EXCLUSIVE: House Committee To Investigate Spike In Chinese Illegal Immigration Following DCNF Report

Dan Bishop, chair of the subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability, told the DCNF that a “wide-open border presents a ripe opportunity for the [Chinese Communist Party] to undermine our national security.”

A House committee is scheduled to examine the historic surge in Chinese illegal immigration next week, the Daily Caller News Foundation has learned.

The House Homeland Security Committee’s Subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability will hold a hearing on Thursday concerning the roughly 8,000% increase in Chinese illegal immigration the U.S. has experienced since March 2021, a committee spokesperson told the DCNF. The DCNF recently revealed an internal U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) email showing that the Biden administration dramatically simplified the vetting process for Chinese illegal immigrants in April 2023, which has increased the speed of Chinese illegal immigrants entering the country.

The CBP email directed Border Patrol agents to reduce the 40 questions they were required to ask Chinese illegal immigrants down to just five “basic questions” concerning their “Military Service,” “Universities,” “POB/Region,” “Employment” and “Political Party.”

North Carolina Republican Rep. Dan Bishop, chair of the subcommittee on Oversight, Investigations, and Accountability, told the DCNF that a “wide-open border presents a ripe opportunity for the [Chinese Communist Party] to undermine our national security.”

“This dramatic surge calls for intense scrutiny — especially as Border Patrol agents have been instructed to decrease vetting for Chinese nationals in order to process them into the country faster,” Bishop said. “As the CCP continues its quest for geopolitical dominance and threatens our sovereignty, we must examine the risks presented by releasing ever-increasing numbers of minimally-vetted Chinese nationals into our communities.”

U.S. authorities have encountered 24,376 Chinese nationals at the southwest border in fiscal year 2024 alone, according to the committee. In February 2024, the Republican National Committee adopted a resolution condemning the Biden administration’s immigration policies, citing the national security threat posed by “Chinese military-aged men” entering the country illegally, the DCNF reported.

Ammon Blair, a former Border Patrol agent and Army veteran, told the DCNF that “being a Border Patrol agent during the surge in Chinese illegal aliens felt like confronting a scene from ‘Red Dawn.’”

“Gradually, it appeared that our role was being coerced by current administration policies, from honorably defending our borders to paradoxically laying down a ‘Silk Road’ for our adversaries,” said Blair, who now works as senior fellow for the Texas Public Policy Foundation. “This evolution in policy seems complicit in the CCP invasion and their embedded threats like cyber warfare, drug warfare with Mexican cartel proxies, and economic destabilization.”

The simplification of the vetting process for Chinese illegal immigrants and other Biden administration policies have “created pitch-perfect conditions” for “the infiltration of Chinese agents of espionage,” Todd Bensman, a senior national security fellow at the Center For Immigration Studies, told the DCNF.

“Intelligence community assessments show that China intends to ramp up espionage and political suppression campaigns in the coming years inside the U.S. and will need an expanded labor force for the effort,” said Bensman, who is one of three experts scheduled to testify during Thursday’s hearing.

Bensman’s testimony will feature photos of identification cards and passports discarded by Chinese illegal immigrants just after crossing the U.S. southern border, a committee source told the DCNF.

Cory Gautereaux, a small business owner and veteran living near the San Diego border, collected those discarded materials and shared them with Bensman.

Gautereaux told the DCNF that he believes Chinese illegal immigration is a “serious national security threat.”

“If they are discarding their IDs and hiding their identity there is a reason,” Gautereaux said. “Since our elected leaders are reluctant to visit the border, I’ll be glad to physically deliver these items to Washington and testify to what I’ve seen.”

Elections Canada agency unable to refute allegations of Chinese operatives posing as poll workers in 2021

Elections Canada admitted that no background checks were conducted on volunteers, adding that it could not say for sure whether agents of the Chinese Communist Party infiltrated polls in the Aurora-Oak Ridges riding.

After a former MP revealed that agents of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) allegedly worked at the polls during the 2021 federal election, Elections Canada admitted it could not refute the statement made by the former elected official.

As reported by LifeSiteNews earlier this week, documents from a federal inquiry looking at meddling in Canada’s past two elections by foreign state actors show that agents of the CCP allegedly worked at Elections Canada polling centers in the 2021 campaign.

The documents show that former Conservative MP Leona Alleslev noted in a sworn affidavit that she was told by Chinese Canadians they knew foreign operatives were working at polling stations. She also noted that she had received many complaints from Chinese Canadians that they were too scared to vote.

As recently noted by Blacklock’s Reporter, Elections Canada said in a statement that “It would be impossible for us to make any kind of determination with certainty” about Alleslev’s claims. However, it noted that “we should note that there are safeguards present at every stage of the electoral process. Transparency is one of the key pillars of electoral democracy.”

“All poll workers sign a solemn declaration that they will be non-partisan while working at an election and protect the secrecy of the vote,” said Elections Canada, adding that it was their “job” to make it possible for “electors to vote in an orderly fashion.”

Elections Canada went on to admit that no background checks were conducted on volunteers, adding that it could not say for sure whether agents of the CCP infiltrated polls in the Aurora-Oak Ridges riding.

Alleslev lost the election and her seat to Liberal MP Leah Taylor Roy by 1,460 votes. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberals won the 2021 election by a narrow margin.

According to Alleslev’s affidavit, about “half the Chinese Canadian constituents she canvassed would tell Ms. Alleslev they were afraid to vote for her because they feared repercussions against themselves or their family members both in Canada and in China.”

“Some claimed they took the threat seriously because there were agents of the Chinese Communist Party working in the local Elections Canada office and in the polling stations or monitoring outside of the significantly reduced number of polling stations to watch who voted,” it read.

The commission is headed by Justice Marie-Josée Hogue, who had earlier said she and her lawyers will remain “impartial” and will not be influenced by politics. In January, Hogue said that she would “uncover the truth whatever it may be.”

As for Trudeau, he has praised China for its “basic dictatorship” and has labeled the authoritarian nation his favorite country other than his own.

RFK Jr. tells Tucker he would serve as Trump’s CIA director if asked

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said it’s unlikely that he would receive Senate confirmation because committee members are ‘just safeguarding that (CIA) directorship and I would be very, very dangerous for those committees.’

Former presidential candidate turned Donald Trump supporter Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Tucker Carlson this week that he would definitely serve as the director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

“If you were asked, would you run it?” Carlson asked.

“Yes, I would,” Kennedy replied. “But I would never get Senate confirmation.”

 

Kennedy made major news last week when just one day after the Democratic National Convention he endorsed the former president in his bid for the Oval Office.

Kennedy was given a hero’s welcome by Trump at a rally in Arizona, during which he spoke about the need to end childhood illnesses and the “chronic disease epidemic” in America.

 

Kennedy’s interview with Carlson indicates he has a sober grasp of the power the Deep State has over U.S. politics.

“As you know, the intelligence (agencies) are protected by very, very powerful committees in the Senate and the House,” Kennedy remarked. “And the people who serve on those committees … they’re just safeguarding that (CIA) directorship and I would be very, very dangerous for those committees.”

The pair additionally spoke about other areas of agreement between Kennedy and President Trump as well, in particular Trump’s promise to establish a commission to declassify the remaining documents pertaining to President John F. Kennedy’s assassination in 1963.

“I think everyone at this point knows the truth, which is the CIA is implicated in that. Those documents protect (the) CIA, maybe among others,” Carlson said.

“It’s odd that they’ve not allowed them to be released,” Kennedy replied. “It clearly is to protect the institution … and that’s wrong.”

Both Kennedy and Carlson noted that it was Mike Pompeo, a neocon who served as Trump’s CIA director in 2017-2018 who pressured Trump to not declassify those documents while he was in office for his first term.

While a formal role in Trump’s second administration has not been announced, Kennedy revealed that he is working on policy issues with the campaign at the moment and that if Trump wins he will be helping with the transition team to select persons who will run the government.

During an appearance on the Shawn Ryan Show podcast this week, Trump admitted that when he first won in 2016, he didn’t really know who to hire and that this time around he would select different people to fill key positions.

“I was a New York person, not a Washington, D.C. person,” he said. “In retrospect, I also picked some people I wouldn’t have picked. Now I know the smart ones, the dumb ones, the weak ones, the solid ones.”

Kennedy also said that he believes a historic political realignment is taking place as the Democratic Party has become the party of war and censorship ushering in a “corrupt” merger between state and corporate power.

On Monday, former Democratic Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard followed in Kennedy’s footsteps and endorsed Trump at a rally for the National Guard Association in Detroit. Gabbard’s defection is significant in that she was a rising star on the political left not long ago, having served as vice chair of the Democratic National Party from 2013 until 2016. She resigned from that position in disgust after the presidential primary was rigged to ensure Hillary Clinton and not Bernie Sanders would be the nominee.
