* He has not been seen in public for over a month
* CCP investigators reportedly told officials he fathered a baby in the US during an extramarital affair

Update: China Ousted Foreign Minister Over Affair in US, WSJ Says (Bloomberg News)
WNU Editor: Top officials having affairs is nothing new. There is more to this story than what is being told.
Most likely Xi has decided on a course of action and he's purging all the officials civilian and military who have reservations.
ReplyDelete^ I am not discounting it. It is in the top 2 or top 3.
ReplyDeleteIt does not particularly bother me that he had an affair. It seems to be the way of the world. What bothers me is how far they will go in graft and corruption (if any) to support it.
It has always been this way and maybe it is time for a change.
But I think WNU and 10:46 are on the mark.
sounds like swallowswell
ReplyDeleteThat is unfair!! His job was foreign affairs and he had one.
ReplyDeleteI hope at least that the babe was hot and that she was at least some sort of US spy.
