Jan Jekielek, Senior Editor at The Epoch Times and host of “American Thought Leaders,” joins PragerU CEO @realtalkwithmarissa to discuss the Chinese Communist Party’s global strategy, the weaknesses behind China’s economic power, and why President Trump’s foreign policy aims to contain the CCP before it expands further. They examine tariffs, rare earths, strategic pressure on Iran and Venezuela, and why Beijing responds only to real leverage. They also discuss unrestricted warfare, forced organ harvesting, and why understanding the communist mindset is essential if America hopes to avoid being outmaneuvered by China.
