Original Note:
Gov. DeSantis was not referring to Confucius, but the "Confucius Institutes", which are operated by the People's Republic of China and have already been shut down over espionage concerns in much of Europe. At the same time, there are only 16 such institutes in the US https://thehill.com/opinion/national-security/3729453-time-to-shut-down-all-confucius-institutes-whatever-they-might-be-called/ https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/IF/IF11180
