Excerpted from the book: ‘Hidden Hand: Exposing How the Chinese Communist Party Is Reshaping the World’
In 2018 the well-connected Washington Post columnist Josh Rogin pointed out that China had been building networks of influence in the United States over many years, and that the U.S. government “is preparing for the possibility that the Chinese government will decide to weaponize” them to get what it wants. (Although Beijing is not known to use Russian-style “active measures” in the West, deploying them is only a matter of political calculation.)
One of the CCP’s most audacious penetration operations, Chinagate in 1996, saw a top intelligence operative meeting a naive President Clinton in the White House, along with donations to the Clinton campaign made through people with ties to the Chinese military.
Northwest Woodsman: Sorry to burst any bubbles, but Bill Clinton was a rube but no naive as stated in this article. He was fully aware that he was providing sensitive material to the Chinese and was being handsomely rewarded for it by financial contributions that were funneled into his accounts for his personal use. The Marxist democrat scoundrel should be locked up for committing more felonies than I could possibly list here. The same applies to the Hildabeast. Difficult to believe that those two held such high political offices but proves my point that the average citizen eligible voter is muse, misled, and a smattering of stupidity mixed in. There must be a genetic component to those who blindly follow what should be obvious regarding, in particular, Marxist democrat politicians.
