Why Did The FBI Ignore Audra Christiansen’s Epstein Case And Eric Swalwell’s China Connections?
from The Spectacle Podcast: The Official Podcast of The American Spectator
Declassified documents from the FBI from an operation codenamed “Freshman 15” identified Christine Fang, or “Fang Fang,” as a Chinese intelligence spy connected with disgraced Sen. Eric Swalwell. Fang raised money illegally for Swalwell, had a sexual relationship with him, and placed Chinese-linked interns in Congress. In a separate case, court documents released this month also revealed that former Playmate Audra Christiansen’s story of being sexually assaulted and trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein was reported to the FBI by Playboy founder Hugh Hefner in 2005, but Christiansen’s case was neglected till after Epstein’s death in 2019. The Spectacle Podcast hosts Melissa Mackenzie and Scott McKay parse through the details of each case and how the FBI is complicit in letting evil people do evil things. Melissa and Scott debate whether the institution is worth saving, noting how FBI corruption traces back to its beginning and how The American Spectator has reported it. Tune in to hear their discussion!
