According to a Strider report, this development is "supercharging China’s threat to American national security."

China is stepping up its influence on American companies and institutions by spying on them in various ways: from tech giants like Twitter and Facebook to public institutions such as Congress, the Army and the Federal Reserve. The communist regime in Beijing also showed interest in the major parties and even in U.S. agriculture and security forces, opening an overseas police station in New York.

Evidence has shown that Biden family collaborated with a Chinese company, and even Hunter Biden was "happy" to do business with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Now, a new chapter has opened regarding China and its interest in influencing the United States and becoming the world's greatest power.

According to a report by software development firm Strider accessed by NBC News, more than 150 researchers of Chinese origin who had been hired by the federal government are now working in military laboratories for the CCP. Despite the fact that these workers may have privileged information, the Department of Energy (DOE) considered that "international collaboration is critical to its efforts" and stated that it "works hard to protect critical defense technology."

Strider notes in its report that many of the researchers worked on federally funded projects at Los Alamos National Laboratory over the past twenty years. Now, they are exploring new military techniques and weaponry such as "hypersonic missiles, warheads and silent submarines" for the communist regime in Beijing. It should be noted that Los Alamos National Laboratory served to coordinate the design of atomic bombs as part of the Manhattan Project in World War II. According to the report, this link between the lab and the CCP is "enhancing China's threat to U.S. national security."

From collecting $20 million to joining a CCP program

One of the researchers who worked at Los Alamos was Zhao Yusheng, who collected more than $20 million from taxpayers for research purposes. In addition, the DOE granted him top secret "level Q" clearance, with which he developed deep-earth penetrating warheads.

Years later, in 2016, the Chinese Communist Party recruited Zhao for a talent program conducting military research. In addition, Xi Jinping appointed him vice president of the South China University of Science and Technology. With this type of program, the communist regime in Beijing pays million-dollar contracts to Chinese researchers working abroad to use their knowledge and experience to strengthen its military armament.

"World class army"

The CCP re-elected Xi Jinping as its general secretary a few days ago. He thus becomes the nation's first leader to remain in power for more than two terms since Mao Zedong.

Xi's first goal in his new term is for China to have a "world-class army." To do so, it has hired researchers to achieve the weapons breakthrough it so craves to achieve "self-sufficiency":

China will accelerate efforts to achieve greater self-sufficiency in science and technology. We will work faster to modernize military theory, personnel and weapons. We will enhance the military’s strategic capabilities to improve its ability to win.
