China has banned rare earth mineral exports to the U.S., which the speaker says validates Trump's stance on Chinese independence. China controls 97% of the world's rare earth minerals, essential for electronics and computer chips. The speaker claims a past strategic deal allowed China global manufacturing dominance in exchange for limiting military expansion. The speaker says rare earth minerals are vital for missiles, drones, and aircraft. While Trump shifted the U.S. dependence to 95%, environmental regulations hinder domestic extraction despite massive U.S. deposits. The speaker accuses traders within the U.S. government of selling out to China, but claims China double-crossed them, causing their globalist program to fail. The speaker believes Trump is winning the trade war, using tariffs strategically. The speaker also claims globalists are planning false flag race-based terror attacks, citing the firebombing of Governor Shapiro and threats against Trump.

China's addition to the World Trade Organization in 2021 led to a surge in manufacturing and shipbuilding. China's dominance in both making and moving goods gives them exponential power. While tariffs address trade barriers, China builds 50% of the world's ships, including 37% of military vessels. These shipyards also produce military equipment like aircraft carriers and submarines. Funding Chinese shipbuilding is seen as sacrificing economic and national security, as money invested goes back into their military. The U.S. is seen as financing China's military, contributing to its own detriment.

The speaker claims the root of the fentanyl problem is the CCP, alleging that almost all fentanyl precursors originate from Mainland China, where hundreds of companies ship them globally. The CCP claims they don't make fentanyl, but instead provide all the necessary ingredients to Mexico. The speaker says that the CCP announced they would no longer sell one specific precursor, but there are 14 others that can be used to make fentanyl, and they are still shipping all of those. The speaker claims to have started an enterprise to target fentanyl precursor companies in Mainland China. The speaker states that these companies are now shipping precursors to places like India, and the Mexican cartels are manufacturing fentanyl in Mexico. Instead of going directly into America, the fentanyl is being flown into Vancouver, manufactured in Canada, and distributed globally from there.

China's ultimate goal is not to trade with the United States, but to replace American businesses. The belief that investing in China would lead to a more open market is being replaced by the understanding that China wants to win twice. Despite hopes that trade would bring political change, China remains an authoritarian one-party state with no democracy or independent judiciary. The Chinese Communist Party surveils its people, censors information, tortures dissidents, and persecutes religious and ethnic minorities. China is using its economic power to influence and change America, as recognized by the current administration's China strategy. The CCP's campaign for ideological conformity extends beyond China's borders and aims to exert influence worldwide, including in the United States.

Americans are coming through Vancouver, with precursors from Guangdong province. The Chinese Communist Party is turning a blind eye to the RCMP's request for help during the Meng Wan Wangzhou incident. This allows the CCP to facilitate the reverse opium war, destabilizing and undermining democracies. The Chinese Communist Party could control and stop the 100,000 deaths from Fentanyl overdoses, but they choose not to. Vancouver is a major distribution point for these drugs, which are then sent back to Asia. The CCP's relationship with organized crime allows them to easily stop this flow, but they have no willingness to do so. This is part of their hybrid warfare strategy to destabilize democracies worldwide.

- The speaker asserts that the United States is not just containing China but is attempting a rollback of Chinese economic growth, arguing that military power is largely a function of economic power. - They claim, “The United States… is a ruthless great power,” and that Americans are tough despite liberal rhetoric used to cover up ruthless behavior. - The speaker recounts a late-1980s/early-1990s warning to China: if China continues to grow economically, there will be a fierce security competition, and China would be shocked by how ruthless the United States is. - They state that China did not believe the warning at the time because the United States was treating China very well. - The speaker explains the underlying mechanism: “the structure’s gonna change, and when we go from unipolarity to multipolarity, and you’re a peer competitor, we’re gonna think about you very differently than we think about you now.” - They claim that this structural shift is exactly what is happening, with China moving toward being a peer competitor and the United States now treating China differently as a result.

A 4% tariff on China is insufficient; 400% is necessary because China doesn't adhere to WTO rules, steals IP, and cannot be litigated against in their courts. This isn't just about tariffs; it's about leveling the playing field, something no one has done. The speaker claims to represent millions of Americans whose IP has been stolen. While acknowledging the Chinese people's contributions, the speaker asserts their government cheats and steals. The speaker praises the Trump administration for standing up to China. The speaker believes 400% tariffs would force China to negotiate, as Xi Jinping's leadership depends on employment. The speaker argues America, holding 39% of global consumables and 25% of the world's GDP, has the leverage to pressure China. The speaker advocates implementing 400% tariffs immediately, anticipating a swift resolution.

Trump is officially three in o with China. Here's what nobody's talking about. China had a heavy investment in Iran. Trump neutered them. China had a heavy investment in Gaza. Trump secured a regional firewall. China straightforwardly controlled Venezuela for two decades. Trump's moving in and China's blinking for a third time. And that's why everyone is asking the wrong questions when it comes to Venezuela. The cover story is this: Trump's military buildup toward Venezuela is about countering narcoterrorism and targeting drug cartels like Trend Agua, which are tied to the president Nicolas Maduro's regime. But analysts go a step further and they still miss the mark when they say, well, this is really about regime change. It's neither of these things. I mean, yes, we've got a drug problem, but it's actually ties to a much bigger issue. Trump's Venezuela offensive is much bigger. It's his proxy war against China, and he's the only president in history who was actually fighting China where it hurts. As of this week, Trump has positioned over 10,000 US troops and eight warships in the region. We have helicopters and Reaper drones taking out narco boats. We have F-35s, and Venezuela has scrambled their jets. And this week, Trump has authorized the CIA to carry out lethal operations in Venezuela. We'll dive into that one a little deeper in the next segment. All this to ostensibly go after drug boats and fight narco terrorism. Yet everyone is taking this at face value. Listen. Why not have the coast guard stop them, which it is empowered by law to do? So Trump answers question as asked. Because we've been doing that for thirty years, and it has been totally ineffective. Even the ostensibly right-leaning National Review gets it wrong by musing that this is all about regime change. Here's why this whole Venezuela offensive is really about China, and this is a shadow war against Beijing. The first in history that looks like it will actually work. You see, attacking Maduro is attacking Xi Jinping. To think that Maduro is some independent agent is naive and foolish. Why is Venezuela basically China? Well, follow the money, the oil money. Again, remember what I said yesterday about why China is likely the biggest force behind the Gaza war in promoting Palestine and Hamas protests around the globe? Remember, it's about taking advantage of bad leadership that sits over cheap oil and cheap resources. China sweeps in, buys out the leadership, gets free gas, essentially. Venezuela is the poster boy of this predatory China oil game. Beijing is Venezuela's largest creditor by far. Venezuela has over 60,000,000,000 in debt to Beijing since 02/2007. It pays Beijing back in, you guessed it, oil. Venezuela is economically paralyzed by sanctions. The only country supporting Venezuela meaningfully is Beijing because they're the primary buyers. This forces Venezuela to sell their oil for next to nothing, meaning they'll forever be indebted to Beijing. That's the whole game. That's the way China plays. In May 2025, at the China CELAC Forum, Beijing gave Venezuela an additional billion dollars in new oil investments, solidifying Venezuela's position as the front lines of The US China shadow war. But China's interests in Venezuela go far beyond cheap oil and economics. Chinese companies are neck deep in modernizing Venezuela's ports and telecom infrastructures. And in all things related to Chinese companies, you're a fool to think the Chinese Communist Party does anything without making it a dual military civilian use project. I'll say it again. China does not allow its companies to operate in the world unless it could also be used for their national security purposes. So don't be fooled when Trump is using all this force and manpower and CIA expertise in Venezuela. This is Trump taking the war to China. He's doing what no other president before him was even remotely capable of accomplishing. Trump is declaring war on China's most valuable assets, Iran, Venezuela, Gaza. What do these tin pot dictatorships have in common? They'd be nothing without the Chinese Communist Party. And China would be nothing in the geopolitical stage without them. And now Trump is taking them, Iran, Gaza, and now Venezuela. Three strikes, and you're out, Xi.

Speaker 0 notes that owned groups have been buying up schools across the United States, including Spring Education Group which owns 240 schools in 19 states, funded by a Chinese investment firm whose CEO has been described as an ardent Chinese nationalist. Xi Van Fleet, who was born in China and lived through the Cultural Revolution, joins the discussion. Speaker 1 explains that the CCP has long viewed America as its arch enemy and has continually aimed to weaken and undermine the United States in order to replace it as the world’s superpower. Education is identified as a key battleground. Since the early 2000s, CCP efforts began with higher education through Confucius Institutes, then expanded to public schools via donation and exchange programs such as sister school programs, and are now moving into private schools by purchasing many of them. She asserts that in 2015 the CCP bought the high school New York Military Academy, a school that President Donald Trump attended, arguing that the intent is not to make money but to take over American education and turn classrooms into the “little red classroom” and education into “American education with CCP characteristics.” The overarching goal, she claims, is generations of people who align with CCP messaging, referencing influencer Hassan Piker who allegedly visited China and told followers that China offered a solution for America, asserting that communism is the solution to problems created by capitalism in America. This, she says, is very dangerous. Speaker 0 adds that the NY Military Academy purchase connects to efforts to influence elites by targeting private schools where wealthy families send their children, who then go on to hold high positions in society. She notes that there has been chatter about Chinese ownership of farmlands as well, but argues that the influence through these private schools is even more effective.

Many Western corporations are unaware of the true nature of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its leader, Xi Jinping. Throughout history, no organization has survived when dealing with the CCP. Xi Jinping has transformed the party into his own, and it is no longer representative of communism. It is crucial for corporations to realize this for their long-term benefit. The New Federal State of China is a group that possesses internal intelligence about the CCP. They can provide valuable information and protection, not just for profit.

Since the US helped the CCP join the WTO, American manufacturing has lost around 3.4 million well-paid jobs, as shown on a map. The job losses are not limited to the Rust Belt but extend from the East Coast to the West Coast. The trade deficit with China currently stands at $367 billion. The CCP has been engaging in unrestricted economic warfare against the US, violating international rules without consequences. President Trump was the first to hold them accountable for human rights violations and forced labor, but the trade deficit continues to grow. Chinese workers abused by the CCP have been producing goods for major retailers like Target, Walmart, and Kmart. It is crucial to find an alternative to China's dominant supply chain.

Western financial institutions have invested heavily in China's real estate market, relying on fake data. The CCP's influence in Australia's economy through corrupt businesses poses a threat. The CCP controls the world financially, manipulating countries and individuals to serve its interests. China's economic collapse could lead to the downfall of the CCP and expose its wrongdoings.

The speaker advocates for raising tariffs on Chinese goods to 400% to force China to adhere to trade rules, alleging they haven't followed WTO rules since 2020 and consistently steal American IP. They claim China uses US financial markets unfairly, with Chinese companies not abiding by GAAP while listing on NASDAQ. The speaker says they are willing to accept market volatility to resolve the trade imbalance, which they believe harms American businesses through IP theft and unfair competition. They emphasize the distinction between the Chinese government and its people, criticizing the government's cheating and disregard for rules. The speaker believes the US has leverage due to being the largest consumer market and having a significant GDP. They argue that China needs the US, and this is the time to pressure them into compliance, even if it causes short-term economic disruption.

At age 16, while in the Chinese military, the speaker was told that China's strategy to defeat the U.S. should avoid traditional warfare. The reasoning was that China was too poor and technologically behind, making a conventional war unwinnable. Instead, the suggested strategy involved the full use of bioweapons and chemical weapons. It also included working to turn Americans against each other through divide-and-conquer tactics to weaken the U.S. from within.

Speaker: The CCP builds influence in democratic societies through overseas United Front work, a system the party uses to expand control and influence without force. The United Front is the party’s weapon to shape political, social, and economic environments to serve its goal of becoming the dominant global power and advancing claims such as the annexation of Taiwan. Through ongoing, long-term relationship building, the Party has created a global network of individuals and organizations inside open societies. In Canada, organizations connected to the United Front are substantial: Canada has at least 575 United Front–linked organizations, making it the second largest network among the four countries studied and with the highest per-capita presence. Much of the United Front work operates through informal ties—personal relationships, invitations to China, honorary titles, and privileged access. The 575 United Front–linked organizations identified in Canada represent only a visible layer of a much larger system operating quietly underneath. Canada is important to the CCP because it has strong institutions, vibrant civil society, and large diaspora communities. To the Party, shaping thinking, networks, and decisions in countries like Canada yields accommodation rather than confrontation. Alongside the United States, Canada has become one of the key environments where overseas United Front work is actively developed. From the research, three things stand out. First, the Chinese Communist Party politicizes everything: activities that appear social, cultural, or economic are treated by the CCP as political resources. Second, most United Front activities are not illegal; they operate through relationships. Influence is built through access, invitations, titles, and personal ties, not necessarily through breaking rules. For example, individuals with strong United Front ties have accompanied multiple Canadian prime ministers from both political parties to visit the PRC and have also participated in policy consultations ahead of those trips. Third, once this network is embedded, it can be mobilized. With the network in place, the Party gains the ability to make requests for political influence, narrative shaping, talent recruitment, and even voter mobilization on Beijing’s behalf.

Richard Wolff and Glenn discuss the future of the West, NATO, Europe, and the international economic system. - The central dynamic, according to Wolff, is the rise of China and the West’s unpreparedness. He argues that the West, after a long era of Cold War dominance, is encountering a China that grows two to three times faster than the United States, with no sign of slowing. China’s ascent has transformed global power relations and exposed that prior strategies to stop or slow China have failed. - The United States, having defeated various historical rivals, pursued a unipolar, neoliberal globalization project after the Cold War. The collapse of the Soviet Union and the end of that era left the U.S. with a sense of “manifest destiny” to shape the world order. But now time is on China’s side, and the short-term fix for the U.S. is to extract value from its allies rather than invest in long-run geopolitics. Wolff contends the U.S. is engaging in a transactional, extractive approach toward Europe and other partners, pressuring them to concede significant economic and strategic concessions. - Europe is seen by Wolff as increasingly subordinated to U.S. interests, with its leadership willing to accept terrible trade terms and militarization demands to maintain alignment with Washington. He cites the possibility of Europe accepting LNG imports and investments to the U.S. economy at the expense of its own social welfare, suggesting that Europe’s social protections could be jeopardized by this “divorce settlement” with the United States. - Russia’s role is reinterpreted: while U.S. and European actors have pursued expanding NATO and a Western-led security architecture, Russia’s move toward Greater Eurasia and its pivot to the East, particularly under Putin, complicates Western plans. Wolff argues that the West’s emphasis on demonizing Russia as the unifying threat ignores the broader strategic competition with China and risks pushing Europe toward greater autonomy or alignment with Russia and China. - The rise of BRICS and China’s Belt and Road Initiative are framed as major competitive challenges to Western economic primacy. The West’s failure to integrate and adapt to these shifts is seen as a strategic misstep, especially given Russia’s earlier openness to a pan-European security framework that was rejected in favor of a U.S.-led order. - Within the United States, there is a debate about the proper response to these shifts. One faction desires aggressive actions, including potential wars (e.g., Iran) to deter adversaries, while another emphasizes the dangers of escalation in a nuclear age. Wolff notes that Vietnam and Afghanistan illustrate the limits of muscular interventions, and he points to domestic economic discontent—rising inequality, labor unrest, and a growing desire for systemic change—as factors that could press the United States to rethink its approach to global leadership. - Economically, Wolff challenges the dichotomy of public versus private dominance. He highlights China’s pragmatic hybrid model—roughly 50/50 private and state enterprise, with openness to foreign participation yet strong state direction. He argues that the fixation on choosing between private-market and public-control models is misguided and that outcomes matter more than orthodox ideological labels. - Looking ahead, Wolff is optimistic that Western economies could reframe development by learning from China’s approach, embracing a more integrated strategy that blends public and private efforts, and reducing ideological rigidity. He suggests Europe could reposition itself by deepening ties with China and leveraging its own market size to negotiate from a position of strength, potentially even joining or aligning with BRICS in some form. - For Europe, a potential path to resilience would involve shifting away from a mindset of subordination to the United States, pursuing energy diversification (including engaging with Russia for cheaper energy), and forming broader partnerships with China to balance relations with the United States and Russia. This would require political renewal in Europe and a willingness to depart from a “World War II–reboot” mentality toward a more pragmatic, multipolar strategy. - In closing, Wolff stresses that the West’s current trajectory is not inevitable. He envisions a Europe capable of redefining its alliances, reconsidering economic models, and seeking a more autonomous, multipolar future that reduces dependency on U.S. leadership. He ends with a provocative suggestion: Europe might consider a realignment toward Russia and China as a way to reshape global power balances, rather than defaulting to a perpetual U.S.-led order.

China's addition to the World Trade Organization in 2021 led to a surge in manufacturing and shipbuilding. China's dominance in both making and moving goods gives them exponential power. While tariffs address trade barriers, China builds 50% of the world's ships, including 37% of military vessels. These shipyards also produce military equipment like aircraft carriers and submarines. Funding Chinese shipyards means the money goes back into their military. This situation sacrifices economic and national security by giving China control, which is maintained at the expense of the United States. The U.S. is financing the building of China's military.

By February, the Chinese countryside was bankrupt, and state enterprises were unprofitable. After NATO accidentally hit the Chinese embassy in Belgrade in May, Jiang Zemin stated that the Americans hate China and that China must build up its army and join the WTO without adhering to its rules. Bill Clinton apologized and allowed China to join the WTO. China's leadership has consistently opposed capitalism and aimed to maintain a socialist economy, repeatedly breaking promises regarding intellectual property rights, transparent governance, and the rule of law. China faced massive overproduction before joining the WTO, with large quantities of unsold goods stored in warehouses. After joining, China began dumping goods, enabled by the fact that factories were not allowed to go bankrupt. By February 2004/2005, reforms to the banking system and state enterprises were postponed indefinitely, with 96% of the largest enterprises controlled by party members. The speaker claims that communists allow a private sector only when needed, clamping down when it is no longer required. The rest of the world must buy China's overproduction or go bankrupt, incentivizing companies to establish factories in China.

A 4% tariff on China is insufficient; 400% is necessary because China doesn't abide by WTO rules, steals IP, and can't be litigated against in their courts. A 400% tariff would force China to negotiate and level the playing field. No administration has confronted China, but the Trump administration has. This speaker claims to represent millions of Americans whose IP has been stolen. While acknowledging the Chinese people's contributions, the speaker asserts their government cheats and steals. Xi Jinping's leadership depends on employment, and America, controlling 39% of consumables and 25% of global GDP, holds the leverage. The speaker advocates for immediate 400% tariffs, believing it will compel China to negotiate swiftly.

Chinese President Xi Jinping plans to visit the United States to meet with President Biden. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has a long-standing strategy of using this approach. Their internal propaganda convinces the Chinese people that when they meet Americans, they will persuade them that the US has no other option. Once in the US, they urge Americans to remain calm and optimistic, emphasizing the desire for China and the US to be friends again. This tactic has previously allowed the CCP to gain entry into the World Trade Organization (WTO), which some argue has had detrimental effects on the US economy.

The evidence against China's adherence to WTO commitments is too significant to ignore. A bipartisan report suggests moving away from the PNTR paradigm and establishing a new economic relationship to counter the CCP's economic aggression. The consequences of inaction include deindustrialization, increased reliance on a hostile regime, and mounting debt. It is time to address this issue rather than simply acknowledging it.

Speaker 0 describes a high-stakes geopolitical confrontation framed as a poker match between the United States and BRICS, especially China. He asserts that the early 2026 period is explosive and that US actions against Iran are imminent, escalating the stakes. He then lays out a narrative beginning with Venezuela, a key Chinese trading partner, where the United States not only sanctioned and condemned Venezuela but launched “devastating strikes,” captured Nicolas Maduro and his wife, and brought them to New York City for prosecution. He claims the Chinese delegation was meeting Maduro in Venezuela on Saturday, but Trump’s actions disrupted the meeting, and the Chinese delegation remains in Venezuela as of Sunday morning. He argues that this is not about narcoterrorism or fentanyl but a larger strategic move, and notes the apparent lack of resistance from Maduro’s side, suggesting direct CIA involvement and a stand-down agreement to allow the operation. He condenms what he calls “phony outrage,” arguing Democrats are not truly anti-war and contending that the incident marks a dangerous precedent for militarized actions in sovereign nations. Speaker 1 contributes by agreeing that China and Russia are not stupid enough to threaten the United States militarily in the homeland, but contends they will act through economic and financial measures. He predicts China and Russia will liquidate debt holdings and trigger negative impacts on the U.S. bond market, while avoiding direct military confrontation. He emphasizes that the response will be economic rather than kinetic. Speaker 0 returns to the 30,000-foot view, stating that the Venezuelan event signals an open head-to-head between the U.S. and China, with globalization receding and regionalization rising. He highlights two key leverage moves: the United States using tariffs as a market-access tool, while China employs choke points through export controls on critical materials. He notes that China quietly moved nearly $2 billion worth of silver out of Venezuela before Trump’s invasion. He points to China’s January 1 policy implementing a new export license system for silver, requiring government permission and designed to squeeze foreign buyers, which coincided with a sharp rise in silver prices. He connects this to broader concerns about supply chains and critical inputs like rare earths and magnets, noting that China produces over 90% of the world’s processed rare earth minerals and magnets, a powerfully strategic lever. He argues that China has tightened rare earth export controls targeting overseas defenses and semiconductor users, and that these factors contribute to a shift from globalization to regionalization where supply chains become weapons. He frames Trump’s tariff strategy as a means to gain access to the U.S. market, branding April 2 as “liberation day” for tariffs due to how markets reacted, and mentions discussions of a tariff dividend proposal to fund a new economic model, as floated by the administration. Speaker 0 concludes that Venezuela is a focal point where resources, influence, and dollars collide, with potential implications for the U.S. dollar, and asserts that the geopolitical chessboard is being redrawn as the U.S. and China move into open competition. He ends by forecasting further moves, including a controversial note about Greenland, and invites viewers to subscribe for coverage of stories the “Mockingbird media” will not discuss.

US Special Operations Command reports China is waging hybrid warfare, including economic theft, propaganda, and drug warfare. The book *Unrestricted Warfare* details military strategy without direct confrontation, blurring lines between war and non-war. Critical theory, originating in the 1930s, aims to subvert Western civilization. Critical race theory, a derivative, divides America into white oppressors and non-white victims, promoting a narrative of systemic white supremacy. China seeks to surpass the US without bloodshed, exploiting internal divisions fueled by social media bots. Counterfeit goods from China account for 3.3% of global trade, including fake currency and N95 masks. Fentanyl, shipped from China via drug cartels, causes numerous overdose deaths in the US. Chinese hackers have stolen military plans and attacked US infrastructure. Unit 61398, a Chinese PLA cyber warfare unit, is linked to cyber attacks against US companies. The "fifty-cent brigade" steers online conversations to align with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) line. Black Lives Matter (BLM), founded by Marxists, is portrayed as a CCP-influenced movement exacerbating racial divisions in the US. A study links BLM to over 90% of riots in America. The CCP criticizes US race relations while persecuting its own minorities. BLM is characterized as a CCP column waging war on American soil.
