Chinese diplomats and pro-China diaspora groups orchestrated a campaign of harassment against protesters during Xi Jinping's visit to San Francisco, revealing Beijing's attempts to suppress dissent abroad.
The events in San Francisco underscore the Chinese Communist Party's willingness to extend its intolerance of dissent into the United States, undermining free speech rights.
Many leaders of diaspora groups have links to Beijing's United Front Work Department, employing non-state actors to advance China's political agenda, further blurring civil and state lines.
This six-month investigation involved a comprehensive analysis including over 2,000 photos and videos and interviews with over 35 witnesses, highlighting organized efforts to silence critics.
