Surge Summary: Release of an intelligence community report mandated by the President is being delayed over reported disagreements over foreign interference in the just concluded election. How much – if at all – did China insert itself? Government officials have sounded the alarm over China’s threat to U.S. security for some time now.

The intelligence community is supposed to release a report [Friday] regarding the extent of foreign interference in the 2020 elections.  This report was mandated by a 2018 executive order issued by President Trump.  But the report isn’t coming anytime soon.

The office of the director of national intelligence unexpectedly announced late [Wednesday] that it would not be releasing the required report on time.  According to various sources, there is a split within the intelligence community regarding whether communist China interfered in the election.

Translation:  There are intelligence analysts who believe China interfered in the election and there are others who don’t.  But why is the intelligence community divided?

In July, Bill Evanina, the director of the National Counterintelligence and Security Center, warned that communist China was “expanding its attempt to influence the General Election and shape U.S. policy.”

In August, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said, “China poses a greater national security threat to the U.S. than any other nation . . . That includes threats of election influence and interference.”

In September, Attorney General William Barr told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that China was being the “most aggressive” and “most assertive” in attempting to influence the 2020 election.  Blitzer was shocked and pressed Barr to explain why he believed that.  Barr answered, “Because I’ve seen the intelligence.”

CBS News reports that Ratcliffe confirms that China, Iran and Russia did interfere in the election.

Many insiders say that communist China did not want Donald Trump to win reelection because Beijing found him “unpredictable.”

Translation:  Communist China was used to having presidents from both parties willing to deceive themselves or worse in order to accommodate the communist Chinese.

Last week we reported to you about a Chinese academic leader who bragged that China had great friends and allies on Wall Street and in Washington for decades.  Then Donald Trump came along and suddenly China couldn’t get what it wanted.

Trump is very predictable in always wanting to put America first.  But China prefers having American presidents who usually put communist China first.

That same Chinese academic was pleased that Biden had seemingly prevailed in the election, and he bragged about communist China’s influence with Hunter Biden.

This may be one of the most dangerous periods in American history.  Every day we are learning more about the extent to which the Biden family has been compromised by financial interests controlled by the communist Chinese military and the Chinese Communist Party.
