Why are there no background checks on all people in a public office or supporting role? There should be no non-US citizens in any public office or in supporting roles.

A former aide to two New York governors was charged Tuesday with acting as an illegal agent of the Chinese government who used her state positions to subtly advance Beijing’s agenda in exchange for financial benefits worth millions of dollars.

Linda Sun, who held numerous posts in New York state government, including deputy chief of staff for Gov. Kathy Hochul and deputy diversity officer for former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, was arrested Tuesday morning along with her husband, Chris Hu, at their $4 million home on Long Island.

Federal prosecutors said Sun, at the request of Chinese officials, blocked representatives of the Taiwanese government from having access to the governor’s office and shaped New York governmental messaging to align with the priorities of the Chinese government, among other things.

In return, her husband got help for his business activities in China — a financial boost that prosecutors said allowed the couple to buy their multimillion-dollar property in Manhasset, New York, a condominium in Hawaii for $1.9 million, and luxury cars including a 2024 Ferrari, the indictment says.

China : It's ok. One go two come.

The governor needs to do damage control and address this issue to the public. Hopefully she will also reach out to the Taiwan representatives that have reached out to her, through this horrible person, in the past.

Reminds me how the American Israeli Political Action Committee (AIPAC) acts as a foreign agent for Israel - skipping through the halls of Congress.
