The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is opening a new China-related counterintelligence case about once every 10 hours as it pushes back against Beijings expansive campaign to steal American intellectual property (IP) and influence policymakers, FBI director Christopher Wray said in a speech on July 7.
Wray warned that Beijings counterintelligence and economic espionage operations are the greatest long-term threat to the United States economic and national security.
Its stealing of U.S. technology and trade secrets is on a scale so massive that it represents one of the largest transfers of wealth in human history, he said in a speech given at the Washington-based think tank Hudson Institute.
His remarks come as the Trump administration ramps up its actions and rhetoric against the Chinese regime in a range of issues from its coverup of the CCP virus outbreak to its tightening grip on Hong Kong to national security risks posed by Chinese telecom companies.
White House national security adviser Robert OBrien recently warned that the United States would push back against Beijings malign activities. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Attorney-General William Barr are expected to address similar issues in speeches in the coming weeks.
In one of the most detailed speeches by a U.S. official on the threats posed by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the FBI director detailed the regimes broad, diverse campaign to steal American IP and exert undue influence over U.S. officials at all levels of government.
China is engaged in a whole-of state-effort to become the worlds only superpower by any means necessary, Wray said.
It can execute that campaign with authoritarian efficiency, he added. Theyre calculating, theyre persistent, theyre patient, and theyre not subject to the righteous constraints of an open democratic society, or the rule of law.

IT’s AN EXPANSIVE, TARGETED CAMPAIGN FOLKS:
The campaign employs a wide range of techniquesfrom cyber hacking to acquisitions of foreign companies to physical theftand involves a full breadth of actors, spanning intelligence services, private firms, graduate students, and researchers, the FBI director said. The targeted U.S. companies range from Fortune 100 companies to startups, in a variety of industries from aviation to agriculture.
U.S. pharmaceutical companies and research institutes have especially been targeted during the pandemic, Wray noted. He said its not unusual for the FBI to see cyber intrusions tracing back to China after a company or research body makes an announcement about promising COVID-19 researchsometimes almost the next day.
FBI Director Wray said that almost half of the FBIs nearly 5,000 counterintelligence investigations across the country are connected to China, adding that in the past decade, there has been roughly a 1,300 percent increase in economic espionage cases linked to the regime.
No problem. China will simply call its closest allies, the Democrat Party, the media, and all university liberal arts profs. Done.
Trust the plan! It’s habbening!
Why the heck arent investigations opened every day into antifa, BLM, the gazillion communist front groups and the Democrat party?
-PJ
15 FBI agents were sent to investigate the fake noose incident. How many other agents are investigating ridiculous things like thaht?
Well if the communist democrats manage to cheat enough to win the election then all these investigations will disappear in days. Time to start giving us some indictments.
Probably trying to dig up any connection to Trump that could help the Biden campaign.
After 30 years of both parties, full-on RUNNING to sell us out.
Finally.
Finally. Someone gets it.
Each will take 2-3 years to investigate.
How many of these spies have gone to prison?
It was NOT just democrats.
Both parties.
For thirty darned years.
Republicans have been just as bad.
EVERYONE has been selling America out.
For thirty darned years.
“Cloward-Piven the FBI over China, so there’s nobody left to investigate the Democrats”.
That’s right. And they’re using Cloward-Piven to overwhelm the whole system.
there is something really really creepy about the FBI
How many arrests from these 5000 cases?
The FBI lives on publicity so I would say maybe 3 arrests.
In other words they are still
