Victor Gao was Deng Xiaoping's interpreter. This is from a speech he gave in China recently. He described Beijing's strategy of taking over Taiwan in 2 minutes. It's chilling. Watch the full program here: youtube.com/watch?v=qwQ4tv…
If there is one thing we’ve learned about Chinese politics, it’s its secretive nature. Xi Jinping skipped the BRICS Summit to go to an obscure war memorial event in Shanxi without his usual entourage, while his office manager, Cai Qi, was hosting a grand memorial ceremony with…
As Xi Jinping’s grip on power weakens, one name keeps surfacing inside China’s opaque political world: Liu Yuan. The son of former president Liu Shaoqi, Liu was once sidelined by Xi and has turned down offers to lead. But now he may be back, with the backing of Party elders and…
Things are getting weird inside China’s top leadership. Xi Jinping skips the BRICS Summit, his wife disappears, the military hints at mutiny—and meanwhile, his rivals are stealing the spotlight. In this episode, we connect the dots: from strange parade politics to Peng Liyuan’s…
A Chinese defector to Russia brought with him Xi Jinping’s secret plan to stab Russia in the back if Putin is defeated in Ukraine. The defection was a major embarrassment and sparked panic in Zhongnanhai. Putin seized the moment and pressured Xi into offering more support. The…
The world still doesn’t truly understand Xi Jinping’s emotions or character. Xi comes from the privileged "Red princeling" class—descendants of the CCP’s founding members. Recently, one of these princelings spoke out about this elite group: their worldview, values, pecking order,…
A shocking diplomatic defection has blown open Beijing’s secret strategy for a post-Putin world. We uncover a leaked CCP plan to divide Russia, seize Siberian territory, and use it as a launchpad for war over Taiwan. Xi Jinping's inner circle is in panic—scrambling to reassure…
An exposé by a second-generation Red elite offers a piercing psychological portrait of Xi Jinping. Drawing on insider knowledge of the princeling class, the author unpacks Xi’s insecurities, hypersensitivity, and stubborn mediocrity—traits that shaped his rise and ruined the CCP…
The recent and abrupt dismissal of Xinjiang Party chief Ma Xingrui has raised eyebrows. Ma is not only a powerful figure but also known to be close to Xi Jinping’s wife and a staunch loyalist of Xi himself. On the surface, his removal appears to be just another casualty of the…
For months, Xi Jinping has been a puppet, with those truly in power pulling the strings from the shadows. But now, they’re beginning to show themselves. Last week, the CCP announced the establishment of a “Decision-Making and Coordination Body” that effectively rules over Party…
This can only be explained by China’s population collapse.
This is how bad China’s economy has gotten: farmers are sitting on piles of ripe watermelons — but they can’t even afford to ship them to market. No buyers, no demand. Just rotting fruit and broken dreams. The China collapse isn’t coming — it’s here. #WarrenVsCCP #CCPFail
Taiwan’s Great Recall movement has failed—but the implications are far more dangerous than a political setback. In this episode, we break down why the recall collapsed and how the Chinese Communist Party is already celebrating the result. More alarming is the growing evidence of…
If you think China’s economy looks bad, its debt crisis is even worse. Compared to the U.S., China’s financial sector is dangerously over-leveraged and alarmingly fragile. On top of that, a catastrophic population collapse is making the debt burden even more unsustainable. And…
Hundreds of children at a kindergarten in Gansu Province have been found to have dangerously high levels of lead in their blood. The local government has attempted to cover it up. The extent of their efforts to conceal the truth is mind-boggling. This case demonstrates that…
China claims its economy is growing, but the numbers don’t add up. In this program, I expose the cracks beneath the surface—debt levels spiraling out of control, a financial system on the brink, and a collapsing population the government won’t admit. From disappearing…
There is growing alarm in the U.S. over Chinese infiltration attempts targeting the nation’s power grids—one of the most sensitive components of national security. Beijing began pushing for entry into the U.S. energy market as early as the 2010s. Although their efforts to acquire…
With a government more obsessed with power than human life—one that prioritizes order over safety—Chinese society is unraveling from the ground up. From Gansu’s toxic kindergartens to trains hotter than pig trucks, ordinary citizens are waking up to a harsh truth: the system no…
On April 28, 2025, Spain and Portugal were hit by an unprecedented nationwide blackout. Major cities went dark. Public transportation ground to a halt. Trains and flights were delayed or canceled. What’s most unusual is that, even after two months, the cause of the blackout still…
China’s grip on global energy runs deeper than most realize. In Portugal, a Chinese state firm became the largest shareholder of its top power company. In Spain and Portugal, a massive blackout in April 2025 raised red flags. In the U.S., the PJM power grid—which serves…
