The best and brightest for sure. From the San Francisco Chronicle:
Feinstein had a Chinese spy connection she didn’t know about — her driver
A staffer in U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s San Francisco office was fired a few years back after being linked to Chinese spying in the Bay Area.
According to a Politico Magazine story on Silicon Valley espionage, the Feinstein staffer was suspected of providing political intelligence — but nothing classified — to his handlers, with one former intelligence official telling author Zach Dorfman that the suspected informant was “run” by officials based at the local Chinese Consulate.
A local source who knew about the incident confirmed to us that the FBI showed up at Feinstein’s office in Washington, D.C., about five years ago to alert the then-chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee that her driver was being investigated for possible Chinese spying.
How many phone calls did this guy overhear. This is a perfect example of why there should be term limits for Congress - the party hardliners get stupid and complacent. Feinstein, Schumer, Pelosi, McConnell - these people are all well past their sell-by date. McConnel has quite the China connection himself. His wife is deeply connected.
