The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is reportedly refusing to commit to closing its consulate in Houston tomorrow after the United States ordered it to close because it was allegedly involved in criminal activity against Americans.

“The head of the Chinese Consulate in Houston won’t commit to closing the office — a direct threat of defiance to the State Department’s demand that it be shut down by Friday,” Politico reported. “Cai Wei, the Chinese Consul General in Houston, said China is protesting the closure order and his office will remain open ‘until further notice.'”
