Last Thursday, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) brought the hammer down on the Chinese Communist Party’s prime instrument for its digital imperialism, the telecommunications conglomerate Huawei. The company and four of its subsidiaries were charged with such crimes as racketeering, the theft of intellectual property, and violating U.S. sanctions on Iran and North Korea.

The indictment paints a familiar picture of aggressive illegal Chinese activity, accompanied by fraudulent business dealings, cynical lies, and shameless deception.

Also charged with criminal conduct was the daughter of Huawei’s founder who we’re trying to extradite from Canada.

These welcome actions by one Trump administration agency against the enabler of Communist China’s 5G wireless hegemonism makes all the more ill-advised a recent decision by the Commerce Department to allow the company to have continued access to U.S. technology.

Repeat after me — No way,Huawei.
