Espionage? Chinese Nationals Gate-Crashed U.S. Installations 100 Times

Chinese nationals have illicitly tried to access U.S. military installations and other sensitive areas some 100 times in recent years, raising the issue of espionage.

The Wall Street Journal reported this weekend that these incidents range from individuals claiming they were just following GPS to get to restaurants that are actually on bases to speeding through checkpoints to scuba divers. Since we know that the America-hating Chinese Communist Party planted half a dozen illicit police stations in the U.S. and infiltrated all major U.S. institutions and levels of government, the risk of espionage is very real.

One 2020 incident at the naval air station in Key West led to three arrests. Back in 2019, a Chinese woman received eight months’ jail time after unlawful entrance to then-President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.
