They have many kinds of seeds and many ways to plant them in our country.
We do grow our own food. China needs that food a damn sight more than we do.

Chicoms' next question: "Most excellent and honorable sir, are not America's land regions occupied?"
"Yes......As of now. It will be pleasing if you inquire again after January 21, 2021. New management quite cooperative."
I was thinking the same thing. They should have had time to determine just what they are by now.
We used to have a Dept. of Ag. that coulda sorted this out.
I think the “brushing” scam seems likely with the seeds.
One person found the seeds were identified as amaranth, coleus, and two types of mint.

That wouldn’t fit the current Red Scare narrative.
They may have determined that telling us will be helpful to Trump's campaign.
The Government is saying “do not plant them” . Thats hardly enough of a warning. How many people will just throw them out either in garbage or on the ground. Very likely that some will still sprout even though not “planted”
Isn’t it against the law for a foreign country to mail agricultural stuff willy-nilly like this? You can’t bring plants or anything like that on a flight. I remember the story of the woman who came through customs in New York City, and got gigged because she still had an apple that the stewardess had handed out to everybody on the plane, and instead of letting her just throw it away, they fined her.
Life imitates art. There was a whole Gilligan’s Island episode about this: a crate filled with radioactive seeds wash up on island. The castaways plant them...
Thurston: “Well, the mushrooms are mushrooming!”
...and hilarity ensues...
Lovey: “Yes, but the beets are beating them!”
I wonder how many seeds Diane Feinswine's long-time Chi-com spy planted for her.
Ah! “Invasion of the Body-Snatchers!”
They grow into Giant Chinese Pea Pods like “Invasion of the Wuhan Body Snatchers”
Yes keep your eyes open!
By now, shouldn’t somebody have figured out a bit more on those seeds?
In a year full of conspiracy theories this has to be one of the dumbest. There are already thousands of Chinese nationals and Chinese friendly Americans who would sell us out for chump change throughout the land. Why not discretely send them seeds to scatter instead of a silly random mailout?
