This is thr go to charge for members of the inner circle who fall out. It's also the only way to the top so everyone is corrupt.
Is he of the pro-Xi faction or the other faction?
What percentage of officials partake of graft and corruption? 10%, 20%, 50% or 80% ?
If it is in the upper percentages, why pick him out? Got to start somewhere?
In the novel "If This Goes On" Zeb Jones explains to John Lyle, the protagonist, that he will never be promoted until the system has dirt on him.
WNU has said the same thing about the CCP. It was on the story of the spy chief or upper level Chinese intel official who was working the the US. They got him on corruption, because that is a more palatable story to present to the Chinese public.
a) Start of a new anti-corruption drive and needed an example?
b) a little petty larceny is okay, but his was over the top?
c) He backed the wrong horse, so they went to the file cabinet and checked out his folder?
d) Working for foreign intel, so they went to the file cabinet and checked out his folder?
2:24 voted for c).
He likely tried to get rid of Xi...
Keep in mind, Xi has eliminated so many people around him, he is as popular as Stalin at the later stages, and more isolated than Putin at the moment
On the other hand, the USA is undergoing a treasonous revolt in itself

3:09 Russian troll? Regardless the comment is accurate.
3:39 Russian troll or Former, Retired Liberal College Prof? A reporter for info Wars got 2 months of prison time for standing outside the Capitol Building telling people not to go in. 3:28 if it be a stupid prof, will never be abler to explain why that is meet and right.
Why o why, did the Russians put a heavy mortar in Kam'yanka-Dniprovs'ka? There were better places to put it. Well their ghosts can ponder their actions for a long time.
All of you fighting for your governments. Bicker and argue against each other. Realize that all these mother fuckers are crooked and don’t give a shit about us. We need to join together against them.
