First, notice that Sun is a FORMER government official. Apparently no one bothered to take action while she was in place, able to and doing the damage. It was only after her usefulness to The Party was over that she was sacrificed. Why is that? Was she acting under the umbrella of the BidenHarris regime, and with their unspoken approval? After all, THEY were also taking Chinese money for favors, and have still yet, to this day, neither been prosecuted or even seriously investigated for it.
Second, I think this may be an indication of a sea change. Why is DOJ all of a sudden interested in prosecuting Democrat bad actors when for the last 4 years or more they have been allowed to slide unimpeded while everyone was taking their pitchforks and torches after Trump, J6ers, and, well, anyone on the Right who displeased the regime? Why NOW? Could it be that they are secretly uneasy about the potential outcome of the upcoming elections, and want to get a head-start on trying to look good now, at this late date, just in case? Are they getting jittery at the possibility that their days may be numbered, just like Comer did in the run-up to the 2016 election, declaring Killary "guilty" but refusing to prosecute, trying to hedge his bet in either eventuality?
Third, this is how most criminals get caught - spending their ill-gotten gains on ridiculously unnecessary crap. Who on Earth needs a 4 million dollar house, a 2 million dollar condo, when they only have one ass to house? Then there is the matter if that 2024 Ferrari... But buying crap one cannot afford with the money they are legitimately bringing in is what puts most high-level criminals on the radar and gets them examined. Until that happens, no one has a clue to give them a look-over, as mere money can be hidden from sight... but luxury houses, luxury cars, luxury boats, etc cannot be hidden from sight. They are right there in the open to be seen. Matter of fact, that is their entire purpose - to be seen. They are "look at me, and how much better I am than you" bragging items.
And that greed and bragging is what gets dumbasses busted.

Good question "Why NOW?" I think you may be over target on your second observation. Fairly recently, Hillary scolded Gov Hochul for not being aggressive enough on winning Dem House seats. I believe NY currently has 15 Dems & 11 GOP. 5 or 6 seats flipped to the GOP in 2023. So, yea, the mob or blob just might be getting nervous. 100% on your third observation. Every damn time that gets them doomed.
