Commentary The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) strictly controls China’s newspapers, making sure all stories are aligned with exactly what it wants. Reading between the lines of Chinese publications is edifying, especially this May Day. China Daily recently reported on Meng Lan, a panda. In writing and by video, the publication reminded Chinese citizens of the…
Digital Fentanyl: The CCP’s Cyber Campaign to Destroy America
Commentary The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has always played the long game. It’s pivotal to their strength. They have a disciplined ability to think generationally rather than focus on the current political climate of the now. The CCP has zero respect for the rule of law, nor do they abide by any code of ethics….
US and Philippines Close Ranks Against China
Commentary As tensions rise between China and the Philippines over islands and resource rights in the South China Sea, the Biden administration has drawn a line in the sand.

China’s COVID Narrative Was a Lie From the Beginning
Commentary Beijing’s policies and actions during the COVID-19 pandemic have received insufficient scrutiny, particularly considering revelations and policy reversals over the past several months.

David Krayden: Beijing’s Intimidation of MP’s Family Shows Regime’s Arrogance and Years of Weakness From Ottawa
Commentary Conservative MP Michael Chong has every right to be “profoundly disappointed” to discover his family in Hong Kong was under surveillance by communist China and the Trudeau government did nothing about it. Another disconnect between Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS). Another example of incompetence, cowardice, and pusillanimity towards China—that country…
China Shows Strength, But Questions Remain
Commentary Beijing reported that the country’s real gross domestic product (GDP) grew in this year’s first quarter by 4.5 percent over the first quarter of 2022.

In addition to strengthening the banking sector and modernizing the stock markets, these reforms opened…
A New Number in Communist Chinese Numerology?
Commentary The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is steeped in numerology as it seeks to convey legitimacy by merging traditional Chinese lucky numbers with crackpot communist policies imposed on the unsuspecting Chinese people.

US and Allies Should Seize More Iranian Oil

The original U.S. seizure was part of sanctions against Iran’s nuclear…
China’s Information Game With the West
Commentary Only months after publicly assuaging fears of a crackdown on foreign businesses, Beijing seems to be doing just that.
