#new Mitch McConnell's wife takes off to China three days after her husband was taken via ambulance to the hospital on 'advanced life support' #China The former Transportation Secretary - Elaine Chao - traveled to Beijing on June 17th and met directly with Chinese Vice President Han ZhengNow questions are swirling about the couple's connections to the Chinese Communist Party and the timing of the meeting while McConnell was (and is) still in the hospital. #DC On the morning of June 14 emergency dispatch audio captured paramedics responding to a cardiac arrest call at the McConnell-Chao home in D.C. The 84-year-old senator was found unconscious.McConnell’s office issued brief statements that day and in the weeks since, saying he was “receiving excellent care” and that his condition “continues to improve.” As of July 4th, he had not returned to public duties, and his office hasn't released any detailed medical updates or timeline for recovery. Chinese state media, including Xinhua, published photos of the meeting the next day. Han Zheng called for stronger China-U.S. ties and referenced a “new vision of a constructive China-U.S. relationship of strategic stability.” Something Chao said she'd work to promote. The announcement, pictures and latest moves have critics questioning who is running McConnell’s Senate office precisely because his wife was in Beijing meeting a top CCP official while he remained hospitalized. During Elaine Chao’s time as Transportation Secretary (2017–2021), ethics questions surfaced over a planned China trip that appeared to mix official duties with family business interests. The trip was canceled after State Department staff raised concerns. She then took photos at the Department of Transportation with her father (deep CCP ties) and Foremost Group employees. She later sold shares in Vulcan Materials more than a year after an initial pledge to divest.In August 2022, then-former President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social that Chao and her family were trying to “get rich on China” and called her “crazy” while criticizing her husband’s political comments at the time. Chao had resigned from the Trump Cabinet shortly after January 6, saying she was “deeply troubled” - but did not mention whether she was troubled about President Xi's communist rule in China. #ChristinaAguayoNews
