Hundreds of Americans Planted 'Chinese Mystery Seeds'
According to documents obtained by Motherboard from state departments of agriculture, at least hundreds, perhaps thousands of Americans planted the seeds.

New Mexico, had roughly 100 recorded seed receivers. Many of these seed receivers, regardless of location, panicked.

"About a month ago, I did receive seeds from China. I guess China because it looks like Chinese writing. I thought, 'Oh cool, maybe Burgess seeds or one of the seed companies send me some seeds.' And, umm, like a dumbass, I planted them, not knowing there was a problem," a woman in New Mexico said in a voicemail left with the state's department of agriculture in late July. "And now, I've been battling this for a couple weeks. Now, where I planted them, and I remember where I planted them, everything that's in the garden where I planted them are having a hard time and are starting to die … I really don't know what to do at this point, so could somebody call me back and give me a little bit of direction about this? I know I'm a dumbass."

Calls like this were not unusual. Some people ate the seeds, according to the documents. Some people called 911. Emergency meetings and calls were held. The USDA’s Smuggling Interdiction and Trade Compliance group (SITC), Customs and Border Protection, and the FBI began investigating.

Chinese virologist who fled to the US after claiming Beijing covered up Covid-19 vows to publish evidence PROVING the virus is manmade - and claims even non-scientists will be able to verify the data

A virologist who claimed the Chinese government covered up the coronavirus outbreak says she will produce scientific evidence the virus was man-made.

Respected Chinese virologist Dr Li-Meng Yan, who specialised in virology and immunology at the Hong Kong School of Public Health, claimed that Beijing knew about the coronavirus well before reports began to emerge.

She has since been forced to flee Hong Kong fearing her life is in danger, and appeared today on Loose Women from a secret location, revealing that the Chinese government had 'removed all her information' from government data bases.

Dr Yan claimed that reports that Covid-19 originated at a wet market in Wuhan are a 'smoke screen', and that she plans to publish a report she claims has evidence the virus is manmade.

Chinese State Media: China Must Prepare for War

China must “be prepared” for war amid escalating territorial conflicts with neighboring countries that have increased the risk of military conflict in recent months, the Chinese Communist Party newspaper Global Times argued on Friday.

In an editorial titled “China must be militarily and morally prepared for war,” Global Times editor-in-chief Hu Xijin claimed that although the Chinese people do not want war, Beijing’s worsening territorial disputes with other countries, such as India, threaten to disrupt the status quo.

China is currently engaged in “territorial disputes with several neighboring countries encouraged by the U.S. to confront China,” Hu claimed. “Some of these countries believe that the U.S. support provides them with a strategic opportunity and try to treat China outrageously. They believe that China, under the U.S.’ strategic pressure, is afraid, unwilling, or unable to engage in military conflict with them.”

The addition of other conflicts outside of South Asia, such Beijing’s illegal efforts to conquer the South China Sea – specifically its stated aim to “reunify” Taiwan, a sovereign island bordering the sea, with China by force if necessary – means that “the risk of the Chinese mainland being forced into a war has risen sharply in recent times,” according to Hu.

Disney CFO Christine McCarthy: ‘Mulan’ Concentration Camp Ties ‘Generated Issues’

Walt Disney Company Chief Financial Officer Christine McCarthy admitted in remarks on Thursday that the decision to film parts of Mulan near concentration camps for Muslims in western China had “generated a lot of publicity.”

Mulan, a live-action retelling of the 1998 animated film, tells the story of Hua Mulan, a legendary Chinese woman who allegedly lived in the Sixth Century, AD, and earned fame as an accomplished warrior in an era where women rarely played the role. Human rights activists have called for boycotting the film after its release last week revealed that, in the credits, Disney thanked local “public security” officials in Turpan, a Xinjiang city hosting concentration camps for the local Uyghur population.

China began establishing concentration camps for Uyghurs, an ethnic Turkic people with no significant cultural ties to the Han majority who control the Communist Party, and other Muslim ethnic minorities in Xinjiang in late 2017. By 2019, the Communist Party had built over 1,000 camps, according to a Reuters investigative report. The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) estimated that China had imprisoned nearly 2 million people in its concentration camps as of April 2020, though at their peak the camps reportedly housed as many as 3 million prisoners.

McCarthy did not directly address the concentration camps in her remarks Thursday, which reportedly occurred at the Bank of America Virtual 2020 Media, Communications & Entertainment Conference, but lamented that the film had created “issues” for the company. McCarthy defended the film arguing that only some of it filmed in Xinjiang – which locals call East Turkestan, but appears as “northern China” in the movie.

US Freezes Imports On Goods Made By Uighur Forced Labor In Chinese ‘Re-Education’ Camps In Xinjiang

The United States blocked four companies and a manufacturing facility located in China’s Xinjiang region Monday from shipping any of their products to the U.S. because of their suspected use of forced labor.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issued five “Withhold Release Orders” (WRO) on imports from companies that produce cotton, clothing and computer parts in the Xinjiang region of China, according to the Associated Press (AP). CBP said the Chinese government engages in “systemic human rights abuses against the Uyghur people and other ethnic and religious minorities,” according to an official statement.

'China has bought our silence with their money': Judd Apatow says Hollywood is censoring films to appease Beijing by 'completely shutting down critical content'

Hollywood is censoring films in order to avoid angering China and Saudi Arabia, director Judd Apatow says.

The filmmaker behind hits like The 40-Year-Old Virgin and The King of Staten Island says he has noticed that studios won’t take on sensitive subjects if it means being denied access to lucrative markets abroad where human rights abuses are rampant.

He said film and television companies that are doing business with countries like Saudi Arabia and China are 'just not going to criticize them, and they’re not going to let their shows criticize them.'

Apatow said there's no chance these studios will 'air documentaries that go deep into truthful areas because they just make so much money.’

He added that what is ‘much scarier’ is how ‘they have just completely shut down critical content about human rights abuses in China.’

Minus raw materials. The inputs that their economy needs come from places 5x farther than 90% of their naval assets can reach. It’s past time to let them implode. Their leaders do not deserve a seat at the table in a civilized world. Eff the NBA and Hollywood sellouts as well.

I hope Trump is addressing environmental concerns with REM mining and other issues that may allow us to decouple. I bet the Philippines is regretting Subic Bay.
