A senior Texas Senator has demanded the Pentagon shut down a vast wind farm linked to a Chinese billionaire citing a major threat to national security, DailyMail.com can reveal.

John Cornyn has said that former People's Liberation Army (PLA) captain Sun Guangxin 'likely plans' to use dozens of 700-foot high wind turbines to spy on a nearby Air Force base 'at the behest of the Chinese government'.

In a letter written to Department of Defense (DoD) executive director Steve Sample on July 10, obtained by DailyMail.com, Senator Cornyn called for the project to be 'terminated' until the Senate can carry out a full investigation into the threat it poses to the U.S. military.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Cornyn is right, but I doubt this will go anywhere as long as Joe and his cronies are in charge
