Chao Down
With CCP Ties, Mitch McConnell’s Wife Putting Political Establishment’s Stock on Unappetizing Menu
What if one of Washington’s most powerful political families had a documented connection to organizations tied to the Chinese Communist Party, and virtually nobody in Washington thought it was worth asking questions? Joshua Philipp, Nan Su, and Jan Jekielek, all from The Epoch Times, can dissect a bombshell Daily Caller investigation uncovering Chinese government and state-media records indicating that Elaine Chao, wife of former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, received multiple appointments from Chinese government and United Front Work Department-linked organizations, including appointments that overlapped with her service as a U.S. Cabinet secretary.
- CCP-linked appointments allegedly overlapped with Chao’s Cabinet service
- Chinese records raise questions about undisclosed foreign-government relationships
- Why did Washington never seriously scrutinize these connections?
- United Front organizations cultivate influence among foreign elites
- Chao’s case could expose a larger CCP influence problem
