No Evidence NYT Journalist is a Communist Spy

New York Times journalist Katie Benner recently posted a series of now deleted tweets regarding the January 6 Select Committee. These tweets highlighted the difficulty of the government combating a national security threat without violating its policy of not working against a political figure, political party, or the political party’s supporters. Specifically, she emphasized that the January 6 Select Committee must now call a politician’s supporters, “enemies of the state.” 

Soon, a number of users on social media had declared that Benner was actually an operative of the Chinese Communist Party. These posts have since gained hundreds or even thousands of interactions.
