"That is not competition. That is industrial displacement." Senator Tom Cotton is sounding the alarm on a massive national security threat operating directly on American doorsteps. In a blistering letter to the Department of Justice, Cotton demanded an immediate investigation into Chinese-controlled delivery networks undercutting a U.S. logistics sector that supports 1.5 million jobs, all while systematically harvesting "granular data on Americans."

This state-subsidized expansion goes far beyond cheap package delivery for platforms like Temu, Shein, and TikTok Shop. Cotton’s warning targets a massive web of entities, including Chinese giants like Zongteng Group (YunExpress and Cirro Logistics), U.S. affiliates like Gofo and SpeedX, and foreign carriers like UniUni and Tencent-backed J&T Express. Because these couriers constantly move through neighborhoods, commercial districts, and roads near critical infrastructure, they are actively mapping out routes, businesses, and homes. Cotton warns this operates as an unchecked "Communist surveillance" dragnet embedded in daily U.S. commerce.

The economic warfare relies on deliberate, structural fraud. While domestic operators pay federal tariffs in full, Cotton asserts these Chinese-owned firms make a business out of helping clients evade them via transshipment, undervaluation, and ghost importers of record, using the illicit savings to predatory-price Americans out of the market. Cotton wants the DOJ to immediately deploy its federal tools to audit their true ownership, evaluate Beijing’s data access, and prosecute these antitrust and customs violations before foreign surveillance permanently compromises American neighborhoods.

Big news on the transnational repression beat: RightsCon, the world's biggest digital human rights conference, has been CANCELED just days before it was set to begin in Lusaka, Zambia. The government of Zambia — which signed an agreement with China on April 24 — canceled it:

We applaud @USTreasury for taking this bold action to stop China from buying illegal Iranian oil. 

As a recent @ChinaSelect investigation detailed, China is acquiring oil from Iran using its shadow fleet of thousands of foreign-flagged tankers. This report’s policy recommendations called for @USTreasury to sanction ports and terminal operators receiving shadow fleet cargo, such as illegal crude.

Thank you, Taiwan 🇹🇼!

You have provided the largest single donation of ambulances and emergency vehicles since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, 68 vehicles in total!

This generous gift will save countless Ukrainian lives across frontline cities.

UKRAINE WILL WIN!! 🇺🇦

GO JAPAN!!

Japan looks to ban Chinese IT equipment in local gov'ts.

USA, Japan & allies must all ban CCP tech.

But beware! China computer companies will send lobbyists & agents to SWEAR they are not CCP-tied. They do it in every US statehouse.

Thank you to @USAttyPirro, @TheJusticeDept, and the @FBI for their hard work exposing a China-linked scam compound in Burma where trafficked workers were beaten and forced to defraud Americans.

China-linked scam networks are combining cybercrime, human trafficking, and financial theft into a single global threat. We must continue to expose and dismantle these PRC-linked criminal ecosystems.

Taiwan matters more to us than China — and the numbers prove it.

🇹🇼 invests in Czech industry, creates jobs, and brings high-tech know-how
🇨🇳 brings political pressure, security risks, and empty promises

Taiwan is a partner. China is a risk.

Europe should know the difference

From religious persecution to mass detention, the CCP is carrying out its most systematic crackdown since the Cultural Revolution.

Uyghurs, Tibetans, Christians, and pro-democracy advocates, including figures like Jimmy Lai, have been targeted in a sweeping campaign to silence dissent.

Chairman @RepMoolenaar is calling on the Trump administration to put human rights front and center in talks with Xi Jinping.

It is a truth as clear as the moon in the sky that Chinese invaders occupied East Turkistan in 1949 with the assistance of the Soviet Union.

Although the people of East Turkistan fought against the Chinese invaders for six years, in 1955 the People’s Republic of China fully colonized East Turkistan and renamed it the ‘Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.’ Since then, East Turkistan has remained under the colonial rule of communist China.

As we prepare to celebrate #Easter - the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ after His death on the cross - I have written this message to #HongKongers, in my own hand 👇.

In English, my message reads as follows:

As we celebrate Easter, resurrection, new life, and the victory of life over death, I pray special prayers for the release of Hong Kong’s political prisoners, including #JimmyLai, Chow Hang-tung, Lee Cheuk-yan, Albert Ho and all other prisoners unjustly jailed in Hong Kong.

And I pray that even though #HongKong is currently suffering its Crucifixion, it will one day celebrate its Resurrection.

I pray the same for all the peoples of #China, #Tibet, the #Uyghurs and southern Mongolia, and for the defence of #Taiwan’s freedoms. On this day, as the Prince of Peace and the Lord of Life and Love bursts from the grave and defeated death, may everyone who is in jail or under persecution today have hope, that a new dawn will come in which the chains fall off, the prison bars open and all are free – and I will pray and work for that new dawn with everything I have.

🇨🇳🇰🇷Every country hosting large numbers of Chinese students should remember the 2008 Seoul incident.

In April 2008, during the Beijing Olympic torch relay in Seoul, the CCP mobilized around 6,500 Chinese nationals, mostly students, who violently attacked about 180 Tibetan human rights activists.

Hundreds chased several activists into the Seoul Plaza Hotel lobby and brutally assaulted them. An ordinary Korean man was beaten for over 30 minutes simply for holding a leaflet. The mob also attacked Koreans with metal poles, struck riot police, and assaulted foreigners wearing “Free Tibet” T-shirts.

This event showed how quickly China can mobilize its citizens abroad to intimidate or attack on command. It shocked Koreans and planted the seeds of anti-China sentiment.

Eighteen years later, the number of Chinese nationals in South Korea has quadrupled. The CCP’s political and economic penetration may now be beyond control, and our fight against it may already be too late.

Nations must approach Chinese students and immigrants with far greater caution.

This Easter, we remember those in China who cannot worship freely.

From Early Rain Covenant Church to Beijing Zion Church, authorities have detained pastors, threatened lawyers, and charged religious leaders for simply practicing their faith outside CCP oversight.

The CCP’s efforts to control religion have not stopped the spread of belief, only strengthened the resolve of those who continue to worship.
