This is no secret, they've been doing this for years

It is essential that crimes are regarded seriously by law enforcement. I have seen criminals not only emboldened by inaction, but use complacency by law enforcement as a catalyst to attract other criminal sponsors. It is time to handle this seriously.

Should use capital punishment for any type of espionage against us

[jonathannelson]

Would Fang Fang be among those charged? I'm thinking not.

These people are dangerous, the US need to stop cuddling these people and see them for what they are - dangerous!

Didn’t they have a spy center in Houston, Texas a couple of years ago?? Does anyone remember that? Also I remember when I was deployed we couldn’t used those huawei personal internet hotspots because all the messages or inputs would be sent to our enemies.

How ironic...for americans who has the biggest spy agency in the world - CIA angry about other spies? 😅

[vanchick]

Like this hasn't been going on for countless DECADES!!!

[JaJajaja-pfxm]

I didn't hear Hunter's name mentioned. WTF?

[debbie]

Is this Eric Swallwell’s mistress or Diane Feinstein’s chauffeur?

[pleiadesstarr]

Speaking from the largest spies agency in world. 🙄

[benchops]

What about very high ranking politicians or their families that did business with CCP businesses?

[YouGotsTheRabies]

Apparently this was noticed in Canada too.

[tiffanymclean]

They're about to get trounced in November so now they need distractions. That's all this is or they would have done this years ago...

[bubba_good]

20 minutes later they announced the charges again…

[osntfair]

why weren't more of them arrested? took too long to figure out what was going on.

[FirstNameLastName-wtto]

She seriously said with a straight face that the US encourages individualism instead of groupthink.
