Representative Liz Cheney’s husband’s law firm represents several Chinese Communist Party-linked clients – including firms tied to the regime’s military – and employs former party officials to undergird its massive China practice, The National Pulse can reveal.
Phillip Perry – the husband of the House Republican Conference Chair who looks set to be ousted over her outlandish criticisms of her own party and its leader Donald Trump – serves as a Partner at Latham & Watkins. The firm, which has offices in Shanghai and Beijing, has worked with companies labeled “tools” of the Chinese Communist Party by the U.S. State Department and People’s Liberation Army collaborators.
Landing the position after working in the George W. Bush administration, Perry has defended the “revolving door” between government officials and lobbying and legal firms:
“The term ‘revolving door’ implies people going in and out of government in order to obtain monetary gain. The reason people go into government is to serve their country. It’s not appropriate to describe that as a ‘revolving door,'” Perry has previously claimed.
Communist Clients. While Perry claims to have gone into government to serve his country, his colleagues are servicing the needs of a foreign, hostile nation.
As part of its “Greater China Practice,” Latham & Watkins describes itself as “advising” Chinese Communist Party-linked technology firm Tencent on its investment in an American company.
Tencent has been described by the State Department’s Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation as a “tool of the Chinese government,” noting the company has “no meaningful ability to tell the Chinese Communist Party ‘no’ if officials decide to ask for their assistance.” It provides “a foundation of technology-facilitated surveillance and social control” as part of the CCP’s broader crusade “to shape the world consistent with its authoritarian model,” the State Department report adds.

Not a surprise
To expound on this, the Chinese are enjoying the fruits and benefits of capitalism, where goods and services are always for sale at competitive prices.
Unfortunately, this includes the services of a good number of people in the US ruling class.
I would like to see a well-researched dig into ALL of the spouses of Congress, with a public report available to every citizen in America.
I think we can all just about guess what would be found in the process.
Wait, what? Husband??
Didn’t she “come out” as homo when Dick was VP?
I think that was a different daughter, or maybe a niece (I’m not knowledgeable about the Cheney family tree).
That was her sister Mary.
Is his law firm in Wyoming or DC?
If in DC, then is he or his wife really a resident of Wyoming?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
bout the same as mitturd being a “resident” of Utah
Cute pic
This is a silly article. Latham is a great firm which has many clients and sophisticated practice areas. All legitimate, as far as I know, and I have seen and reviewed their work off and on for several years.
Kenda had an awesome Murder show.
Never missed an episode. And that show ran for years.
Interesting. Define "legitimate".
So, Big deal, Mitch the Turtle married the Chinese Communist Party.

Gee, I didn’t know she was still married. I assumed that she mated, and then ate her mate like the other Black Widow Spiders do.
This should be banned.
Spouses and families. Like Hunter and Jim Biden.
The Chinese own Biden.
