Katie Benner sounds like an American girl next door right? Alas, a little digging below the surface reveals something rather specific about the New York Times journalist.
Ms. Katie Benner made headlines yesterday by tweeting: “Today’s #January6thSelectCommittee underscores the America’s current, essential natsec dilemma: Work to combat legitimate national security threats now entails calling a politician’s supporters enemies of the state,” the previously little-known Benner wrote.
Perhaps the purposeful avatar knocked people off the trail. Yes, the statement is jaw-dropping from a New York Times journalist who is openly calling Trump supporters “enemies of the state,” a tweet she soon deleted once the sunlight poured in.
Perhaps her NYT editors influenced the decision to delete the comments; or, well, perhaps the real people behind Ms. Benner noted she had gone a little too far – this time.
As it turns out, Ms. Benner is not quite what she appears…. not even close.
Katie Benner (pictured left) used to write freelance for the Beijing Review, China’s only National news magazine in English, published by the Chinese Communist Party-owned China International Publishing Group.
Benner joined the New York Times in 2015 after her initial work at the communist propaganda outlet. {NYT CITATION}
NEW YORK TIMES – […] “Katie Benner of Bloomberg joining The Times as a technology reporter. She’s covered Wall Street and Silicon Valley. She’s been a magazine writer and a columnist. Early in her career she wrote for Beijing Review, and since last fall, she has been based in San Francisco for Bloomberg View. (2015, link)
The CCP-controlled Beijing Review was designated by the U.S. State Department in 2020 as a “foreign mission” of China {Citation}. Emphasis mine:
STATE DEPT ARCHIVE – […] “Pursuant to authorities under the Foreign Missions Act, the State Department is issuing today a new determination that designates the U.S. operations of Yicai Global, Jiefang Daily, Xinmin Evening News, Social Sciences in China Press, Beijing Review, and Economic Daily as foreign missions. These six entities all meet the definition of a foreign mission under the Foreign Missions Act in that they are “substantially owned or effectively controlled” by a foreign government. In this case, they are effectively controlled by the government of the People’s Republic of China”. (link)
So Ms. Benner was an operative, an embed, of the Chinese Communist Party propaganda machine. As the New York Times noted when they hired her: “When she lived in Beijing, she wrote about “everything from monks to music,” she says“; that point underscores that Ms. Benner was a young adult, pursuing a journalist career, living in communist China.
Departing Beijing and landing in San Francisco (fall of 2014), Katie Benner embedded into MSM via Bloomberg as a technology reporter. Then, she jumped over to the New York Times (June 2015), again focusing on the Tech sector…. and then for some unknown reason, the tech expertise was dropped, and she took on a new role reporting on U.S. Department of Justice issues. {Insert Suspicious Cat Here}….
The most recent article she wrote about, July 24th, just coincidentally happens to focus on the Joe Biden administration dropping charges against Chinese “researchers” (ie. spies) operating in the U.S. and hiding their connections to the Chinese military. Huh, go figure:
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department moved this week to drop cases that it brought last year against five visiting researchers accused of hiding their ties to China’s military, prompting questions about the department’s efforts to combat Chinese national security threats. (link)
Let me go out on a short-limb here, and say Ms. Benner is likely using her contacts within the DOJ to evaluate the risk to other Chinese agents distributed throughout the United States, and then she reports that risk back to her real handlers in Beijing.
SUMMARY – Ms. Katie Benner appears to be a Chinese Communist Party operative who worked through the U.S. media system as a journalist, eventually into the New York Times, weaving her way through the organization to a place where she focuses on national security issues within the DOJ…. and then, unfortunately for her CCP handlers, Ms. Benner triggered her CCP tradecraft motivation a little too openly on Twitter and did not clear the blast zone.
Katie Benner fake American name for Fang Fang.
Perhaps the moment has arrived to consider adding another name to the list of potential controllers assigned to monitor/manage aspects of Peter Strzok/the Counter Intelligence Section & various operations directed through that nexus.
Kind of appears that Communists have infiltrated every information outlet in the United States. Is it possible that the Communists are making their play to bring down our Country? Imagine that.
Still plagued with CCCP residue and red diapers, now CCP assault is well financed and infiltrated.
I cannot imagine a more devastating blow to the Chinese economy than the destruction of the economy of their largest customer. As many have said recently – what they’re doing is readily apparent. Why they’re doing it is not.
They don’t care a whit about their own people (see Hong Kong) or even their economy if their power is in danger of being lost. President Trump was taking their economy and their power down with tariffs, so they got rid of him with covid leading to a stolen election. The CCP and the deep state’s POWER was threatened. That is why the CCP and the uniparty can’t let we Patriots get the routers and voting machines.
Sorry to say, but they admittedly want to ‘own’ the U.S.A. They want control of the whole world so far as that goes, and they will use any means they can to get what they want.
So tired of this crap! More so for anybody not doing anything!
Ad Rem – why was Bowdoin College removed from this article? It was in the first version but when I went to reread it, it was gone.
That has happened to me recently also. I just had to blame myself for it, but does make me wonder.
I don’t think it is us. I think someone changed the original post. The question is why – why did this post now leave out Vermont and Bowdoin. Sundance needs to explain so we understand.
The CCP has infiltrated every institution in America….and it looks like they are being welcomed in with open arms.
It’s apparent now that just about every politician, political party, corporation, and medical community is owned by the Communist Party of China. Bought and paid for by China.
This can’t end well for any of us.
Oh really? Little Miss Chinese propaganda. I guess that explains the Pokémon hat.
“As an American, we believe…”
Monty Python-esque…
So now we have full-blooded commies calling red-blooded Americans “Enemies of the state”. I’ll bet to most commies, freedom-loving Americans terrorize them. And we all know who from America are bought and paid for the CCP… just about everyone in the Democrat Party.
McConnell, sadly also is owned by the CCP.
American Greatness has an article on this story about a “NYT Reporter” sans a single word about her nationality or origin.
Weak.
Or worse?
Any questions.
Well ya, just a few.
Why would we believe that original tweet, the one that was taken down, a mistake? One is able to think of several good scenarios in which that tweet would be featured prominently, especially by calling more attention to it it by the very act of deleting it?
The RINOs must be fit to be tied being associated with so many who are openly hostile to the CCP.
How long before the RINOs begin loudly denouncing their base – us Non-Essential Chump Neanderthal Deplorables – and begin openly campaigning for more CCP campaign
bribesuntraceable-cashfortifications?There are a few more questions but it’s late. More for another time perhaps.
Excuse me for being obtuse but I think there are few Republicans in Congress who are not pro-CCP. If they vote like Democrats, spend money like Democrats, cave to the Democrats, & generally stand silent to crime, illegal immigration, don’t condemn violence & side with everything Fauci says, they are Democrats. And their silence on China is overwhelming.
Democrat = Communist
They are no longer just feckless. They are contributing to the final collapse of the country, IMHAO.
P.S. Neither McCarthy nor McConnell care about what happened on 1/6 or Pelosi & Schumer’s role in the “insurrection” because they don’t want THEIR OWN roles in NOT GETTING MORE SECURITY AT THE CAPITAL EXPOSED.
This was a set-up of Trump supporters & Pres. Trump.
I don’t think I’ve truly encountered a “mistaken” tweet like, ever. Weasels.
Bribes and more preprinted ballots.
“These based immigrants won’t support the dem agenda!”
Is Benner even her real name?
Born in Beijing
Red diaper baby? Or Chinese commie plant
Cannot find any edeails about her parents, husband etc
Probably she married a silicon valley Soy Boy.
Like Mark Zuckabigguns wife ….
So how did she come to be renamed “Katie Benner?” It seems completely obvious from the tweet that she’s a Chinese operative.
I don’t have an Asian bias. But if people who write for the MSM refuse to face reality, our “journalists” are ALL puppets for the CCP, as are ALL members of the House & Senate, including each & everyone of our “Republicans”, except for a couple of women with balls from Georgia & Colorado.
Roy Chip got in an uproar today because Pelosi reinstituted masks in the House when millions are pouring across the border without check & spreading the virus. Gee, does anyone think that the CCP is not ROTFLTAO??? Their release of the virus on the WORLD is ALL to gain world control by crippling tge only country who could have contained them.
The CCP does have the balls to string up Big Tech & globalist elites by their gonads when they get the chance. I can only hope they start with the likes of GS, Zuck, Dorsey, Hildebeast, Pelosi, etc.,
“Katie”, I’m sure will be amply rewarded for her prose.
From what I could find on the web, Benner lives with her husband but her family is in China. It made it sound like she wasn’t born here, so how did she get a green card? She has been living and working here for years. If our government were loyal to the American people they would be spying on her and not Carlson.
I think I’ve noted that a lot of the avatars used on twitter and elsewhere for people chastising others for either mask wear or vaccine status and generally demanding punishments for them have been some sort of asian. That is they have the epicanthic fold that is pretty much an indicator of asian people amongst their ancestors.
Not a huge number but more than I’ve noted before. Interestingly they’ve gotten exactly what you note here; a suspicion that they are shills/spies for China and for them to go and work in their own country. This does assume they’re not American born and that’s a big assumption. However we should be aware more of who and where these opinions are coming from and why.
She blew her cover when she wrote, “We Americans…” Got a mouse in your pocket, Fang Fang Jr.?
Is there any relevant info on Mr. Bennet?
Good job Sundance.
A true patriot – for China.
I’ll take the hat tip if you can offer it. https://gettr.com/post/p5ykmx
She doesn’t have a Chinese surname. Fake names.
Commie Twat
communists don’t really have to “infiltrate” the US anymore–they are open, proud, loud, and in power. They go by many different names; Democrat, Progressive, Socialist, Republican, etc, but they are enacting their agenda with little pushback.
Remember her name.
Once the interloper is gone and Congress is back in the control of American loving congressmen and women it is my hope that a house cleaning is undertaken and the CCP spies amongst us are sent back to their workers paradise known as China.
I surely hope we all accept the moniker “enemy of the state” and treat it with the deadly seriousness that it deserves.
What is a nutsack conspiracy?
It makes me think of that fanatical so-called “doctor” who was head of the Planned Parenthood which actually means the opposite of its label. This Chinese doctor oversaw the wholesale slaughter of American babies. What better job for a CCP operative. Then, she goes on CNN (Communist News Network) and rails against the American People.
Doesn’t Dr. FauXi also answer to his handler Xi? He was funneling millions of dollars through conduits to create a bio-weapon to be used on us. Please don’t tell me that maniacal villain didn’t know. He knew in 2017 that a “surprise” epidemic would hit us. How do you know about a surprise pandemic unless it is planned?
The American People have awoken to the Bolshevik fraud perpetuated against them.
We are resolved to never surrender and will take our country back!
Live free or die.
Not enough have actually awoken yet. Most will never wake to the fraud.
Katie Benner? Another liar. Another one of…”The people animating the corpse of Joe Biden…” https://www.takimag.com/article/superspreading-lies/
New York Crimes
Isn’t it amazing that the “science” about Covid fundamentally changes as one walks across the Rotunda/ On the House side, a US citizen can be arrested, while on the Senate side, a citizens is free as a bird.
I hope she is on the front line when we finally rise up against the CCPDemocrats.
Those 5 researchers probably came to buy some paintings from Hunter.
What we need in this country, are people dedicated to the principles of our founding fathers , not the ideological, socialist aspirations of those who would like to over throw the American way of life and all that we have gained in the last 200 years. We are fighting many enemies at this moment, The CCP, the coyotes, illegal immigrants, blocks of criminal nests, the BLM, poverty, the destruction of towns, cities and states caused by roving bands of looters, homeless people and open borders. All of this and more as we continue to clothe, feed, house and distribute our wealth to people we don’t even know, who haven’t been investigated or tested for the virus . This is completely unacceptable and if you want to ram it down our throats we will come together to save America no matter what it takes. There will be an unknown event that will galvanize and unite the nations patriotic forces, it won’t be pretty. People like Katie Benner will become a target, not a symbol of hope, or a rallying point.
