Dianne Feinstein’s PATHETIC excuse following Chinese spy revelation proves Mueller probe IS a witch hunt

(National Sentinel)Â Bias:Â Last week a report from far-LeftÂ Politico detailing Russian and Chinese espionage efforts in Silicon Valley contained a massive bombshell nugget that ought to have been the top story for a week for every major news outlet.

In reporting on the ongoing espionage efforts, which are aimed at stealing trade and technology secrets, the news siteÂ noted that the Chinese especially are also conducting political espionage, as there is a large ethnic Chinese presence in San Francisco and the surrounding area.

As reported in the August 3 issue ofÂ Flashpoint Intelligence Review:

Spies from Russia and China are increasingly targeting American technology firms concentrated in Silicon Valley in California to conduct industrial espionage, but whatâ€™s more worrisome is that U.S. intelligence officials donâ€™t believe American tech companies are prepared to deal with the growing threat. Because of the regionâ€™s â€œopen, experimental, cosmopolitan work and business culture,â€ foreign spies are employing â€œnewer, â€˜softer,â€™ nontraditionalâ€ espionage tactics. Most are targeting trade secrets and sophisticated technologies. One former intelligence official said that recently one-fifth of all active FBI counterintelligence operations involving intellectual property cases came from the San Francisco Bay Area.

There is also a fair amount of political espionage taking place involving China, especially. While Beijing is definitely focused on stealing U.S. trade and technology secrets, it is also conducting traditional political intelligence-gathering operations as well. Former intelligence officials even said that China managed to recruit a staffer at Sen. Dianne Feinsteinâ€™s office, who then reported back to Beijing about local politics.

Subsequent reporting byÂ local media noted further that the stafferÂ worked for Feinstein forÂ about 20 years, including the fact that the spy was Feinstein’sÂ driver.
