The number of Chinese migrants apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border has increased significantly over the past two years, prompting concern from some lawmakers over national security and border policy. Data from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) indicates that encounters with Chinese migrants at the southwest border surged from less than 24,000 in 2023 to approximately 36,500 in 2024. This trend has drawn attention from the House Homeland Security Committee, led by Republicans, who attribute the rise to the Biden-Harris government’s weak border policies.
Tennessee Republican Mark Green, chairman of the committee, argues the “unprecedented number of Chinese nationals now illegally crossing our border is driven by the Biden and Harris policy of mass catch-and-release.”
“One chief patrol agent told my committee last year that, in his experience, the vast majority of Chinese nationals are coming for ‘work or a better life,’ which is not a valid ground for claiming asylum,” he said. “Yet, the majority are still being released into the interior anyway.”
Border crossings from various nationalities have risen, but those from China stand out, as China is an adversary state that could be using migration flows to undermine the U.S. or even embed spies within the country.

Militant transgender activists released insects to disrupt a conference of lesbians, gays, and bisexuals who are critical of transgender ideology, leading to the evacuation of the event venue. Security detained several individuals following an incident at the UK LGB Alliance conference in London on Friday, October 11.
The event, featuring transgender critical gay and lesbian speakers, was disrupted by a group of activists who released insects in the venue. Authorities responded quickly, and conference attendees were temporarily relocated to the lobby.

Four individuals linked to the disruption were taken into custody, though it is suspected that several others evaded capture. Though not all of the attackers are confirmed to be transgender, several activists seemed to present themselves as such.
The LGB Alliance, a charity focused on supporting gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals, without transgenderism stealing focus, organized the ‘Our Lives! Our Future!’ conference where the attack took place.
Attacks on those opposed to transgender ideology are no longer uncommon in the Western world. For instance, in France, pro-trans activists set off an explosive device in Lyon to disrupt a talk by feminist and trans-critical activist Marguerite Stern in September.
In the United States, radical transgenders like Audrey Hale in Tennesee have gone further. Hale murdered six people, most of them children, at a Christian school in 2023.
Another transgender attempted a mass shooting at a church in Houston earlier this year.

The North Carolina State Board of Elections is probing allegations of voter registrationfraud, according to a Brunswick County elections official. Sara LaVere, director of the Brunswick County Board of Elections, stated that 18 individuals contacted her office about not filling out forms submitted under their names.
“We noticed some information that was different than what we had on record, an address, Social Security number, so we sent a letter to those voters asking them to complete that information,” LaVere explained. “The [fraudulent] state voter registration forms appear to come from a voter registration drive.”
“The first thing I want to point out is, you know, we use words like ‘anomalies,’ ‘suspicion,’ and everything else because we try to be PC, I guess. But this is fraud, outright fraudulent behavior,” added Hamilton County Board of Elections member Alex Triantafilou.
Data suggest the 2020 election featured a significant amount of mail-in ballot fraud, with potentially one in five votes cast being fraudulent.
NO ACTION?
Brunswick County election officials have alerted the state’s board of elections but have not yet received a response regarding the investigation’s progress. State officials have not commented on whether there are suspects or arrests.
One local resident in Leland, North Carolina, Shelley Gentner, reported receiving a letter from the county Board of Elections in August. The letter requested validation of her voter information, accompanied by a registration form containing incorrect personal details and a forged signature.
“I’m like, ‘Okay, someone has signed my name on an application. It’s not my signature. It’s not me,’” Gentner said.
Such an act is illegal under North Carolina law, potentially resulting in a Class I felony.
Election integrity concerns have been compounded by aggressive voter registration efforts and the chaos caused by Hurricane Helene.
Ohio is also experiencing election integrity issues, with numerous counties investigating voter registration fraud. In Hamilton County, inconsistencies were found in voter registration applications, including one under the name of the late Henry Kissinger.

Trevor Noah, former host of The Daily Show, has compared radical Islamic terrorism in Israel to the American revolutionaries and the Boston Tea Party. Noah made his comments during a discussion with far-left writer Ta-Nehisi Coates.
Noah questioned the removal of historical “context” from discussions of terror attacks against Israelis. “If you remove America’s history… then it’s like, yeah, those people who fought against the British, they were terrorists,” Noah said.
“I mean, you can call it, like, yeah, the Boston Tea Party. That’s terrorism. If you remove the context, everything has no context.”
While American surprise attacks on British forces and attacks against Americans loyal to Britain did take place during the American Revolution, the mass murder of non-combatant civilians, including children, was incredibly rare.
Trevor Noah has espoused extreme-left talking points for years, including in 2016, when he championed women with the Zika virus aborting their babies infected with microcephaly. The South African immigrant bizarrely compared abortions to black people telling white people they could not wear sunscreen.

President Donald J. Trump is suspending his golfing activities due to security concerns. This decision follows conversations with federal agents, including Ronald Rowe, the Acting Director of the Secret Service, and officials from the Director of National Intelligence’s office, who expressed their inability to ensure his safety on golf courses.
They noted the difficulty in securing Trump adequately at golf courses, particularly those near public roads, after an incident in September involving an attempt to target Trump while he was golfing in Florida. The Democrat donor involved in the incident, Ryan Routh, was heavily tied to Ukraine and attempted to help the country recruit foreign fighters after its full-scale invasion by Russia in 2022. He has been charged with the attempted assassination but has pleaded not guilty.
Trump, known for his frequent golfing outings, reportedly expressed a strong desire to continue the activity. However, he was advised that considerable additional security would be necessary to mitigate potential threats.
The Secret Service had previously raised similar concerns about the risks associated with Trump’s golf outings during his presidency. Former officials indicated that these outings posed security challenges, as long-range lenses could expose him to danger.
Trump’s security challenge during golf outings is compounded by the fact that he no longer receives the same level of protection as a sitting president.
So far, there have been two major attempts on Trump’s life during the presidential campaign, including when he was shot by Thomas Matthew Crooks in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July.
Other reports have claimed that multiple assassination teams, some linked to Iran, are also targeting Trump. The Trump campaign has now requested military aircraft and other measures in the final month of the 2024 campaign in response to the heightened threat.

A train carrying Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) from Strasbourg, France, to Brussels, Belgium, was evacuated on Thursday after an apparent explosion, causing significant disruption. The 2:57 PM Eurostar train, which was specially chartered by the European Parliament, had just left Strasbourg when passengers were evacuated back to the station’s main hall.
Emmanuel Foulon, a Belgian parliamentary assistant, reportedhearing an “explosion,” with Pelle Geertsen, a Danish official, describing the evacuation as “chaotic.” According to TER Grand Est, the regional rail network, smoke was seen coming from the train, leading to the suspension of incoming and outgoing traffic.
The European Parliament confirmed the incident, claiming a “technical issue,” and said its services were coordinating with authorities to organize alternative transportation for the MEPs and staffers. Eurostar stated that the station’s fire brigade intervened promptly, ensuring all 740 passengers were evacuated safely.
Despite the disruption, there were no reported injuries. One staffer on the scene mentioned seeing smoke but confirmed that “everyone’s fine.” MEPs and staffers waited at the station while some opted to take taxis. Bas Eickhout, co-chair of the Greens, made light of the delay, noting it gave him time to catch up with colleagues.

Despite denials or attempts to minimize late-term abortions by some in the media and the Democratic Party, third-trimester abortions are taking place across the United States, a new op-ed warns. Emma Camp, the assistant editor at Reason magazine, writes in the Atlantic: “It’s true that third-trimester abortions are rare. But they do happen… Colorado, which is home to clinics that perform third-trimester abortions, recorded 137 third-trimester abortions in 2023.”
“That’s only one state—eight other states, plus Washington, D.C., have no restrictions on third-trimester abortions,” Camp notes, observing that just minutes from her own D.C. office, an abortionist clinic is offering abortions up to almost 32 weeks, while another in nearby Bethesda, Maryland, will kill unborn children up to 35 weeks. Thirty-seven weeks is considered full-term, and babies born as prematurely as 21 weeks can survive.
“Those who support such expansive abortion laws tend to argue that third-trimester abortions are the result of a devastating medical diagnosis. In many cases that’s true, but it is not always the situation. The D.C. clinic I mentioned above confirmed by phone that it performs abortions for any reason. Data on the reasons women have later abortions are also scarce. But when The Atlantic’s Elaine Godfrey interviewed a doctor who specializes in late abortions, he estimated that about half of his patients have healthy pregnancies. Of course, some of his patients are in serious distress for other reasons; some are victims of sexual assault, or are teenagers who didn’t realize they were pregnant. This leads to another logical flaw in how the pro-abortion-rights crowd tends to frame its argument.”
Camp is concerned that Democrats such as Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz tend to downplay or deny the fact that permissive abortion policies permit late terminations or emphasize their relative rarity as a means to dismiss people’s concerns, believing that a broad pro-abortionplatform is vote-winning.
“The grim reality of later abortion is simply too much for most Americans to countenance—and reasonable policymakers should listen to them,” Camp urges, observing that “Most Americans believe that third-trimester abortions should be restricted.”
MINORITY VIEW.
Only 22 percent of Americans support late-term abortions, with just eight percent in favor of unrestricted access. Nevertheless, Camp writes, Democrats are reluctant to admit that Roe v. Wade made no demands on states to restrict late abortions.
Democrats have become increasingly pro-abortion in recent years. A mobile abortion clinic was even deployed at the Democratic National Convention this year.
Kamala Harris has falsely claimed that abortion bans killed a woman in Georgia on the campaign trail. However, the case she referenced saw a woman die due to complications from the use of an abortion pill, highlighting the dangers of abortion itself.

Hillary Clinton has released a new memoir titled Something Lost, Something Gained: Lessons on Life, Love, and Liberty, her second book focused on her electoral loss to former President Donald J. Trump. According to industry sources, the memoir sold 27,000 copies in its first week of release, a major crash from her 2017 memoir, What Happened, which sold 167,000 copies in its opening week.
Clinton emphasizes her supposedly historical achievements as “the first woman to win a presidential primary, the nomination of a major party, and the national popular vote” in her new work and brags about occasions when she “flew on Air Force One” and “dined with kings and queens.”
However, the reception of Clinton’s latest publication has been less than enthusiastic. It managed less than 20 percent of the initial sales of her 2017 memoir.
The former First Lady is continuing to intervene in the political discourse ahead of the 2024 election, in which Trump is once again running against a woman. In September, she defended her description of Trump’s 2016 supporters as “deplorable,” saying it was “bad politics” but “got at an important truth,” alleging that Trump voters are “drawn to his racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia—you name it.”
Clinton even doubled down on her past remarks, saying, “[I]f anything, ‘deplorable’ is too kind a word for the hate and violent extremism we’ve seen from some Trump supporters.”
She has also been calling for Americans to be “criminally charged” for repeating so-called Russian propaganda “boosting Trump.”

An Afghan charged with plotting an Election Day terror attack after being imported to the U.S. following the Biden-Harris government’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan previously worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, worked in a security role for the CIA in his native country. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Tawhedi passed a “multilayered screening and vetting” process, including checks against intelligence, law enforcement, and counterterrorism databases, before being paroled into the U.S.
Biden-Harris officials claim Tawhedi became radicalized just weeks after his arrival on September 9, 2021. However, they are incentivized to claim his radicalization occurred after he entered the U.S., or they would be implicated in failing to detect his terroristic intentions before importing him.
Tawhedi entered the country under “humanitarian parole” after the Biden-Harris government fast-tracked the entry of tens of thousands of Afghanmigrants. DHS initially claimed he arrived on a Special Immigrant Visa (SIV), but the State Department pushed back, saying that Tawhedi came in under humanitarian parole and applied for an SIV on arrival.
Tawhedi, based in Oklahoma, allegedly planned to target large gatherings on Election Day and was prepared to die as a “martyr” along with his juvenile brother-in-law, who was brought to the U.S. through another immigration program.
Biden-Harris Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has remained silent on the case, avoiding questions about failures in the vetting process for Afghans. Regardless, the incident raises serious concerns about how many other potential threats may be inside the U.S. due to the Democrats’ lax immigration policies.
Hundreds of would-be illegal immigrants apprehended at America’s borders have been discovered to have terrorism links. Surprisingly, more of these migrants are caught attempting to cross the northern border than the southern border.

An executive at an American subsidiary of a Chinese electric vehicle (EV) firm made significant donations to the election campaign for Joe Biden—and later Kamala Harris—after her company received financial backing from the U.S. government. Ke Li, president of BYD Americas, contributed $33,400 to what was originally the Biden Victory Fund, now renamed the Harris Victory Fund. Additionally, Li made two $3,300 donations to the Biden campaign, now the Harris campaign.
BYD Americas is one of the primary beneficiaries of the Inflation Reduction Act‘s electric vehicle tax credit, despite the Biden-Harris government’s insistence that the subsidy is meant to boost American EV production. In addition, Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) awarded BYD a nearly $1 billion no-bid contract for masks during the coronavirus pandemic despite the company’s lack of background in manufacturing protective equipment at the time. As shown by state records, Li contributed $50,000 to Newsom’s gubernatorial campaigns in 2018 and 2022.
A subsidiary of the Chinese-based and owned multinational BYD Company, BYD Americas doesn’t actually sell passenger cars in the United States. Instead, its primary Western markets include Latin America and Europe. The American subsidiary aims to open a new manufacturing plant in Mexico by 2026 that will produce 150,000 electric cars a year. Despite being subsidized by U.S. taxpayers, these cars will mostly be sold in Latin American markets and not in the U.S.
BYD Company is involved with China’s Belt and Road Initiative and receives subsidies from the Chinese government. Concerns over espionage led Congress to investigate BYD and other Chinese vehicle manufacturers earlier this year.
