"Critics have said the initiative, put in place during former President Donald Trump's administration, amounted to racial profiling and that it created a culture of fear that has chilled scientific research."

"The China Initiative is being cast aside largely because of perceptions that it unfairly painted Chinese Americans and U.S. residents of Chinese origin as disloyal."

If you are afraid to identify and call out who the enemy is, you cannot expect to win the engagement.

The speed and efficiency at which they work to destroy this country is definitely demonically inspired. Has the atmosphere of the Nazi’s stepping up the gas chambers even as Germany was loosing the war.

They did not reason this way when they supported Omar’s new agency to investigate ONLY anti-Muslim crimes, and not crimes against Christians or Jews.

Makes sense as I’m sure many many PRCs are embedded in the resident’s mis-administration. Just as they are throughout entertainment, MSM, education system etc.
