Pompeo suggests Mar-a-Lago breach tied to Chinese espionage
CNN ^ | Apr. 5, 2019 | Zachary Cohen

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said Friday that the recent arrest of Yujing Zhang, the woman who allegedly breached security at President Donald Trump's private Florida club while carrying Chinese passports and a flash drive containing malware, is an example of the threat Beijing poses to the US.

Pompeo declined to provide additional details related to that claim during the interview on "CBS This Morning," but did say, "I think this tells the American people the threat that China poses, the efforts they're making inside the United States, not only against government officials but more broadly."

CNN reported on Wednesday that the FBI had begun investigating the possibility that the incident at Trump's Mar-a-Lago property was an espionage effort.

I can believe it for sure..if Schiff and the other commie dems want to investigate something useful for once, how about investigate this, find out who this woman is, who paid her to do this, and what was on that flash drive..the commie left is always bitching about Russia, the real threat is China

How about the Hillary private server breach? Is he the least bit concerned about that? It had Top Secret info that was hacked.

Well with the Chinese People’s Liberation Army showing up in Venezuela last Sunday they certainly are on the move in North and South America.....they use their people all over the world to sneak and peak and rob what they will.

Pompeo engaging in some gas-lighting here.

Maybe the Dims have asked the Chicoms for assistance in finding something ... anything ... on Trump. Has BarryO visited them lately? He may be trying to cover all the bases—he’s talking to the Germcoms today.

Or maybe he’s looking for President Trump’s father’s German birth certificate. Lol

I do not trust this man's words. He is big-time Deep State. I like him less than Tillerson, and I wouldn't have thought that possible. Trump needs to be careful about taking advice from certain quarters.
