The Miami Herald newspaper is now reporting that, as a result of this weekend’s incident regarding a Chinese visitor with malware, the Feds are expanding an existing – but up to now secret – counterintelligence probe. The investigation has apparently been running at least dating back to when Cindy Yang was allegedly selling Chinese executives access to Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago.
Feds are investigating possible Chinese spying at Mar-a-Lago and Cindy Yang
Federal authorities are investigating possible Chinese intelligence operations targeting President Donald Trump and his private Palm Beach club, Mar-a-Lago, sources familiar with the never-before-reported investigation told the Miami Herald Wednesday.
The federal counterintelligence probe was turbo-charged on Saturday when U.S. Secret Service agents arrested a Chinese woman, Yujing Zhang, after they said she tried to enter the club with a bevy of electronic devices, including a thumb drive infected with “malicious malware.”
Zhang was headed to a Mar-a-Lago event advertised on Chinese social media by Yang when she was arrested by federal authorities on charges of making a false statement to a federal officer and entering restricted property, according to a criminal complaint filed in federal court.
She told conflicting stories about wanting to use the club’s pool, as well as hoping to discuss U.S.-China economic relations with a member of the president’s family, court records say. Trump was golfing at another of his South Florida clubs during the incident.
