Hosting the Trump inaugural ball was the National Cmte of Asian American Republicans, whose executive director, “Cliff” Li – an associate of massage parlor owner Cindy Yang – says he knows where the unreported money went, “but I don’t want to tell you.” WHAT?!

“Cliff” Li – host of the Trump inaugural ball and an associate of massage parlor owner Cindy Yang – says he knows where the unreported money went, “but I don’t want to tell you.”
Excellent read by @luluramadan.

Donors to the dubious Trump inaugural ball hosted by an entity connected to massage parlor owner Cindy Yang included Saipan Casino, which was raided by the FBI in Mar 2017 and whose board members include Trump campaign advisor James Woolsey.

SCOOP ●➤ Trump’s message to then-CBP head and now acting DHS Secretary McAleenan: Close the southwestern border to block asylum-seekers from entering the US, contrary to law, and if you're sent to jail as a result, I'll pardon you.
by @anniekarni #Maddow nyti.ms/2ZhmvEC
The @GOP stand idly by as Trump regularly abuses his power and obstructs justice.
On that same trip to Calexico, Trump told border agents to break the law and lie to judges.

NEW: Trump's White House tried to pressure US immigration authorities into releasing immigrant detainees onto the streets of “sanctuary cities,” including in @SpeakerPelosi's district, as retaliation against Trump’s political foes.

This is insane.
#Maddow wapo.st/2Ga7ziB?tid=ss…
The Trump White House believed it could punish Democrats — including Pelosi — by busing and releasing ICE detainees into their districts, according to 2 DHS whistleblowers who independently reported the Stephen Miller-led busing plan to Congress.
#Maddow
“The extent of this admin’s cynicism and cruelty cannot be overstated,” said @SpeakerPelosi spox @AshleyEtienne09. “Using human beings — including little children — as pawns in their warped game to perpetuate fear and demonize immigrants is despicable.”

Barr is spreading dangerous conspiracy theories. But there is a remedy. Barr can be impeached for unbecoming conduct [covered under high crimes and misdemeanors].

Cindy Yang opposed crackdown on foreigners attending Trump fundraisers, ex-boss Chris Li says — by @MiamiHerald

apple.news/AfO4ozwjLRAKlL…
When Li “Cindy” Yang started volunteering as a fundraiser for an Asian-American GOP political group, she was a whiz-bang event organizer with a gift for making connections.
But Yang seemed to have a tenuous grasp of laws that prevent foreign money from entering U.S. elections, according to Cliff Li, executive director of the National Committee of Asian American Republicans.

This is #CindyYang...
”Cindy Yang poses with President Donald #Trump at a fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago on March 2, 2018. She received a signed photograph. A flier for the event advertised a “reception, photo and two seats for a dinner with President Trump” for a donation of $50,000.”
#CindyYang started what would become a large chain of Tokyo Day Spas, 2007.

Cindy Yang & her family members operate the Tokyo Day Spa & Massages parlor, as well as a nail salon, at a strip mall in Palm Beach Gardens which is still in business & run by her husband, #ZubinGong.
China-born Li Yang, aka. #CindyYang, age 45. Yang, an entrepreneur who reportedly arrived in the US from China 2 decades ago, opened a chain of South Florida day spas in 2007 that included Orchids of Asia Day Spa in Jupiter, Florida, which is connected to a sex trafficking ring.

This will not be easy to explain away. A sex trafficker has presidential access. Does she have biz deals in China (a pipeline)? Does she have biz w/Trump family (Ivanka and her “spas” trademarks)?
I’m reading that she sold the spa(s) away to another woman in 2013, yet on social media posts prior to the sale, it was evident that women were being trafficked out of the location that the bust occurred, during the time she was owner.

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft charged with two counts of soliciting prostitution in connection with a Florida spa tied to an international human trafficking ring tcpalm.com/story/news/loc…
“The tentacles of this go from here to New York to China, in Florida from here to Orange County .. this is the tip of the iceberg."

New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft charged as a 'john' in human trafficking/prostitution investigation wptv.com/news/region-n-…
Note that once again, the victims of the sex trafficking operation were not Trump's mythical women smuggled across the Mexican border in car trunks, but entered through legal ports of entry such as airports. #NoWall

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed

Two errors in the 2nd graf of Breitbart's Trump Hotel DC article:
-holdings aren't out of @realDonaldTrump's hands: trust isn't blind & he can profit from it
-Trump Org told Congress it was estimating foreign receipts—not auto donating in full
