Authorities arrested a University of Michigan scholar with ties to the Chinese Communist Party for her involvement in allegedly smuggling a biological pathogen into the United States that could be used as a terrorism weapon to devastate U.S. food crops, according to a federal filing unsealed Tuesday. Prosecutors have charged the scholar, 33-year-old Yunqing Jian, and her boyfriend, 34-year-old Zunyong Liu, with conspiring to smuggle Fusarium graminearum, a crop-destroying fungus that produces toxins harmful to humans and livestock, into the United States. Investigators discovered evidence of Jian's membership in the CCP and say that she received funding from a CCP-backed foundation to conduct postdoctoral research on the pathogen, the Detroit News reported based on the filing. The arrest comes as the Trump administration has ramped up its efforts to counter CCP influence on American college campuses and beyond, tightening visa restrictions for Chinese researchers and cracking down on CCP-linked Confucius Institutes. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced last week that the Trump administration will "aggressively revoke visas for Chinese students, including those with connections to the Chinese Communist Party or studying in critical fields." The administration will also ramp up "scrutiny of all future visa applications from the People's Republic of China and Hong Kong," Rubio said. France saw a record number of arrests following a major sporting event after deadly scenes broke out following Paris Saint-Germain’s victory over Inter Milan in the Champions League final on Saturday. Two people lost their lives, including a 17-year-old boy who was stabbed to death in Dax and a 20-year-old who was mowed down by a car in Paris. Several others were injured as a car crashed into the crowd in Grenoble. According to a report from Le Figaro, at least 192 people were injured during the chaos, including seven firefighters and 22 police officers, one of whom is said to be in a coma. The paper, citing police sources, said that 559 arrests were made throughout the evening into the early hours of Sunday, including 491 in Paris. This dwarfed previous sports-related violence, such as the 227 arrests following the 2022 World Cup final. The scenes sparked harsh condemnation from political leaders, including Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau, who condemned the “barbarians” and “thugs” who took to the streets following the soccer match. KYIV, Ukraine (AP) – A Ukrainian drone attack has destroyed more than 40 Russian planes deep in Russia’s territory, a Ukrainian security official told The Associated Press on Sunday, while Russia pounded Ukraine with missiles and drones a day before the two sides meet for a new round of direct talks in Istanbul. On Sunday, one of Joe Biden’s illegals attacked Jews in Boulder, Colorado, during a walk to call attention to the hostages still being held by Hamas terrorists. The suspect, Mohamed Sabry Soliman, who is Egyptian and in the country on an expired visa, is facing multiple charges and is being held on $10M bail. Soliman is facing hate crime, murder, assault, and other charges following what the FBI is calling a “targeted terror attack.” Further reports say that during interviews with police, he said he wanted to “kill all Zionist people,” and “wished they were all dead.” Additionally he said that he would “do it again.” New data showing the percentage of people not speaking German at home in Austria underlines just how massive the demographic transformation has been in the country, according to a Hungarian economist. “In some districts of Vienna,” his post continues, “the situation is already dramatic: in Brigittenau and Margareten, the proportion of people who do not speak German in the family environment is over 80%.” The data comes at the same time as Austrian politician, Herbert Kickl, the leader of the Austrian Freedom Party (FPÖ), spoke at CPAC Hungary. He warned of the massive demographic transformation taking place in his country and across Europe, with poll after poll showing a majority of Europeans are opposed to this transformation — yet remain nearly powerless to stop it. “What is happening in Europe is no coincidence. It is the result of an agenda, a consciously controlled ethnic and cultural transformation. Because migration is not being stopped, no, it is being organized, promoted and glorified. NGOs are not noble aid organizations, they are part of smuggling networks with a political and ideological mission,” said Kickl. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/shocking-data-shows-massive-demographic-transformation-europe
