Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.) is warning about the extensive operations of China’s intelligence agency, the Ministry of State Security (MSS), in the United States, which he said is “far larger” than the CIA.

Mr. Gallagher, who chairs the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), told Fox News on Aug. 4 that many Americans lack awareness of the presence of the MSS.
