Chinese Government Harassment and Violence in San Francisco

In San Francisco, the Chinese government harassed and silenced protesters, particularly during Xi Jinping's visit in November. Investigations revealed violent confrontations between pro-Beijing demonstrators and anti-CCP protesters, with the most severe aggression originating from organized pro-CCP groups. These groups received financial support from the Chinese consulate in Los Angeles, which covered their hotel and meal expenses to encourage participation. This situation illustrates the CCP's readiness to impose its intolerance of dissent beyond its borders into American cities. The FBI is currently investigating the incidents of violence that took place.
