The Biden administration is shutting down a Justice Department program that focused on countering Chinese espionage, following stumbles in a series of criminal cases and accusations that it amounted to racial profiling.
Officials said Wednesday that the three-year-old effort, known as the China Initiative, was being cast aside largely because of perceptions that it unfairly painted Chinese Americans and U.S. residents of Chinese origin as disloyal.
“By grouping cases under the China Initiative rubric, we helped give rise to a harmful perception that the department applies a lower standard to investigate and prosecute criminal conduct related to that country or that we in some way view people with racial, ethnic or familial ties to China differently,” Assistant Attorney General for National Security Matthew Olsen said in remarks prepared for delivery at George Mason University in Virginia.
However, Justice’s top national security official insisted that the decision amounted to a reframing and recalibration — not an abandonment — of a muscular law enforcement response to the national security threat posed by the People’s Republic of China.

More proof that the Unconstitutionally elected and seated ASS HOLE and his administration belong to Xi's C.C.P.!
This and more is what we can expect from a cognitively imparied Despot, whose policies are anti-American and Pro-Chinese. The whole administration hates the country and is trying to destroy it. I founders would be disgusted and probably would start a second revolution!
They are all bought off, owned by the Chinese
All corruption at the highest levels, will America survive?
The corruption never ends with this bunch of crooks wow now it's ok if China steals our secrets if this doesn't show everyone this bastard is owned by China nothing will
I think our current regime is in bed with both Russia and China! Russia goes after the Ukrain, NATO will not move because they are not a member. When they control Ukrain, Putin will want the rest of Eastern Europe, and the spineless west will betray Eastern Europe as they did after WWII and hand them back to Russia with the promise Putin will be satisfied, will not go after the rest of Europe.
In the meantime China is eyeing Taiwan and Southeast Asia.....to start with, and do not disregard the two joining if they find it necessary!
These SOB are so in bed with these communest it is not funny ,
It is only the beginning, Bidens will milk this as much as possible on both sides!
