A Chinese blogger made a horrifying discovery in a Chinese hotel. And that was just the beginning.

This man in the video is the vlogger called “Big Blue” by stock traders. Recently, he’s been getting a lot of hate from netizens because many believed his prediction that the Chinese stock market would surge after the National Day. As a result, a lot of people lost almost all their savings.

The Chinese economy under Xi Jinping is finally showing its fault lines. How long can it last?

his is a condensed version of Jan Jekielek’s interview with Gordon Chang. The full version was released on Epoch TV on September 28, 2024.Jan Jekielek interviews Gordon Chang, the author of the new book, “Plan Red: China’s Project to Destroy America,” to understand the Chinese regime’s strategy to destabilize America, from fentanyl warfare to election disinformation to suspicious activity at the border.“We see momentum toward war, and we Americans have got to ask ourselves, what is going to stop this momentum to war?” Chang says.“The Communist Party People’s Daily, the most authoritative publication in China, in a landmark editorial declared in May 2019 a people’s war against us, and we’re American, so we think we can ignore what our enemies say. But for Communist China, People’s War is a phrase that has great resonance going back to the beginning of the People’s Republic. Just about a year ago, ‘PLA Daily’ actually defined people’s war for us. It said people’s war is total war, and we have seen China wage a campaign of unrestricted warfare against the United States.”Gordon Chang: “You have an insecure regime in China. Beijing is worried about the inspirational impact of America’s values and form of governance on the Chinese people. So I believe the Communist Party does not think it will ever be safe as long as the United States exists.”Chang about Chinese students in America: “We know that Chinese consular officials and Ministry of State Security agents actually surveil those students and get them to commit espionage, get them to engage in political activities which is inappropriate on our soil, and this is our country. We allow that. Under the communist party’s top down system every Chinese national has to obey the instructions and demands of the Communist Party and China’s 2017 National Intelligence law actually codifies this in one area where Chinese nationals are required to commit espionage if they receive a demand.”“There must be hundreds, if not 1000s, of Ministry of State Security agents running around our country trying to compromise American politicians.”Chang recommends: “We need to sever all of our contacts with the Chinese regime. I know that that is very strong. I’m not saying it’s politically acceptable, but I am saying it is necessary, and the reason is we’re being overwhelmed. We are being overwhelmed by a Chinese regime. Our law enforcement is being overwhelmed. Our universities are being overwhelmed, our businesses, Hollywood, just, you name it. And we don’t have a hold on this. And until we are able to manage this, we need to take those contacts and sever them. It’s going to be tough. It will be painful, as we talked about, but nonetheless, it’s necessary, and that’s why I’m so concerned, because we are not willing to do what is necessary to save our society.”CHAPTER HEADERS[0:00:00 – 0:00:22] Chinese Migrants with Military Ties[0:00:28 – 0:02:37] China’s “People’s War” and Unrestricted Warfare Against the U.S.[0:03:19 – 0:07:53] Chinese Infiltration of American Society and Elections[0:08:24 – 0:09:54] Influx of Chinese Migrants Across U.S. Borders[0:12:08 – 0:15:13] Comprehensive Chinese Penetration of American Institutions [0:15:34 – 0:19:21] Severing Ties with the Chinese Regime[0:19:54 – 0:22:02] Potential for Wider Conflict and the Need to Prevent War[0:22:02 – 0:22:20] Conclusion and Call to Action

The Taiwan Strait is about 180 kilometers long. The United States and Taiwan both say that it ‘s a key shipping and trade route. About half of the world’s container ships pass through it. The waters are international and open to all warships. However, the Beijing government disagrees, claiming that democratically governed Taiwan is its own territory and that only China has sovereignty and jurisdiction over the strait.

The European Union is moving forward with imposing tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles, despite resistance from key member states like Germany. These tariffs, which could reach up to 45%, aim to address what the EU views as unfair Chinese subsidies, but they risk sparking retaliatory actions from Beijing and causing further division within the bloc. This decision has ignited debate over how the EU should navigate its complex trade relationship with China. Matej Šimalčik, the Executive Director of the Central European Institute of Asian Studies and Jakub Faryś, the Chairmman of the Polish Automotive Industry Association joined us on TVP World to explore these developments.

On September 25th, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) test-fired a so-called “new” intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) over the Pacific. Their propaganda immediately hyped it up, claiming the missile flew incredibly high, supposedly going beyond the detection range of US satellites. They boasted that it didn’t use much fuel but could still maneuver in space, making it difficult to intercept. After re-entering the atmosphere, it could supposedly use the remaining fuel for final maneuversJoin this channel to get access to perks:

On October 4, the European Commission’s proposal to impose anti-subsidy taxes on Chinese electric vehicles was approved. What impact will the EU’s actions of imposing tariffs and creating trade barriers have on the world economic order, and what consequences will it bring to Europe? “There is no way the world will achieve the Paris goals for reducing carbon emissions without the capacity of the Chinese renewable energy industry,” says Benedikt Sobotka, CEO of Eurasian Resources Group and co-chair of the Global Battery Alliance (GBA). China’s renewable energy technology is at such an advanced stage that it now holds sway on the industry globally. This may be particularly important for Europe, where low-carbon life reigns supreme.
