where officials found multiple pieces of gold bullion bars estimated to value between $200,000 and $250,000..

There's a lot of gold smuggling out of China to get around the government's capital controls.

Back in the old days when France still had tight controls on exports of currency, relatives would buy gold take it out of the country & sell it. Or, if you had relatives with business accounts, transfer it to the business overseas and pick it up there.

I seen a couple of these illegal azhos down at the border tell a reporter that they didn’t come here “to do slave labor”. The came here to make “big money” and then laughed.

Wouldn't surprise me if Gavin Newsom had set up a program to give a few hundred thousand in gold to each illegal alien, at this point.

One of my friends taught economics at Beijing University.

While there he was invited to a wedding of one of his students, of a rich family.

The wedding went on for several days and nights.

Arriving guests all gave gold jewelry and bullion as wedding gifts.

A member of the family weighed each gift and documented it.

The bride would wear the jewelry until it became too heavy or bulky, then remove it and start with another batch.

My friend said (this was about 15 years or so ago) that he doubted any gift was for less than $5,000 in gold.

Not all Chinese are communists.

Many of those who are capitalists and/or just like more freedom are trying to get out of China.

If we can figure out who is what, we need the freedom loving ones here.

Waiting for what? We are destroying ourselves. China doesn’t need to lift a finger.

Were they arrested for having gold?
Is that against the law?

It is naive to think China is not supporting and funding the forces pushing us to destroy our culture and civilization.

China, in their own documents express their use of "total" war against the United States. They prefer to win by subverting the leadership of their opponent.

Biden is just one of dozens, perhaps hundreds or thousands of American politicians who are under strong Chinese influence.

Governor Walz of Minnesota is an open advocate of the Chinese. He went to Communist China for his honeymoon. He has been to China dozens of times.

Here's the likely motive why the thieves are here instead of China.

"In China theft results in a minimum of 10 years imprisonment, life sentence, or even death penalty.

"Lin reportedly entered the U.S. illegally on Sept. 15, 2023 in Tecate, California and was given a notice to appear. Lin had been released on an order of own recognizance and was set for further immigration processing in Los Angeles in September 2024."

Chen entered the U.S. illegally on Dec. 17, 2023 in Tecate, California and was given a notice to appear. He was released on an order of own recognizance and is pending immigration judicial action."

Might be a good idea to have receipts for that gold, if legally acquired.

I figure this is just Chinese bad guys on the inside paying Chinese illegals to help pay others to STUFF THE BALLOT BOXES FOR HARRIS.

It’s not easy for ANY Chinese citizen to get out of China without their gov’t knowing about it. Most who are here illegally WERE ALLOWED TO LEAVE and CAME IN ILLEGALLY SO THEY CAN HIDE BECAUSE THEY’RE UP TO NO GOOD.
