Axios reported that "a suspected Chinese intelligence operative developed extensive ties with local and national politicians, including a U.S. congressman, in what U.S. officials believe was a political intelligence operation run by China’s main civilian spy agency between 2011 and 2015, Axios found in a yearlong investigation. The woman at the center of the operation, a Chinese national named Fang Fang or Christine Fang, targeted up-and-coming local politicians in the Bay Area and across the country (including Eric Swalwell) who had the potential to make it big on the national stage.

Why it matters: The alleged operation offers a rare window into how Beijing has tried to gain access to and influence U.S. political circles."

With what we are learning about Chinese operations in the US, the depth of their involvement in politics, corporations and national influencers like the media, it does make you think.

But, we don't want to go off half cocked here, like the media and Democrats with the Russia hoax. Yet, when you think about the infiltrations discovered over the past few years at the DNC, Sen. Feinstein's office, now Swalwell, and others, it does make you think.

We will need more facts to determine IF there are any national security breaches, vulnerabilities, or other Chinese control that is problematic, so stay tuned.

That is unless Biden is inaugurated and the Dems win the two senate seats in Georgi. Then this story will evaporate!
