UC Davis Harbored Suspected Communist Spy Juan Tang
UC Davis Harbored Suspected Communist Spy Juan Tang
Intrigue in Dems' China-friendly California.
On Friday U.S. authorities arrested Juan Tang, who had sought refuge in the Chinese consulate in San Francisco after being charged with visa fraud last month. Tang had been a visiting cancer researcher at UC Davis, the Davis Enterprise reports, funded by the Chinese Scholarship Council, affiliated with the China’s Ministry of Education and Xijing Hospital in China.
According to the report, the FBI found a 2016 photo of Tang wearing a People’s Liberation Army uniform and an application for government benefits in which Tang revealed she was member of the Chinese Communist Party. After questioning at her Davis apartment, Tang fled to the Chinese consulate in San Francisco. Justice Department officials did not reveal how Tang was apprehended or whether the consulate had turned over the fugitive.
Chen Song, a visiting researcher at Stanford is also charged with visa fraud for lying about affiliations with the Chinese military. These are hardly the first cases of Chinese espionage in California. For some 20 years, in fact, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, San Francisco Democrat, employed a Chinese spy on her staff.
The spy worked as a driver but also served in Feinstein’s San Francisco office, as a liaison to the Asian American community, and even attended Chinese consulate functions for the senator.
When the news broke in 2018, Feinstein professed to be “mortified,” but at a loss as to what information the spy might have passed on to China. Observers might wonder what Feinstein knew and when did she knew it. The Senate Intelligence Committee could have shed light on the Chinese spy, and Chinese espionage in general, but no such hearing took place.
Long before she became a U.S. Senator in 1992, Feinstein had been on good terms with Communist China. She first visited the People’s Republic in 1975, when Chairman Mao still held the reins. Feinstein compared the Tiananmen Square massacre with Kent State, and in 1999 spearheaded efforts to bring China into the World Trade Organization, which removed annual review of the regime’s record on human rights and weapons proliferation.
The San Francisco Democrat has never charted any progress the Communist regime might have made on human rights, and on the 30th anniversary of Tiananmen in 2018, no official statement appeared from the senator. As Rosemarie Ho noted in The Nation, Democrats in general and Feinstein in particular have been rather quiet about the democratic protesters in Hong Kong. For their part, California Democrats have gone out of their way to do business with the Communist power.
The state did not need a new eastern span of the Bay Bridge but California Democrats opted to build one anyway, with steel from Communist China. Democrats even declined to apply for federal funding to avoid the requirement to use steel from American manufacturers. The Chinese company ZPMC lacked bridge construction experience and failed on key quality control measures. The cheaper Chinese was prone to embrittlement, and many of the Chinese welds were defective. The span came in 10 years late, $5 billion over budget, and riddled with safety issues, to which Gov. Jerry Brown famously replied, “I mean, look, shit happens.”
Brown was succeeded by former San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom, whose father Brown had appointed as a judge. On March 4 this year, Newsom declared a state of emergency and the next month struck a $1 billion deal for 200 million masks with Build Your Dreams (BYD) a Chinese company with no experience in protective equipment but troubling ties to the Chinese military. Newsom handed $500 million to BYD up front, and kept details of the deal from fellow Democrats and the public.
Like Sen. Feinstein and his one-time aunt Nancy Pelosi, Gavin Newsom has little to say about democratic demonstrators in Hong Kong. The carefully coiffed governor has exploited the China virus to rule as an autocrat, issuing executive orders by the dozens. When the state economy predictably tanked, Newsom banned protests at the state capitol and ringed the capitol grounds with black-clad CHP forces in full riot gear.
Like Gov. Newsom, state Democrats deploy the coronavirus as a misery index and means to control the people. The numbers hardly justify it, but former Jerry Brown advisor Sen. Steve Glazer, not a doctor or immunologist, wants to lock down the whole state again.
When Newsom declared the emergency he hailed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and said “we are so blessed to have her leadership in California.” State Democrats are doubtless hoping Pelosi will bail out the state after a Biden victory in November. Meanwhile, Juan Tang is not the first researcher to conceal affiliations with China’s Communist government.
As the Los Angeles Times reported last week, a researcher at UC San Francisco was secretly a Chinese military official with “a designated point of contact” at the Chinese consulate. According to John Brown, head of the FBI’s National Security Branch, visa holders with hidden affiliations to the Chinese military have been identified in more than 25 American cities.
FEINSTEIN HAS SPENT HER ENTIRE POLITICAL LIFE STALKING THE HALLS OF CONGRESS SNIFFING OUT DEALS THAT PUT MULTIPLE FORTUNES IN HER HUSBAND, RICHARD BLUM’S POCKETS EVEN AS SHE SOLD OUT AMERICA
The deal would impose no review of human rights and impose no conditions for democratic reforms, supervised multi-party elections and such. All that, and more, is already a done deal with China, like the USSR a one-party Communist dictatorship that never produced a single product the United States needs. This has come about, in large part, due to U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein, San Francisco Democrat.
After Feinstein was elected to the Senate in 1992, Blum continued profiting off their ties to China. A the same time, the freshman lawmaker was pitching herself as a “China hand” to colleagues, even once claiming “that in my last life maybe I was Chinese.” HARIS ALIC

SHE HAS AVOIDED PROSECUTION BY VOTING AGAINST ANY ETHICS BILLS AND HER HUSBAND, RICHARD BLUM'S HANDING OUT "CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION" BRIBES TO EVERY DEMOCRAT OUT THERE!
IN THE November 2006 election, the voters demanded congressional ethics reform. And so, the newly appointed chairman of the Senate Rules Committee, Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., is now duly in charge of regulating the ethical behavior of her colleagues. But for many years, Feinstein has been beset by her own ethical conflict of interest, say congressional ethics experts.

Democrat Traitors Stand by China’s Spy Consulates
Democrat sanctuary cities don’t just provide sanctuary for illegal aliens, but for enemy spies.
Daniel Greenfield, a Shillman Journalism Fellow at the Freedom Center, is an investigative journalist and writer focusing on the radical Left and Islamic terrorism.
On Tuesday, Houston firefighters arrived at 3417 Montrose Boulevard. Neighbors had reported smoke and a burning smell at the Chinese consulate. The consulate, which had been given 72 hours to close by the State Department, did not let them in even as the smoke continued to waft into the summer air.
Video showed consulate employees throwing paper into burning bins.
“We have directed the closure of PRC Consulate General Houston, in order to protect American intellectual property and American’s private information," the State Department had warned.
The Houston consulate had become notorious for trying to intimidate American elected officials in Texas and nearby states, as well as American energy companies, especially those doing business in Asia. Some have also linked the Houston consulate to Chinese espionage against American tech and medical firms.
FBI investigations into the Houston consulate involved theft of medical research, recruiting researchers to get at scientific secrets, and forcing Chinese nationals to return to the People’s Republic of China.
Why would the People’s Republic of China have thought that Houston would be a safe base for spying on and intimidating Americans? Houston and Texas Democrats quickly rushed to provide the answer.
Rep. Al Green, who had hosted a luncheon at the spy consulate, accused President Trump of racism.
“Don’t give the impression, please Mr. President, that they are all spies,” Green whined. “My appeal is to the president to understand that his words take on a meaning that can be harmful to other people.”
Rep. Green then went on to suggest that Trump had endangered his constituents by referring to the pandemic as the 'China virus', and suggested that Trump's actions might be leading to "more anti-Asian American violence, or worse, internment.”
While shamelessly playing the race card, for a race he doesn’t belong to, the Democrat did not discuss his own collaboration with the spy consulate.
Rep. Green had co-hosted a Houston press conference with Consul General Cai Wei of the spy consulate, whom he described as a friend, with Chinese state media in attendance, at which the Democrat urged local residents not to worry about the virus, and described himself and Wei as a “committee of two”.
The Houston Democrat boasted that the enemy consulate was close enough for him to walk to.
That's the same Wei who had been accused of using fake identification to get Chinese nationals through the airport, with whom Rep. Green, an American official, had been meeting with on a regular basis.
Texas state representative Gene Wu, who had also been at the press conference, warned that, "in retaliation, China may basically stop all the investments and tell companies to pull out of here."
Green and Wu were far from the only Democrats playing defense for the Communist dictatorship.
Amid reports that a fugitive spy wanted by the FBI is being harbored by the Chinese consulate in San Francisco, the inescapable reality is that foreign spy compounds operate in Democrat sanctuary cities.
Democrat sanctuary cities don’t just provide sanctuary for illegal aliens, but for enemy spies.
The Trump administration had already ordered the shutdown of the Russian consulate in San Francisco over its espionage. And the Chinese consulate appears as if it will be next. But if the Chinese consulate in Houston was able to garner the support of Democrats at the local and national level, the situation in San Francisco is expected to be much worse because of Chi-Com infiltration of California Democrats.
Chinese intelligence officials at the San Francisco consulate had successfully recruited a staffer at Senator Dianne Feinstein’s San Francisco office and the situation at the local level is much worse.
And Democrats, instead of supporting their country, are once again undermining it in favor of China.
The same Democrat officials who had castigated President Trump for not trusting the “intelligence community” are the ones rejecting intelligence findings about China’s spy networks.
Senator Angus King suggested that the move was a political stunt by President Trump. "Is it really about confronting China, or does it have something to do with an election in four months?"
Former Senator Max Baucus, Obama's ambassador to the Communist dictatorship, has falsely claimed that the closure was "electioneering".
“This is the wrong way to handle it," Baucus wheedled. "If Pompeo thinks he is going to quote ‘change Chinese behavior,’ he is gravely mistaken.”
Baucus' China rhetoric has, in recent months, tipped into blatant PRC propaganda, when he compared Trump to Hitler for opposing the brutal dictatorship in an interview with a Chinese propaganda outlet. Baucus has a consulting firm that works with Chinese businesses, and sits on the boards of several Chinese companies. The media outlets who have had Baucus on have not disclosed his ties to China.
"There are a lot of very responsible people in America who know this China-bashing is irresponsible and we will pay a price if it continues. That is all I am saying," he had warned.
The Democrat has claimed that relations with China will improve if Biden wins the presidency. That’s not surprising since Biden and Baucus are good friends, and Baucus got the ambassadorship due to Biden.
Biden’s China ties have made it impossible for Democrats to confront the Communist dictatorship. Instead they’ve decided to accuse President Trump of closing the consulate as an election stunt even though it’s only July and the closure it hardly likely to have any meaningful impact on the election.
Instead of standing with America, the Democrats are trying to shift the onus to President Trump.
“The White House must be transparent and show that it is taking smart and thoughtful action, rather than engaging in brash foreign policy," Rep. Lizzie Fletcher complained.
Meanwhile local Democrats like Rep. Al Green, and local Houston media, are treating the consulate closure as a hate crime perpetrated by President Trump in order to persecute Asian-Americans.
Gordon Quan, a former Houston City Councilman, contended that, "to have the consulate close, to have accusations being made that this is the hotspot for spying, just creates a further cast upon the loyalties of Chinese Americans.”
And the Chinese Communist propagandists have adopted the familiar playbook of the Left, complaining about racism, and whining that PRC embassies are facing bomb threats and angry messages. This propaganda is coming from a brutal regime which has engaged in genocide, ethnic cleansing, and the ruthless suppression of political dissent, ethnic and religious minorities, and anyone who gets in its way.
Chinese Communist consulates in America, including in Houston, have been used to intimidate Chinese residents in America, and to suppress political protests against China in this country. The Communist regime’s diplomatic corps has organized Chinese students to shout down, threaten, and even physically intimidate political opponents on campuses and even off them in San Francisco.
And yet, Democrats and the media insist on treating the Chinese Communist regime as the victim.
The Democrats are more loyal to their hatred for President Trump than they are to America. And even in the face of blatant enemy action, they choose the People’s Republic of China over the United States. A growing number of Democrats have also been directly or indirectly compromised by the enemy regime.
And that makes President Trump’s crackdown on spy consulates in Democrat cities all the more urgent.
When the State Department closed the spy consulate in Houston, Democrats had to choose between standing with Communist China or standing with America. They chose China and they chose treason.
