The FBI charged two Chinese nationals with smuggling a dangerous fungus into the U.S. that could devastate crops and harm humans and livestock. One suspect was caught in Michigan with the pathogen hidden in tissue; the other was denied U.S. entry. The fungus can cause vomiting, liver damage, and reproductive defects. Authorities say this may be part of broader CCP efforts to infiltrate institutions and weaken U.S. national security and food systems.
