Wife of Never-Trump Columnist Max Boot Indicted in Foreign Spying Scandal
“Terry, a senior fellow for Korea studies at the Council on Foreign Relations think tank, allegedly began spying for South Korea in October 2013, five years after she left the CIA, where she was an analyst on East Asian issues.”
Writer and commentator Max Boot has been a leading figure in the ‘Never Trump’ movement, having pushed the Russia collusion hoax and even calling Trump an asset of Russia.
Now, his wife has been indicted in a spying scandal involving South Korea. Do you believe in karma?
The Daily Caller reports:
Wife Of Notorious Never Trumper Max Boot Indicted In Foreign Spying Scheme
Sue Mi Terry, a former CIA analyst and a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, is accused by federal prosecutors of acting as a secret agent for South Korea.
Terry, whose husband Max Boot regularly falsely accused former President Trump of being a Russian asset, reportedly used her position and access to U.S. officials to provide sensitive information to South Korea in exchange for luxury items and other lavish benefits, according to the indictment, New York Post reported. The allegations state that from Oct. 2013, Terry engaged in activities that compromised her role as an independent foreign policy expert.
Prosecutors claim she disclosed U.S. government secrets and influenced policy decisions to favor South Korea. In return, she allegedly received goods such as a $3,450 Louis Vuitton handbag and a $2,845 Dolce & Gabbana coat, along with dinners at Michelin-starred restaurants, New York Post stated.
Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy.

More from the New York Post report:
Terry, a senior fellow for Korea studies at the Council on Foreign Relations think tank, allegedly began spying for South Korea in October 2013, five years after she left the CIA, where she was an analyst on East Asian issues.
Over the next nearly 10 years, she “disclosed sensitive US government information to South Korean intelligence and used her position to influence US policy in favor of South Korea” — all for “money and luxury gifts,” FBI Acting Assistant Director in Charge Christie M. Curtis said in a statement.
For instance, Terry delivered handwritten notes about a private North Korea-related June 2022 meeting with the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, to her South Korean intelligence handler who picked her up in a car minutes later, according to the indictment unsealed Tuesday.
Weeks after that, Terry hosted a happy hour – at her handlers’ behest – where she allowed the South Korean spy to mingle with congressional staffers while posing as a diplomat, the filing charges.
Presenting herself as an independent expert on US-Korea relations, Terry has also allegedly parroted talking points provided to her by South Korean officials in articles published in the US and Korean press in recent years.
This is what Boot was writing about just three days ago.
I wrote that JD Vance would be the worst possible VP choice. So naturally that’s who Trump selected. https://t.co/fPVzdI8hmx

His Twitter/X account is suddenly awfully quiet. Why do you suppose that is?

Sue who, Terry?
Ugly losers who can’t attract all-American dishes often marry these Asians.
Many Asian women are quite attractive, they are usually smarter than average, most do a good job raising their children (much like Jews). I most certainly would not have objected to an Asian wife, as long as she wasn’t an aspiring spy.
I doubt you could swing one of them. And they’re much, much better than western women. If I had to do it again, I’d have gone to Japan or South Korea to look for a wife.
HAHAHAHAH you sir are………………. Asian women are very attractive.
Don’t tell me about western women, I know all about them……
I have been married to a 5’11 118 pound blond hair blue eyed California girl run way model, that was so far on the crazy scale that she was off the charts.
I have been married to 5’8″ 130 Dirty pound Blond hair Ice blue eyes Lithuanian/Canadian woman that drank herself to death, she once scored a .56 on breathalyzer test after she had been locked up for DUI for four hours before they administered the test.
Today I am happily married to a 5’3″ 96 pound Filipina that is the love of my life…. I won. the lottery when I found her, We now have 3 daughters that are nationally recognized as gifted and live a happy life supporting each other and doing everything we can to make the other happy.
So you sir are more than ignorant……………….
The biggest scandal is not that she’s the wife of a notorious RINO, but that she’s a CIA alum.
Well….the neocons do have a habit of putting the interests of other Nations ahead of the interests of the USA.
How do you know she’s a Neocon?
Her previous govt employment in a particular agency which does the bidding of the neocons, her choice of Husband who is a strident neocon. Then there is the very telling fact she was a Fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations which is the epicenter of the uni-party/forever war/neocon establishment. Being a fellow there is roughly equivalent to being a Monsignor at the Vatican…maybe a little puffery in that analogy but not very much, only neocon/forever war true believers are anointed as Fellows there.
maybe she can be induced to finger hubby, that would be great.
DOJ waits to release this until just now?
Not spying per se, but failing to register as a foreign agent after having accepted compensation. Up until 8 years ago the blob and FBI would just give a person a notice and ask that one retroactively register and pay a fine. That all changed with Manafort and Flynn.
The million dollar questions now should be, “who did she piss off to get a criminal indictment, and why now?”
Well, at least it’s not N. Korea.
Das Boot, sinking by the bow.
New York-based law firm Cravath, Swaine & Moore registered as a foreign agent last week, eight years after the legal practice worked on behalf of Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings.
Meanwhile, first son Hunter Biden has never registered as foreign agent despite raking in $80,000-a-month as a Burisma board member from from 2014 to 2019 – a period which overlapped with the final three years that his father, Joe Biden, served as Barack Obama’s vice president and oversaw the administration’s policy toward Ukraine.
The disclosure, filed Thursday, stems from meetings Cravath, Swaine & Moore partner Thomas Buretta held with Obama administration officials in 2016, after he was retained to represent Mykola Zlochevsky, the owner of Burisma, as his company faced “possible investigations by governmental authorities in the United States.”
Well … at least she was spying for an ally, for what it’s worth.
Wow … cheapest spy, ever! Payoffs like that are well below the minimum wage for international spies. That’s sad, really. His wife is spying for pennies, basically. He must really, really, REALLY suck.
Yeah, even Menendez’s wife rolled higher than THAT.
Those are the sort of “gifts” they use as recruitment blackmail, to get you to do REAL spying for them later.
And trust me, the IC doesn’t even recognize the concept of “spying for an ally.” Everybody is a risk, including the guy in the bathroom mirror.
Boot used to be someone I read on a regular basis as his insights on world affairs was quite good and I highly recommend his book “The Savage Wars of Peace”. However, he left the Republicans and conservatives long ago and TDS ate his reasonableness.
I can’t help but point out that she received far less than Hunter and at least she was spying for one of our allies. Why has Hunter not been rung up on similar?
Betrayal of US National Security interests by handing over info to any foreign Gov’t or entity is, IMO, unforgivable. No hiding behind a fig leaf of ‘they are an ally’ should be tolerated. If were up to me every instance of this probably very frequent sort of betrayal in DC among our self appointed ‘elite’ leveraging their position, knowledge and personal relationships would be rooted out and everyone punished as harshly as possible.
Meh. We’ve degenerated so badly, we now have generals spying for our worst enemies, and bragging about it to the press.
There are plenty of big rocks to make into little rocks or holes to be dug and filled up….more than enough for all of them to do hard labor for life with a daily quota for performance… meet the quota and you get to eat something besides a bologna sandwich and a multivitamin … fail to meet it and sleep outside under a shelter half.
But by those hypothetical standards, Ukraine was an “ally” too. We installed and owned their president, and hosted our CBW labs there.
