Intelligence experts say female Chinese Communist spies have long been playing a beauty ploy inside the United States, and it continues today.
Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) has been exposed as a target of Chinese spy Fang Fang.
U.S. intelligence experts are not even sure how many female spies are in the U.S. today, but a rough estimate is that there could be as many as a few thousand, with the Chinese spies in particular being the “most sophisticated” (the most insidious). A former CIA station chief suggested that the diversification of Chinese espionage activities, in addition to the U.S. bipartisan efforts to deal with, but also need the help of Chinese diaspora leaders.
According to Apple Daily, Hox News quoted current and former intelligence officials as saying that female spy Fang Fang used campaign fundraising, her own connections, and personal charisma to carry out her mission, and that at least two other Midwestern mayors had dated or had sexual relations with her in addition to Swalwell. However, Swalwell is a member of the House Intelligence Committee, often receiving a large amount of classified information, so he fell into the beauty trap, causing the biggest questions.
Former CIA: Chinese Communist spy buried herself before politician became famous
The CIA’s former station chief, Daniel Hoffman, said, “I can say with great certainty that there are a lot of these women in the country, Chinese women buried here.”
Intelligence experts are currently unable to determine how many female spies are inside the United States, with estimates ranging from hundreds to thousands. These spies attend prestigious U.S. universities, speak fluent English and often use social media to connect with their targets. (They) want to be trustworthy and share information with (their targets),” Hoffman said. The spies wanted to understand the character of the target and every detail of his work, and they wanted to reach out and connect with up-and-coming politicians like Swalwell because they understood that once these politicians had established a reputation, it was much more difficult to build relationships afterwards.”
Del Wilber, a former member of the Intelligence Court, said, “Women spies try to make contact with their targets, who are almost exclusively men, but there are some women who are targets. The job of these female spies is to make the target compromise, usually by taking photos or videos of the target’s misconduct as evidence (to coerce).” Among them, married men are most often targeted because they are more likely to succumb to concerns such as divorce, loss of government recognition and jobs.
In addition to beauty ploys, Hoffman describes the CCP as doing everything it can to steal classified information. For example, the Chinese Consulate General in Houston was shut down this year because of spying there, and even a company owned by Chinese military personnel bought large tracts of land in Texas to build a windmill farm, but actually used it to spy on a neighboring U.S. Air Force base.
Hoffman noted, “We have missed the opportunity to learn lessons and right wrongs, and we need to help those state and local elected officials who were looked at by the Chinese Communist Party, and Swalwell was one of them, when he was looked at in 2011, as a low-level council member.”
However, Swalwell is now a key member of the Democratic Party in the House of Representatives, but has also caused Republicans to question his continued competence to serve on the Intelligence Committee because of his misguided beauty contest.
Fang Fang was involved in Swalwell’s 2014 re-election fundraising campaign, planting at least one intern in Swalwell’s office, as well as interacting with Swalwell at several events over a period of years, according to comprehensive U.S. media reports. Swalwell said the FBI warned him in 2015 and he immediately cut ties with Fang. Fang Fang is also suspected to have fled the United States because of the failure. Asked whether he had sex with Fang Fang, Swalwell has avoided answering.
