Rep. Eric Swalwell’s (D-CA) father and brother are no longer Facebook friends with suspected Chinese spy Christine Fang.
“Earlier Wednesday they were still friended years after the FBI flagged her for suspicious activities and the congressman cut her off. Later in the day, following reporting on the connections, their accounts no longer appeared on her friends list,” Fox News reported Wednesday.
When she arrived in California as a college student in 2011, Fang was allegedly part of an effort to befriend and spy on lawmakers there and in other parts of the United States.
“Both Eric Swalwell Sr. and Joshua Falwell were listed as friends on her Facebook account, raising questions about how close Fang was to the congressman,” the Fox report said.
