China’s military shake-up may be exposing deep cracks in Xi Jinping’s rule. Mike Baker speaks with Steve Yates of The Heritage Foundation about China’s sweeping purge of top generals and what it reveals about Xi Jinping’s grip on power. Is the Chinese leader facing cracks within his own ranks—or could he even be at risk of being deposed?

Two centuries ago, the richest man on Earth was a Chinese merchant who made his fortune through international trade. Not linked to an emperor or a warlord, Wu Bingjian, known to the West as Howqua, built his wealth through integrity and vision. During the Qing dynasty’s first encounters with Western powers, Wu amassed great fortune and established China’s first multinational conglomerate. When a trade war erupted between China and the West, Wu twice helped rescue the Qing government and shaped the outcome of China’s first trade war. From the Canton trading system to the Opium conflict, his story still echoes in today’s U.S.–China tensions and trade wars.

The white-collar middle class faces severe global and regional challenges, primarily driven by AI-driven job displacement and economic shifts. Globally, AI is replacing office roles faster than it creates new ones, as supported by a Quarterly Journal of Economics study (1940–2018), which shows automation reduces jobs unless new domains emerge. In the U.S., while stock and real estate investments offer some financial cushion, rising bankruptcies and an aging population signal growing distress. In China, the situation is dire, with stagnant stock markets, plummeting real estate values (59% of household assets), and job losses from deglobalization. China’s middle class faces financial ruin, with many pushed toward low-end service jobs or the underground economy, including illegal activities like smuggling and fraud. While the U.S. middle class may pivot to blue-collar work or rely on social safety nets, China’s lack of support leaves its middle class vulnerable to collapse.

Beijing’s political skies are turbulent! On the eve of the CCP’s Fourth Plenum, unprecedented “elders returning to court” broke out: Hu Jintao, Wen Jiabao, Li Ruihuan, and Wang Yang all appeared, while Zhu Rongji, bedridden, signed in support of institutional reform. Multiple leaks claim Xi Jinping unusually reviewed his economic mistakes at the meeting and even said he was “willing to yield,” while the military’s Zhang Youxia reportedly declared, “The army obeys the collective, not the individual!” Even more startling, two Politburo Standing Committee slates—Plan A and Plan B—are said to be circulating in Beijing’s political circles, pointing to an end to one-man rule and a return to collective leadership. The authorities have not confirmed any of this, but the political world is already boiling—this Fourth Plenum may be the tipping point for a reboot of the CCP system.

China’s Fourth Plenum is underway — and it may decide Xi Jinping’s political fate. Behind closed doors in Beijing, the Party’s top leaders are meeting to chart China’s next five years — and possibly plan Xi’s exit. State media has gone silent, nine generals have been purged, and rumors of a quiet coup are spreading fast. In this episode, we break down what’s really happening inside the 4th Plenum — the strange split in China’s propaganda machine, the military’s growing role, and the hidden signs that Xi’s rule may be nearing its end. The meeting that decides Xi’s fate has already begun.
