- A building on North Eustis Street in St. Paul houses a Chinese Communist Party operation linked to local political activities.

In Minnesota, a secret operation linked to the Chinese Communist Party has been uncovered, centered in a brutalist brick building located on North Eustis Street in St. Paul. This facility facilitates various activities that undermine U.S. interests, including political influence with local officials and organizing meetings between Chinese Americans loyal to Beijing and CCP representatives. Dr. Bingwen Yan heads the Overseas Chinese Service Center of Minnesota, which is reportedly a front for the CCP’s United Front Work Department and has ties to significant political figures, such as Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. Connections indicate that this operation extends beyond mere community services, engaging in coordinated efforts aligned with CCP objectives and engaging with Chinese intelligence services.
