A former New York state official, Linda Sun, accused of spying for China, remarked that Governor Kathy Hochul was “much more obedient” than former Governor Andrew Cuomo, as revealed during Sun’s corruption trial. Sun convinced Hochul to participate in a Lunar New Year video for the Chinese consulate, claiming Hochul listened to her more than Cuomo did. Sun faces multiple charges, including violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act, and allegedly facilitated favors for Chinese officials while benefiting her husband’s business. Prosecutors allege she sought to influence state policy regarding China and Taiwan.
