News Analysis Americans and allies are too dependent on China tech, as demonstrated by recent revelations that our Chinese-manufactured credit card machines are sending data back to China for no good reason. The U.S. Treasury Department says that millions of Chinese point-of-sale (POS) devices, the credit card machines found at check-out counters, could be sending…
No More China Tech: 57 Million Credit Card Machines Likely Compromised
China: A Country Where Women Are Left Battered and Bruised
Commentary Companies in China, we’re told, are recruiting more women, granting them even more opportunities to succeed. At long last, after years of oppression, Chinese women are finally considered equals. Earlier this year, to mark International Women’s Day, Shanghai Stock Exchange rang its bell in celebration of its female citizens. How magnificent. Is there a…
The Biden Administration’s ‘Sole Purpose’ Nuclear Mistake
Commentary “Never interfere with your enemy when he is making a mistake,” is one of Napoleon Bonaparte’s contributions to military strategy.

CCP Appeasement Is a Fool’s Errand
Commentary America’s China policy objectives have been flawed for decades, resulting in the ascendancy of a hyper-aggressive Chinese regime.

Biden’s Plan for Xi Summit Shows Weakness in His China Policy
News Analysis Politico reported that President Joe Biden plans a summit with Chinese leader Xi Jinping, in which he will allow the reopening of Chinese consulates and relaxation of Trump-era visa restrictions.

Beijing’s Authoritarian Policies Are Killing Factories
Commentary Factories in China are contracting, which reveal long-term economic trends.

The Threat From TikTok Is Real: Congress Needs to Wake Up
Commentary On Oct. 26, TikTok executive Michael Beckerman was asked by members of U.S. Congress if the app shares data with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).

COVID-19 Origin: Was It an Accidental Lab Leak of a Genetically Engineered Virus?
Commentary The recently declassified U.S. intelligence community report on the origins of the SARS-CoV-2 muddies the water.
