Even more than usual, everyone should read Jim Geraghty’s Morning Jolt from Wednesday, about the appalling extent of Chinese government infiltration of our governing system (at the state and federal levels) and society. Jim is right, of course, to observe that few publications or news organizations — at least as of this writing — have picked up on the Washington Post’s reporting about the widespread violence orchestrated by Chinese government agents when, under their influence, San Francisco rolled out the red carpet for Xi Jinping’s appearance at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit last November.
Nevertheless, we are inured to this by now. After all, if the media–Democrat complex yawns over evidence that the president himself was bought by Beijing, why would anything else spur our curiosity?
