BREAKING: Trump has revealed his new anti-fraud program set up to reward people who expose fraud with a 1% commission on the money uncovered. "If you turn somebody in and you, let's say report and you find $1 billion, we are giving a commission to that person of 1%."

The former Delta Force operator who made it his life's work to track, identify, and hunt down human traffickers.

Jeff Tiegs spent more than 25 years in Army special operations, from Ranger private to Green Beret to Delta Force operator and troop commander, with combat in Panama, Iraq, and Afghanistan and a Silver Star for valor in Iraq.

After The Unit, he pointed the same hunt at a different enemy. Through Guardian Group and then Skull Games, the nonprofit he founded, veterans and analysts scrape ads, slang, emojis, and open-source networks to find women and children being sold and the people selling them.

The work runs on volunteer hunts and a Survivor-Hunter track that trains women who got out of the trade to work the intel beside the veterans. Early reporting on Skull Games credited the effort with freed victims, recovered missing children, and dozens of predator arrests, in both cities and small towns.

Tiegs has said he fought al-Qaeda, ISIS, and the Taliban, and that the people preying on girls are a worse enemy.

🚨Do not travel to China

The US has updated its travel advisory for China with a high risk warning for unlawful detention. Which should have been done a long time ago

The Chinese government can arbitrarily ban anyone from leaving the country. Two Americans Min Zin and seismologist Youlin Chen have recently been detained.

So, OpenAI is warning its employees that they may be targeted by sexy spies. Not sure if its going to help.

These companies are under constant threat. Every possible method is being used to steal advanced AI.

An individual from Saudi Arabia just got caught hiding a microphone in a conference room.

Chinese hackers are attacking the companies and using bots to steal information from working models.

Now super model spies are after them as well.

Last week, a Wyoming microbiology graduate student from China was arrested as she tried to flee the country and go to China. She allegedly poisoned a colleague working on disease-treatment technology! Laptops, electronic storage devices, and documents were seized after she was caught on surveillance video rummaging through the colleague’s desk.
Alarming cases like this underscore the need to protect American taxpayer-funded research and remain vigilant against threats to U.S. innovation. https://t.co/iN2unHj41e

Chinese-made rental cars recorded Norwegian soldiers during a major military exercise in Oslo, per Dagens Næringsliv.

At least two Deepal electric cars, made by China’s Changan, stored video of soldiers getting in and out, where they drove, who they picked up, and how long they stayed at each location.

They even recorded the codes soldiers typed in to pass through military gates.

Soldiers found the footage by chance while clicking through the cars’ menus.

The cars were rented from Hertz Norway, which is owned by China’s Geely.

Despite the discovery, the cars kept being used on military grounds.

Two Chinese nationals handed over their real passports to a stranger on WeChat, got American ones back, and tried walking into the US.

Jin Fu Wei and Xiaodan Lei flew from Mexico into John Wayne Airport in California in August, presenting US passports belonging to actual American citizens. Facial recognition caught them instantly, their faces didn't match. Neither man's real name was even on the flight manifest.

Here's how it allegedly worked. A contact on WeChat arranged everything: travel to Mexico, a passport swap with an unknown person there. The men handed over their genuine Chinese passports and got American ones in return. The plan was to enter the US, then meet someone who'd swap the documents back. Wei was also carrying an expired Texas driver's license belonging to the real passport holder.

The two claim they didn't know each other before this trip, and say they had no idea who the actual American citizens were whose identities they were using. One of those passports reportedly belonged to someone with a prior arrest record.

Prosecutors aren't treating this as simple fraud. One official called it a national security concern, pointing out that foreign citizens entering under false identities raises bigger questions about who's actually crossing the border.

Both men face up to 10 years if convicted. The FBI is still trying to find out who supplied the passports in the first place.

A WeChat contact, a stranger in Mexico, and two real Americans whose identities ended up in someone else's hands.

Nine of America's top universities are under federal investigation. The target: Chinese influence over research paid for by American taxpayers.

The Labor Department announced subpoenas October 8 for Harvard, Yale, Stanford, MIT, Caltech, Brown, UC Davis, Arizona State, and Pittsburgh. The focus is J-1 visa holders, scholars and researchers brought in on exchange visas, working on federally funded projects.

The numbers stand out. These nine schools use J-1 visa holders on 61% of their federally funded research, compared to a 38% national average. VP JD Vance called that pattern "something weird" and said it's undercutting wages for American graduate students and researchers.

The Labor Department's inspector general went further, warning that the CCP is "a sophisticated adversary actively targeting American technology, intellectual property and national security interests." His message to universities: don't break the rules "to save a dollar while exposing American research to a foreign adversary."

This isn't just about Chinese scholars specifically, officials haven't said how many are even involved. It's two concerns running together: American researchers getting underpaid, and taxpayer-funded research potentially exposed to foreign influence.

No charges yet. No findings yet. Just subpoenas, and a clear signal that elite university prestige won't shield anyone from the investigation.
