A nationwide crackdown on illegal immigration is underway.
It has already led to some scary results.
And ICE arrested one spy in Florida that left Donald Trump on red alert.
Chinese spy among illegal aliens arrested in Florida
Democrats and their public relations team in the media want to portray every illegal alien in the country as a salt-of-the-earth person who just came here for a better life.
But the reality is much different.
The first phase of President Donald Trump’s plan for the mass deportation of illegal aliens is targeting heinous criminals and national security threats.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal law enforcement conducted a sweep in Florida that netted criminals, human traffickers, and a Chinese spy.
ICE agents arrested 71-year-old Xiao Guang Pan, an alleged Chinese spy, after he allegedly used a drone to take pictures of Cape Canaveral Space Force Base.
Pan spent three days using his drone to capture images of a submarine wharf, space launch pads, munition depots, and the classified area where payloads are prepared for space.
Federal prosecutors charged him with three counts of unlawful photographs of a military installation.
A growing number of Chinese spies have been arrested for conducting espionage operations in the United States.
Civilian drones have made conducting surveillance of military bases far easier for potential spies.
House report finds Chinese espionage operations on the rise
More than 175,000 illegal aliens from China entered the country under former President Joe Biden.
A report by the House Homeland Security Committee found that there were more than 60 cases of reported espionage connected to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) between January 2021, when Biden took office, and February 2025.
The Justice Department has brought charges against alleged Chinese spies in 20 states, including Florida.
Chinese spies have tried to steal classified military secrets, conduct surveillance on military bases, and steal trade secrets and intellectual property from American businesses.
Justice Department officials open a case to counter Chinese espionage on an average of every 12 hours.
Chinese nationals have also targeted critics of the CCP in the United States.
House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) warned that the Chinese were able to take advantage of the last four years under Biden.
“The PRC [People’s Republic of China] has gained significant ground in its information warfare on American soil over the past four years,” Green stated. “If you think the U.S. military and our government are the only targets of the Chinese Communist Party, think again.”
“The shadow of Beijing’s malign influence falls upon American businesses, university campuses, and the critical infrastructure we rely on – not to mention those on U.S. soil who dare to speak out against the CCP,” Green added. “Thankfully, the Trump administration has put Beijing on notice; the days of freely undermining our sovereignty are over.”
The media likes to portray illegal aliens as honest people who want to do the jobs that Americans will not do.
China was able to capitalize on the open border and Biden’s refusal to enforce immigration law for espionage.
