Among the McAuliffe donations that drew the interest of the investigators was $120,000 from a Chinese businessman, Wang Wenliang, through his U.S. businesses. Wang was previously delegate to China’s National People’s Congress, the country’s ceremonial legislature.

Wang also has been a donor to the Clinton foundation, pledging $2 million. He also has been a prolific donor to other causes, including to New York University, Harvard and environmental issues in Florida.

Wang holds a green card, and as such is eligible to contribute to McAuliffe’s campaign, his spokeswoman told WTVR. Federal law generally prohibits foreign nationals from donating to elections, but makes an exception for green-card holders.

And why in the **** do you have to have green card to donate $120,000 to a governor's campaign fund?

In other news, it's shocking...shocking I tell ya that there's a Clinton connection here...
