The Chinese government tried to obtain sensitive internal information and build a network of influence and informants inside the Federal Reserve, according to a new report released Tuesday by Republican staff members of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
The report from the committee staff of Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, the ranking member, did not conclude whether the attempts, which included the detention of a Federal Reserve employee, were successful.
Since at least 2013, the report found, China has targeted the Federal Reserve System and sought to recruit U.S.-based economists to share information in exchange for money and other benefits. Thirteen Federal Reserve employees working across eight of the Fed's 12 locations were identified as the "P-Network" by a Federal Reserve analysis that deemed them to be of potential concern, according to the report.
One of the members of the "P-Network" was detained four times on a 2019 trip to Shanghai, and his family was threatened, according to the report. The Fed employee's phones, computers and contact information were hacked during his trip to China, and Chinese officials copied contact information of other Federal Reserve officials, the report said.
The Senate committee obtained the Federal Reserve's counterintelligence analysis of the P-Network in 2020, but it said the central bank now disputes many of the findings. At least one of the employees of the network was fired for "violating certain [Federal Reserve System] rules," according to the analysis obtained by the committee. NBC News has not reviewed the original Federal Reserve analysis.
The report also found what it called close ties between Federal Reserve employees and the People's Bank of China, Chinese media outlets and the Chinese Thousand Talents Program, which U.S. intelligence officials say encourages economic espionage.
At least one Fed employee tried to transfer large volumes of data in an unapproved transfer to an external site after having had "continuous contacts with Chinese nationals and universities," according to the report. It is not clear from the report whether the transfer was successful.

Gee, whoda thought 🤔 this was possible?
Taking down the Federal Reserve System would just about complete the disruption.
Gosh. I’m surprised that the Chicoms would do this. Any American caught colluding with them should be shot on site like a mad dog. We’re going to need a lot of ammo.
Congress, big tech, media, academia, multi national corporations, GOPe, DNC and big sports. Even the president and his family have sold us out.
I have a new working theory anyone who is shouting Russia Russia Russia is working for the CCP and I hate punk Putin. Prove me wrong.
And he goes back 3 times after the first detention? He’s either stupid or cooperating.
It’s not like the Chicoms aren’t ALREADY neck deep into EVERY OTHER government agency. Why should the FED be exempt.
The CCP is ALL OVER this country...like locusts. Check your local college or university.
Internal info can easily be gathered by contacting the Bidens.
See the sheer number of games distributed by Google to Android phones.
Most of these “games” have Chinese actors, promise tons of free money and they want access to your PayPal account.
Oh some amount is probably free at first.....
There’s also some girl with a Slavic accent and they actually changed her $500 lie to a poorly dubbed-ocer $5.
I’ve seen these ads dozens of times playing games.
In one, an American female claims one of the games gave her.....wait for it.......2 billion dollars.
Yes, 2 BILLION dollars.
In a lot of the “ads” they show a building that looks like an apartment building on campus for tech people. A lot of the commercials are filmed around this site.
I always thought it looked like China but dunno.
I always thought it came off as them gathering PayPal information to do a one day hit on all accounts.
At least that was my tinfoil. 😜
“Tried”
HAHAHAHAHAHA.
Looks like they are planning to conquer us completely. Also looks like compromised government officials and representatives don’t care as they will live like kings after the fact. Looks like we’re needing a revolution (hate to write that) to overthrow the government, round up and execute ALL Chinese spies (theirs & ours - no detentions) and shut off relations with China. If we don’t we’re done as a nation.
> “China tried to obtain internal info and build a network of informants inside the Federal Reserve, says a new GOP Senate report”
Well coming from a “GOP Senate Report”, I don’t know ....
Coming from any other half-way believable source, I’d say China succeeded.
