CHINA FLOODS AMERICA WITH SPIES FOR ECONOMIC ESPIONAGE - Who are the ones that want open borders?

FBI Investigating Chinese Espionage in All 50 States

By Joshua Philipp, The Epoch Times


FBI Director Christopher Wray revealed on July 18 that the FBI is investigating Chinese economic espionage cases in all 50 U.S. states, and that China is regarded as the “most significant” long-term threat to the United States.
Wray, speaking to NBC at the Aspen Ideas Forum on July 18, said Chinese espionage “covers everything from corn seeds in Iowa to wind turbines in Massachusetts and everything in between.”
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is using a set of unconventional warfare methods against the United States, designed to achieve the goals of war without the need for troop-on-troop combat. This includes subversive methods to infiltrate and undermine U.S. institutions, propaganda operations to alter public perception, economic warfare programs to steal from the U.S. economy, and more.
Many of these strategies were outlined in a 1999 Chinese military book, “Unrestricted Warfare.” Many of the tactics also pull from older subversive methods used by the Soviet Union, and go beyond them.
Subversion is used by communist regimes to gradually seize control of a country by attacking and undermining the institutions that make it function, driving its population into conflict, in order to bring the country to a state of crisis that allows for outside intervention, either through foreign invasion or a new political structure.
It is also designed to gradually achieve the goal of creating a communist state by subverting and destroying religious belief, morality, and tradition through infiltrating institutions, and by creating advocacy movements, among other methods.
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) brought attention to the economic arm of the CCP’s unrestricted warfare system in a hearing on July 19.
Commenting on the hearing, Frank Gaffney, president and CEO of the Center for Security Policy, said in an interview with Secure Freedom Minute Radio that “amidst the political jockeying in Washington to establish which party is more hostile to Vladimir Putin’s Russia, an even more ominous threat is getting scant attention.”
“Fortunately, the fact that Communist China has actually been waging ‘unrestricted warfare’ against the United States for decades is the focus of an important congressional hearing today,” Gaffney said.
“The hearing is particularly timely in light of President Trump’s efforts to use tariffs, investment restrictions, and other measures to fight back. It may be one of our last chances to do so.”
The CCP’s unrestricted warfare system is often highlighted in discussions about Chinese cyber threats and theft of intellectual property, but the strategies go far beyond this.
Unrestricted warfare utilizes a long list of methods, including “culture warfare,” “smuggling warfare,” “drug warfare,” “environmental warfare,” “guerrilla warfare,” and many others. These methods may be divided into categories of needing no military involvement, some military involvement, or full military involvement.

A related strategy, inducted into the official strategies of the CCP’s People’s Liberation Army, is its “Three Warfares” system, which includes psychological warfare designed to alter how people interpret information, media warfare to control what information is available, and legal warfare to manipulate international court systems.
While the subversive and unconventional warfare tactics used by the CCP are coming to light, the broader picture is still not widely understood, according to Casey Fleming, CEO of BlackOps Partners Corp., a global intelligence strategy and cyber advisory company.
“Most senior leaders and lawmakers are unaware of the deep extent of espionage and vast infiltration Chinese government has perpetrated in all sectors over the past two decades,” Fleming said.
“It is part of the Chinese regime’s strategy to feign partnerships while gutting the American economy of stolen innovation, trade secrets, and intellectual property from every sector: business, military, government, academia, and even think tanks and law firms.”
According to Fleming, while Chinese espionage cases are now being investigated across the United States, the cases need to be understood in the broader context of the CCP’s strategies.
“Extensive Chinese espionage is tied to a broader strategy to subvert the United States ideologically and to eventually overtake the United States both financially and militarily through robust and consistent intellectual property theft, under the guise of plausible deniability,” he said.
Wray, speaking at Aspen, also briefly explained this concept, stating that China is “trying to position itself as the sole dominant superpower” and that “they’re trying to replace the United States in that role.”
“I think China, from a counterintelligence perspective, represents in many ways the broadest, most challenging, most significant threat we face as a country,” Wray said.
“The volume of it, the pervasiveness of it, the significance of it, is something that I think this country cannot underestimate.”

Washington, D.C. (July 20, 2018) – The United States allows in more than 1 million legal permanent residents every year – more than all countries in the world combined. Jan Ting, Professor of Law at the Temple University Beasley School of Law, asks the question, “How many lawful permanent residents should we continue to admit every year?”

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S WAR ON AMERICA’S LEGAL WORKERS, BORDERS AND LAWS as they build the LA RAZA welfare state on our backs.

One in every eleven persons born in Mexico has gone to the U.S. The National Review reported that in 2014 $1.87 billion was spent on incarcerating illegal immigrant criminals….Now add hundreds of billions for welfare and remittances!  MICHAEL BARGO, Jr…… for the AMERICAN THINKER.COM


"Chairman of the DNC Keith Ellison was even spotted wearing a shirt stating, "I don't believe in borders" written in Spanish.

According to a new CBS news poll, 63 percent of Americans in competitive congressional districts think those crossing illegally should be immediately deported or arrested.  This is undoubtedly contrary to the views expressed by the Democratic Party.

Their endgame is open borders, which has become evident over the last eight years.  Don't for one second let them convince you otherwise." Evan Berryhill Twitter @EvBerryhill.

College-Grad Salaries Eroded by Hidden Army of 1.5 Million Visa-Workers



Every CEO in every company sees the business opportunity: Will I earn higher profits by replacing my American staff with cheaper H-1B workers? The answer is an obvious yes.
The Washington-imposed economic policy of economic growth via mass-immigration shifts wealth from young people towards older people by flooding the market with foreign labor. That process spikes profits and Wall Street values by cutting salaries for manual and skilled labor offered by blue-collar and white-collar employees. The policy also drives up real estate priceswidens wealth-gaps, reduces high-tech investment, increases state and local tax burdens, hurts kids’ schools and college education, pushes Americans away from high-tech careers, and sidelines at least 5 million marginalized Americans and their families, including many who are now struggling with opioid addictions.

STARING IN THE FACE of AMERICA’S UNRAVELING and the ROAD TO REVOLUTION

It will more likely come on the heels of economic dislocation and dwindling wealth to redistribute.”
"The kind of people needed for violent change these days are living in off-the-grid

rural compounds, or the “gangster paradise” where the businesses of drugs, guns,

There can be no resolution to any social problem confronting the population in the United States and internationally outside of a frontal assault on the wealth of the financial elite. 

 The political system is controlled by this social layer, which uses a portion of its economic plunder to bribe politicians and government officials, whether Democratic or Republican.

Report exposes rise in alcohol-related deaths among Millennials in US


By Isaac Finn
20 July 2018
A study published last Wednesday in the British Medical Journal exposes the devastating and long-lasting impact of the 2008 economic crisis on the rise of deaths related to alcoholism, cirrhosis and liver cancer among 25- to 34-year-olds within the United States. The increase is one part of a rising number of “deaths of despair” caused by suicide and drug and alcohol abuse, which have contributed to declining life expectancy in the US.
The study, entitled “Mortality due to cirrhosis and liver cancer in the United States, 1999-2016: observational study,” was written by University of Michigan Medical School assistant professor and liver specialist Dr. Elliot Tapper and fellow professor Dr. Neehar Parikh. The two liver specialists drew extensively from federal data in death certificates and from the US Census Bureau.
The report’s findings include a decline in cirrhosis-related deaths among a number of subgroups within the population between 1999 and 2008 followed by a reversal of this process among nearly all groups between 2009 and 2016. This data is particularly shocking since medical treatment for leading causes of cirrhosis, a condition where the liver does not function properly due to damage, such as hepatitis C, have been developed. As a result, the growth in cirrhosis has largely come from alcoholic liver disease and non-alcoholic liver disease.
The total number of deaths from cirrhosis was 460,760 throughout the entire period covered in the report, with the annual total increasing by 65 percent from 1999 to 2016. The authors note, “Deaths due to cirrhosis are expected to triple by 2030.”
According to the study 25- to 34-year-olds were particularly hard-hit and experienced the highest average annual percentage change in death from cirrhosis, increasing by 10.5 percent in the period between 2009 to 2016. It also clarified that whites and Native Americans had the most rapid increase in mortalities compared to other identified ethnic groups.
There was also a 2.1 percent increase in deaths caused by hepatocellular carcinoma, a form of liver cancer, over the period covered in the study. Similar to cirrhosis, deaths from hepatocellular carcinoma should have likely decreased since the principle cause—hepatitis B—is easily treatable. Unlike cirrhosis, however, deaths from hepatocellular carcinoma had been on the decline among younger sections of the population but have risen among individuals older than 55.
The authors explicitly state that the rise in cirrhosis and hepatocellar carcinoma is likely caused by the devastating conditions facing workers and youth. They note in the study, “Given that worsening trends began after 2008, a year marked by the global financial crisis and a subsequent economic recession in the USA, a differential economic impact on specific states may explain some of the results.” They also note that rise in both cirrhosis and liver cancer is disproportionately impacting young men compared to older women, which would back up their claim that it was related to economic instability.
“We hypothesize that there may be a loss of opportunity, and the psychological burden that comes with that may have driven some of those patients to abusive drinking,” Parikh told NPR.
Other physicians have concurred with the study’s findings, such as liver specialist Dr. Sumeet Asrani, who noted, “It fits with what we see in practice. We’re seeing younger and younger patients with alcoholic liver disease.”
The development of cirrhosis at such a young age, however, reflects the devastation of an entire generation of young workers that do not see a future for themselves, or feel that their only escape from their difficulties is through drugs or alcohol.
A recent British Medical Journal editorial pointed out that more than 64,000 people died in 2015 from drug overdose, with a 137 percent increase in fatalities from drugs between 2000 to 2014. This is the outcome of the opioid crisis that is devastating large sections of the US, which is the direct result of deindustrialization and a conscious policy of pharmaceutical companies flooding impoverished areas with cheap pills.
Similar sentiments of despair find expression in the rise of suicides among 10- to 19-year-olds by more than 12 percent between 2013 and 2016. Suicide rates have also increased among the general population by 25 percent between 1996 and 2016, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The rise in suicides and drug and alcohol related deaths is a stark indictment of the entire capitalist system and its failure to provide opportunities for a new layer of youth as they are starting their adult life. These failures have found a depressing expression in the last period is due largely to the artificial suppression of the class struggle by the pro-company unions. The eruption of mass workers struggles will allow this dissatisfaction to find a progressive expression as young workers and students take up the fight for jobs and decent living standards.
