The CCP sought to promote pro-China politicians and influence U.S. policies in 2022. How will this affect our elections in 2024?
From The Epoch Times. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) attempted to meddle in the 2022 U.S. midterm elections, aiming to undermine certain candidates viewed as “anti-China” and to promote others deemed to be “pro-China,” according to a new report from the U.S. intelligence community.
Join the conversation on The Community.
“China tacitly approved efforts to try to influence a handful of midterm races involving members of both U.S. political parties,” the intelligence agencies said in their assessment, published by the National Intelligence Council on Dec. 18, emphasizing that they came to such a conclusion with “high confidence.”
The report, with substantial portions redacted, didn’t say which midterm races the CCP had targeted. In one case, China “covertly [denigrated]” an unnamed Senate candidate online using “inauthentic accounts.” The report was released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI).
The latest report sheds more light on communist China’s long game to infiltrate U.S. politics at every level. FBI Director Christopher Wray said in 2022 that Beijing’s desire to influence U.S. politics rested on its quest to achieve economic and political domination.
Since 2020, senior CCP leaders have issued “broad directives to intensify efforts” to influence U.S. policies and public opinion in China’s favor, according to the report. …
The CCP had also repeatedly ordered its officials to focus their influence operations on Congress, convinced that the U.S. legislative branch “is a locus of anti-China activity.” …
The CCP influence operations—designed to “portray the U.S. democratic model as chaotic, ineffective, and unrepresentative”—frequently directed messaging to “highlight U.S. division on social issues, such as abortion and gun control,” according to the report. …
Foreign Actors
The DNI report also states that China didn’t order a “comprehensive campaign” to influence the midterm races in favor of a political party, wary of the risks if its efforts were exposed.
Nonetheless, the intelligence agencies discovered that Chinese cyber actors had “scanned more than 100 U.S. state and national political party domains.” …
“We assess that most foreign actors now appear largely focused on amplifying authentic U.S. public narratives to try to influence electoral outcomes, increase mistrust in U.S. election processes, and stoke sociopolitical divisions,” the report reads. …
Our elections are under attack from every angle, both at home and abroad. As we move into a major election year, share this article to encourage others to pray for fair and free elections!

Please Lord God Almighty 🙏, bring us American protection from Communist evil influences from China! This most importantly is focused on Presidential votes.
regarding a quote from the article: “Our elections are under attack from every angle, both at home and abroad. ”
even worse, is the possibility that they could be one team not two.distinct entities.
Father protect our nation from.communism within, abroad, and those that team together. Expose and expel any traitor politicians who are “serving” our nation in total hypocrisy. Thank you for hearing and answering our prayers.
I had a word from the Lord about the 2020 election. I will not reveal full details and real names but just parts.
I kept seeing 2 colors of twisted cords.
I ask Holy Spirit about it.
He spoke something to me.I replied that is public knowledge.
He replied but it not public knowledge that John Doe and Joe Doe manipulated the voting programs.(not real names)
When I was convinced I must share with someone that could get it to President Trump I began to think about the correct spelling of second name. As I was thinking Holy Spirit spoke a profession to me. Which had nothing to do with the word.( I thought). When I entered the name of the profession the second name came up as a prize winner in that profession. As well as in the district and state of the first name. I knew for sure it was Holy Spirit speaking to me. The odds of that happening is greater than winning the Lottery.
I do not know if anyone ever told President Trump. I keep watching the news for this truth to be exposed. I believe it will be one day soon. Please Lord before the next election.
Father we lift this nation to You! We know that unless some voting issues aren’t corrected the enemy will win. Please help us reverse the evil that is running this world or we eagerly await the sound of the trumpet calling Your people home. In Jesus name amen
Father, we ask that you would protect our elections against China and other nations that would seek to gain power through some politicians. I pray for godly people to be voted into office this next year. May we be faithful to pray and act in ways we can to help the people of your choosing to be elected.
Meddling in another country’s politics is nothing new. We did it during the Cold War through radio broadcasts. The reason it has become so scary is that people believe random postings by people they know nothing about and that news sources, and I include conservative news sources in this, have lost hold of their responsibilities. (IFA please take note.) Any news source should not be posting the opinion of some random individual or any information without checking the person or information out, and checking out what other professionals are saying about the information. Getting the counter viewpoint is becoming increasingly important. Unfortunately, this is not happening, and this is only going to get worse because AI technology can make any person say anything.
Surely it has been standard practice for the US to interfere in foreign elections – that was what the CIA did.
FATHER, wake up Rino’s and DNC to this evil. Stop CCP, Iran, Iraq, Ukraine, Poland, ETC with cyber attacks as in 2020 election. Secure our elections with paper ballots.
*** 1 person 1 vote ***
NO FRAUD
IN YESHUA’S HOLY NAME AMEN AMEN
