Report Finds More Chinese Military-Aged Men are Crossing the Southern Border Than Ever Before
An alarming number of Chinese military-aged men have entered the United States illegally since President Joe Biden took office in 2021. In March alone, the number of Chinese migrants surged by 8,500 percent compared to March 2021.
A private social network run by a self-identified Chinese government agent provides resources for illegal immigrants to enter the United States and evade border authorities, as uncovered by a Daily Caller News Foundation (DCNF) investigation.
The network is known as the “American Self-Guided Tour Channel” and it is a Chinese-language Telegram group with over 8,000 members. The channel serves both as a discussion forum for Chinese migration into the U.S. and as a hub for providing documents and information on specific routes into the country.

Documents in the channel identify gaps in the U.S. border wall, instruct Chinese nationals on how to answer questions from Border Patrol agents, and provide scripts for requesting asylum. The channel is overseen by an individual who promotes Chinese Communist Party propaganda, bans users who dissent from the Party line, and identifies himself as a Chinese police officer.
Despite the Biden administration’s claims of taking decisive action to secure the border through the use of executive powers, these measures seem to be more about creating a perception of action, especially as illegal immigration remains a top concern for Americans.
Mainstream media outlets have described Biden’s actions against immigration as allowing the president to suspend asylum claims between ports of entry when there are an average of 2,500 crossings a day over seven days. This threshold has reportedly been met in the past week. But even these same outlets have admitted that this threshold has already been met at least once, the number of border crossers has increased by about 25 percent since Biden’s action to “suspend entry” and Border Patrol is still being forced to release those crossing illegally into the United States.
Biden’s executive action limiting migrants who can claim asylum went into effect at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday, June 5. This still amounts to over a million illegal crossings per year, not including those entering through legal points or those brought in through a migrant sponsorship program.
Additionally, parts of the Biden administration’s new rule that haven’t been extensively reported include protections from deportation for “undocumented” spouses of U.S. citizens and inadequate background checks for unaccompanied migrant juveniles.
Chinese migrants “disillusioned” about China
The huge spike in Chinese people making the journey across the Darien Gap, the mountainous and densely forested region between Panama and Colombia – now so popular it is known in Mandarin as “zouxian,” or walking the line – has been driven by China’s Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) lockdowns, increasingly rigid rule and the recent flatlining of China’s economy.
“There has been a downturn in the Chinese economy. People have become unemployed, and there’s discontentment about the government’s tight policies,” said Min Zhou, a professor of sociology at the University of California, Los Angeles.
More than 37,000 Chinese citizens were arrested for illegally crossing the southern border in 2023, nearly 10 times the total in 2022 and more than double that of the entire previous decade.
“The Chinese migrants are particularly vulnerable,” says Giuseppe Loprete, head of mission in Panama for the United Nations’ International Organization for Migration, which provides information for migrants to cross the Darien Gap safely. “They are seen as more wealthy, and so they can be targeted. The language problem also means that if something happens, it’s more difficult for them to access medical attention.”
According to Zhou, this wave of undocumented Chinese migrants differs from the migration wave of the 1980s and 1990s.
“They are now coming from all over the country. They are skilled. Some are college graduates,” Zhou warned.

French Catholic Teacher Asked Schoolgirls to Pose Nude ‘For Palestine’
Martin G., a teacher at a private Catholic high school in the Drôme region, is under investigation for “attempted corruption of minors” for asking his schoolgirls to pose nude “against the war in Palestine.”
The 45-year-old Martin G., a substitute teacher of literature, “allegedly suggested that pupils pose naked against the war in Palestine and post the photo on their networks,” Valence public prosecutor Laurent de Caigny told the press.
The matter was referred to the public prosecutor’s office by the school management. Marc G. had already been fired on May 17 following several complaints from parents, according to French news outlet La Depeche.
Contacted by Libération, Marc G. described himself as a “fervent Catholic, comedian and pacifist,” and said he wanted to “encourage reflection on Pentecost.”
Just over a month later, on the morning of Monday, June 24, the teacher was summoned to the offices of the Crest Gendarmerie Company to be placed in police custody. He was released in the evening, pending further investigations. A psychiatric examination has also been requested.
Lawsuit on Behalf of Vaccine-injured Seeks to Strike Down ‘Unconstitutional’ PREP Act
A lawsuit filed Tuesday seeks to strike down the PREP Act — the federal law that granted legal immunity to companies such as Pfizer and Moderna for injuries caused by their COVID-19 vaccines and other COVID-19 countermeasures.
The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division, alleges the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act violates the U.S. Constitution and the Administrative Procedure Act, which governs how federal agencies develop and issue regulations.
Plaintiffs in the suit include the nonprofit Moms for America and individual plaintiffs who were injured by a COVID-19 vaccine, or whose loved one suffered injury or death from a COVID-19 vaccine.
According to the complaint, “This case is about the government’s failure to resolve conflicts involving Americans killed or grievously harmed while receiving healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic.”
Defendants are the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration, HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra and President Joe Biden.
“As even The New York Times has recently acknowledged,” Jeff Childers, attorney for the plaintiffs, told The Defender, “too many Americans have been injured by the COVID vaccines and other rushed treatments, and now have no recourse, no help and no support. They can’t sue anybody, thanks to PREP.”
“PREP was poorly conceived, badly executed, and gave far too much power to unelected bureaucrats and executive agencies,” he added.
Childers wrote on Substack today that the PREP Act should “be crushed and burned to a cinder in the incinerator of history’s worst ideas.”
The lawsuit asks the court to declare the PREP Act unconstitutional and to declare that the HHS secretary’s actions in implementing the act violate the Administrative Procedure Act.
The suit also asks the court to declare that the plaintiffs can sue companies like Pfizer and Moderna in federal and state courts. It also seeks compensation for attorney fees.
COVID revealed how bad PREP Act is for Americans
In 2005, Congress passed the PREP Act in a defense appropriations bill after then-President George W. Bush gave a “passionate speech about the nation’s lack of preparation for biowarfare and pandemics,” Childers told The Defender.
The PREP Act authorizes the HHS secretary to declare that “a disease or other health condition or other threat to health constitutes a public health emergency.” It also grants a “covered person” immunity from legal liability for all claims for loss relating to the administration or use of “countermeasures,” such as drugs, biological products, medical devices and vaccines.
“Before COVID,” Childers said, “it was barely used.”
Kim Mack Rosenberg, general counsel for Children’s Health Defense, told The Defender the COVID-19 pandemic has “shined a bright light” on the PREP Act.
“I think it is safe to say,” she said, “most Americans had no idea that as COVID vaccines were developed and rolled out at ‘warp speed’ — and in many instances mandated or taken by individuals based on fear-mongering — and as medications such as remdesivir were forced on many patients, that if they were harmed or died as a result of these interventions they would be essentially left with no remedy.”
The PREP Act set up the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) court where those injured by COVID-19 countermeasures can bring their claims.
Injuries related to vaccines that are not considered countermeasures to a public health emergency are handled by the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program and its court, according to the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986.
Childers called the CICP court an “unconstitutional shadow court” in which “a secret bureaucracy denies 99% of claims and awards the ‘lucky few’ with pennies on the dollar.”
As of June 1, CICP had received 13,773 claims and issued decisions for only 3,363 of those claims. The program denied 3,271 of the claims.
Thirteen of the claims awarded were for injuries suffered from a COVID-19 vaccine. Less than $10,000 was awarded for each of the claims, with the total payout for all 13 claims amounting to less than $50,000.
“In other words,” he said, “PREP cuts normal Constitutional courts out of the process, replacing them with a poor, unconstitutional substitute.”
PREP has already done “massive damage,” Childers said, “by turning normal commercial incentives inside-out and deleting due process.”
He added, “We must get help to millions of people discarded by the system, and prevent this disaster from ever happening again.”
The Florida lawsuit calls out CICP’s “breathtakingly short” one-year statute of limitations for:
“Injuries caused by unknown, unknowable, and non-existent vaccine products and technologies. Even to receive program compensation, the Act requires causation to be proved based on established science for those same novel products and technologies. Most medical studies take years to conduct, be drafted, be peer-reviewed, and to be published. It is irrational to believe that a person taking a covered countermeasure could possibly have access to published medical/scientific studies within the one-year statute of limitation.”
Lawsuit is 1 of 3 suits challenging PREP Act
Childers’ lawsuit is one of three active cases challenging the PREP Act, according to attorney Ray Floreswho on May 31 filed a separate lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD), which oversaw the development and distribution of the drug under Operation Warp Speed.
In addition to the suits filed by Childers and Flores, attorney Aaron Siri in October 2023 sued HHSand other government agencies on behalf of React19 — an advocacy group whose 36,000-plus members were injured by the COVID-19 vaccines — and eight vaccine-injured individuals.
Flores told The Defender, “The PREP Act and the Department of Defense’s Operation Warp Speed are indeed acts of war on our own — hundreds of thousands of civilian casualties, violations of the Nuremberg Code, and essentially no monetary recourse for their experimenting on humanity at large.”
Flores added, “I applaud Mr. Siri and Mr. Childers for raising awareness with the public, with the courts, on Capitol Hill and in the press.”
When the Defender reached out to HHS for comment on the lawsuit, an HHS spokesperson who chose to remain anonymous said the agency cannot comment on ongoing litigation.
The Defender reached out to the White House for comment on the suit but did not receive a response by deadline.

British Prime Minister: U.K. Teens Will be Cut Off From Banks if They Refuse National Service
British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak recently issued a warning to teenagers in the United Kingdom who refuse to take part in his controversial election promise of mandatory national service.
“Young people who refuse to do National Service could lose their access to finance,” Rishi Sunak has said. The prime minister also suggested they could have their driving licenses removed, adding that there are “all sorts of things” countries across Europe can do to ensure young people take part in mandatory national service. “Whether that is looking at driving licenses or their access to finance or all sorts of other things, that’s the right thing to do,” Sunak said.
Sunak threatened the draconian measures during an election “Question Time” special on BBC1.However, he so far failed to say how he will force young people to participate in the scheme, which would see them volunteer with community groups or join the armed forces.
Under the National Service plan, which was announced by the prime minister at the start of the election campaign last month, every 18-year-old in the country would have to either join the military or spend one weekend a month carrying out community service. Sunak insisted that the program would provide young people with life-changing opportunities and real-world skills and would help create a “shared sense of purpose among our young people and a renewed sense of pride in our country.” National Service in the U.K., which was previously introduced during World War I and World War II, was ended in 1960.
A pilot version of the program is planned to be launched in September of next year if the Conservatives remain in power. It is expected to cost British taxpayers around £2.5 billion ($3.19 billion) a year.

The National Service is one of the key announcements made by the Tories during the general election campaign. The Tory manifesto promised a “year-long full-time placement in the armed forces or cyber defense” for 30,000 18-year-olds, while others will be forced to volunteer for one weekend each month with organizations such as the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI).
The military service option promises to be “competitive and paid, so our armed forces recruit and train the brightest and the best.” The policy is aimed at shoring up support among the older and more patriotic Conservative base. But the party has come unstuck since announcing the plans, with ministers repeatedly refusing to say how it will work and how 18-year-olds will be forced to take part.
Foreign office minister Anne-Marie Trevelyan even suggested parents could be punished on behalf of their children if the young ones refused to participate.
National Service re-introduction was drawn up in secret
According to the Daily Mail, the plan to reintroduce national service was drawn up in secret by Sunak and his close advisers.
In the confidential 40-page plan, the advisers argued that the growing international threats posed by countries such as Russia and China needed to be addressed by ramping up the U.K. Armed Forces as did the listlessness of many young adults. Nearly 750,000 18 to 24-year-olds are currently out of work and this age group is disproportionately represented in the criminal justice system.
The civic roles would include supporting flood defenses and communities during natural disasters, the U.K.’s National Health Service (NHS) support roles, fire safety work or signing up for the charity RNLI or Mountain Search and Rescue.
Meanwhile, Sunak’s proposed scheme has already been heavily criticized by opposition parties. “This is not a plan. It is a review which could cost billions and is only needed because the Tories hollowed out the armed forces to their smallest size since Napoleon,” a Labour spokesman stated last month. Other members of the opposition party have accused Sunak of trying to get 18-year-olds to fix the problems that the government has created.
Some critics point out that there are other areas that Sunak can improve. “This ill-thought-out conscription scheme will increase pressure on defense and waste money,” the former head of the Royal Navy, Admiral Lord West, who was first sea lord from 2002 to 2006, wrote, adding: “Rather than enhancing our defense capability, it would further reduce it.”
Lib Dem education spokesperson Munira Wilson said: “He is more interested in taking away young people’s bank accounts if they don’t do National Service than investing in their education.”
National Service in Europe varies from country to country. In Switzerland, men must serve for 21 weeks from the age of 19; in Denmark, Estonia and Finland, it is up to a year from 18. Norway is one of few places worldwide where women are also called up. Globally, around 85 countries have some form of obligatory military training. The longest period of required service is 11 years for North Korean men.

Listen: Planned Parenthood Staffers Laugh on 911 Call for Woman Bleeding After Abortion
RICHMOND, Virginia (LifeSiteNews) — Planned Parenthood staffers were caught on audio laughing during a 911 call for a woman who suffered a perforated uterus because of a botched abortion, Operation Rescue has revealed.
On Wednesday, the group published the details and recording of an April 24 call from a Planned Parenthood location in Richmond, Virginia, for a woman who, according to the caller, was “currently having a termination procedure done and, it looks, appears to be a possible uterine perforation.” A second staffer who took over the call described the woman as “not currently actively bleeding” but requiring continued monitoring for bleeding and to ensure her vitals remained stable.
During the call, unidentified individuals in the room can clearly be heard laughing. The object of their mirth is not possible to determine from the audio, but appears to indicate, at a minimum, that the Planned Parenthood staff did not feel particularly troubled by one of their clients being in a potentially life-threatening situation.
Notably, the Planned Parenthood representative also asks the dispatcher, “if you could just not use your sire- your, you know, your sirens, the noise.” The dispatcher responds that she is not permitted to tell emergency vehicles how to use their sirens.
“This facility has been cited numerous times on inspection reports, including failures in the areas of quality management, filth, and botched abortions,” Operation Rescue notes. “In another case like this emergency, a woman suffered an incomplete abortion – her baby still alive inside her for weeks until a hospital performed a second abortion.”
Last month, pro-life leader and former abortion industry insider Abby Johnson told LifeSiteNews that her upcoming film Unthinkable will highlight firsthand accounts corroborating that such disregard for women’s welfare is not uncommon in the abortion industry.
“If they could hear the stories from these women, and they will, if they see Unthinkable they will hear just the degradation of these women while they’re laying on the tables for their abortion, the way that they are talked about by the staff, the doctors in particular,” she said. “The way their bodies are made fun of and talked about, just how devalued they are.”
Despite countless cases of women harmed by abortion and documented health and safety violations at abortion centers across the United States, national Democrats continue to push legislation that would, among other things, forbid states from subjecting the abortion industry to health and safety regulations, such as admitting privileges and informed-consent requirements.
The Biden administration currently allows abortion pills to be distributed by mail (in violation of federal law), effectively cutting medical oversight out of the chemical abortion process entirely. Earlier this month, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to intervene in the case.
