"Last week, the Trump administration announced $537 million in new subsidies for biofuels production. But browbeating Vietnam to purchase more ethanol subsidized by the US government is a victory for fair trade because God wants Iowa corn farmers to be rich. Condemning foreigners for not purchasing exports subsidized by the US government epitomizes the hypocrisy of Trump-style fair trade."

Lotus Blossom espionage group targets multiple industries with different versions of Sagerunex and hacking tools

The Lotus Blossom espionage group has been conducting cyber espionage campaigns targeting government, manufacturing, telecommunications, and media sectors in the Philippines, Vietnam, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. The group employs various versions of the Sagerunex backdoor, including new variants that use cloud services like Dropbox, Twitter, and Zimbra for command and control. Lotus Blossom utilizes multiple hacking tools and techniques to maintain long-term persistence in compromised networks. The attacks involve multi-stage operations, including reconnaissance, lateral movement, and data exfiltration. The group has been active since at least 2012 and continues to evolve its tactics and malware to evade detection.

"In mid-February, Trump administration leaders received a desperate warning from their diplomats posted in Vietnam, one of the most important American partners in Asia.

Workers were in the middle of cleaning up the site of an enormous chemical spill, the Bien Hoa air base, when Secretary of State Marco Rubio abruptly halted all foreign aid funding. The shutdown left exposed open pits of soil contaminated with dioxin, the deadly byproduct of Agent Orange, which the American military sprayed across large swaths of the country during the Vietnam War. After Rubio’s orders to stop work, the cleanup crews were forced to abandon the site, and, for weeks, all that was covering the contaminated dirt were tarps, which at one point blew off in the wind.

And even more pressing, the officials warned in a Feb. 14 letter obtained by ProPublica, Vietnam is on the verge of its rainy season, when torrential downpours are common. With enough rain, they said, soil contaminated with dioxin could flood into nearby communities, poisoning their food supplies.

Hundreds of thousands of people live around the Bien Hoa air base, and some of their homes abut the site’s perimeter fence, just yards from the contaminated areas. And less than 1,500 feet away is a major river that flows into Ho Chi Minh City, population 9 million.

“Simply put,” the officials added, “we are quickly heading toward an environmental and life-threatening catastrophe.”"

They received no response from Washington, according to three people familiar with the situation.

Instead, Rubio and Peter Marocco, another top Trump appointee, have not only ordered the work to stop, but they also have frozen more than $1 million in payments for work already completed by the contractors the U.S. hired."
