The U.S. Postal Inspection Service on Tuesday offered up a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the person or people who shot and killed a mail carrier delivering letters in Indiana.

The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is working with local authorities to investigate the crime and confirmed Summers was on her mail route when she was shot and killed.

FROM THE WSJ Article:

https://www.wsj.com/articles/chinese-tycoon-holed-up-in-manhattan-hotel-is-accused-of-spying-for-beijing-11563810726?redirect=amp#click=https://t.co/YKhsgIliWb

Chinese Tycoon Holed Up in Manhattan Hotel Is Accused of Spying for Beijing

U.S. research firm in commercial dispute alleges exiled businessman Guo Wengui, a frequent critic of China’s Communist Party, is a spy for Beijing.


For the past four years, Chinese businessman Guo Wengui has lived in an 18th-floor apartment at the Sherry-Netherland Hotel in New York, where he fires off social-media missives that purport to expose corruption at the highest levels of the Chinese government.
He said his efforts have rattled Beijing and that he has applied for U.S. asylum to protect himself. China hard-liners in the U.S., including President Trump’s former adviser Steve Bannon, have rallied to his side.

But Washington-area research firm Strategic Vision US LLC, in a commercial dispute with Mr. Guo, alleged in a federal court counterclaim Friday that he is a spy for the Chinese government.
“Strategic Vision’s claims that Mr. Guo is a Beijing-backed spy utterly lack credibility,” Daniel Podhaskie, an attorney for Mr. Guo, said in a written statement.

According to the filing, a group led by Messrs. Guo and Bannon allegedly discussed ways to provide “large amounts” of money to the Center for Security Policy—a conservative Washington think tank—and the newly formed “Committee on the Present Danger: China” that the center backs. Some people at the think tank viewed it as an attempt by Mr. Guo to take over the anti-China committee, the filing said.

Frank Gaffney, who leads the Center for Security Policy, didn’t respond to requests for comment. Brian Kennedy, chairman of the China committee, said Mr. Guo didn’t offer any donation to it.

Mr. Podhaskie denied the allegations and said Messrs. Guo and Bannon “have a joint mission in regards to China,” which is to “get rid of the radical cadre inside the Communist Party.”

Mr. Bannon declined to comment.

If indeed Mr Guo is a spy for China & why was Bannon protecting him ?
And why does this Chinese billionare & perhaps-spy have ties to Mara-lago?

Am seeing a lot of chatter about Trump/China, and I personally find it a tad bit threatening.
Thought I'd post it to DU in case anyone had an opinion to offer.
Thank you

Consider, then, that the $200+ million Trump owes the Chinese government is due "soon," per POLITICO, meaning Trump knows he has China's support for his re-election—as it has leverage over him it wants to keep—*and* that now is his time to cut a deal.
Trump owes tens of millions to the Bank of China — and the loan is due soon

(The president's financial dealings with the state-owned bank complicate his attacks on Biden.
https://www.politico.com/news/2020/04/24/trump-biden-china-debt-205475)

It is in this context—(1) Trump owing the Chinese $200+ million;
(2) having them as a major renter bringing him tens of millions;
(3) he and his family knowing they want to cut a clandestine deal;
(4) him having coupled personal and U.S. policy and tried to hide it... {cont.}
(5) Pillsbury getting Biden dirt from the Chinese during the same 7-day period Trump demands it; and
(6) Trump warning the Chinese that he has "leverage" to get what he wants because of the trade war *he* started—at the moment coronavirus appears in China in November 2019.
