Chinese nationals are using the largely unregulated U.S. surrogacy industry, specifically in California, to literally rent the wombs of American women to have babies who are instant U.S. citizens and then take them back to China, a report said.
Clients pay around $200,000 to do the surrogacy process in the U.S., and roughly $70,000 goes to the surrogate, according to the March 21 report by NewsNation.
The Trump Administration is cracking down on the scheme which has been going on for decades.
Parham Zar, owner of the Egg Donor and Surrogacy Institute in Beverly Hills, told NewsNation that at one point 90 percent of their clients were Chinese.
“Many websites offer language options in English and Mandarin or even in Mandarin only; employ doctors, administrators, and case workers who hail from China; and in some instances show two office locations: one in California and one in mainland China,” the report states.

When you bring in migrants, especially in large numbers, they will continue cultural practices from wherever they came from.
It is asinine to ignore this massive reality, which Britain and the West has done for far too long.
The naive tautology that ‘everyone is equal because we are all human’ is the stupid soft part of Western demise.
Criminal, violent tribal, and violent clan infiltrations are the hardcore results, abetted by corrupt politicians and and the wealthy infiltrators who pay them off.
After many decades of reckless migration, including murderers, spies, smugglers and sophisticated infiltrators, the West has all but destroyed itself.
Linda Sun, 42, had convinced Hochul — who served as Cuomo’s lieutenant governor at the time — to film a Lunar New Year video touting China’s New York consulate when she made the shocking comment, according to evidence presented at the ex-Albany aide’s corruption trial.
“She is much more obedient than the governor,” the accused Beijing mole wrote to China consular official Lihua Li in a Jan. 25, 2021, message shown to jurors in Brooklyn federal court.
Linda Sun, who allegedly served as a Chinese agent, once bragged that Kathy Hochul was “much more obedient” than Andrew Cuomo.
“The deputy governor listens to me more than the governor does,” Sun wrote in another text minutes later — punctuated with a sheepish grin emoji — sent to Huang Ping, who headed the consulate office at the time.
UPDATE: In common with almost all Westerners, including many who have spent years in China, Hochul has zero understanding of China and Chinese civilization.
You can see it in her eyes and in Sun’s description of her.
In the 19th and 20th Centuries, China was forced to come to terms with the West. It took them a long time.
In a very similar manner, the West in recent decades is being forced to come to terms with China.
We are doing no better with that than China did 150 years ago.
Like them, we are reacting to a fantasy of China, an enormous illusion.
I highly recommend that Westerners understand that all cultures are susceptible to decades, if not centuries, of confusion and disorientation when dealing with foreign powers they do not understand.
All cultures, including the West.
The West is also doing a terrible job of managing our relations with Russia, Israel, India, the Muslim world and Africa.
For China, it might be a good idea to consult more closely with very intelligent and knowledgeable Japanese.
They have been dealing with China for well over 1,000 years and even still made a major blunder by invading China in 1931.
That was a disaster they are still reeling from today.
Nonetheless, Japanese know more about China than Westerners do, and they know enough about about us to be good informants, while also benefitting from a more secure USA .
For Russia, I like what Trump appears to be doing. He seems to want an alliance with Russia based on real-world economic and political ties.
For China and other regions, I highly recommend not listening too much to academics, foreign policy experts, run-of-the-mill historians or anyone who has a dog in the fight or money on the table.
Trump is much better than most at this game, and this is a major reason I support his presidency.
I doubt Vance, or anyone else in the presidential bullpen right now, has the chops to replace Trump.
I hope there is someone somewhere in power in USA who has the street-smarts to contact and learn from people who genuinely understand the civilizations around the world that we must come to grips with and relate to for our own benefit and theirs.
Fake news, fake history, fake anthropology and fake foreign policy — all have a stupid and deeply naive side as well as a nefarious one.
People like Sun exploit the nefarious side. And she is just one of millions from across the world, Somalis included.
People like Hochul are on the naive side, deer in the headlights.
She is a poster fawn for virtually all Western politicians today. ABN
The University of Michigan is supposed to be the pride of the Midwest.
A 200-year-old college that has been dubbed a ‘Public Ivy,’ the school is steeped in tradition, pride and academic excellence. It is also the home of the Wolverines and the Big House, the largest stadium in America.
Now, the beloved school is increasingly seen as a back door for Beijing – a soft target for Chinese operatives, covert networks and alleged plots involving genetically modified parasites and crop-killing fungi.
And recent arrests show just how deep the rot may run.
On November 5, federal agents charged three Chinese nationals – Xu Bai, 28, Fengfan Zhang, 27, and Zhiyong Zhang, 30 – with conspiring to smuggle biological materials into the US while working at a University of Michigan (U-M) research lab.
They were the newest names in a disturbing string of cases involving Chinese nationals allegedly moving dangerous biological samples through campus labs under the guise of academic research.
According to the DOJ, Bai and Fengfan Zhang allegedly received multiple shipments from China between 2024 and 2025 containing ‘concealed biological materials related to round worms.’ The parasites are known to infect both humans and livestock.
The samples allegedly had ‘genetic modifications,’ according to notes in the suspect packages, and were shipped to them while they worked at U-M’s Shawn Xu laboratory, prosecutors say.
The bombshell report, written by an alliance of active-duty and retired agents who railed against former president Joe Biden‘s DEI policies, described the FBI as ‘a rudderless ship’ and ‘all f**ked up’ under Patel.
Barely six months into the job, Patel has already been mired in controversy over his use of a government jet to visit his country singer girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, and his astonishing decision to assign a SWAT team to protect her.
The damaging new dossier, obtained by the New York Post’s Miranda Devine, detailed an embarrassing tantrum Patel allegedly threw after the assassination of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk.
Patel reportedly flew into Provo, Utah, on September 11, the day after the killing, and refused to ‘disembark from the plane without an FBI raid jacket.’
He did not have his own and was so concerned about the optics that he pulled Salt Lake City FBI field agents from the investigation and ordered them to find him medium-sized outerwear.
They eventually tracked down one he could wear but it belonged to a female agent.
Patel was reportedly fuming when he received the jacket and erupted when he noticed ‘two areas on the upper sleeves did not have Velcro patches attached’, and still refused to step off the plane.
In the trial of Linda Sun, the former aide to New York governors who is accused of acting as a Chinese agent, the court has heard evidence that Sun forged the signature of Gov. Kathy Hochul, had close contact with Chinese consular staff, and purchased luxury items with payouts from China.
The former aide to Hochul and former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo was indicted in 2024 over allegedly using her position to push the agenda of the Chinese Communist Party in return for millions of dollars paid to her husband’s business. Sun has pleaded not guilty.
Sun is on trial in federal court in the Eastern District of New York in the New York City borough of Brooklyn, with former colleagues and coworkers taking the stand to testify.
After almost two weeks of a trial that is expected to run until mid-December, here are some key takeaways so far.
Delegation Invitation Letters Allegedly Forged
Federal prosecutors alleged that Sun put together an official invitation letter to help Chinese officials travel to New York state. Without approval, she allegedly signed then-Lt. Gov. Hochul’s signature on the letter, which was on official letterhead. According to the prosecution, officials from Henan Province, China, used that letter to apply for visas to travel to the United States.
An unsealed federal search-warrant application reveals investigators have zeroed in on a Chinese drug-trafficking network operating out of Dexter, Stetson, Norridgewock & Ripley, Maine.
According to a sealed 50-page affidavit filed March 17, investigators caught their break when Zhao & Li were stopped crossing back into the U.S. from Canada and were forced to hand over their phones.
At the center: 🇨🇳 “Larry” Zhao of Brooklyn 🇨🇳 Wen Hui “Wen” Li of Las Vegas
DEA task-force officers then secured warrants for 4 Maine properties linked to the pair — each showing red flags for commercial-scale illegal cannabis grows: massive power usage, structural mods, and suspicious financial flows.
The affidavit says the operation was fueled by mortgage fraud, shell companies, foreign money transfers & straw buyers. Federal investigators say these sites fit patterns seen in the 270+ Chinese cartel grow houses DHS flagged across Maine.
WeChat messages pulled from Zhao’s phone show him telling partners that Maine operations had “ceased” due to “local police concerns” — matching the lull in cartel activity after public reporting and increased scrutiny.
The Club des Cent (sometimes referred to in intelligence literature as the “Cercle des Cent” or simply “Le Cercle”) is a secretive, invitation-only foreign policy group that has operated since the early Cold War period. It is distinct from the gourmet dining club of the same name in Paris (the actual “Club des Cent” for food critics). The intelligence-related group is often called Le Cercle in French sources or The Pinay Circle in Anglo-American ones, named after its most influential early chairman, former French Prime Minister Antoine Pinay.
Origins and Structure
Founded in the early 1950s by Antoine Pinay and French Prime Minister Jean Violet (a lawyer with close ties to French intelligence, particularly the SDECE – the predecessor of DGSE).
Created as a private, anti-communist forum to coordinate Atlanticist (pro-NATO, pro-US–Europe alliance) foreign policy and intelligence efforts outside official channels.
Membership has always been small, elite, and transnational: senior politicians, intelligence officers, bankers, diplomats, industrialists, and occasionally royalty. Former members or attendees include:
Franz Josef Bach (German diplomat and CDU politician)
Alan Clark (British Conservative MP)
Giulio Andreotti (Italian PM)
Otto von Habsburg
Henry Kissinger (attended at least once)
David Rockefeller
Margaret Thatcher (met with the group)
Senior figures from MI6, CIA, French SDECE/DGSE, German BND, Belgian Sûreté, etc.
Involvement in Covert Operations
Le Cercle has never been an operational intelligence agency, but it functioned as a high-level private intelligence coordination and strategy group. Its documented or strongly alleged involvement includes:
Anti-communist propaganda and psychological warfare
Financed and coordinated anti-Soviet and anti-leftist operations in Europe through linked organizations such as the Interdoc network and the Institut de Politique Internationale.
Funded anti-communist trade union activities and media operations.
Africa and the “Françafrique” network
Jean Violet and other Cercle members were deeply involved in French neocolonial networks in Africa, especially through the Safari Club (a 1970s intelligence alliance between France, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Morocco designed to bypass CIA restrictions after the Church Committee).
Supported interventions in Congo/Zaïre, Chad, and elsewhere.
1980s anti-neutrality campaigns in Europe
Coordinated private funding and strategy against European neutralism and the peace movement (especially in West Germany and the Netherlands). Linked to the creation of front organizations that received covert CIA and MI6 funding.
The “Clockwork Orange”–style operations in the UK
British Cercle members (Julian Amery, Brian Crozier, Nicholas Elliott) were implicated in attempts to destabilize the Labour government of Harold Wilson in the 1970s via smear campaigns involving MI5 and private intelligence networks.
Support for the 1980s Reagan–Thatcher hardline policies
Acted as a back-channel between European conservative circles and the incoming Reagan administration, particularly on intermediate-range nuclear forces (INF) deployments in Europe.
Secrecy and Current Status
The group deliberately avoids publicity. Meetings are held twice a year in different countries, always under heavy security and with no minutes published.
After the end of the Cold War, its focus reportedly shifted toward the Middle East, Islamic terrorism, and later Russia/China.
As of the 2010s–2020s, it is believed to still exist in a much reduced form, sometimes under different informal names, with younger Atlanticist politicians and intelligence veterans.
In summary, the Club des Cent / Le Cercle was one of the most important private covert action networks of the Cold War era – not an official agency, but a place where senior Western intelligence officers, politicians, and financiers could plan and fund operations that official agencies could not or would not touch. Its influence peaked in the 1970s–1980s and has significantly declined since, but its model of private–public coordination continues to fascinate researchers of “deep politics.”
This video is self-described as speculative but presents a very notable, and probably telling, coincidence of ‘intelligence-grade activity’.

One possibility is the planes dropping very low were releasing and picking up drones, possibly used in Kirk’s murder.
Drones make sense to me as their technology is surely far beyond what we know publicly.
A shot from a super-fast mini-drone with a small projectile that explodes a micro-second after impact would account for Kirk’s neck wound not acting like an entry, but an exit, wound. ABN
