But it doesn’t stop there. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has now successfully penetrated one of the most critical institutions overseeing the U.S. economy—the Federal Reserve. The recent Federal Reserve spy case is nothing short of historic and further proves the depth of China’s strategic espionage efforts.
Ed Martin, a fierce advocate for January 6 detainees and a vocal critic of government overreach, has taken on a new role as acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia. This office, infamous for its aggressive pursuit of January 6 defendants, now finds itself at the forefront of a high-stakes espionage case.
Since stepping into his position, Martin has been relentless—firing nearly two dozen corrupt prosecutors, putting officials on notice for their involvement in USAID’s money-laundering schemes, and now, exposing a spy within the Federal Reserve.
The man at the center of this explosive case is John Harold Rogers, a 63-year-old former Senior Adviser at the Federal Reserve Board of Governors (FRB). Rogers, who resided in Vienna, Virginia, has been arrested on charges of conspiring to steal Federal Reserve trade secrets for China. His betrayal is a massive breach of national security, shaking confidence in the Federal Reserve’s integrity.
The Federal Reserve plays a crucial role in maintaining America’s financial stability. Yet, Rogers, entrusted with sensitive economic data, reportedly fed classified information to Chinese operatives. These spies, posing as graduate students from a Chinese university, were in fact embedded within China’s intelligence and security network.
With Rogers acting as a conduit, the Chinese government gained an unprecedented advantage, receiving advanced economic data that allowed them to manipulate financial markets. This was essentially insider trading at the highest level—except it wasn’t just about making money; it was about economic warfare.
The indictment reveals disturbing details:
- Rogers, a U.S. citizen with a Ph.D. in Economics, worked at the FRB from 2010 to 2021, where he had access to confidential economic reports.
- Beginning in 2018, he allegedly funneled sensitive information, including proprietary economic data, tariff deliberations, and Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) briefings, to Chinese intelligence operatives.
- He transferred this classified information to his personal email and printed documents before traveling to China, where he held covert meetings in hotel rooms.
- Posing as a professor, Rogers collected a hefty paycheck—approximately $450,000 in 2023—from a Chinese university, a front for his espionage activities.
Rogers’ involvement appears to be linked to the “Thousand Talents” program, a Chinese initiative designed to recruit top experts under the guise of academic collaboration. While many assume these are mere research partnerships, the reality is far more sinister—these individuals are feeding China’s intelligence apparatus with high-value information.
If the Federal Reserve was compromised, what other critical U.S. institutions might be at risk? The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Patent and Trademark Office, and USAID could all be prime targets for similar infiltration. China has already proven it can penetrate deep into the American system. What’s next?
Just Released: Trump White House Collector’s Bobblehead!
Despite these clear threats, the Biden administration dismantled the DOJ/FBI task force investigating China’s malign influence operations, labeling it “racist.” This reckless decision opened the floodgates for further Chinese espionage, erasing much of the progress made during President Trump’s first term.
Under Trump, efforts were underway to shut down the Thousand Talents Program, Chinese police stations operating on U.S. soil, the fentanyl crisis fueled by Chinese suppliers, and the infiltration of Chinese special operatives. However, Biden’s staffers quickly reversed course, allowing these threats to regain momentum.
With Trump back in the political arena and Ed Martin leading the charge at the DOJ, there is renewed hope for a crackdown on Chinese espionage. But the damage has been done—America’s institutions have been infiltrated, and national security is at stake.
The question now is: Will the Biden administration continue to turn a blind eye, or will the U.S. finally take a stand against China’s relentless espionage campaign?
