Scandal #1 Elaine Chao, Trump's Transportation Secretary & Mitch McConnell's Wife. Chao has boosted the profile of her family’s shipping co, which benefits from her industrial policies in China

nytimes.com/2019/06/02/us/…
Chao oversees American maritime industry. Her family’s shipping co. Foremost Group, has deep ties to Chinese elite.
Ms. Chao has no formal affiliation or stake in her family’s shipping business, Foremost Group. But she and her husband, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, have received millions of dollars in gifts from her father, James, who ran the company until last year.
And Mr. McConnell’s re-election campaigns have received more than $1 million in contributions from Ms. Chao’s extended family, including from her father and her sister Angela, now Foremost’s chief executive, who were both subjects of the State Department’s ethics question.
