Groups like Code Pink have been a thorn in the sides of sensible people for quite a few years now. They are anti-American, anti-liberty, and, from the nature of their protests and hysterical outbursts in Congressional hearings, anti-peace and quiet.
We tend to ignore them, but they aren't going away. A New York Post exclusive published Wednesday tells us why: They are in cahoots with China.
The State Department transmitted a report to Congress Tuesday linking lefty nonprofits Code Pink and the People’s Forum to Chinese influence operations.
“Partisan hacks spent years peddling the phony Russia collusion hoax while turning a blind eye to the sprawling web of far-left activist organizations who push the agendas of the Chinese Communist Party,” Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy Sarah Rogers said in a statement provided to The Post.
“Organizations like Code Pink and the People’s Forum denigrate the United States, whitewash the violence of Marxist regimes, and run cover for China while enjoying an influx of cash from a donor network with connections to the Chinese Communist Party,” Rogers added.
“The State Department will pursue complete transparency for the donor and NGO networks that lobby for our adversaries and seek to weaken the resolve of the United States.”
Of course, they do, and they would do it regardless of whether China was helping them or not. But China's influence over these people is nefarious, especially when you consider that the Chinese Communist Party has infiltrated an unknown (but probably significant) number of operatives into the United States across the southern border during the four years of Biden-era non-enforcement. There are tens of thousands of these people here, and the Department of Homeland Security, in 2025, reported more than 60 cases of espionage by the Chinese Communist Party in the United States.
As many as 24,000 are known to have entered the USA. Where are those people now? We can presume they are in touch with Code Pink, who are nitwits, and Antifa, who have the potential to be dangerous.

Here's the onion:
Code Pink, founded as an anti-war organization in 2002, has accused the US of launching a “war on China.”
The nonprofit peddles its pro-China talking points through its “China Is Not Our Enemy” working group, according to the State Department.
Code Pink encourages Americans to travel to China and solicits contact information of individuals interested in visiting the US adversary.
The group touts one such trip where participants “studied revolutionary history in Ruijin” and explored “villages transformed by poverty alleviation programs” on its website.
So, tour groups to China? The useful idiots from Code Pink who went to China were probably taken around to one of that country's notorious Potemkin Villages. They are, after all, pre-programmed to believe anything a communist tells them; they have bought the ideology.
Code Pink is the face here, but the dark shadow lurking behind them is and has been China. We should be glad that Marco Rubio's State Department is recognizing this; it's unclear what steps can be taken to arrest it. China would, in any case, just sink its tentacles into yet another left-wing gang of kooks. And if there's one thing that the United States seems to have a surfeit of at the moment, it's left-wing kooks.
The real question raised here is this: Who else, here in the United States, does China have its hooks into?
