...John Huang had never before lost his cool in front of his colleagues. Yet here was the Democratic fund raiser agitating for three top executives from the world's biggest foreign investor in China to be invited to a White House coffee for prospective donors. Party officials saw no point in taking up space with foreigners not legally entitled to contribute. But "it was the only time Huang ever snapped," a former party official told TIME. And as a result, the three men from the Bangkok-based CP Group slipped into the White House in early June...
...Senate hearings open this week, Washington's campaign-finance scandal has come down to this: Republican Fred Thompson wants to know if Huang, the architect of Asian fund raising and the must-see Democrat for ethnic-Chinese moguls like the CP trio, was helping funnel foreign money into Democratic coffers and sending back U.S. government secrets in return.

Glenn said Huang had offered to forgo immunity on questions of whether he passed economic or classified information on to China while at the Commerce Department, but is still insisting...
...American miracle, and each helps make the other possible. But they are different worlds. Two Beltways. The office nameplates along @Large Software's one short hallway are an inspiration. They read like a 1990s version of Hollywood's World War II bomber crew. There's Andy Bang, Co Huang, Sharam Sasson, Maurizio Gianola. Edward Montgomery shares an office with Yuri Zhovnirovsky, Roberto Jeres bunks with Jen Yu, and Alex Sherstinsky is doubled up with Samir Elias. Pamela Reilly, Karen Cooper and Steven Kishi are down the hall...
