Former aide to 2 New York governors is charged with being an agent of the Chinese government.

AP reports: “Linda Sun, who held numerous posts in New York state government before rising to the rank of deputy chief of staff for [Gov. Kathy] Hochul, was arrested Tuesday morning along with her husband, Chris Hu, at their $3.5 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, shaped New York governmental messaging to align with the priorities of the Chinese government and attempted to facilitate a trip to China for a high-level politician in New York.”
