China’s Communist Party isn’t just playing chess—they’re playing chess on a global scale, and they’re not even pretending to hide it anymore. Thousands of American kids are being funneled into Chinese-run “summer camps” that masquerade as cultural exchange programs but are actually training grounds for spreading Communist Party propaganda. These aren’t harmless trips to learn Mandarin and practice calligraphy; they’re thinly-veiled attempts to indoctrinate kids and groom them to carry out the CCP’s agenda back home.
The so-called “Root-Seeking Summer Camp” might sound innocent, but a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation reveals it’s anything but. These camps are run by CCP-linked agencies, including the People’s Liberation Army and the Ministry of Public Security. Yes, you read that right: kids as young as 10 are being exposed to military-style training under the watchful eyes of Chinese soldiers. Photos show children in fatigues, marching and saluting, with big smiles as they pose with members of China’s military. Nothing screams “harmless cultural experience” like teaching kids how to stand at parade rest while holding toy mortars.
This summer Chinese kindergarteners are practicing "rifle tactics" and running around playing squad-based skirmish games shooting each other at National Defense Education boot camps that @Dailycaller reported on

Republican Rep. John Moolenaar of Michigan hit the nail on the head, warning that the CCP’s “long arm” is reaching right into America. “We need to protect all those on American soil from the CCP’s authoritarian agenda,” Moolenaar said. He’s absolutely right. The idea that the CCP is grooming “Little Overseas Chinese Police” is terrifying. These kids are being taught loyalty to a foreign government that actively works against American interests—and make no mistake, the CCP knows exactly what it’s doing.
Let’s not forget, this isn’t just about indoctrination; it’s about intelligence gathering. National security expert Brandon Weichert pointed out that these programs aim to create a cadre of CCP sympathizers, whether knowingly or unknowingly. The implicit threat to these kids and their families is chilling: “We’re always watching you,” the CCP seems to be saying. “Why don’t you help us keep tabs on your family while you’re at it?”
And where are the Democrats on this? Silent, as usual. Instead of condemning this blatant infiltration, they’re busy focusing on pronouns and climate alarmism. Their lack of action gives the CCP free rein to exploit our children under the guise of “cultural exchange.”
This isn’t paranoia—it’s reality. The CCP’s “unrestricted warfare” strategy is about infiltrating and weakening America from within. While Republicans like Missouri’s Attorney General Andrew Bailey are taking steps to investigate CCP-linked service centers in the U.S., the left’s obsession with political correctness blinds them to the real threats facing this country.
America needs to wake up. These camps aren’t about building bridges; they’re about building Trojan horses. President-elect Trump’s administration should prioritize rooting out CCP influence in our schools, universities, and cultural programs. It’s time to say “no” to this kind of infiltration and “yes” to protecting our kids and our nation’s sovereignty.
