So, either the White House knew ahead of time that she was a fraud and they hired her anyway, OR they didn’t know anything about her and they hired her anyway. Hmmm…

The website for Chang’s bogus aid organization has been taken down. Too bad for her that there is the Wayback Machine. https://web.archive.org/web/20190803200922/https://www.linkingtheworld.org/
