1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Completely different tale, that of the mysterious Chinese woman carrying 2 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: malware who apparently tried to sneak in Mara Lago while 3 00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: the President was in town. Sarah Blaski joins us. Sarah's 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 1: a reporter with the Miami Harold. Hello, Sarah, how are 5 00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: you hi? You guys, I'm great, Thanks for having me. Sure, 6 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: it's our pleasure. So my question, my first question is, well, 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: why don't you outline what happened? And I guess we'll 8 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:24,159 Speaker 1: get into the follow ups. Sure, So we don't have 9 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: a lot of details, but what we know is on Saturday, 10 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: around you, a woman tried to get into Moral Lago 11 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: and she was stopped by Secret Service, obviously because the 12 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: president and his family were there, and she presented two 13 00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 1: passports from China um identifying herself as U Jings Dang, 14 00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 1: and because she had a similar name to someone who 15 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: apparently is on the guest list at Mara Lago, they 16 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,480 Speaker 1: let her through. She gets into the sort of secondary 17 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: screening area and changes her story. She originally had told 18 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:57,800 Speaker 1: these two guys that she was invited and she wanted 19 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 1: to use the pool. Um she didn't even have a 20 00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: swimming suit on her so in the second area. She says, essentially, 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: I'm here for I'm here for this um uh US 22 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: China Friendship Association event. And they're like, wait what because 23 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,800 Speaker 1: so because of the sort of difference UM in the story, 24 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: they started questioning her more, and she eventually, according to 25 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: the police report, Um became combative when she was asked 26 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: to leave. I think that means verbally and um. She 27 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: was eventually arrested. Her things were searched and it turned 28 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: out she was carrying not a swimming suit, but four 29 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: cell phones, a computer hard drive, and a sumb drive. 30 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: And on that thumb drive there was malware. Now we 31 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: don't know the nature of that. That could be literally 32 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: anything an accident to something much more sinister. You know, Sarah, 33 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: it strikes me that if this woman is a secret 34 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: agent of some sort, she's very very bad at her 35 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: Are you kidding? We just caught the Jane bond to 36 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: Chinese spies and got lucky. I'm here for the Chinese 37 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,320 Speaker 1: US friend relations thingy and I do I have a passport, 38 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: I've got two rights, and pockets full of burner phones 39 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: and all sorts of I mean, that's say, you know, 40 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: I'm not a spy, but that's not the way spies 41 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: do it. I don't think so. Do we have any hints, Sarah, 42 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: that this person might just be a whacka do? I mean, 43 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: it's it's possible. We actually don't know anything more about her. Um. 44 00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 1: Federal authorities are being kind of you know, page with 45 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: details at this point, as you can understand. UM. But 46 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: but the truth day is, we just know she's a 47 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: thirty two year old woman who was trying to enter 48 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: mar Lago. But what I will say is is we've 49 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 1: been talking about Cindy Yang for a couple of weeks, 50 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: this massage parlor owner who has sort of recently rebranded 51 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: herself as someone that can get Chinese executive access to 52 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and she's been selling that access at mar 53 00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 1: Lago and connected to the what's his name just popped 54 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: out of my head? Is that the Yeah? So she 55 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: runs that chain massage parlor. How does that factor into 56 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 1: this story? She was at the Chinese American Friendship Conference. Well, 57 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: actually she is, um business associates with a man who 58 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:22,639 Speaker 1: runs the US Chinese Friendship Association. Sorry, it's called the 59 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 1: Nation's Friendship Association. It's the summit that they were holding 60 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: that day was like this US China Friendship Summit summit, 61 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: and Cindy Yang had been promoting that event um in 62 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: recent weeks on her UM political consulting website where she 63 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: sells this access um sort of saying this is a 64 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: chance to meet high ranking members of Congress. Um. You know, 65 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: come one, come on, come one, come all. So she 66 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 1: runs brothels on the side and then does this as 67 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: her main job, or well, we can't say that she 68 00:03:53,120 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: runs brought so I can say anything. Quote you know 69 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: is that she at one time owned the spa where 70 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: Robert Kraft was Um was busted a couple of months 71 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 1: so um, but she continues to own several spas in 72 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: Florida that all go by the name Tokyo Jay Spa 73 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 1: and and those spots are not related to the current bust, 74 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:24,039 Speaker 1: but they have been investigated themselves separately in recent years 75 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: for similar issues law enforcements. Sarah Blastky as a reporter 76 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: for the Miami Harold, I would ask my co host 77 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: if you could refrain from staining our guests with your slanders. 78 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 1: I would appreciate it. Uh. Now, Sarah, question on the 79 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: whole chain of massage parlors there our question has been 80 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 1: why are the super rich in some cases going to 81 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: like low rent strip mall. You know, Robin tugs is 82 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: the course term, and I hate to use it, but 83 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: do we have any idea why that's the place of 84 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: choice for the rich and powerful? I think that's the 85 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 1: question and everyone has been asking, and if you know 86 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: the answer, please tell me off the air that story. 87 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: So if I had billions of dollars, I wouldn't be, 88 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: you know, schluffing into some strip mall. Okay, so, but 89 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: so you since you're in the area, everybody is wondering 90 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: why the owner of the Patriots on the day of 91 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 1: an important game, why a different professional golfer, wire different 92 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: billionaire all got busted there? It doesn't make sense. I 93 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: mean to give you this straight answer here. What we've 94 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: heard from experts is that massage parlors are incredibly safe 95 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 1: places for a john to get sexual favors. And the 96 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: reason is it's really hard for someone to pose. For 97 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 1: an undercover cop to pose as a massage parlor missus, 98 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 1: I mean, how would they get in, how would they 99 00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: establish that? You know, It's just it's it's much harder 100 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: than say an undercover cops standing on the street soliciting 101 00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: right or sending an ad on the Internet saying meet 102 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 1: me at this hotel. That makes perfect sense. Okay, But 103 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: but there's gotta be something about that particular one. I mean, 104 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: if that area is like any other urban area, I'm 105 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: aware of their Yelp previews, there are hundreds of them, 106 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: and how they all ended up with that same one 107 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 1: just seems odd to me. Oh, I agree. And you know, 108 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 1: if it weren't for that, we wouldn't know anything about 109 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: Cyndi Yang. And so she may just be the most 110 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: unlucky woman in the world that formerly owned a spa. 111 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: Whereas this guy, Robert Craft just happened to get busted. 112 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: We really don't know what drew him there. On Sarah 113 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 1: Blaski with the Miami Herald, Sarah, great job. You really 114 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: enjoyed talking with you. Thanks a Milian, thanks for having me. 115 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: You see, I think I think she enjoyed us at first, 116 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: and she tired of my act. Yes, your act I 117 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 1: think is correct. Near Slanders
