URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!
(DC Pundit) – While the left spends its time shrieking about phantom threats to democracy, a real and documented one just walked into a federal courthouse and pleaded guilty. Eileen Wang, the now former Mayor of Arcadia, California, has admitted in a federal plea deal to acting as a covert agent for the People’s Republic of China.
The plea deal, unsealed Monday, revealed that Wang worked with her then-fiancé, Yaoning “Mike” Sun, on a website called “U.S. News Center,” which was marketed as a news source for Chinese Americans. In reality, it was a propaganda operation. Wang and Sun “executed directives” from the Chinese government, posting content designed to boost Beijing’s image while dutifully reporting back to their handlers with screenshots showing how many Americans had viewed the stories.
The operation ran between 2020 and 2022 — the same period during which Wang was elected to the Arcadia City Council in November 2022. One particularly brazen directive had Wang’s Chinese spymaster ordering the website to publish an essay dismissing well-documented accusations of genocide and forced labor in the Xinjiang region. “There is no genocide in Xinjiang; there is no such thing as ‘forced labor’ in any production activity, including cotton production. Spreading such rumor is to defame China, destroy Xinjiang’s safety and stability,” the spymaster wrote, per the plea agreement. Wang complied. Her handler responded, “So fast, thank you everyone.” In another exchange, Wang replied, “Thank you leader,” after receiving praise for strong page view numbers on published propaganda. Charming.
A senior aide to NY Governors, Linda Sun, is also on trial right now for acting as an agent of the CCP.
I think people will be shocked once they realize just how many people in America China has on their payroll. https://t.co/E3Y6K9sAVL

The charges carry a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. A magistrate judge ordered a $25,000 bond and required Wang to surrender all passports and travel documents. Assistant U.S. Attorney Amanda B. Elbogen also requested that Wang be barred from any communication with the Chinese government, including consular officials operating on U.S. soil.
Wang’s attorneys offered up the defense that her actions pertained to her “personal life” and “not to her conduct as an elected public official.” Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli wasn’t buying it. “Individuals in our country who covertly do the bidding of foreign governments undermine our democracy,” Essayli said. “This plea agreement is the latest success in our determination to defend the homeland against China’s efforts to corrupt our institutions.”
The City of Arcadia confirmed Wang will be “vacating her position” as the Council selects a replacement.
This case is cold, hard proof that China’s long game of infiltrating American institutions, dismissed for years as paranoia by the same people who’d rather look the other way, is real.
