The Rant-Internal Threat?

The Overseas Chinese Service Center of Minnesota in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has been found to have ties to China's United Front Work Department, a powerful organization within the Chinese Communist Party. The center, established in 1995, provides services such as language assistance and cultural exchange programs to the Chinese community in the state. However, its ties to the United Front Work Department and the Chinese government have raised questions about its true intentions. The China Chamber of Commerce in the United States, a nonprofit organization promoting business and trade between China and the US, and the Confucius Institute, a Chinese language and culture education program funded by the Chinese government, have been accused of promoting a positive image of China and suppressing critical discussions about the Chinese government. Huawei Technologies, a Chinese multinational technology company, has also been accused of espionage and intellectual property theft. The web of pro-Beijing nonprofits and businesses collaborating with the Overseas Chinese Service Center of Minnesota raises concerns about foreign influence and espionage in the United States.
