Thanks, mom.
A China-born US Navy sailor accused of selling sensitive ship information to the Chinese government was denied bail on Tuesday after prosecutors said his mother encouraged him to participate in the scheme.
Jinchao Wei, 22, faces four charges in San Diego federal court related to his alleged deal with an unnamed Chinese military intelligence officer to provide “documents, sketches, plans, notes and information” in exchange for cold, hard cash.
The officer asked Wei in February 2022 to work as an informant as he was applying to become a naturalized citizen.
Despite knowing it could threaten his chances, Wei ultimately agreed to the arrangement, prosecutors said in the Tuesday detention hearing.
In arguing against his release from jail, Assistant US Attorney Fred Sheppard revealed that Wei’s mother, who was not named in court, knew of her son’s treasonous side hustle and encouraged him to continue cooperating because it could lead to a future job in the Chinese government.

Espionage just like mom used to make.
No trying to impose on Biden’s racket.
If only his name was “Biden.” Poor guy was born into the wrong family.
the “mom-told-me-it-was-ok” defense.
“Money is money.”
Ancient Chinese Secret.
Just who does he think he is? A Biden?
Fang Fang had something better to offer.
huh.
Why waste the rope?
It’s pretty cool that the U.S. Navy is now hiring the Red Chinese. The military has come a long way since we dumbass patriots were serving in it.

Sure beats U.S. citizenship. Chinese treason is our strength.
Who the hell vetted this guy for enlistment to begin with? What kind of access did he have? Surely he didn’t have a secrity clearance...did he?
Well at least he’s rolling up the chain. They can visit each other at Leavenworth.
Chicoms threaten family in China.
I’m not saying this as an excuse for what he did.
With Biden’s open borders he’s only one of many in that game.
M is for the many secrets stolen
O is for overtly breaking our laws
T is for the treason she encouraged
H is for the hell she wanted us to pay
E is for the espionage she pushed
R is the for the raw anti US bias
Put them all together, they spell “MOTHER”
and lock her up before they execute.
The original lyrics were written in 1915 and the song is titled Mother:A Word That Means the World to Me.
They’re stupid enough to recruit a “China born” sailor
I bet China laughs at the stupidity of the DOD
Very enterprising. Why should the Big Guy get all the Chinese dough?
