“Federal prosecutors have accused a former high-level aide to New York’s governor of secretly working for China in exchange for perks like orchestra tickets, millions in cash, and over a dozen Nanjing-style salted ducks.
Linda Sun, who worked for Gov. Kathy Hochul and her predecessor, Andrew Cuomo, was charged on Tuesday with over 10 criminal counts, including visa fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
Sun, 40, is accused of blocking Taiwanese officials’ access to the New York governor’s office and changing public messages from both governors to boost China’s talking points, among other acts.
According to the Justice Department, she also sent messages informing the Chinese consulate about Taiwan’s requests to the governor’s office.”

“Bradleys, like most of Ukraine’s equipment, are targets for Russian drones.
Drones have been used more in this war than in any other conflict in history, with both sides using them to take out equipment and soldiers and to gather intelligence to direct more powerful weaponry.
The prevalence of drones, where sometimes dozens of drones can go after one target, means battlefield tactics constantly have to adapt — including ways to protect high-value tanks and armored vehicles.
That means new types of shielding are being tried and tested in this war, including improvised armor on tanks and nets designed to trap drones.”
