Speaker 1: Completely different tale, that of the mysterious Chinese woman carrying
Speaker 1: malware who apparently tried to sneak in Mara Lago while
Speaker 1: the President was in town. Sarah Blaski joins us. Sarah's
Speaker 1: a reporter with the Miami Harold. Hello, Sarah, how are
Speaker 1: you hi? You guys, I'm great, Thanks for having me. Sure,
Speaker 1: it's our pleasure. So my question, my first question is, well,
Speaker 1: why don't you outline what happened? And I guess we'll
Speaker 1: get into the follow ups. Sure, So we don't have
Speaker 1: a lot of details, but what we know is on Saturday,
Speaker 1: around you, a woman tried to get into Moral Lago
Speaker 1: and she was stopped by Secret Service, obviously because the
Speaker 1: president and his family were there, and she presented two
Speaker 1: passports from China um identifying herself as U Jings Dang,
Speaker 1: and because she had a similar name to someone who
Speaker 1: apparently is on the guest list at Mara Lago, they
Speaker 1: let her through. She gets into the sort of secondary
Speaker 1: screening area and changes her story. She originally had told
Speaker 1: these two guys that she was invited and she wanted
Speaker 1: to use the pool. Um she didn't even have a
Speaker 1: swimming suit on her so in the second area. She says, essentially,
Speaker 1: I'm here for I'm here for this um uh US
Speaker 1: China Friendship Association event. And they're like, wait what because
Speaker 1: so because of the sort of difference UM in the story,
Speaker 1: they started questioning her more, and she eventually, according to
Speaker 1: the police report, Um became combative when she was asked
Speaker 1: to leave. I think that means verbally and um. She
Speaker 1: was eventually arrested. Her things were searched and it turned
Speaker 1: out she was carrying not a swimming suit, but four
Speaker 1: cell phones, a computer hard drive, and a sumb drive.
Speaker 1: And on that thumb drive there was malware. Now we
Speaker 1: don't know the nature of that. That could be literally
Speaker 1: anything an accident to something much more sinister. You know, Sarah,
Speaker 1: it strikes me that if this woman is a secret
Speaker 1: agent of some sort, she's very very bad at her
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? We just caught the Jane bond to
Speaker 1: Chinese spies and got lucky. I'm here for the Chinese
Speaker 1: US friend relations thingy and I do I have a passport,
Speaker 1: I've got two rights, and pockets full of burner phones
Speaker 1: and all sorts of I mean, that's say, you know,
Speaker 1: I'm not a spy, but that's not the way spies
Speaker 1: do it. I don't think so. Do we have any hints, Sarah,
Speaker 1: that this person might just be a whacka do? I mean,
Speaker 1: it's it's possible. We actually don't know anything more about her. Um.
Speaker 1: Federal authorities are being kind of you know, page with
Speaker 1: details at this point, as you can understand. UM. But
Speaker 1: but the truth day is, we just know she's a
Speaker 1: thirty two year old woman who was trying to enter
Speaker 1: mar Lago. But what I will say is is we've
Speaker 1: been talking about Cindy Yang for a couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: this massage parlor owner who has sort of recently rebranded
Speaker 1: herself as someone that can get Chinese executive access to
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and she's been selling that access at mar
Speaker 1: Lago and connected to the what's his name just popped
Speaker 1: out of my head? Is that the Yeah? So she
Speaker 1: runs that chain massage parlor. How does that factor into
Speaker 1: this story? She was at the Chinese American Friendship Conference. Well,
Speaker 1: actually she is, um business associates with a man who
Speaker 1: runs the US Chinese Friendship Association. Sorry, it's called the
Speaker 1: Nation's Friendship Association. It's the summit that they were holding
Speaker 1: that day was like this US China Friendship Summit summit,
Speaker 1: and Cindy Yang had been promoting that event um in
Speaker 1: recent weeks on her UM political consulting website where she
Speaker 1: sells this access um sort of saying this is a
Speaker 1: chance to meet high ranking members of Congress. Um. You know,
Speaker 1: come one, come on, come one, come all. So she
Speaker 1: runs brothels on the side and then does this as
Speaker 1: her main job, or well, we can't say that she
Speaker 1: runs brought so I can say anything. Quote you know
Speaker 1: is that she at one time owned the spa where
Speaker 1: Robert Kraft was Um was busted a couple of months
Speaker 1: so um, but she continues to own several spas in
Speaker 1: Florida that all go by the name Tokyo Jay Spa
Speaker 1: and and those spots are not related to the current bust,
Speaker 1: but they have been investigated themselves separately in recent years
Speaker 1: for similar issues law enforcements. Sarah Blastky as a reporter
Speaker 1: for the Miami Harold, I would ask my co host
Speaker 1: if you could refrain from staining our guests with your slanders.
Speaker 1: I would appreciate it. Uh. Now, Sarah, question on the
Speaker 1: whole chain of massage parlors there our question has been
Speaker 1: why are the super rich in some cases going to
Speaker 1: like low rent strip mall. You know, Robin tugs is
Speaker 1: the course term, and I hate to use it, but
Speaker 1: do we have any idea why that's the place of
Speaker 1: choice for the rich and powerful? I think that's the
Speaker 1: question and everyone has been asking, and if you know
Speaker 1: the answer, please tell me off the air that story.
Speaker 1: So if I had billions of dollars, I wouldn't be,
Speaker 1: you know, schluffing into some strip mall. Okay, so, but
Speaker 1: so you since you're in the area, everybody is wondering
Speaker 1: why the owner of the Patriots on the day of
Speaker 1: an important game, why a different professional golfer, wire different
Speaker 1: billionaire all got busted there? It doesn't make sense. I
Speaker 1: mean to give you this straight answer here. What we've
Speaker 1: heard from experts is that massage parlors are incredibly safe
Speaker 1: places for a john to get sexual favors. And the
Speaker 1: reason is it's really hard for someone to pose. For
Speaker 1: an undercover cop to pose as a massage parlor missus,
Speaker 1: I mean, how would they get in, how would they
Speaker 1: establish that? You know, It's just it's it's much harder
Speaker 1: than say an undercover cops standing on the street soliciting
Speaker 1: right or sending an ad on the Internet saying meet
Speaker 1: me at this hotel. That makes perfect sense. Okay, But
Speaker 1: but there's gotta be something about that particular one. I mean,
Speaker 1: if that area is like any other urban area, I'm
Speaker 1: aware of their Yelp previews, there are hundreds of them,
Speaker 1: and how they all ended up with that same one
Speaker 1: just seems odd to me. Oh, I agree. And you know,
Speaker 1: if it weren't for that, we wouldn't know anything about
Speaker 1: Cyndi Yang. And so she may just be the most
Speaker 1: unlucky woman in the world that formerly owned a spa.
Speaker 1: Whereas this guy, Robert Craft just happened to get busted.
Speaker 1: We really don't know what drew him there. On Sarah
Speaker 1: Blaski with the Miami Herald, Sarah, great job. You really
Speaker 1: enjoyed talking with you. Thanks a Milian, thanks for having me.
Speaker 1: You see, I think I think she enjoyed us at first,
Speaker 1: and she tired of my act. Yes, your act I
Speaker 1: think is correct. Near Slanders
