Ranchers in Texas are on the verge of booting out Chinese billionaire Sun Guangxin (right), who has bought more than 130,000 acres of farmland in the state, raising questions of national security. Sun, a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) affiliate, paid $110 million for swaths of real estate between 2016 and 2018. However, DailyMail.com reports he has sold the most volatile component of his portfolio, a 15,000-acre ranch that included plans for a 46-turbine wind farm, and is planning to sell the majority of his vast Texan empire. Both Dallas Barrington and Philip Walker (left) of Seven Oaks Ranch, which neighbors the site of the controversial wind farm, have triggered local resistance against the proposal, saying it would give the former Chinese military captain access to the vital infrastructure and destroy the wild landscape. However, concerns that ongoing contracts could force Sun to maintain an interest in his businesses have remained.
