This page from a House Oversight report discusses national security concerns regarding Chinese telecommunications companies Huawei and ZTE, citing espionage at the African Union and sanctions violations. It highlights how foreign corporations influence the US political system through lobbying, specifically detailing ZTE's hiring of former Trump campaign official Bryan Lanza via Mercury Public Affairs and HNA's hiring of an advisor to Secretary Wilbur Ross. Note: While the prompt identifies this as 'Epstein-related,' the text on this specific page focuses entirely on Chinese corporate influence and US lobbying, with no direct mention of Jeffrey Epstein.
