Spokane Smoke: China’s CCP Could be Exploiting another Election Year by Financing Arson
As wildfires devastate the Spokane area, authorities have arrested Aaron Farinacci in connection with the Old Trails Fire, while investigators continue working to determine the causes of the remaining blazes. Independent journalist and investigator Indy Pederson believes the arson story is far bigger than one alleged arsonist and that the circumstances demand a fresh investigation into whether America is once again facing an election-year campaign of coordinated sabotage via arson.

- Pederson investigated the 2020 Pacific Northwest fires through extensive field reporting.
- One arrest does not necessarily explain every Spokane wildfire.
- The CCP should remain a primary investigative suspect, Pederson argues.
- Election-year timing raises significant national security questions.
- Foreign-directed sabotage deserves thorough investigation before being dismissed.
Following the catastrophic Pacific Northwest fires of 2020, Pederson conducted an exhaustive investigation that went far beyond reviewing news reports. Through extensive fieldwork, interviews, and on-the-ground reporting, he examined evidence suggesting the fires may have been part of a coordinated effort to create widespread disruption during a presidential election year with arson. His investigation led him to conclude that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), potentially operating through paid domestic proxies such as ANTIFA activists, should have been treated as a primary suspect.
Now, nearly six years later, America once again finds itself approaching a national election while another series of destructive fires grips the Pacific Northwest.
Pederson is not claiming investigators have already established a connection between the Spokane fires and Beijing. Rather, he argues that the possibility of foreign-directed sabotage should be investigated before it is dismissed. The arrest of Aaron Farinacci may explain one fire, but it does not necessarily account for every blaze or rule out the possibility of broader coordination.
President Trump has repeatedly warned that China is working to disrupt American elections and undermine the United States through unconventional means. While much of the public discussion has centered on cyber operations and espionage, Pederson argues that coordinated acts of arson capable of creating panic, economic damage, and widespread displacement deserve equal attention as potential instruments of foreign influence.
Because of his years-long investigation into the 2020 Pacific Northwest fires, Pederson is uniquely positioned to compare today’s events with those that unfolded during the last presidential election. He can discuss the similarities, identify investigative leads that deserve greater scrutiny, explain why China’s CCP should be considered a primary suspect until evidence proves otherwise, and examine whether America is witnessing the return of an election-year strategy designed to sow fear, division, and instability.
With investigators still gathering evidence and many questions remaining unanswered, Pederson offers audiences a timely perspective on why the Spokane fires should be examined not only as isolated criminal acts, but also through the lens of national security and foreign interference.
