Ron Johnson trying to get a Chinese spy and arms dealer immunity

House Republicans’ Great Hope to Bring Down β€œBiden Crime Family” Was … a Chinese Spy?!

Luftβ€”who again, has repeatedly charged the Biden family of Chinese corruptionβ€”was charged Monday night with brokering deals for China, Iran, and even Libya. The U.S Attorney for the southern district of New York released a statement alleging that in 2016, Luft paid a former Trump advisor on behalf of Chinese principals, without registering as a foreign agent, to push policies favorable to China.

The attorney’s office accused Luft of setting up meetings between Iranian officials and a Chinese energy company for potential oil deals, in violation of U.S. sanctions on Iran. Luft also allegedly worked as an illicit arms dealer, attempting to broker the sale of weapons to China, Libya, Kenya, and the United Arab Emirates.>

Luft is not currently in U.S. custody. He was arrested in Cyprus in February, but fled when he was released on bail to await extradition. He has repeatedly insisted that the Biden administration is trying to silence himβ€”a claim on which Republicans have gladly seized.

β€œHe’s literally fleeing for his life right now. He’s on the run,” Senator Ron Johnson said of Luft Sunday.

Speaking to Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo, Johnson said Luft is β€œan important witness. He needs to be granted immunity to be able to testify and tell his story.”
