New... I can confirm that the FBI arrested a Chinese national within the United States who allegedly smuggled a dangerous biological pathogen into the country.
The individual, Yunqing Jian, is alleged to have smuggled a dangerous fungus called "Fusarium graminearum," which is an agroterrorism agent, into the U.S. to research at the University of Michigan, where she works.
This fungus can cause a disease called "head blight," a disease of wheat, barley, maize, and rice, causing significant health issues in both humans and livestock. It is responsible for billions of dollars in economic losses worldwide each year.
Evidence also indicates Jian had expressed loyalty to the Chinese Communist Party and had received funding from the Chinese government for similar work on this pathogen in China.
Jianโs boyfriend, Zunyong Liu โ also charged in the complaint โ works at a Chinese university where he conducts research on the same pathogen. Liu is alleged to have first lied, then admitted, to also smuggling Fusarium graminearum into Americaโthrough the Detroit Metropolitan Airportโso that he too could conduct research the University of Michigan.
Both individuals have been charged with conspiracy, smuggling goods into the United States, false statements, and visa fraud.
This case is a sobering reminder that the CCP is working around the clock to deploy operatives and researchers to infiltrate American institutions and target our food supply, which would have grave consequences... putting American lives and our economy at serious risk.
Your FBI will continue working tirelessly to be on guard against it.
Our @FBIDetroit team did excellent work in this case partnering with @CBP.
Justice will be done.
Wow. I am shocked to learn @GovWhitmer was illiterate. Data from Wuhan showed a steep age gradient, and that it would not be killing children in droves. That was known in the spring of 2020. Sweden kept their elementary schools open. Many of us pushed for school reopenings
KAMALA HARRIS: โWhat else do we know about this population, 18-24? They are stupid! That is why we keep them in dormitories. They make really bad decisions!โ
