Tony Podesta made $1 million to lobby the White House on behalf of Chinese telecommunications company Huawei. His brother, John Podesta, has been an adviser to Presidents Obama and Clinton.
The Biden administration described the Chinese company as "a national security threat" after the Washington Post report was published. BIDEN COMMERCE NOMINEE SIGNED AGREEMENT THAT CLEARED HUAWEI CFO OF FRAUD CHARGES
"I don’t have a comment on the specifics of this report but President Biden and the administration continue to believe Huawei is a national security threat," a National Security Council spokesperson told Fox in December. "That is why it remains on the entity list and why this administration designated it under E.O. 14032 for operating in the defense and related [material] and/or surveillance technology sectors of the PRC economy.
Podesta was hired by Huawei over the summer to assist the company with "[t]elecommunications and trade issues," after leaving lobbying for the art world following Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation during the Trump administration. The White House did not immediately respond to FOX Business’ request for comment on the public disclosure forms.
