The top secret June 2025 B-2 Bomber strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities was launched from Whiteman Air Force base, which shares a fence with a foreign-owned trailer park linked to a convicted fraudster with Chinese Communist Party (CCP) intelligence ties.
The Knob Noster Trailer Park in rural Missouri is located less than a mile from the runway of “the world’s only nuclear-capable stealth bomber.” Business filings and social media posts reveal the RV park is one of several properties near U.S. military interests acquired by a web of shell companies, which are ultimately owned by a couple who live in Canada and belong to organizations controlled by disgraced Chinese tycoon and self-described former CCP intelligence “affiliate,” Miles Guo, The New Yorker wrote in a 2022 profile.
Guo did not respond to multiple requests for comment. The Knob Noster Trailer Park’s manager declined to comment.
The companies’ purchases raise serious national security concerns and must be investigated by federal authorities, says State Armor, a nonprofit focused on countering the CCP. State Armor provided information to the Daily Caller News Foundation for use in its investigation.
“China is pre-positioning assets across the U.S. in both the cyber and physical realm,” Michael Lucci, founder and CEO of State Armor, told the DCNF. “They seek to be able to incapacitate us. Federal and state leaders should be rapidly assessing how China’s assets within the U.S. — including industrial, residential and commercial properties on top of agricultural land — will double for military use. China’s agents should be expelled accordingly.”
‘Thin Veneer Of Legitimacy’
Business records for the property neighboring Whiteman AFB reveal a curious maze of shell companies that appear to have been established solely for the trailer park’s purchase.
Four days after an entity called Property Solutions 3603 LP registered as a Missouri limited partnership on Aug. 28, 2017, business filings show the company purchased an approximately 25-acre RV park located directly north of Whiteman AFB in the town of Knob Noster, population 2,902.
Three months later, the company registered to operate under the business name “Knob Noster Trailer Park.”
In October 2017, the trailer park was placed under the control of a Georgia firm owned by Esther Mei and Cheng Hu, a Canadian couple at the center of the web of companies including Property Solutions 3603, and two others that have all used the same Michigan address, Utah business filings, Missouri and Michigan property records show.
Mei and Hu did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
The use of foreign citizens and shell companies is “classic Chinese intel ops” providing the CCP with a “thin veneer of legitimacy,” Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA operations officer, told the DCNF.
“There’s zero chance a Chinese couple from Canada rolled into Knob Noster and saw a strictly financial investment in a dumpy plot of land,” said Wright, who now hosts The Wright Report. “This trailer park would hypothetically give Xi Jinping a range of options to wreak havoc. For example, certain spy tools can connect to the local grid and fry systems at Whiteman AFB. He might also house signals intelligence equipment like a StingRay to catch cell phone data of people on base and target them for later recruitment. He can also hide attack drones or even missiles in nearby storage units and otherwise benign-looking shipping containers, as we’ve seen in the war in Ukraine and Russia.”
Social media posts indicate that Mei and Hu are members of the New Federal State of China (NFSC), a purported political movement to “take down” the CCP that was launched in 2017 by Miles Guo, who was found guilty of orchestrating an over $1 billion fraud conspiracy in July 2024. Guo is awaiting sentencing on the fraud conviction. Although NFSC champions Guo as “the CCP’s number one enemy,” questions linger about the exact nature of his relationship with the Chinese government in light of Guo’s repeated acknowledgment of close ties with Chinese intelligence arms. In one interview, Guo said that China’s Ministry of State Security had tasked him with “handling things for them” and had used the code name “Wu Nan,” The New Yorker reported in October 2022.
The FBI also discovered two gold People’s Liberation Army pins bearing CCP symbols as well as 29 cell phones, a cell phone scrambler, and multiple passports within the mogul’s U.S. properties during March 2023 raids.
While it is unclear how the couple first entered into Guo’s orbit, the firebrand has interviewed them on several NFSC livestreams, and they have defended him using their social media platforms, from which they also host NFSC programs. The DCNF has not been able to determine the location of the NFSC’s internet server, but it appears likely to be located in the U.S.
The NFSC did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
Hu hosts “NFSC Promotion Team” shows like “Flowery Talk” using his moniker “Flowers In June,” and Mei has used the name “Estie” to host programs like “NFSC Finance” on YouTube and other platforms, according to DCNF translations of social media posts.
DCNF translations show the couple have also hosted shows for NFSC’s “Vancouver Sailing Farm,” which was named as a party in a civil adversary proceeding related to Guo’s ongoing bankruptcy case in February 2024. The court-appointed trustee for the bankruptcy case alleges Guo attempted to hide his assets by fraudulently transferring $255,000 to NFSC’s Vancouver arm.
While the couple have not been named in that lawsuit, they are named in a May 2024 civil claim in British Columbia brought by Gao Bingchen, a Canadian journalist, who alleges they and other NFSC members slandered him as a “CCP spy” during demonstrations held outside his home in 2020 and 2023. Several videos Gao posted to social media appear to show Mei and Hu demonstrating outside his Surrey home.
“The defendants, Estie and Cheng Hu, have not responded to my lawsuit, and the court will issue a default judgment after May,” Gao told the DCNF. “I have no connection whatsoever with any CCP organization.”
Mei and Hu’s ownership of the Knob Noster Trailer Park poses a serious national security threat given their relationship with Guo, Lucci told the DCNF.
“It is a five-alarm fire for foreigners tied to Chinese intelligence to own the mobile home and RV park that is essentially off Whiteman’s runway,” Lucci said, pointing to one Google review video for the trailer park showing a B-2 landing at Whiteman AFB’s runway less than a mile away from the property.
“Beyond the obvious risk of photos and footage of B-2 bombers, properties immediately adjacent to an airfield create direct — and dangerous — access vectors,” L.J. Eads, a former Air Force intelligence analyst, told the DCNF, and pointed to satellite communications (SATCOM) infrastructure located on the north end of Whiteman AFB.
“Those dishes are plausibly tied to the base’s SATCOM and secure command-and-control links and would logically fall under the purview of the 509th Communications Squadron,” Eads said. “The 509th is responsible for the B-2’s global-strike command, control, and communications networks — the systems that allow the bomber force to receive, process, and transmit mission data securely from Whiteman or forward-deployed locations.”
Line-of-sight and/or close proximity is a requirement for some methods of surveillance and electronic warfare attacks, Eads told the DCNF.
“In a left-of-war environment the CCP would prize that marginal access to map and influence these links,” Eads said. “In wartime the same access becomes a high-value avenue to disrupt tactical command-and-control, and mission assurance. That’s precisely why continuous counterintelligence, emissions-control, and community reporting matter.”
‘Alarmed’
The couple’s company acquired the Missouri RV park and several other properties, which are located near U.S. military bases and a General Motors facility producing defense hardware, while Mei worked for a foreign investment firm with extensive ties to the Chinese government, business filings show.
“Individuals affiliated with the Chinese government use shell companies to disguise their identities and their intentions,” Michigan Republican Rep. John Moolenaar, chairman of the House Select Committee on the CCP told the DCNF.
“That’s why land transactions near our military sites need to be scrutinized to the highest degree,” Moolenaar said. “I have bipartisan legislation that would increase transparency of foreign ownership of American land and Congress needs to act to support the Trump’s administration’s efforts to protect land near sensitive military sites.”
Around two weeks after Property Solutions 3603 bought the Knob Noster trailer park, Property Solutions 3601 LLC, which is also controlled by the couple, purchased the Pecan Grove Mobile Home Park in Oglethorpe, Georgia in September 2017, business filings and property records show.
The Georgia trailer park is located approximately 35 miles from Robins Air Force Base — a U.S. military logistical hub — and 50 miles from Fort Benning, which is home to the Army’s Airborne, Armor and Infantry schools, according to the Department of Defense (DOD).
“Kinetic weapons can obviously reach targets at 30–50 miles, but the real operational leverage for the CCP at those distances lies in electronic warfare, cyber intrusion, and persistent intelligence surveillance and reconnaissance,” Eads said. “Those capabilities are easier to operate from standoff, easier to maintain and hide, and allow adversaries to surveil, jam, and degrade critical nodes while remaining effectively ‘off the map’ of conventional defenses — precisely why co-location matters.”
Business filings show that when the couple purchased the trailer parks, Mei was a board member of Urban Select Capital Corporation, a Vancouver investment firm with offices in China. Founded in September 2007 as Orient Venture Capital II Inc., the company changed its name to China Select Capital Partners Corp. in April 2010 and rebranded again as Urban Select in October 2011, according to business records.
By the time Mei was hired in June 2016, the now-defunct firm had offices in Hong Kong, Beijing and had formed an investment company in the Suzhou Industrial Park (SIP), a Chinese government-controlled zone that has housed at least 17 companies sanctioned by the U.S. government for supporting China’s military since 2019, according to federal records.
The firm had also by then formed partnerships with several Chinese state-owned enterprises, including SIP’s investment arm, Suzhou Venture Holdings (now called Oriza Holdings), which runs a venture capital center supporting China’s strategy to repurpose civilian technology for its military.
At least four CCP members have been listed on the Vancouver firm’s website as employees, as well as a National People’s Congress delegate, a staff member for a Chinese influence and intelligence service affiliate called the Chinese People’s Association For Friendship With Foreign Countries (CPAFFC), and several high-level personnel in the State Council’s National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), according to business filings and DCNF translations of Chinese government records.
The firm listed one such board advisor, who is also a party member, as having held positions within both the 863 Program and 973 Program, which employ overt and covert means to acquire U.S. technology in order to advance China’s national defense, according to federal reports.
While Mei left Urban Select in February 2019, and the couple ultimately sold the Georgia trailer park in May 2023, Property Solutions 3601 continues to own two Pontiac, Michigan homes less than a mile from General Motors and its Global Propulsion Systems facility, which develops DOD products, according to property records and an announcement from GM subsidiary GM Defense LLC.
Other properties in Canada, Washington, Michigan, and Utah have also been owned by the companies or have been listed as being associated with them, however do not appear to be located near U.S. military interests.
As China and its allies seek to realign global power, the U.S. must be on guard and expect the unexpected, Wright told the DCNF.
“The FBI and Department of War should be on this case immediately,” Wright said. “It deserves an alarmed reaction.”

I’m sure China would let us set up a nice big trailer park next to the PLAA base that houses their most high-tech operational bomber.
If dual citizens from China get close access to our bombers, they may sabotage us and prevent us from bombing targets that other dual citizens pay our President to bomb.
That wouldn’t be good at all.
Keystone Kops on steroids.
Juristictions in Missouri can condemn the property and purchase it. Get to it.
President XI looks like Winnie the Pooh.
Or investigate which ones just bought new vacation homes and luxury cars in the recent past.
TV tells people they are entitled to certain depicted lifestyles - even if they have to take cartel or CCP money to get them.
Guo did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
Gives finger while holding YOU STUPID sign.
Why do we sell adjacent land to the ChiComs ever? It is such a simple, stupid thing. It’s like Boris and Natasha, or the U.S. Navy selling decommissioned subs to the Penguin.
and an hour later they can condemn it again
P N GUIN
Only in America...
Reminiscent of the thousands of japs living and traveling around Pearl Harbor during the 1930s...
Their precise reports enabled the japs to construct a detailed physical twin to the Pearl Harbor area to practice their attack strategies on, long before the actual attack...
The chicoms are just as sneaky...
Finally, some good, in-depth reporting on this sort of property ownership.
FedGov needs to investigate right away. It’s best to manage expectations, as ownership could change and Foreign Nationals could still park RV trailers at the park for a “vacation”.
Fat Susie wiles will not tell the stable Genius of this so he will never know. He and tough talking tom turkey neck homan should be raiding / seizing THESE people and their land, but they are intent on bumbling and stumbling their time away with Pedro the shitty roofer.
There's a couple of good Accadian names ...
Contrary to popular ignorance, Japanese and Japanese descended people were excluded from the West Coast for very good reasons. We had broken their Naval and Diplomatic codes and KNEW that there were spies and saboteurs amongst them ... even knew who many of them were.
What is your problem?
You can’t make the point without the disparaging shots like “fat”, etc?
Grow up.
