The CCP's ability to influence American elections

CCP SPY $$$ SPIGOT EXPOSED: How a U.S. Visa Program Designed by a Chinese Spy Lets Beijing Funnel Money into American Elections


Peter Schweizer’s new book The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon details how a seemingly innocuous program to entice foreign investors became a massive operation for laundering foreign donations to American politicians, primarily Democrats.

The plot revolved around a program established by the 1990 Immigration Act called the Employment-Based Fifth Preference (EB-5) visa. It was ostensibly intended to encourage foreign investors to put big money into American business and job creation.


Foreigners who invested at least $1.05 million (or $800,000 in certain economically-distressed areas) and created at least ten American jobs were issued a green card and permanent resident status. Applicants under this fast-tracked program were subjected to very little scrutiny.

In practice, the EB-5 program became a gateway to outrageous levels of foreign interference in American politics, and there are good reasons to believe it was designed that way from its inception.
