Linda Sun, who held numerous posts in New York state government, including deputy chief of staff for Gov. Kathy Hochul and deputy diversity officer for former Gov. Andrew Cuomo, was arrested Tuesday morning along with her husband, Chris Hu, at their $4 million home on Long Island. Prosecutors said Sun, at the request of Chinese officials, blocked representatives of the Taiwanese government from having access to the governor’s office and shaped New York governmental messaging to align with the priorities of the Chinese government, among other things. In return, her husband got help for his business activities in China — a financial boost that prosecutors said allowed the couple to buy their multimillion-dollar property in Manhasset, New York, a condominium in Hawaii for $1.9 million, and luxury cars including a 2024 Ferrari, the indictment says (Associated Press). Townhall: Sun worked in state government for approximately 15 years… In a statement to reporters, Hochul’s office said that Sun was fired after “discovering evidence of misconduct” (Townhall). |

Question. Were they born here, or were they Chinese plants?
"Sun worked in state government for approximately 15 years… In a statement to reporters, Hochul’s office said that Sun was fired after “discovering evidence of misconduct” What sort of misconduct? I want to know what they knew and didn't do a damned thing other than fire her??????
