🇺🇸 ❌️ 🇨🇳 DJI drone ban passes in U.S. House — 'Countering CCP Drones Act' would ban all DJI sales in U.S. if passed in Senate
🔶️ The "Countering CCP Drones Act" is part of the United States' 2025 National Defense Authorization Act (FY25 NDAA), a major piece of yearly legislation allotting defense spending for the coming year.
🔶️ Drone maker DJI is based in China and controls over 70% of the world's drone market share, a combination that threatens U.S. lawmakers. As we first reported in April, 6% of DJI stock lies in the hands of Chinese state-owned businesses, which has led to fears of Chinese government backdoors, national security risks, and other fears of Chinese surveillance using the company's drones. And of course, there lies the more real concern for U.S. lawmakers that DJI's success would continue to strengthen the Chinese economy.
🔶️ While not as direct an attack on China as some moves associated with the U.S.-China trade war over semiconductors, the DJI ban would follow a tradition of tariffs and bans against successful Chinese companies in the U.S. Most bans affect the most commercially successful companies and entities from operation in the U.S., though lawmakers claim the goal is safety rather than a trade conflict. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently argued, "What we're focused on is only the most sensitive technology that could pose a threat to our security. We're not focused on cutting off trade, or for that matter containing or holding back China."

SEBIN detained two other young people from Vente, when they were leaving the María Corina commando
The regime of Nicolás Maduro intensifies the persecution against opposition activists. This Monday he arbitrarily detained two young people from the Vente Venezuela (VV) party when they were leaving the headquarters of the national command of the opposition leader, María Corina Machado, in Chacao.
The new victims are Ismael Gabriel González, a member of Machado's press team, and Javier Cisneros, national coordinator of Vente Joven.
Vente Venezuela reported that the young people were arrested by members of the Bolivarian Intelligence Service (SEBIN) and that they are in a situation of forced disappearance.
With these two new victims, there are five activists detained by the Maduro regime in the last 72 hours, after the arrest last Friday of three opposition leaders in Vargas state.

"This is cruelty. They are Venezuelans who are giving everything to see their country with freedom and dignity. It is criminal, pure evil, and it shows that the regime has nothing left but violence against citizens.
But instead of paralyzing or intimidating a country, what I see in Venezuela every day is that these abuses give us more reasons to fight and organize for July 28. My solidarity goes out to Jean Carlos, Luis, Juan, and their families."

"These young people are being linked to a case in which they are accused of inciting hatred and criminal association simply for supporting our candidate. [...] Some of the detainees have been denied the right to have private lawyers, in which case public defenders ask anti-Chavistas to blame Machado for violent plans as a condition for their release."

🥑 🇺🇸 🇲🇽 USDA suspends avocado inspections in Mexican state over security fears
🔶️ The USDA’s avocado inspections in Michoacan are suspended until security issues are resolved, the AP reported. Mexico makes up 89 percent of U.S. avocado imports.
🔶️ Mexico is the world’s largest producer of avocados — a staple in the diets of many Americans who love it on their toast, or made into guacamole, particularly during the Super Bowl. The United States imported a record 2.78 billion pounds of fresh avocados in 2023, with 89 percent of those imports coming from Mexico, according to the USDA.
🔶️ The State Department warns against travel to Michoacan “due to crime and kidnapping” — the same level of travel warning for five other Mexican states, including Sinaloa and Zacatecas.
