Between 2010 and 2020 it’s estimated that 1100 Chinese came across the southern border. In the first 11 months of ’23‚ it’s estimated that 33‚000 came across. Many of them military-age men. Where do they go once they come across the border? We have no idea. They’re not being monitored. They’re not being followed. Look‚ in China‚ you don’t just decide‚ ‘You know what‚ I think I’ll take a trip.’ They have to go through certain steps to get out of China. It costs a lot of money to get here.When they get here‚ what are they doing? If they’re working in farming? If they’re working in industry‚ I promise you they are expected to do certain things. Are they spying? Are they sending seeds back from farming to China? Are they getting plans from industries they’re working in? Who knows what they’re doing. We don’t know. We need to know. Investigative reporter Michael Yon has warned that the influx of Chinese military-aged males represents the Communist Chinese exploiting migration as a weapon to take over the United States.
