Biden administration sues casino mogul Stephen Wynn
Washington Times ^ | 05/17/2022 | Alex Swayer

The Biden administration on Tuesday sued hotelier Stephen Wynn to force him to register as a foreign agent under the Foreign Agents Registration Act.

The government claimed Mr. Wynn lobbied on behalf of officials of the People’s Republic of China during the Trump administration.

The 13-page complaint filed in federal court in Washington said Mr. Wynn, former CEO of Wynn Resorts, acted on behalf of Sun Lijun, then-vice minister of public security for the PRC.

Mr. Wynn allegedly had dinner and calls with former President Donald Trump in 2017 concerning canceling a visa of a businessperson who left China in 2014 to seek political asylum in the U.S. China now seeks to charge that individual with corruption.

“The filing of this suit – the first affirmative civil lawsuit under FARA in more than three decades – demonstrates the department’s commitment to ensuring transparency in our democratic system,” said Matthew G. Olsen, assistant attorney general of the Justice Department’s National Security Division. “Where a foreign government uses an American as its agent to influence policy decisions in the United States, FARA gives the American people a right to know.”

So, the guy was seeking Asylum from China, but someone who brings his plight to the President is accused of being an unregistered agent of China? Did I read that correctly?

If this was merely hypocrisy, I’d still be outraged, but it is hypocrisy , AND political revenge AND harassment.

“Gee, then Biden should sue himself and his crime family”

This and the other posts on this thread. I seem to recall that Wynn is legally blind. They seem to have no shame.

There might be a teensy-weensy bit of politics in this suit. And it sounds a lot like projection.

“Steve Bannon regularly abuses Wynn on his program. The media need not make this out as a Trump problem. There are two side to this. Wynn is a POS. Because he is a big time business man, he talks to politicians. One happened to be Trump. That says nothing about Trump.”

Nope, that is the result of the mobs type of justice.

And there are most likely many more in there.

One of the last guys who might have known anything at all about that died in 2020 in Las Vegas.

DOJ never charged the Hanoi Lobby leaders including Hayden, Fonda, Dellinger, Cora Weiss, Bill Zimmerman, etc. as agents of a hostile foreign power/enemy. The same for the Castro Lobby, the Sandinista Lobby, the FSLN in So Salvador, the Code Pink Chavez/Maduro Lobby for red Venezuela, etc.

Believe me, some of us tried to get them to do it, in our congressional testimonies, news articles, reports, etc. Nada damn thing happened.

This DOJ department of National Security is as politically corrupt as can be and is, in and of itself, “an existential threat” to Americans and America”.

Our communist masters are emboldened by both the fact that: The communists have competed their rape of the United States (a name that is now a misnomer) and it has turned out that the sheeple just do not seem to care...

For example:

  1. The sheeple-morons are still referring to them as Democrats instead of Communists;
  2. A young woman was senselessly murdered inside the U.S. Capital and not a single person raised a hand to apprehend the culprit;
  3. The government has imprisoned peaceful demonstrators for over a year and there has been no significant outcry or action from the sheeple;
  4. Parents have been clearly told that the children belong to the government indoctrinators;
  5. Key communist control tools (wokeness, snitching, thought control, & speech control) have been fully implemented and accepted by the sheeple;
  6. Travel controls are now shaping up with the soon-to-be-accomplished target of Obama's stated $10 gas-price;
  7. A presidential election was blatantly & unashamedly stolen with absolutely no repercussions; and, finally,
  8. Absolutely nothing of any substance has been done over the past 60-years to stop them from making permanent the near absolute power they now wield...

The Communist Purge & All Other Aspects of Our Communist Tyranny Continues To Grow Exponentially...
More & More, It Appears That Nothing Will Ever Be Done About It!

Interesting.

Didn’t Hunter lobby the Chinese, Russians, Ukrainians, et al on behalf of the “Big Guy? ? ?”
