A senior Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence official is the new owner of a historic building overlooking the White House Complex, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation discovered.
Located approximately 650 feet northeast of the White House grounds, the 100-year-old Securities Building on 15th Street was purchased on July 21, 2026 for $8.4 million by the Philip Qiu and Family Foundation, filings show. The building’s new owner, Philip Qiu, has held numerous positions within Chinese intelligence and state security arms, according to university records and DCNF translations of Chinese government announcements.
Qiu did not respond to multiple requests for comment.

Bigger question: who allowed this to happen, and how compromised are they?
And he’s a champion sniper!
I would imagine someone in our government who is focused on taking down our government.
Can anyone explain to me why we are allowing these commie pieces of shit to buy ANY property in this country?
Vultures circling the feckless corpse
Lawmakers and security analysts have urged federal authorities to formally investigate the real estate transaction, noting that gaps in U.S. laws allow foreign-linked entities to purchase commercial property near vital government infrastructure.
A seller and a buyer agree on a price. The line goes up and big number get bigger. You know, the most important metic to measuring the health of the country. Imagine if they didn’t sell it to the Chinese, line might have gone down and big number get smaller. This would be very bad for our country.
EXCLUSIVE: CCP Intelligence Official Buys Building Steps From White House
Daily Caller ^ | August 13, 2026 | Philip Lenczycki
Keep your friends close, your enemies even closer.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to say, but it comes across as pretty stupid...Almost as stupid as allowing the sale.
Why would he want steps from the White House?
Why don’t we just nuke ourselves and get it over with?
“but it comes across as pretty stupid...Almost as stupid as allowing the sale”
Not bad. I would argue you actually understood it pretty well, even if you didn’t realize it.
Maybe there's a dozen of these all very well-hidden in DC and the CCP has let this one see the light of day as a distraction to draw attention away from all the others.
I’ve been selling & leasing commercial and industrial properties for over 35 years. People acan agree on price for a multitude of reasons. Nonetheless, I don’t know what you’re trying to say. Please enlighten me.
This sale needs to be stopped for reasons of national security.
Apologies. Why should I, as a hypothetical seller, not sell to the highest bidder? I can understand why you may theoretically not want to on some principled or moral reason. However lets assume that doesn’t apply to me. I am strictly in it for those little green rectangles made of linen and cotton.
