      XPost: alt.law-enforcement, alt.politics.usa.republican, alt.fan.rush-limbaugh       XPost: talk.politics.guns, sac.politics       From: democrat-insurrection@mail.house.gov              https://nypost.com/2024/07/28/us-news/chinese-communist-linked-group-       marches-in-nyc-for-lawmaker-accused-of-biting-nypd-cop/              Hundreds marched from Manhattan to Brooklyn Sunday in support of a city       councilwoman charged with biting an NYPD deputy chief — with the       organizers linked to the Chinese Communist Party.              The massive march from Foley Square to Cadman Plaza Park backs       Councilwoman Susan Zhuang (D-43), who was busted after allegedly biting       the cop during a frenzied clash at a protest outside the construction site       of a homeless shelter in her district.              “We urge the government to respect our community,” one protester told the       crowd before the march kicked off. “We demand clear and effective       communication, such as when adding a homeless shelter in our community.              “Our community is resilient,” the speaker said. “Support candidates who       will stand for our community.”              Nearly 1,000 demonstrators chanted, “justice for all,” “no more disrespect       for the Asian community” and “the government should listen to the wishes       of the people” as it kicked off in Foley Square.              Several in the crowd held up signs reading, “save our community” and       “equal justice of Susan Zhuang.”              A flyer for the event listed as a contact the number of John Chan — who       heads BRACE — a non-profit group with ties to the United Front. The United       Front is a group of organizations affiliated with the Chinese Communist       Party, whose mandate is to spread communism worldwide.              Chan — also known as Chen Shanzhuang — is a Chinese-born businessman who       also runs the American Chinese Commerce Association.              The Post attempted to contact BRACE and Chan, who did not respond to       request for comment.              Zhuang — who was booked on several charges including assault and resisting       arrest earlier this month — has distanced herself from the organizers of       the rally, saying while she “appreciates the Asian community’s support”       she had “not been part of planning this event.”              “I am not part of BRACE or its leadership. This Democratic movement to       stand up for the rights of the Asian community is the opposite of the       CCP,” she told The Post.              In November, Chan led the charge to deafen the cries of protesters who       claimed their relatives had been wronged by the Chinese government, the       San Francisco Standard reported at the time.              Tensions had flared between dueling protest groups as they awaited Chinese       President Xi Jinping’s arrival in San Francisco ahead of the Asia-Pacific       Economic Cooperation summit.              A month later the Chinese-born businessman sponsored a small group of New       York Republicans, including Assembly Minority Leader Will Barclay (R-       Pulaski), to visit China.              According to the Diplomat, Chan sent open letters to members of Congress       supporting Beijing’s crackdown on Falun Gong and hosting of the 2008       Olympics.              And to mark 50 years of Chinese communism organized to have the party’s       banner flown in Trenton, New Jersey in 1999 and then again a year later in       Flushing, Queens.              While Zhuang has tried to keep Chan at arm’s length — just days before her       arrest it was revealed that the councilwoman’s office had tried to solicit       donations for BRACE in February.              The incident was first reported by the Daily News, which cited detailed       emails sent from official city email accounts.              The emails since obtained by The Post invited supporters and constituents       to a February Lantern Festival Parade in Sunset Park — which was attended       by several elected officials including Mayor Eric Adams.              “Additionally, we would like to extend an invitation for you to join as a       sponsor for the event,” the email continued.              Zhuang’s office was also contacted for comment about the emails but did       not immediately respond.              She defended her actions during the earlier arrest, saying she was coming       to the aid of one protester.              “Susan Zhuang was a victim that day, she was trying to protect a senior       citizen, she was trying to protect you all,” a speaker told demonstrators       at the Brooklyn end of Sunday’s march.              “All of us are here to protect Susan Zhuang,” they said. “We are all       protecting the American dream.”                     --       We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that       stupid people won't be offended.              Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem. It has none.              No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.       Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.              Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden       fiasco, President Trump.              Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the       The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed       dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
