China warns of artificial intelligence risks, calls for beefed-up national security measures
"China's warning advances to artificial intelligence can pose a risk to its national security. After a ruling Communist Party meeting chaired by president Xi, China is issuing a statement warning of risks posts by AI while also calling for heightened national security measures. The position underscores tension between China's aim to be a global leader in cutting edge technology and concerns of its potential, social and political harms. The statement comes after scientists and industry leaders in the U.S. recently warned of similar risks. It stresses that in China there is a need to improve the security governance of Internet data and AI. I Mimi Montgomery

China launches new crew for space station, with eye to putting astronauts on moon before 2030
"China has launched its first civilian astronaut to its space station as part of a new three person crew, the shenzhou 16 spacecraft lifted off from a launch center on the edge of the Gobi desert in northwestern China just after 9 30 a.m. local time. The crew will overlap briefly with three now aboard the tiangong station who will then return to earth after completing their 6 month mission. China built its own space station after it was excluded from the International Space Station with the hope of putting astronauts on the moon before the end of the decade. Their exclusion was largely down to U.S. concerns over the Chinese space programs intimate ties with the People's Liberation Army, the military branch of the ruling Communist Party.

Vivek Ramaswamy: The Secret of Geo-Politics
"I agree with your premise and there is a lot of a kind of a potemkin village component to China where the threat is real and significant and could be extremely destructive be a war like we've never seen but the hard reality is Vivek our military we have what 11 aircraft carriers I think they would have won in their construct in a few months I mean we've actually been in combat The Chinese Communist Party I don't think they understand like it's one thing to talk about playing a football game and it's a whole other thing to get on the field with the cowboys and start playing the game right It's a different it's a totally different animal I think that we have more strength than we give ourselves credit for especially economically But Dan it requires the willingness to make some short run sacrifice You know at declaring independence from China I think we can actually do it more easily I have studied the supply chains if we're willing to use Korea and Japan and India and Australia It becomes a little bit more digestible It's not that hard but it will involve some short run sacrifice but it's like my parents taught me You can make a sacrifice if you know what your sacrificing for And that is this thing we call America Thinking on the time scales of history instead of election cycles that's a little bit more of what we need And the secret of geopolitics It's like a business is that it's when you're most willing to make a sacrifice that you won't have to actually make one at all but the thing we've missed for the last 40 years now over the last three years is four to two in The White House and not just fortitude but I think a president who is compromised Literally by our top enemies financially Why do you said

Eric Welcomes Frank Gaffney to Discuss New Book "The Indictment"
"Daphne, welcome to the program. Congratulations, your book, which we will be talking about at length as we ought to. It's called the indictment, prosecuting the Chinese Communist Party and Friends, I didn't mention Biden by name. I want to be clear. I did not do that. Prosecuting the Chinese Communist Party and Friends for crimes against America, China, and the world. Forward by Steve Bannon, the book is the indictment, there is everything to talk about, but let's just start with the news of the day. Finally, after 40,000 years, we have the report from I can't even think of his name right now. From John Durham, the Durham report that we've been waiting for since we were kids. Here it comes out. And it corroborates what we all knew, but it carefully corroborates the truth that the Russia stuff, the FBI investigation, that this was all politically motivated that there was deep corruption there is deep corruption in the FBI in the deep state wherever you look, so I guess the question becomes, what about it? What do you, Frank Daphne, who live a little bit in this world more than I do, what do you make of this? I think it's a pretty strong indictment if I can use that expression. Is that the title of your book? The indictment is good. An indictment of the state of our rule of law. You know, of course, that if a Republican president, a Republican administration, a Republican FBI, had been involved in anything remotely like this kind of monkey business for one of a better expression or more to the point criminal misconduct. People would be walking the plank. They would be going to jail. They would be doing hard time for protracted periods.

We Wasted Two Years on the Trump-Russia Hoax!
"Back before the midterms, 54% of Americans think Trump's dealings with Russia were unethical or illegal. Going right into the midterms. We wasted two years of unified congressional control on hearings about this garbage. It was all a con and they're just laughing because they say, we got away with it. They hijacked the media narrative, Adam Schiff, he goes out, he says, I have a good evidence. Can we get that clip of Adam shifty Schiff? I have on good evidence that Donald Trump is colluded with a foreign power. It's all nonsense, but they had to take out Jeff Sessions. I know that you guys in the audience don't like Jeff Sessions. That's fine. I'm going to defend him a little bit. He was awesome on immigration. One of the best. And he was very good on gang violent crime. Very, very good. Now look at the difference between Jeff Sessions and Rosenstein. They took out Sessions basically by making recuse himself based on a lie. So they took out Donald Trump's super based super conservative attorney general based on a lie. The carnage that happened because of this lie is not just like, oh yeah, we wasted some time. And Jeff Sessions is way too old fashioned on this. He trusted the FBI. Maybe 30 years ago that would have made sense, but not today. I have negative faith in the Federal Bureau of Investigation. But look, by the way, somebody says Charlie, I know you're upset, but stop calling us smelly Walmart Walmart people. I didn't say that. That's what Peter strzok said in his text message is everybody, okay? I was quoting Peter strzok. Jeez. I would never say something like that. That's literally what your FBI said about you. Just to clarify on you 'cause we got a couple emails about it. So Adam Schiff came on TV. Adam Schiff on a TV, he said, Donald Trump deceived us. He said, insisted multiple times he had direct evidence of Trump Russian collusion. This whole thing was a hoax. And by the way, they also did this for a different reason. There were so many reasons why they had to do this. They deeply about why else would they try to make Russian Trump seem like a Russian agent. They did this so that Trump would overcompensate and not get close to Russia geopolitically. Because the neoliberal regime in D.C. would hate nothing more than Putin and Trump working in harmony to go against the Chinese Communist Party.

Exposed: How Obama's Professors Tried to Destroy America
"We're talking about the border. And you're helping us understand what's going on down there. I read an article. I think it was the gateway pundit. I posted it on Twitter about how Obama, while at Columbia, sat under two professors. I'm trying to think of the names. One of them is pivot Clive and pivot or something like that. Do you know anything about that? Vaguely familiar. Well, basically that which, which is what I've suspected all along, is that these folks want to destroy America, want to erase the southern border so that I mean, I think a lot of people sense this, that this is not compassion or this is not whatever. When you're giving these people over to the cartels, it's a nightmare, but that the real goal of these leftists who are anti American George Soros, the former president, they are wanting to destroy America as we know it. And they're using this as a way to do that. Right. Let's be very specific. They want to destroy the historic America. Which has an Anglo Protestant base, which is a country that is suspicious of government authority that is very independent minded, very self reliant, wants to have guns to protect itself, demands freedom of religion and freedom of speech doesn't think everybody should be applied to the government. Thinks you should basically sink or swim on your own or rely on private charity. The America that the founders and that Abraham Lincoln and the people who fought World War II, the America that existed before 1968. Is uniquely resistant to Marxism. Communism never became a major movement in the U.S. even among the working classes, the labor unions, the Communist Party tried to take over all the labor unions in America. And it was Italians and Irish and Polish workers, ordinary workers who went to church and didn't have any talk with atheism, who threw the communists out,

Rep. James Comer: Biden Family Received $1M From Corrupt Romanian
"First instance, while vice President Biden was lecturing Romania on anti corruption policies, in reality he was a walking billboard for his son and family to collect money. Hunter Biden and his associates capitalized on a lucrative financial relationship with the Romanian national, who was under investigation for and later convicted of corruption in Romania. The bidens received over $1 million for the deal. And 16 of the 17 payments to their associates account that funneled the Biden's money occurred while Joe Biden was vice president. In fact, the money stops flowing from the Romanian national soon after Joe Biden leaves the vice presidency. This is a pattern of influence peddling. This appears separate from any payment hunter received from his work connecting this individual to a U.S. law firm. We'll also provide further information regarding the Biden's relationship with China. This includes two individuals, the committee is particularly concerned about. One of them, eugen Ming had close ties to the highest levels of the Chinese Communist Party and operated a multi-billion dollar energy company with access to large sums of money. We'll discuss how the bidens received millions of dollars from this individual through the use of shell companies and wire transfers. In March, the committee released its first bank records memorandum that showed a Biden associate rob walker used his company to funnel money from the Chinese to various Biden family members. Democrats dismissed the evidence. Even though it was based on bank records directly from the bank,

China's Exposed: Why They Pose an Existential Threat to America
"So let's begin where we need to end. Why is China the number one threat to the security of the United States today? Yeah, look, China views us as under the Chinese Communist Party as their primary adversary. They've been very explicit about that. If you look at an increasing amount of scholarship, including I would remark on rush doshi's book, the long game, Russia actually works for President Biden now. He's one of his directors on the National Security Council staff. If you look at that and other scholarship that looks back a few decades, again, primary source research, primary source materials that have been largely overlooked by a lot of scholars. You find that Beijing decided at the end of the Cold War to regard the united states as their chief adversary, ideological, and military and geostrategic foe. And decided that it needed to gather more strength, increase its military power and its economic power before it could really unveil its intention in regardless as their primary adversary. But now they've done that. The fig leaf has blown away. And Beijing believes that the United States poses an existential threat just by our existence. It beliefs that Taiwan as a democracy, the first successful Chinese democracy, ethnic Chinese democracy in the world, poses a mortal threat just by its existence. And it intends to wage war, including through nonviolent means economic and financial warfare using criminal proceeds, China is now the number one Chinese criminal organizations are now the number one money launderers in the world supporting, for example, the robust fentanyl trade into our borders. All of these are things that it regards as a means to eroding American power.

Bill Gates and the CCP Should NOT Be Buying Up Our Farmland
"Michael Peters. A member of the Lee Republican executive committee moved down here from north Florida, lived there for 15 years. Owned a small business there. Got to be real good friends with lots of other small business owners and farmers. And the farmers in north Florida are being bought out by Bill Gates. How do we stop it? It's a great question. So this is where we need to push back against oligarchy and it's not just Bill Gates. It's the Chinese Communist Party as well. And so for us. And you can't blame the farmer. So some people say, oh, why are the farmers selling? Because they come in with unbelievably lucrative cash deals people, okay? I'm talking about ten times multiples on earnings, right? Four times and they're like, I can't say no to this, right? So I believe there should be a law passed on a state by state level that billionaire oligarchs should not be able to buy millions of acres of pharma. You want to buy a couple 100,000 acres. Okay, there could be a limit. But the Chinese Communist Party should be able to buy zero, okay? I would be willing to go as far to say that Bill Gates, you already own enough land as it is in the country. Bill Gates is not buying farmland because he wants the betterment for the country. He's letting it go fallow. It's what? He's letting it go foul like. I believe it. BlackRock, for example, should not be able to buy up single-family homes and write them back to our kids. Amen. So what we're getting at here is the next exciting development in the conservative movement. I'm a free market guy. We all like free markets. However, free market should serve people. When free markets fail to serve people, we should be willing to use prudence practical judgment to make the market serve the people. It's against the free market to have a guy worth a $110 billion, go buy farmland, let the land go. You said fallow is the technical term, right? Correct. And so foreigners should not be able to come in and buy our farmland. Single-family homes should be owned by families or small investors not $10 trillion funds.

Lawmakers Warn U.S. Of Impending Crisis In War Game Simulation
"Quinn at national review, put out the first summary of the war game that was played on Wednesday night. The House select committee on the Chinese Communist Party simulated a time on invasion scenario during a two and a half hour war game behind closed doors last night. An exercise that heightened the stakes for Congress as the island democracy faces down an increasingly belligerent China. Lawmakers walked away from the simulation, determined to warn the U.S. business community of the impending crisis. The committee doesn't believe that American companies are taking it seriously enough. We are well within the Mac window of maximum danger for the Chinese Communist Party invasion of Taiwan. And yesterday's war game stressed the need to take action to deter CCP aggression and armed Taiwan to the teeth before any crisis occurs, representative Mike Gallagher, the committee chairman told national review. The simulation was ever seen by the center for new American security think tank whose experts played the role of the Chinese military. The members of Congress took through all the president's national security team. While the committee did not complete the war game, we didn't expect them to. There isn't enough time. It spotlighted the stakes for the lawmakers who participated quote last night's exercise reaffirmed what we already know. She is running hypothetical invasion scenarios in his head every single day that representative Ashley hinson, a member of the committee.

Jan Jekielek Tells Us About the Epoch Times
"You're being kind to your host Jan, but I am glad you are acquiescing to my perfect British pronunciation of the word epoch when it comes to epoch times. I don't know why some of your colleagues say epic. Tell us about epoch times because I think it's been around for a long time, but it has exploded. I would say, maybe, you know, along with president Trump getting serious on China. Last 5 or 6 years has been a flourishing for your organization. Tell us a little bit about it. Well, absolutely. And so the reason I started working with epoch times back in the day, as I was mentioning earlier, no one, no media wanted to touch negative stories about China or the Chinese communist party. Big paid inserts from the Chinese government. That's what they're going to FT and the Washington they would take money to have those big insert payment ads, in fact. And there was a lot of that. And then there was a lot of not reporting on some of the really, really harsh realities that it wouldn't be to wasn't hard to find. Meanwhile, epoch times, epoch times was founded in the year 2000 to expose the Chinese Communist Party. And what it was doing. Yes, falun gong practitioners were among the founders. And it was exactly in this context. There wasn't really information that was credible. They started in Chinese language in Atlanta. These are Chinese Americans that started this. The John Tong, our founder, he had been in the student movement in 89, right? Tiananmen Square massacre. It was associated with that. And but in 99, he thought, hey, I can actually I'm going to free country. I can actually start a website and tell the truth, not just in America, but to China itself. And this little website exploded, of course, because people gravitate very naturally. I think people inherently want to know the truth. Some people, sometimes you don't want to know the truth, but a lot of the time you do want to know the truth, right? And especially when it's hidden from you. So it started there 2003, the English edition began 2005, my wife and I, we started working with them in capacity. We were so I had worked on the UN side of I had worked on the NGO side of the UN trying to help folks, right? And I came up with regards to China. With regards with regards to China exactly. And so I was in the human rights field, right? And we ended up deciding to do direct work, basically supporting Chinese refugees.

And I tell you, during the time that I was at Carlisle and today, it has changed a lot. And you see just the imperialistic economic view they're taken around the world. And on top of that, they're aggressive military actions towards Taiwan. And it's why I was so pleased that we were able to pass legislation on a bipartisan basis to protect our agriculture from acquisition by entities owned by the Chinese Communist Party. We were able to ban TikTok and WeChat and listen, at the end of the day, I'm just going to make sure that Virginia isn't using taxpayer money in order to facilitate gains by companies that are benefiting the Chinese Communist Party.

Yeonmi Park: I Sold My Own Mother to Survive in China

For a little while, your mother's there, your father's there. You still don't know where your sister is. You are still in this sexual slavery with this pimp. And what happens next? He loses all his money from gambling. Okay, so we keep forgetting, I forgetting. We're dealing with big criminals, so he's big into gambling, and he loses everything. Yeah. So he couldn't even give us a few cents of money to buy food in China. So I couldn't buy my mother some water. The meters on the water. And if you don't pay the bill, the water doesn't come in. So open the water tiny little bit. So the mirror will not run. And even that comes out. So in paradigm, we can able to get a little bit of water. So I could even get my mom water. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, we're not talking about North Korea. We're talking about China. This is China. Wow. So I had to serve my mother because I couldn't feed her in China. So you had to sell your mother. This is in the book. To whom? A farmer in the countryside or Han Chinese or other Chinese. Okay, this brings us to the forced abortion policy. Tell us. One child policy that Communist Party implemented in country that resulted a lot of people choosing boys over girls. Okay, so killing the baby girl in the womb because they went out of the room. They flipped the baby. If the girl was born, a lot of them were poor, they could not get the sonogram. So when you give birth, girl comes up, what do you do? You just flip them, baby can not breathe. That's how they kill the baby. They're on baby. The parents will kill their own baby if it was a girl. Because they are gonna get punished.

What China Means to Apple
"You also went and saw Tim Cook. Now I was in a room when Tim Cook got very Sparky with senator Tom cotton when the senator, whom he did not appear to recognize. I'm not sure Tim Cook's up to date on much in the Congress. Question, some of their practices early on in his tenure as a member of the Senate. And Tim Cook just bristled and dismissed what he thought was a young man who probably didn't know anything. Tom cotton. It's like dismissing you. They're on the Intel committee. How did Tim Cook respond 'cause they're the most deeply embedded American company in China. They can't get out. They're like, the pirates who are part of the ship in the Disney movies, Pirates of the Caribbean. You know, the guys who were stuck in the wall. That's apple in China. What did he tell you? Well, to your point here, I left thinking that even in the best case scenario where a company like Apple realizes it needs to de risk is the new phrase of the moment and rebalance their supply chains out of China. You know, it's not like they can pick up and tomorrow they'll be in Vietnam or there'll be an Indian. So it's going to be a prolonged process. And the point I tried to make is that if Apple conceives of their relationship or presence in China is sort of the floor of our economic relationship. But differently, if we continue to decouple and other areas, AI, quantum, they feel that they should still be allowed to make iPhones in China. Okay, well, what happens when the floor falls out of the relationship? The bottom falls out of the relation because Xi Jinping decides to invade Taiwan. Well then they're in a heck of a tricky situation. And for whatever reason, whenever I interact with, you know, big tech CEOs or particularly major asset managers on Wall Street, they really just particularly those who have met with Xi Jinping repeatedly. They just tend to discount the likelihood that Xi Jinping would do something like that. For whatever reason, it's totally foreign to my sensibilities as a military analyst. They just think that he's going to act rationally. He'd never do it. It would be economically destructive. And I just, I find myself always puzzled as to why they think that way, because I think that for reasons that have less to do with, you know, the pure economic calculus and have more to do with his own legacy as well as the ideological nature of the Chinese Communist Party, which we've ignored for two decades. The odds of Xi Jinping doing something like this are indeed increasing. So that's the conversation we had. We raised some concerns about the reports that Apple has shut off their AirDrop AirDrop functionality during the COVID zero protests. We had a back and forth on that issue. So again, this was the first first engagement in what's going to be a longer conversation. I will concede and kind of to the point of your question, this is the trickiest aspect of economic decoupling.

Diamond, no stranger to brashness, also knew the bank would have to engineer a hasty retreat. Soon members of the firm's government relations team and China offices were corralled to discuss the remarks, and decide whether to acknowledge them or let them lie. Some 18 hours later, when it became clear that the comments attracted global attention, diamond issued a statement of regret. Hundreds of individuals, companies and organizations have apologized for hurting the feelings of the Chinese Communist Party, said Isaac stone fish founder of its strategy risks, which specializes in corporate relationships with China. The way diamond said that he regrets his comment is a smarter way to do it. Diamond's remarks made during a visit to the Boston college chief executives club follow a slew of domestic and international trips as JPMorgan's chief executive officer continues to tout a U.S. economic boom that's also put him at the front of Wall Street's return to office push. But his recent travel efforts have been somewhat problematic. The quarantine exemption he earned for his Hong Kong visit, a dispensation also afforded to actress Nicole Kidman, garnered much local criticism. Now he's having to downplay his Boston comments, and it's not the first time. Diamond has a history of provocative remarks that he's been forced to walk back, in 2018 he vowed at a philanthropy event that he could beat Donald Trump in an election because he was smarter than the president. Only to put out a statement hours later, saying he shouldn't have said it. Diamonds Bragg an apology reminded another Wall Street chief executive whose firm is a big JPMorgan shareholder of Lloyd blankfein's joke years ago that Goldman Sachs Group was doing God's work. The attempts bank bosses make to be witty takes on lives of their own, said the executive, who asked for anonymity to avoid connecting his name to a mass. Diamond will also likely get through any fallout, just as blank find it, but the distraction will be unwelcome, the executive set. The mere culpa underscores JPMorgan's desire to keep cordial relations in China, where it has nearly $20 billion of exposure and has ambitions to expand further. Earlier this year, the bank won approval from Chinese regulators to fully own its China security venture, and wants to maintain its good standing in the country for further licensing requests, particularly ahead of major leadership changes in the party expected next year..

"Maybe this is just Jeff trying to figure out what kind of software that building in China. What do they have over there? I'd love to know. I'd love to know what infrastructure looks like. I went to a KubeCon China one time and it was very interesting. They had some very interesting architectures too bad I couldn't communicate with them because I don't speak Mandarin, I think it is. I wish I did. I wish there were more open lines of communication between the United States and China so that I can meet engineers over in China and shake their hands and hang out with them. But there's not, and I can't. And many of the primary ways that I would meet an engineer who's from China in America is through somebody who's in an H one B program. And the H one B Visa program is essentially indentured servitude. So in America, we're still sponsoring indentured servitude. That's great. That's really great that we're still doing this. We're still enslaving people. We do it through an H one B program and we basically hire these people and then we threaten them. We threatened to export them back to their home country to suffer further imprisonment if they don't work our most boring and tedious work at a corporation. And it's really unfortunate because it forces our corporations to be complicit in this madness, where we just subjugate people from another country, just to give them the privilege of American citizenship. American citizenship wasn't meant to be handed out like a privilege. It was meant to be it was meant to be given to people as a way of refuge or just by a default. We've got a lot of open space here. We've got a lot of room for people who can contribute to America. And we should be letting in a lot more people, we should be doing it with open arms and obviously in a in a way that is safe to national security, but. There's so much wrong with the geopolitical situation right now. And a lot of it has to do with technology. And I don't hear any technologists taking a stand. I see a lot of people who are just sitting behind their desk saying nothing eating Cheetos, drinking coffee, not doing anything to help their fellow to help their fellow man. Or woman, and there's really no excuse. Whoever you are, listening to this on your iPhone or your AirPods, you, do you even realize you're at war? If you're not at war, you're making a mistake. If you're not at war, you're being lazy. This is not complicated. They have concentration camps where they harvest people's organs. They they torture them. They sterilize people, this is not a joke. This is not okay. This is a country that we do massive amounts of trade with. This is a country that we are completely interleaved with. There's not an excuse. We should be speaking out against this stuff. It's not acceptable. It's simply not acceptable. I don't care if it deprives you of your iPhone or your computer or your hardware or your Cheetos or your coffee or your paper or your cars or any civilized object, go learn to farm. It doesn't matter. You can not sit idly by while the Chinese are sterilizing human beings and harvesting their organs. And by the way, just simply controlling their people through a great firewall, a great firewall we're sitting by while they have a great firewall, they have a great firewall that literally segregates them from the rest of the world, and we don't care about that. That's a major problem. How are people not talking about this? Oh, because free speech here is completely censored. And whose fault is that? The tech companies. And how do the tech companies get started with venture capital? And who's the most notable loudest venture capital firm in the last several years? Andreessen Horowitz. They have Chinese Communist Party sympathizers in the growth team and the infrastructure team, leading the consumer team. They seem like great people over there. They seem very entertaining. They seem very wealthy. They seem very happy with their decisions in life. I disapprove. And I welcome you to listen to all of my content with andreessen Horowitz's people. I've interviewed Ben Horowitz, the number one guy. It was one of my favorite interviews. I've listened to it probably 5 times. Because I respect bend horus approach to leadership. He simply made a series of mistakes here on his way to domination of Silicon Valley. You know, I've interviewed Vijay pande about quantum computing. I interviewed Peter Levine about the future of the cloud. I interviewed sonal chalky, the controller of their media arm. And I just think they're awesome. And I always have thought they're awesome as an organization. And by the way, I actually don't even really have anything against these. Chinese Communist Party sympathizer Chinese people at andreessen Horowitz. It's more that I think the fact that they are intimidated by their by nature intimidated because because they probably have relatives, they probably have connections to China that are just unavoidable. They simply have no choice. But to work in favor of their government. And to make decisions that are in favor of ultimately their government, which is the Chinese Communist Party. I'm sorry, I'm really, really sorry if this comes off as racist. I'm sorry if it comes off as prejudiced. It's not. Again, I've dated Chinese women for the last two years almost exclusively because I was pretty sure I was going to have to do this. I hope to marry a Chinese woman someday to be honest and it's that's not a fetish. There's one in particular that I have in mind. But. What can I say? This is what I believe. I'm not kidding here. I don't have an axe to grind. I don't have a bone to pick. I simply think that.

This party is always right is very much china of the new era and is partly about binding chinese people together under the leadership of the party by emphasizing the bad times which are not the cultural revolution the bad times of the bad times created by foreign aggression in the nineteenth century and and and in the twentieth century by the japanese.

"Alice china's reached the stage. Where anyone who has documented history that doesn't fit with the official chinese government narrative has been arrested or fled abroad. Well sometimes it does seem that way. And when i speak with people like chongqing or online archivists in my story they speak about how hopeless they feel because it does seem like those are the only two options. You need to go abroad or you're going to end up in jail but you know when i'm on the ground reporting. I'm often surprised by the fact that you never really know. Completely what is their below the surface in china. And sometimes you know in the most unexpected places. You'll find someone who actually holds thoughts that go against the government narrative and they just never had anyone to talk about it so even going back to this scene that we described earlier last friday when i was in that shopping. Area and soundly twin. I was listening to the patriotic songs and watching the patriotic video. And i thought you know. I'm going to go interview a patriotic volunteer and get some quotes about how they are of one hundred years of history. I saw this group of elderly men. They were all wearing red hats and red armbands which marks them as neighborhood volunteers for the event and i went to talk to one of them. There's this old man kind of wearing his red hat and red armbands standing in front of the video screen. That was playing videos of rocket. Blast off and you know great china in the future. His name was young year in and he was seventy two years old. And when i asked him you know what do you think about this. One hundred years celebration. He's surprised me because he actually paused. And he knew that i was foreign media and he said you know one hundred years it is something remarkable but i can't help but think there are some things that we still need to reflect more on roy. Moore the gogol shots. There are mistakes that we've made and we haven't thought enough about them. Like many people of his generation. He knows a lot of melted. Don't quotes and it was quite interesting. He actually quoted this line from amount to me which was insurance input gel sharia law which means humility makes one progress in advance. An arrogance makes landfall behind them team to walk luggage. Just so you understand. That's a very dangerous thing to say in china and it's especially dangerous to be saying that at the site of patriotic celebration with police around and with everyone coming on the most sensitive week of the year when everyone is meant to be united and proud a chatted more with young and he told me you know he was sent to hey long john province when he was young during the culture revolution when a lot of youth were sent to remote rural areas to work in us telling me how. It's not just that the common people suffered a lot during those years but it's also that he saw how top leadership within the party you know was engaged in these kind of brutal political struggles. He saw leaders being purged and they kind of broke his ideals on his illusions about the glorious pure party. That's leading us. I think he and many people of his generation when they saw the kinds of factional struggles and mutual. Purges that were happening. They realized this is really about power but he also said you know. I'm thinking like this. I'm not sure if it's correct. But i just can't help thinking we need to reflect more. What struck me about. This story is how what the chinese communist party is doing with. Its nation's history. It's exactly what we do here. We've been whitewashing our own history since the days of the mayflower yet the. Us has always quick to judge communist china and others. But we do the same in stay silent. I think what has struck me during my reporting is that you know amid all this competition between the us and china we kind of see a lot of very similar rhetoric coming out of both sides essentially the us and china are competing right now to prove you know who has the better system and who can be a stronger country based on their type of governance and for china. At least it's very much about showing. Obviously it's us obviously as the communist party. We are so strong. We are so united. We're able to get rid of kovic we're able to now send rockets into space and a lot of the focus is on achievement and accomplishment. But while reporting i think what struck me was that the people that i meet who actually lived through. That past are not so fixated on a type of strength. That's defined by skyscrapers.

"Crackdown from the communist in Beijing. With so much turmoil at home. This major event is barely a footnote in the newspapers of America. The Chinese Communist Party is on the move on the new administration best be wary. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo joined me on the Hugh Hewitt show. Let me ask you about President Biden. Do you expect him to stand up to the Chinese Communist Party or sit down because after he's financed by Hollywood and big tech, and they're compromised by the Chinese Communist Party I think the world and that includes the American people will continue to demand that the United States secure Uh, freedom before them on, then includes pushing back against the challenge of our time. That is the challenge of the Chinese Communist Party in its capacity and intention. You expand its influence and ultimately deliver. Ah, world that is very different, Well not governed by the rule of law by respect for sovereignty, all the things that the world has come to know. The post World War. Two environment. The Chinese Communist Party wants to upend with a very different theory of international relations, one dominated by the East one controlled in a way that won't create more security freedom, more prosperity. I am confident the American people demanded whoever. Is leading their country. President elect Biden included respond to that in a way that continues to make sure that America remains the country. It has asked for the last 240 plus years and that the world continue to operate under set of rules that are Based in human rights based in the law, based in respect for sovereignty that those air core principles the idea of reciprocity is important. And I think every American leader understands the necessity for that. Again going back to the Nixon library speech, You said, quote in Hollywood not too far from here as we were in Yorba Linda, the epicenter of American creative freedom and self appointed arbiters of social justice. Self censors, even the most mildly unfavorable reference to China. I'd like to expand on that Mr Secretary, the experience that this weekend you know, this era's version of Oliver Laurel is a guy named Seth Rogan. And after hitting me once he exploded in anger and vulgarity me on Twitter. When I invite him on this program to discuss the Chinese Communist Party, he replied, Quote My movies don't come out in China. Sidestepping the issue of Hollywood cow towing to Beijing, despite its repression of the Wickers despite Hong Kong is that changing has has Hollywood woken up, even if You know celebrities adopting disguise ignorance with invective. Is it changing in Hollywood? You have not seen that yet. The Capacity of the Chinese Communist Party to influence just Hollywood. But the me our media more broadly, whether that's through investment interests whether that's through Threats that they would have access to the markets in China. Whether that is simply people hanging out at the same cocktail parties. It is the case that we have permitted the Chinese Communist Party take in get inside of our schools, our research institutions. Uh, you spoke about our media in Hollywood. Those those are things that fundamentally present risk to the sovereignty of the United States America for decades, we turned the other cheek. We allow this to go on. I think just this President Trump has said. We've had enough That can't continue to happen, and the United States needs to do everything it can. The government needs to do everything it can to prevent that from continuing to happen. The most recent example. Feeding the Dragon is a book by a Hollywood executive Chris Fenton, and the most recent example of what he describes his cow towing is Tom Cruise, iconic Bomber jacket in top gun, too. Removed the Taiwan flag from it Now, is that insidious? Is that something we should ignore? Is that just silly comedians like Seth Rogan? Or is that a real problem?
