        "United States law enforcement officials will announce actions on Monday targeting alleged criminal activity by a nation-state.

        "Attorney General Merrick Garland is set to hold a news conference Monday afternoon centered around U.S. action targeting "malign influence schemes and alleged criminal activity" by a "nation-state actor," the Department of Justice said, according to a Reuters report.

        "The Department of Justice didn't provide any additional details about the case, including which country or entity is being targeted.

        "Garland will discuss "significant national security cases addressing malign influence schemes and alleged criminal activity by a nation-state actor in the United States" with deputy attorney general Lisa Monaco and assistant attorney general for national security Matthew Olsen, as well as with FBI director Christopher Wray at 1:30 p.m. ET."

                            This seems like very small potatoes stuff. I sniff a justice department marketing gimmick behind this public display.

                                The words “TeamAmerica” cannot be put together without the concluding “FUCK YEAH”!

                                      Could be. It does seem like we are playing a bit more hardball with them. I'm all for that, and I hope they can pull it off successfully.

                                        Seven People’s Republic of China individuals have been charged in the Eastern District of New York — two of them were arrested on Oct. 20 — with participating in a scheme to force a U.S. resident to return to China. Two Chinese individuals were charged in the same district with attempting to obstruct the criminal prosecution of a China-based telecommunications company, and four Chinese nationals have been charged in the District of New Jersey with conspiring to act as illegal agents on behalf of China.

                                        “As these cases demonstrate, the government of China sought to interfere with the rights and freedoms of individuals in the United States and to undermine our judicial system that protects those rights. They did not succeed,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said at a news conference on Monday afternoon.
