The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) frequently pressures and coerces U.S. companies to conform to its political values and foreign policy. Because of Chinas market size, individual companies often feel as though they have no option but to comply with CCP demands.

All of this crap is grounds for war. If the Rats take over,and they will some day, they’ll sweep it under the rug or let the Chicoms take over officially.
We must expel the entire Chinese influence here then punish all spies and traitors. Enough is enough!!
FYI> You don’t need “permission” to quote from or reproduce or show a government-released document. It is in the public domain unless it is in the “classified” category. Getting the govt/congressional agency “credit” for it is the proper method of “sourcing” it.
“Revealed”?
Really, who was not already aware of this?
Far worse goes back MANY years, the spying and intellectual property theft is beyond description.
Yet we still allow Chinese citizens and “Students” free rein with no actual effort to monitor them.
Encourage all domestic manufactured goods labeled: Made in America We did this back in the 70s.
Between 1994 and 1996, Chung donated $366,000 to the DNC. Once the truth of this situation was revealed to the public, all of the money was allegedly returned. Chung told federal investigators that $35,000 of the money he donated came from Liu Chaoying and, in turn, China's military intelligence.
Specifically, Chung testified under oath to the U.S. House Committee investigating the issue in May 1999 that he was introduced to Chinese Gen. Ji Shengde, then the head of Chinese military intelligence, by Liu Chaoying. Chung said that Ji told him: "We like your president very much. We would like to see him reelected. I will give you 300,000 U.S. dollars. You can give it to the president and the Democrat Party."Both Liu and the Chinese government denied the claims.
Chung was eventually sentenced to five years' probation and community service following an agreement to plea guilty to bank fraud, tax evasion, and two misdemeanor counts of conspiring to violate election law.

JOHNNY CHUNG: "Gotta put coins in---ka-ching---to make Clintons do something.
=============================================
The monumental disaster of the US-China Relations Act is becoming clearer.It was Bill Clintons last (cough)
"presidential accomplishment," the historic moment when a Democrat president of the greatest superpower of all time,
sap-happily handed its demise to a backward country, poised to strip America of its intellectual and
technological superiority.
The gay agenda and the blacks do the same its called extortion
Also enforce the treason & sedition laws.
Dems sold us out to them... and 'the press' can't see it because their lips were sown to democrat butts for the past decade. "Thanks for the news packets - we owe you for paying for stories so we can hold the illusion we're ethical 'journalists'"...
Eff the New York Times and Washington Post... and the misery they've brought to our country.
.
Time for “ NATIONAL DISTANCING “ from the corrosive CHICOM plague pit.
.
Cant trust them to NOT be poisonous in every way.
