Dangerous menaces are spreading from mainland China to the United States. Surgical masks and Big Pharma vaccines, however, won't protect this nation from its infiltration. The problem doesn't lie with bats. It lies with America's batty pursuit of globalization at all costs.
Chinese Communist Party agents are using our suicidal pathologies -- blind worship of "diversity," naive exaltation of "cultural exchange" programs, and reckless surrender of our education system -- against us for economic espionage, intellectual property theft and world dominance. While Beltway blowhards rail against foreign interference in our elections, Beijing's hijacking of our classrooms ensues with hardly a peep of political resistance.
On Monday, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Boston announced that the chairman of Harvard University's Chemistry and Chemical Biology Department, along with two Chinese nationals, have been "charged in connection with aiding the People's Republic of China." Acclaimed Harvard chemist and nanoscientist, Dr. Charles Lieber, had served as a "strategic scientist" at Wuhan University of Technology for the past nine years and is accused of lying about his role as a "contractual participant" of China's infamous Thousand Talents Plan.
Last fall, after years of intel warnings, a bipartisan Senate committee blew the whistle on TTP's systematic recruitment of an estimated 7,000 academics who have agreed to "transmit the knowledge and research they gain here to China in exchange for salaries, research funding, lab space, and other incentives." Lieber reportedly received $50,000 a month plus living expenses and more than $1.5 million for a Chinese research lab, all while soaking up $15 million in federal grants from the National Institutes of Health and Defense Department.
It is unknown how many Chinese nationals worked in either Lieber's America-based or China-based labs. But the two Chinese nationals charged with Lieber were cancer researcher Zaosong Zheng, 29, whom Harvard sponsored on a J-1 work-study exchange visa and Yanqing Ye, 29, whom Boston University sponsored on a J-1. Prosecutors allege Ye is a CCP member and top military lieutenant. Zheng is accused of attempting to smuggle "21 vials of biological research" aboard a flight destined for China.
Those are just a few who got caught. In 2018-2019, China sent the most international students from around the world (369,548 out of nearly 1.1 million) to study in U.S. institutions. More than 71,000 Chinese students headed to Massachusetts; 6,222 of them embedded at Harvard and 10,598 of them enrolled at Boston University. Those figures don't include their spouses and children, who are also welcomed through their own special visa programs. (And the national security risks of the untold tens of thousands of Chinese nationals on the H-1B tech worker visa is a whole 'nuther story.)
China has cunningly exploited America's alphabet soup of temporary visa programs, which are overwhelmed by out-of-control mass migration and are operated by open borders ideologues who put the alleged economic benefits of admitting 1 million international students into the country every year over the national security risks. Top administrators at Harvard and other prestigious universities have continually denounced the Trump administration for increasing vetting of foreign student visas and inconveniencing their wealthy clientele.
But mum's the word on the treachery taking place under the guise of "cultural" enrichment:
--Last July, the FBI indicted Chinese F-1 student visa beneficiary Weiyun "Kelly" Huang in an alleged visa fraud scheme that allowed more than 2,500 Chinese foreign students on F-1 -- including a purported spy for the Chinese government -- to extend their stays by claiming employment with a phony internet front she created. The ruse allowed the scammers to take advantage of the uncapped Optional Practical Training program allowing F-1s to stay an extra three years to work. Ji Chaoqun, an F-1 who received a master's degree in electrical engineering in 2015 from an unspecified U.S. university, paid for Huang's services and was arrested in 2018 for alleged spying and recruitment of academics and engineers under the direction of the People's Republic of China.
--In September, the FBI arrested Chinese national Zhongsan Liu in New Jersey for operating a fraudulent J-1 visa racket that imported PRC operatives to staff a New York front group recruiting scientists, academics and engineers to work in China. Liu targeted seven American universities for the scheme, including the University of Massachusetts Boston.
--Just last week, the University of Missouri at Columbia announced it was terminating its partnership with a Chinese government-funded language and cultural program called the Confucius Institute amid widespread national security concerns. The Institute's teachers were pouring into local K-12 schools through the J-1 visa program unsupervised. The U.S. Government Accountability Office identified more than 500 "Confucius Institutes" worldwide, with 96 located at colleges and universities in the United States as of December 2018 -- the vast majority of them publicly funded institutions. A PRC propaganda outfit called Hanban has provided funding ranging from $900,000 to $1.7 million for "model" Confucius Institutes.
While several universities have closed their programs, several Chinese language charter schools and entire school districts, including K-12 public schools in Broward County, Florida, Houston and Seattle, operate "Confucius Classrooms" approved and co-operated with the Chinese government.
Where's a nationwide public health emergency declaration when you need one?
Worst case, Chinese become the majority in California and proceed to lock liberals up in reeducation camps then start sending water to the farm land again instead of running it to the ocean to save a few little fish.
I'm gonna have to think about this a bit.
Charles Lieber. Another Julius Rosenberg.. I have been saying this about the ChiComs for years. People think I’m crazy.. My neighborhood and local University is completely infiltrated, and like the sheeple here here think “ diversity “ is just marvelous.
If you want to know what Han majority government would be like, watch ‘Man in the High Castle’ for how the Japanese treat everyone else.
Irrigation would be the least of your problems.
The CCP has planted thousands of spies and just regular people
to take Americans jobs.
Its an planned invasion and we have China Mitch and his bought off thieves in DC .
“overwhelmed by out-of-control mass migration”
That neither Dims nor most Repukes want to discuss.
I live in a college town and these yellow dogs aren't here to be our neighbors. They don't even look an American in the eye when they walk by. It would be ok with me if our university system collapsed & we rebuilt them with an accent on educating American kids.
More like Chinese students come here, see what the American system is like, and privately decide freedom is better than slavery to the state. No, it’s not enough to make a difference yet but as more and more Chinese students return from their studies in America and bring back American ideas with them expect a push for change in the next 20 years once those students get into positions of power. I can’t say I have a problem with that.

I’d expect that those who are allowed to come have already been severely vetted by the chicoms to be loyal to communism to the very center of their being.
You must consider every one of your enemies citizens to be an enemy until that regime collapses.
