DOJ Takes a Short Break from Targeting Concerned Parents as "Domestic Terrorists" To Note that China is Running Blackmail/Coercion Operations Against Critics of China

Local international espionage crime story.

One of the targets was a Chinese candidate for the US Congress. He criticized China, and Chinese-descended people, in particular, are not allowed to do that.

As the Mafia claimed to own southern Italian immigrants, so China claims to own US citizens of Chinese descent.


The Justice Department planned to unseal criminal charges Wednesday involving three separate efforts by Chinese government agents to intimidate critics of Beijing living in the U.S., according to court documents and officials familiar with the cases.

Among the targets of the Chinese efforts was Arthur Liu, a lawyer and political activist in the San Francisco Bay area. He is the father of an Olympic figure skater, Alysa Liu. When he lived in China, he helped organize pro-democracy demonstrations.

His daughter has credited him with supporting and encouraging her. "He just helps me so much," she told NBC News during the Olympic games.

Another target was a Democratic candidate for Congress in New York, Xiong Yan, according to officials familiar with the case. Yan was involved in the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. Court documents say the Chinese agent, Qiming Lin, contacted a private investigator in New York and encouraged him to "find dirt" in order to discourage Yan from staying in the race.

"Can we manufacture something?" the agent asked, according to court documents. Lin recommended hiring a prostitute and even suggested that the private investigator could figure out some say to injure Yan. "Right now, we don't want him to be elected," Lin said, according to the documents.

Press conference here. You know how the DOJ and FBI love their press conferences.

More: They hired a US-based private investigator with ties to China's Ministry of State Security (MSS).

U.S. prosecutors have accused China of trying to harass and undermine an American critic of China who is running for U.S. Congress, according to a criminal complaint unsealed on Wednesday in federal court in New York.

Federal prosecutors in New York's Brooklyn borough said a Chinese government agent named Qiming Lin asked a U.S.-based private investigator to help manufacture a political scandal that would undermine the congressional candidate.

The candidate was not identified in court documents, but fits the description of Xiong Yan, who is seeking the Democratic nomination to run for a U.S. House of Representatives seat representing the eastern part of New York's Long Island.

Yan is a dissident who was involved in the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989. He served in the U.S. Army and is a naturalized U.S. citizen.

226 DU hopes the DOJ will go after those evil corporations immorally profiting off of fake economic issues because they're greedy and hate Biden!

Biden demands faster drop in gas prices as oil tumbles
"Oil prices are decreasing, gas prices should too," Biden said on Twitter. "Last time oil was $96 a barrel, gas was $3.62 a gallon. Now it's $4.31. Oil and gas companies shouldn't pad their profits at the expense of hardworking Americans."

1. Completely agree.
And he should call out why they don't. It's to perpetuate this right wing ideal that no D can make the economy as good as gop.

8. US inflation is *NOT* organic seeing net profit margins are sky high

14. Yay! Maybe I won't have to peel all those Russian propaganda stickers off the gas pump anymore. I think he/she means you monsters and your Biden "I did that stickers". You Russian puppet traitors!

26. Then they'll increase electric prices by 50%. These bastards are going to get you no matter where you turn. Dem policies WILL spike all power prices...looks like they're prepping the battlefield for that info war next!

264 The models and theories our elite subscribe to intentionally misconstrue how the world works. You have to be smart to believe things so dumb.

Two groups are the easiest to con. The uneducated - and the very educated. To con the educated, you need shiny brochures, play on their "intelligence", and promise them something big for relatively nothing. To con the poor, you play on their desperation for something small they think they need, for something they think they can just barely afford.

I used to be terrified that one of my female postdocs would get pregnant. It's bad enough in an office, where you might lose a couple months after the birth, but in a lab, you'd lose the gal's labor for the entire gestation period AND a couple months afterward; so, basically, a year. You can't take the chance that the baby has a problem, which every layman on earth would attribute to mom working in a lab.

284 The Biden Administration's Office of Management and Budget is strongly endorsing a bill to protect Americans from discrimination when it comes to natural hair.

House Resolution 2116 is known as the "Creating a Respectful and Open World for Natural Hair Act of 2022" or the "CROWN Act."

It would prohibit discrimination based on hair texture or style associated with a particular race or ethnicity. Those styles include locs, cornrows, braids, twists, bantu knots and afros.

The bill would require this type of discrimination to be treated as if it were a race or national origin discrimination under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Fair Housing Act and certain other federal civil rights laws.

He wasn't the preferred nominee from the GOP point of view.

My guess is that GPS Fusion was behind that Ted Cruz story about infidelity which was blasted all over the media for about a week straight. As a result, Cruz was hanging tight in the primaries until that period, and just faded afterwards. I think the Dems orchestrated that assuming that Trump would be an easier candidate to beat.

340 He wasn't the preferred nominee from the GOP point of view. But, I suspect, he was not only the preferred candidate from the Democrat party point of view...I believe they took steps to assure that Trump would win the primary. My guess is that GPS Fusion was behind that Ted Cruz story about infidelity which was blasted all over the media for about a week straight. As a result, Cruz was hanging tight in the primaries until that period, and just faded afterwards. I think the Dems orchestrated that assuming that Trump would be an easier candidate to beat.

||NEW YORK (AP) -- A dissident legal scholar who was jailed for two years in China after participating in the 1989 Tiananmen Square pro-democracy movement was killed Monday in his law firm's office in New York, where he had settled after seeking asylum in the U.S., police said.

Li Jinjin, 66, was stabbed to death in the city where he had long worked as an immigration lawyer, even as he continued to advocate publicly for the many people jailed or killed by Chinese authorities during the nation's democracy movement.

An arrest was made in his killing. Police said Xiaoning Zhang, 25, was taken into custody and faces a murder charge. It wasn't immediately clear when she would be arraigned or if she had retained an attorney.||

353 DeSantis has demonstrated a high degree of "independence" that the GOP cannot abide. He'll not be the GOP candidate unless he folds and joins the club. Even then, I suspect he'll be hamstrung with aids and staff as Trump was to keep him from straying too far off the uniparty farm.

But in reality (my reality) the next President is already selected and it's not *biden. It might not even be Harris if the 'tard goes down hard before '24. And it's not DeSantis.

Yan is a dissident who was involved in the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989. He served in the U.S. Army and is a naturalized U.S. citizen.

394 But it's A-OK for American's to do that to a Republican presidential candidate during a presidential election-- even after he is elected.

Then the Secret Police join hands with the influencers and political saboteurs in order to establish absolute control over our government.

So even when the desired candidate misses an election layup, the Secret Police can make a slam dunk to set things right again.

Isn't our Democracy GREAT!
