Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser’s administration is partnered with the Chinese Communist Party-funded Confucius Institutes, allowing party propaganda to infiltrate district’s public schools and federal buildings, The National Pulse can reveal.
Bowser, who recently made headlines for renaming a street adjacent to the White House “Black Lives Matter Plaza,” has been a partner of Confucius Institutes since at least 2019.
An annual report from the Chinese, communist-run Confucius Institute U.S. Center (CIUSC) identified both Bowser’s office and D.C. public schools as partners of the organization:
The report boasts of the collaboration with the D.C. Mayor, which included a “cultural” event at the federally-owned Ronald Reagan Building, which sits between the White House and the Trump International Hotel (Old Post Office) in the nation’s capital.
The Ronald Reagan Building is the home to a number of federal government tenants, including USAID, the U.S. Department of Commerce, Customs and Border Patrol, the Environmental Protection Agency, and more.
Nevertheless, Mayor Bowser worked with the Chinese Communist-run group to gain access to the building for “hundreds of community members,” as stated in the aforementioned annual report:
“In November we joined the DC Mayor’s Office, regional Confucius Institutes and other Chinese cultural organizations to host a cultural festival in celebration of the 35th Anniversary of the DC -Beijing Sister City relationship. Hundreds of community members joined in cultural activities and demonstrations at the Ronald Reagan Building and our office provided educational programming for 100 DC Public School students who also attended. We are grateful to have worked with the District’s leadership in coordinating this successful community event.”
The programs, bankrolled by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), masquerade as language learning initiatives, but are on the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) radar for intellectual property theft and espionage.
