My book, When China Attacks: A Warning to America, considers the multi-faceted PRC threat to the US and the free world, the damage that's been done after decades of 'non-kinetic' war, and what to do about it. It’s available now wherever books are sold: amazon.com/When-China-Att…

The #PRC economy will of course grow by whatever number #XiJinping says it did. Only Wall Street and the U.S. business class pretend otherwise.
China reports the economy grew 5.2% in Q2.
Another excellent SAA piece. The #PRC regards economic warfare as on a par with 'kinetic' warfare - and its been waging successful economic warfare against the West (and Japan) for the last 40 years. No excuses for not recognizing this.
We’re letting Xi Jinping weaponise economics all over again. And Australians should know better. "The point is China will use its economic power as a weapon against others when it chooses to do so in areas well beyond rare earths." strategicanalysis.org/were-letting-x…
Indeed. This is the reality. There are no 'private' companies in China. They all are ultimately controlled by the #CCP. Remember when Jack Ma was supposedly the face of the #PRC's private sector? And then #Xi Jinping reminded him who calls the shots in China.
Every Chinese entity poses a threat to the free world. All of them are controlled by the CCP. None can act independently once the CCP decides to intervene.
Thank you China Unscripted for the chance to explain in detail the leftist, pro-NK, pro-PRC, anti-US takeover that is taking place in South Korea. The USG still has a chance to prevent this by exposing what’s going on and supporting Koreans who support freedom and the alliance.
After interviewing @NewshamGrant, I'm EXTREMELY worried the recent South Korean presidential election was rigged. Leftists have taken power and China may be behind it. Here's our full interview. It's horrifying. chinauncensored.tv/programs/podca…
When I first started looking at South Korean elections in 2020 I doubted they were rigged. I soon changed my mind. Every election since at least 2020 has been rigged by ROK leftists working jointly with the CCP.
Did China Rig South Korea's Election? youtu.be/NMp-ixn5uds
South Korea is falling to pro-NK, pro-CCP, anti-US radicals who’ve taken control of national levers of power. USG is either oblivious or doesn’t care. There was never anything ‘permanent’ about the once-solid ROK-US alliance.

Yes, all it took was 'scratching the surface' and following the evidence wherever it went. That used to be Journalism 101. One finds more of this at @epochtimes than anywhere else.
Thank you for this James. The most shocking thing to us was the reaction to our reporting. The "Russia collusion" story never made sense, from the very beginning; one could see it just by scratching the surface of the available information, especially as the cache of it grew.…
Epoch Times is one of the few outfits that does real reporting -- as the expression 'reporting' once meant something, say, 40 years ago.
The irony is that history will prove @epochtimes to be the true journalists in one of the most epic betrayal stories in American history. Meanwhile the New York Times will cling to its debunked Pulitzer “Prize” like a rejected sweetheart clutching old love letters.
Dems portray the changes as an unprecedented assault on the health care system, but they ignore the surge in Medicaid spending over the past decade and mischaracterize reforms that mainly target a widely exploited funding loophole and nonworking, able-bodied enrollees…

Well stated. This move is about 30 years overdue. America’s elite business, financial, and political classes - and many uniformed military leaders - put us into this mess. And it took a real estate man from Queens to try to fix it.
Beijing bans Americans from owning farmland in China while exploiting our openness to advance its economic and kinetic statecraft on U.S. soil. And we’re supposed to dismiss that as harmless? No more naïveté. No more capitulation to Chinese grand strategy. @JChengWSJ…
Chinese Communist Party political warfare and subversion going full speed in the United States. The objective: create chaos and tear the nation apart. Thus, less able to defend against the #PRC.
Also worth noting that Stop AAPI Hate consistently downplays the threat posed by the CCP and opposes legislation targeting CCP espionage and political influence in the U.S. The group says “rhetoric that accuses China and the Chinese Communist Party of spying” is “fearmongering”…
This is a good piece showing #PRC political warfare to tear USA apart. "Stop AAPI Hate has consistently downplayed the threat posed by the #CCP and opposed legislation targeting CCP espionage and political influence in the U.S. In a 2022 report “The Blame Game: How Political…
We can break this rare earth addiction to China much faster than the ‘’experts’ predict if we make the effort. That’s always the case when America puts its mind to some task. There’s a lot more to be done, but it is indeed movement.
Moving!
This episode ought to be required watching for #USINDOPACOM planning staff. Excellent.
Just because China is doing everything Imperial Japan did in the Pacific doesn't mean we should worry, right?

This could be some guy in 1938 explaining why the Czechs just had to be turned over to the Nazi Germans. Tut..tut..just can’t be helped. And when the PRC leans on Australia (as it will) the Americans might make a similar argument. Sometimes having a few principles matters.
There is also the assumption that Australia cannot risk the loss of trade benefits with China, as if this is somehow an existential concern. Captured by China’s narrative of trade dependency. The anemic lighting adds to the unsettling effect.
General Spalding is right as usual. Allies are important but it’s a different era and they’ve got to pull their weight instead of expect the USA to take up the slack.
We don’t have allies who aren’t economically parasitic. Might have worked when the US owned the world manufacturing, but that’s no longer the case. There’s a simple formula for defeating a communist power. Comprehensive decoupling, nuclear deterrence and economic strength - lose…
It’s not like this hasn’t been tried before. Not a shred of evidence it will have a happy ending - for Australia at least. Beijing is another story. Albo ought to put his pension on the line if it’s such a good idea.
Is it just me, or is the government moving beyond stabilisation towards some kind of economic integration goal with 🇨🇳? Has a Russo-German pre-2022 feel. Except that 🇦🇺 recently experienced economic coercion from Beijing, and yet chooses to forget that inconvenient memory.
