DOJ says China is harboring wanted Chinese military researcher at its San Francisco consulate
The U.S. government believes that a Chinese researcher who was charged by the Justice Department with visa fraud for concealing her ties to the Chinese military is currently hiding out in China’s consulate in San Francisco.
Tang Juan was interviewed by the FBI on June 20 about her concealing her ties to the People’s Liberation Army while she was a researcher at the University of California, Davis, and the FBI executed a search of her home and her electronics media showing further evidence she’d hidden her ties to the PLA when applying for a visa. Court documents show that the bureau “assesses that, at some point following the search and interview … Tang went to the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco, where the FBI assesses she has remained.”
The revelation, first reported by Axios on Wednesday, comes the same day that the United States revealed it had ordered the Chinese government to shut down its consulate in Houston.
The FBI’s assessment that the Chinese consulate in San Francisco has been harboring a fugitive from U.S. authorities was revealed in a seven-page detention memo related to another Chinese national — Chen Song, an active-duty PLA military scientist who was arrested for allegedly committing visa fraud as a researcher at Stanford University — dated July 20 and authored by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of California. The FBI memo argued that “as the Tang case demonstrates, the Chinese consulate in San Francisco provides a potential safe harbor for a PLA official intent on avoiding prosecution in...
WOMAN SHOT DEAD AFTER FOLLOWING COMMUNITY LEADER’S ADVICE TO SETTLE DISPUTES WITH RIOTERS WITHOUT POLICE
A Brooklyn woman who followed Borough President Eric Adams’ advice for New Yorkers to settle disputes neighbor-to-neighbor rather than calling 911 wound up shot dead after she confronted some punks setting off illegal fireworks, the victim’s grieving mom said.
Shatavia Walls, 33, was blasted eight times in an East New York public housing complex on July 7, simply for asking the fiends to take their dangerous display away from a group of playing kids — exactly how Adams had urged constituents to act in the face of the pyrotechnic plague.
“She watched the news. Yes, she heard it,” Helen Testagros, Walls’ heartbroken mother, told The Post on Sunday, referring to Adams’ advice. “It was probably in the back of her mind.”
Amid increasing complaints of illegal fireworks detonations, Adams on June 21 said people should talk to their neighbors about the “nonviolent act,” rather than call the authorities and risk a “heavy-handed” police response.
But Testagros said that to take that approach on the mean streets is to take your life into your own hands.
“It’s not a good idea. You don’t know who you are approaching,” she said. “These kids are not respectful anymore. … They’re more ruthless.”
Walls found that out the hard way on July 4, Testagros said.
While visiting her mom, siblings and extended family in NYCHA’s Pink Houses, Walls was troubled by a group setting off fireworks in a playground on the sprawling development as young children played just feet away, Testagros said.
A “scuffle” ensued, and one of the creeps chased Walls into her mother’s building, pulled out a gun and fired a single shot at her, according to Testagros.
The round missed Walls, who had the presence of mind to scoop up both the shell casing and the New York state driver’s license of the alleged gunman who dropped it while fleeing, Testagros said.
Walls called 911 to report the attack, and supplied police with the name, home address and physical description of her alleged assailant, based on the ID she recovered, Testagros said.
The Post is withholding the identity of the man, an alleged gangbanger, because he has yet to be arrested, charged or formally identified as wanted.
An NYPD spokeswoman on Sunday disputed that account, saying the department only became aware of the July 4 incident during an investigation into a second run-in on July 7.
In that encounter, an undeterred Walls and pal Kelvin Hernandez again asked a band of fuse-lighting fiends to scram from the playground around 8:30 p.m., according to police sources.
That group didn’t include the man who’d previously shot at Walls, but one of them went to retrieve him and he came running, Testagros said.
“He was chasing her, hopping over the gates, shooting,” said Testagros.
After one round found its target, the gunman moved in for the kill:
BOMBSHELL ADMISSION: Chinese State Media Claims Coronavirus Is A Tool To ‘Beat’ Trump
CHINESE STATE MEDIA HAS ADMITTED IT VIEWS THE NOVEL CORONAVIRUS AS A TOOL TO “BEAT” PRESIDENT TRUMP, CONFIRMING THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION’S INSISTENCE CHINA HAS SOUGHT POLITICAL GAIN FROM THE VIRUS.
China Global Television Network (CGTN) issued a nearly six-minute video entitled “Can COVID-19 beat populism?” in which the Chinese Communist Party-run network leverages the coronavirus as “another straw on the camel’s back to expose [Trump’s] hollow politics.”
In addition to attacking President Trump, the video also went after China-skeptic political leaders such as Brazil’s Jair Bolsonaro and Britain’s Boris Johnson.
The video confirms Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s insistence that China has leveraged coronavirus to its benefit.
The Mail reports that Sec. Pompeo “used a visit to London to outline a vision for a global coalition to counter the communist regime as he accused its leadership of exploiting the coronavirus pandemic to further its own interests.”
While President Trump’s actions on coronavirus were certainly not “hollow”, moving to suspend travel from China in January, CGTN insisted the virus was a “test” that “most of the populist leaders have failed.”
CGTN is keen on politicizing coronavirus, insisting its silver lining is that “more people are beginning to realize that their populist rhetoric is nothing but empty promises.”
“Populist leaders like U.S. President Donald Trump are good at whipping up populist sentiment. They look strong. They promise they can “get things done.” They are “experts” at manipulating people’s feelings. But here’s the twist:
Every Player On The Nationals And Yankees Kneels For Marxists Prior To The National Anthem
Every single member of the Washington Nationals and New York Yankees took a knee prior to the national anthem Thursday night.
Players on both squads kneeled before the anthem ahead of the home opener for Washington. According to the Yankees, it was done “together in unity.”
We’re weeks out from the NFL starting, and the MLB already has entire teams taking a knee. If you thought this was going away, I can promise you that it’s not.
CRIMINAL MALFEASANCE: St. Louis Prosecutor's Office Busted Altering Evidence; Reassembled Non-Operable McCloskey Pistol To Classify As Lethal
In Missouri, police and prosecutors must prove that a weapon is “readily” capable of lethal use when it is used in the type of crime with which the McCloskeys have been charged.
Assistant Circuit Attorney Chris Hinckley ordered crime lab staff members to field strip the handgun and found it had been assembled incorrectly. Specifically, the firing pin spring was put in front of the firing pin, which was backward, and made the gun incapable of firing, according to documents obtained by 5 On Your Side.
Firearms experts then put the gun back together in the correct order and test-fired it, finding that it worked, according to the documents. -KSDK5

According to the report, crime lab workers photographed the disassembly and reassembly of the pistol.
The McCloskeys attorney, Joel Schwartz, told KSDK that the St. Louis couple intentionally misplaced the firing pin on the gun, rendering it inoperable. They turned the pistol in to their former attorney Al Watkins following the incident last month.
