In the wake of a New York Times report detailing its ties to the Chinese regime, Code Pink and its allies on the far left have decried the “new-McCarthyism” that they say is poisoning the political discourse. But those complaints are not enough to block further scrutiny of this network of activist groups: Senator Marco Rubio is now asking the Justice Department to step in and investigate the matter.

He wrote yesterday to Attorney General Merrick Garland, citing the Times’ reporting and demanding a DOJ investigation into Code Pink and eight other organizations funded by Neville Roy Singham, a tech mogul who now resides in China and attends Chinese Communist Party propaganda-coordination sessions.
