How a renegade Chinese billionaire became a center of DC intrigue - Guo Wengui allegedly offered a pair of conservative operatives $9 million for dirt on his enemies’ porn habits and out-of-wedlock children. Now he’s suing. By @schreckreport

And from Dec 2018 - Bannon and Guo Wengui announced plans to set up a $100 million fund to investigate Chinese govt corruption - Bannon said he was heading the fund 'without pay'
The @SchreckReports story shows how perplexing Guo Wengui is - partnering w/Steve Bannon, while others in Trump's orbit (Steve Wynn & Elliott Broidy) tried to extradite him to China - but Jeff Sessions reportedly threatened to quit if he was extradited

Guo Wengui is a puzzle to China-watchers - one profile of Guo last year reported some Chinese dissidents in New York suspect him of actually being a spy for Beijing... others say he has already proven useful to the US

(🤔 reminds me a bit of Felix Sater)
