July 1, 2025

HULL, IOWA – Today, U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) issued the following statement commending President Trump and FBI Director Kash Patel for arresting two Chinese nationals found spying on U.S. Navy servicemembers and bases:

“I commend the Trump administration for arresting two Chinese nationals with ties to the Chinese Communist Party who were spying on U.S. Navy servicemembers and bases. From buying up our farmland to deploying spy balloons in our sovereign airspace, the Chinese Communist Party is no friend of the United States. We will not tolerate foreign espionage that threatens our troops and undermines our national security.”
