After all, a lot of nasty stuff comes into the US from China, so helping put a stop to that would benefit American law enforcement a great deal. Reciprocating just makes sense.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not really what these 110 Overseas stations are really doing.<\/p>\n<p>We know that the Chinese government does a lot of awful things. That includes threatening the families of Chinese nationals currently in the United States, to say nothing of having literal concentration camps.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a government we can trust.<\/p>\n<p>Yet it seems that despite a letter from at least 10 members of Congress asking Attorney General Merrick Garland to do something about these stations, nothing has come of it.<\/p>\n<p>Other nations have started investigations, but not the Biden administration.<\/p>\n<p>Look, I have no issue with there being someone to help Chinese immigrants navigate American bureaucracy. Even if it\u2019s not as bad as Chinese bureaucracy\u2014and while I can\u2019t say for certain, nothing about China\u2019s history suggests we\u2019re worse\u2014it\u2019s still different. Someone helping work through that is a good thing.<\/p>\n<p>But why would Chinese law enforcement be involved, anyway? That\u2019s something for their version of a state department, not the cops. Not on foreign soil, at least.<\/p>\n<p>Which is how you know what you\u2019re seeing is absolute BS.<\/p>\n<p>And yet, our government does nothing. They sit there and allow this kind of thing to happen. If there weren\u2019t enough reasons to criticize the Biden administration, this would be enough all on its own.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine a president letting the USSR do this kind of stuff during the Cold War. You probably can\u2019t, because even left-leaning Democrats knew better. Yet we have fallen from those heights as a nation. We\u2019re allowing a brutal and tyrannical government to exert its power on our soil and doing nothing about it.<\/p>\n<p>Frankly, if we lose our status as a superpower, we deserve to see it happen at this point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do what?
