A Chinese businesswoman who was convicted of trespassing at President Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida earlier this year had been urged by her handler to target other famous figures including the Clintons and billionaire businessman Warren Buffett, court documents say.

Yujing Zhang, 33, who is scheduled to be sentenced on Nov. 22, was caught by Secret Service agents with troves of technology embedded with malware and thousands of dollars in cash after she claimed that she was at Trump's prestigious club to attend a “United Nations friendship event” that had apparently been canceled. Her bizarre behavior and backstory led to suspicions that she was a Chinese government spy, but she was not charged with espionage or related crimes.

Maybe it’s just me, but there are a heck of a lot of rich Chinese Oligarchs out there, with agendas to get insider information, and be ahead of the corruption game. I think that was this gal’s regular day-job.

I really have nothing against Chinese people, but whoever is handling student and business visas, is just not doing due diligence.

No need to target the Clintons when they already get info directly from them free of charge.

The headline suggests this person was caught at Trump’s house, and THEN asked to go after the Clintons.

Yeah, struck me the same way. Now we have the “Clinton Card “ to fret over.

DiFi had a Chinese spy as her personal escort for many years.

A former Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party was found to have $32 billion dollars in cash in his basement and 13 tons of gold.

The ChiComs fund it.

That guy (the 13 tons of gold idiot) was a ‘retired’ mayor for the city. From what I read, he’d been around for 20 years, and people suggest that if you wanted to fast-track the building of a structure (hotel, or whatever)....you had to grease this guy’s hand.

His screw-up was upon retirement, he should have hired some guy to remove that gold and cash (32 billion dollars in cash worth they say) from the house, and quickly flew the money to the Philippines or Vietnam. I think as the ‘gifts’ kept coming, he just didn’t grasp the enormous size of the stash, or the problems in keeping this a secret.

According to news....he’ll get a quick court case, and then be executed in the next two or three months.

Someone “steals” $32,000,000,000 making him the biggest thief in history and one of the wealthiest men in the world and the press isn’t even phased.

Not buying it. It was a slush fund.

Chinese press covered it...but I think the Chinese government is infuriated over the extent (amount) involved, and how he got around with all that corruption.

The story did get covered in Brit press. CNN? It might show up on execution day with the guy...otherwise, they can’t interrupt the Trump-news cycle.

He was getting $4.4 million in kickbacks every day for 20 years? Not buying it.

So you go to a known Trump location to setup spy software on Clinton and the Democrats?
Only Faux would believe that.
