Biden’s Weaponized DOJ Crushed Texas Developer Who Blew Whistle on CCP Land Grab Scheme

In a saga that reads more like a political thriller than a real estate dispute, Texas businessman Timothy Barton is at the center of a high-stakes legal storm that some allege is less about justice and more about silencing dissent.

Timothy Barton—a Christian businessman, proud Trump supporter, and founder of the successful JMJ Development—has, in yet another glaring example of Biden-era political persecution, become the latest target of lawfare by a weaponized federal government more interested in shielding the Chinese Communist Party than protecting American citizens.

Barton’s “crime”? Sounding the alarm on what he believed to be a covert Chinese land acquisition scheme on U.S. soil.

Back in 2019, Barton was approached by a Chinese national named Haoqiang “Michael” Fu and his associate Steven Wall. They pitched him on partnering in high-value real estate developments across Texas. At first glance, it looked like a lucrative venture. But the deeper Barton got involved, the clearer the red flags became. Fu and Wall repeatedly failed to provide promised funding, while Barton was forced to keep the project afloat—personally.

Worse still, Barton discovered what he described as blatant financial fraud, including altered co-lender documents redirecting repayments straight to Fu. Convinced that the deal was a front for something far more dangerous—a CCP-backed scheme to influence and infiltrate American real estate — Barton did what any patriot would do: he reported the activity to Homeland Security.

But in Joe Biden’s America, doing the right thing gets you punished.

When the Trump administration left office and Biden’s handlers seized power, the DOJ and SEC pivoted hard. Instead of investigating Fu’s shady dealings or holding China accountable, the feds turned their full weight against Barton. They slapped him with baseless charges, raided his home at dawn like he was a cartel boss, and seized nearly every asset he owned—all before he ever stepped foot in a courtroom.

There was no trial. No jury. No victims ever identified. Just a man crushed by an out-of-control federal machine determined to make an example out of a Trump donor who dared to expose China’s growing influence inside our borders.

Even Barton’s assistant, a woman with no criminal record, was dragged into this charade — arrested on Christmas Eve in a cold, calculated move that felt more like revenge than justice.

And that was just the beginning.

Under Judge Brantley Starr—a figure now infamous in Texas legal circles—Barton’s fate was handed over to a court-appointed receiver, Cort Thomas. From day one, Thomas acted like a demolition crew with a legal license. He gutted Barton’s decades-old business empire, liquidated assets, froze family bank accounts, and dragged Barton’s children and ex-wife into court.

Thomas’s attorney, Charlene Koonce—whose own writings include “Weapons of a Receivership”—filed a barrage of lawsuits with zero evidence, targeting everyone in Barton’s orbit. Some of those lawsuits have since been quietly withdrawn. But the damage was done.

This isn’t oversight. It’s overreach. It’s lawfare. And it’s political.

Let’s be clear: this never would’ve happened if Barton weren’t a public Trump supporter who blew the whistle on a scheme tied to America’s greatest geopolitical enemy. In today’s twisted justice system, that’s enough to make you a target.

Barton, for his part, hasn’t buckled. Grounded in his Christian faith and belief in this country, he continues to fight — even as the system tries to break him. He built his company from the ground up and used his success to fund America First initiatives. That alone, under Biden’s corrupt DOJ, made him an enemy.

In one telling move, the court even denied Barton’s request to attend President Trump’s recent inauguration event—a petty but unmistakable message: if you stand with Trump, you’ll be punished.

The real outrage? While the federal government wages war against Barton, Chinese nationals are still quietly scooping up land across America—often near sensitive military sites. Instead of defending U.S. sovereignty, Biden’s regime seems more focused on silencing anyone who exposes the CCP’s agenda.

President Trump has repeatedly vowed to dismantle the deep state, purge political operatives from the DOJ, and bring accountability back to Washington. That mission must include righting the wrongs done to patriots like Timothy Barton. Dismiss the case. Restore his property. And send a loud message: America belongs to Americans—not the CCP, and not the corrupt elite shielding them.
