China’s National Defense Minister Li Shangfu has been missing for weeks. Now, he’s under investigation for corruption and out of a job

Probably getting fired and/or arrested for corruption if I had to guess. Just a thought though.

Wow so you don't think Xi abducted him in the middle of the night with the tractor beam on his spaceship

If Xi piloted a flying saucer to kidnap military officers, I'd have no choice but to support him.
