Small potatoes compared to what Biden sold.
Does anybody know what will deny an SCI clearance today? It seems sexual deviance and Communism no longer apply.
15 years in prison for bribery of a public official....

Everyone with one brain cell knows the PRC is our true #1 threat.
However,
(economic)
Dell, Cisco, HP, GM... all manufacture there.
Amazon, Walmart, Target... >75% of their products are from there.
The PRC holds a massive amount of US securities.
And the PRC is a major US market: >150 Billion USD per year.
(political)
The PRC has lobbying efforts here.
They are a major donor to US politicians through their US based subsidiaries.
(Media / PR)
PRC has much of their media available in the US.
They have been engaging US news media and Hollywood for years.
So, PRC can do no wrong. They can drive tanks over pro-democracy students on Tienanmen Square, and that same year we will give them most favored trade status and support their WTO membership.
They can put their fourth carrier to sea, build aircraft carrier defeating long range missiles and build US carrier outlines in their desert which they shoot at, and other than some specialized defense related or foreign media outlet, you’ll hear not a squeak from US policy makers or our MSM: https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/news/480/cpsprodpb/734E/production/_121481592_china_missile_target_sat_2_2x640-nc.png.webp
