For decades, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife Elaine Chao have maintained a glaring conflict of interest, conducting extensive government business despite the Chao family's deep ties to China through a maritime shipping company. Now, former President Donald Trump is calling attention to the top Republican's problematic China ties, while most of Washington remains silent.

Breitbart News senior contributor Peter Schweizer on Sunday detailed how Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his wife Elaine Chao are financially tied to the Chinese Communist Party. Schweizer said on Fox News Channel's "The Next Revolution" that McConnell's "position on China has softened over the years," which he argued is due to the growing relationship between the Chinese government and the Chao's company.
