Was perusing that same report here when something caught my eye...it is footnote #1: Letter from Steven R. Ross and Mark J. MacDougall to The Honorable Fred Thompson, September 17, 1997. (Ex. 1).

Wow...what are the odds? Thompson was investigating these same types of shenanigans back then and now will be running against Hillary, more than likely in the general election.

From Thompson's Wiki entry:

While in the Senate, Thompson served as the chairman of the Committee on Governmental Affairs from 1997 to 2001. The committee investigated alleged Chinese attempts to influence American politics prior to the 1996 elections. However, Thompson was "largely stymied" during those investigations, with witnesses declining to testify, claiming the right not to incriminate themselves, or simply leaving the United States' jurisdiction.
