FBI Director Kash Patel dropped a major bombshell on X this week when he posted that Arcadia, California, Mayor Eileen Wang has been charged with acting as an illegal agent of the People’s Republic of China in the United States.
“Mayor Wang admitted to acting as a foreign agent from at least 2020 through 2022 — promoting PRC propaganda in the U.S. and acting at PRC’s direction to promote their interests. She has agreed to resign from office and plead guilty,” Patel explained.
“FBI and our federal partners continue to move aggressively to root out this kind of influence in American institutions all over the country,” he added.
Between 2020 and 2022, Wang and her then-fiancé, Yaoning “Mike” Sun, ran a Chinese propaganda website called U.S. News Center, which aimed to publish pro-Beijing content and punish dissidents.
BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere jokes that the situation is “suboptimal” for a mayor.
“You kind of want them to be an agent for your city,” he says.
“It actually says on her website, she’s the daughter of proud immigrants who came to California seeking the American dream,” co-host Dave Landau points out.
“I will say, part of the American dream is making money in illicit fashion. So she’s checked that box off,” Stu says.
“That is the Somalian-American dream,” Dave jokes.
