Last time we spoke about the finale of the Northern Expedition, the reunification of China. In May the NRA advanced from the Yellow River bridgehead despite losing access to the Tianjin-Pukou railway, forcing a 60-mile march. General Chen Tiaoyuan captured Tehzhou on the 13th, as the NRA cleared northern Shandong. They then converged on Beijing, with Feng Yuxiang's 2nd Collective Army and Yan Xishan's 3rd Collective Army advancing from different directions. Yan Xishan fought the NPA, recapturing territories and capturing Nankou, which led to speculation he would enter Beijing first. Despite NPA counterattacks, the NRA forces continued their advance. By late May, the NRA's combined efforts and internal NPA issues led to a general retreat of the NPA forces. On June 6, Yan Xishan's troops entered Beijing. The NPA's Zhang Zuolin was assassinated by Japanese officers, leading to a power shift to his son Zhang Xueliang, who later aligned with Chiang Kai-Shek. By December 1928, China was unified under the KMT.   #118 The Chinese Civil War Draws First Blood Welcome to the Fall and Rise of China Podcast, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson. But, before we start I want to also remind you this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube. Perhaps you want to learn more about the history of Asia? Kings and Generals have an assortment of episodes on history of asia and much more  so go give them a look over on Youtube. So please subscribe to Kings and Generals over at Youtube and to continue helping us produce this content please check out www.patreon.com/kingsandgenerals. If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel where I cover the history of China and Japan from the 19th century until the end of the Pacific War. So I said a few times during the northern expedition that I wanted to push aside the emerging Chinese civil war. Although we loosely covered a lot of the major events, this episode is going to try and narrow and focus it down. Now please note, up until this point I have to admit I had been using sources that were either skewed towards the Chinese nationalist views or were trying to be non biased. For some of these episodes I intentionally am using some CCP aligned sources, I will try my best to balance things out. Also a large part of this is going to be a retelling of the Shanghai Massacre, but more from the point of view of the CCP. All the way back in 1926, Chiang Kai-Shek had managed to seize power over the Kuomintang. He exerted control over the party and army as he unleashed the Northern Expedition. By November 9th Chiang Kai-Shek set up a new headquarters in Nanchang. Chiang Kai-Shek was determined to purge the party of communists and began to do so here. He began by recruiting a large number of right-wing Kuomintang members such as Dai Jitao and Wu Tiecheng. Dai Jitao was a member of the Kuomintang Central Executive Committee and had served as the Minister of the KMT's propaganda department. After the death of Sun Yat-Sen, Dai Jitao had actively promoted an anti-communist movement, drawing support from warlords, right wingers and those the CCP would describe as “imperialists”. In May of 1925 with the support of Chiang Kai-Shek, Dai Jitao began an anti-communist campaign in Shanghai. He ran two successful pamphlets loosely translated in English as "The Philosophical Foundation of Sun Yat-senism" and "National Revolution and the Chinese Kuomintang”. Both worked to promote the teachings of Confucius and Mencius while distorting Sun Yat-sen's thoughts. Dai Jitao was arguing that Sun Yat-Sen's ideology chiefly came from Confucianism instead of western philosophy and that in fact the man was a traditionalist. He twisted Sun Yat-Sen's three principles, castrating them of revolutionary content. All of this quickly became a "banner" for the Kuomintang right-winger to carry out anti-communist activities. After Chiang Kai-Shek arrived in Nanchang, he immediately invited him to go north to jointly plan the purge of the party and anti-communism. Wu Tiecheng joined Dai Jitao, he was the director of the Guangzhou Public security Bureau and a well known KMT right-winger. Prior to the Zhongshan ship incident, Wu Tiecheng stated he had suggested to Chiang Kai-Shek that they impose sanctions on the CCP. In his words “with the registration materials of the special household registration of our Public Security Bureau, we can immediately arrest a dozen of the main Communist Party members, and then use a ship to transport them to a small island near Zhongshan County , or send them to Shanghai. As for the minor members, they will be temporarily detained." Chiang Kai-Shek said "I will think about it first." After the Zhongshan incident, Chiang Kai-Shek pretended to dismiss him from his post, but specially invited him later to Nanchang and dispatched him to Japan as a liaison. Another large figure who was invited over was Huang Fu, who had served as the Minister of Foreign affairs and Education for the Beiyang Government and as its Prime Minister. When Chiang Kai-Shek came to Nanchang he wrote to Huang Fu twice inviting him to come south. On December 31st, Zhang Jingjiang and Chen Guofu were also invited to Nanchang. Zhang Jingjiang was a member of the KMT's Central Supervisory Committee. After the secondary Plenary session of the second central committee, he became chairman of it. He used his authority and colluded with Chen Guofu, the Minister of Organization to dissolve the Guangzhou Municipal Party committee, which at the time was being led by left winger KMT. They did this by placing confidants in various positions to steal power. Simultaneously, they suppressed worker and peasant movements in Guangdong, even dispatching gangsters to kill their leaders and burn down the provincial and Hong Kong strike committee HQ. All of these people gathered at Nanchang formed a anti-communist cabal backing Chiang Kai-Shek. In January of 1927 these men went up Mount Lushan to a famous hotel called Xianyan where they plotted. After several days of meetings, as my source argues, mostly based on the advice of Huang Fu, these following decisions were obtained. Number 1, they would enact a policy of separating from the USSR and purging the party of CCP. Number 2, the NRA must settle the southeast by forming an alliance with the gentry and merchant class there. Number 3 in their diplomatic efforts they had to abandon the USSR and ally themselves to Japan. Number 4, to increase their military power they had to unite with Feng Yuxiangs Guominjun and Yan Xishan.   Upon returning to Nanchang, Chiang Kai-Shek took action, first by attacking Borodin. He sent a telegram to Xu Qian, the chairman of the Wuhan joint conference, stating Borodin had insulted him in public at Wuhan and demanded he be removed from his advisory position. He also recomended expell Borodin back to the USSR. The source I am reading states Chiang Kai-Shek had two rationales for going after Borodin. "Chiang Kai-Shek felt that except for Borodin, the Kuomintang leaders in Wuhan were all politically incompetent. ... As long as Borodin was there, he could not gain a dominant position. Secondly, he was using Borodin like a scape goat to hide his real anti-Soviet purpose'. At this time Chiang Kai-Shek was being labeled a USSR stooge by the NPA and a Japanese stooge by the CCP. In response, Chiang Kai-Shek stated publicly "Our alliance with Russia was left by the Prime Minister. Although its representatives have been arrogant for a long time and oppressed our party leaders in many ways, I believe that this has nothing to do with the Soviet Union's spirit of treating us equally. No matter what their personal attitudes are, we will never change our relationship with the Soviet Union towards Japan. Why should we unite with the Soviet Union? It is because the Soviet Union can treat China equally. Since the Soviet Union has not given up treating us equally, how can we give up the policy of alliance with Russia. ... Not only Japan, but any country, if it can treat China equally, then we will treat them the same way as we treat the Soviet Union. It is not impossible to unite with them. We unite with the Soviet Union to seek freedom and equality for China. It is completely based on the meaning of treating our nation equally, so we must unite with the Soviet Union. If the Soviet Union does not treat us equally and oppresses us in the same way, we will also oppose them in the same way. I have said for a long time." In regards to the CCP Chiang Kai-Shek stated to his close confidants “When I was in Guangzhou, I was always paying attention to the actions of the CCP. I wanted to implement my proposal to overthrow the CCP in Guangzhou, however I did not do so. I was unable to do so because it could mean the end of the Kuomintang”. After the success of the Northern Expedition, Chiang Kai-Shek lamented to his confidants “although our army has won a great victory, I still worry the enemy is not at our front but at our rear. The CCP is causing much trouble within, we must make sure it does not split out party or even collapse our army. There are thorns everywhere”. Publically Chiang Kai-Shek stated "Now there is a rumor that I distrust and alienate my Communist comrades and have a tendency to oppose them. In fact, it cannot be said that I will not oppose the Communist Party. I has always supported the Communist Party... But that is to say, if the Communist Party becomes strong in the future and its members are arrogant and tyrannical, I will definitely correct them and punish them. ... Now many Communist Party members are actually oppressing the Kuomintang members, showing an overbearing attitude, and tend to exclude Kuomintang members, making Kuomintang members embarrassed. In this way, I can no longer treat Communist Party members with the same preferential treatment as before. If I still have the same attitude as before, then I am not in the position of a Kuomintang member, and I cannot be a Kuomintang member. Although I am not a Communist Party member, from a revolutionary perspective, I have to take some responsibility for the success or failure of the Communist Party! I am the leader of the Chinese revolution, not just the leader of the Kuomintang. The Communist Party is a part of the Chinese revolutionary forces. Therefore, if Communist Party members do something wrong or act tyrannically, I have the responsibility and power to intervene and punish them." As you can see, publicly Chiang Kai-Shek was always walking on eggshells when attacking the CCP. If you know the old boiling frog analogy, it's more or less like Chiang Kai-Shek gradually getting the public to attack the CCP. At the ceremony where Li Liejun was appointed chairman of Jiangxi, Chiang Kai-shek once again gave a speech, saying that communism was only a method of economic development, which might be applicable in some countries, but if China adopted communism, it would be a great harm and would only lead to the overthrow and revolution of China. In late January, Chiang Kai-Shek met with Momuro Keijiro, a representative sent by Japan's minister of Finance and Navy at Lushan. Chiang Kai-Shek explained to Keijiro that he understood the importance of the political and economic relationship between Manchuria and Japan. He understood the Japanese had spilt a lot of blood there during the Russo-Japanese War. He believed Manchuria required special consideration and hoped the Japanese would correctly evaluate the KMT's struggle to reunify China. Chiang Kai-Shek then met with the Japanese consul General in Jiujiang, Edo Sentaro, explaining he did not only intend to abolish the unequal treaties but would try to respect the existing conditions as much as possible, such as guaranteeing the recognition of foreign loans and repayments and respecting foreign owned enterprises.  After these meetings Chiang Kai-Shek met with representatives of the Imperial Japanese Military such as Nagami Masuki and Matsumuro Takayoshi. It was Dai Jitao who set up these meetings. Chiang Kai-Shek began the talks by making it clear the KMT would not work with the CCP and was willing to work with Japan to prevent the spread of Communism in China. Chiang Kai-Shek also met with the Japanese politician Yamamoto Jotario who would go on to say in Beijing that he believed the Generalissimo was an outstanding military leader. Needless to say, as my source would put it “Chiang Kai-Shek was closely colluding with Japanese imperialism”. He was also establishing contacts with the US. He dispatched Wang Zhengting to Shanghai to meet the American consul general there. Wang Zhengting told him the KMT had washed their hands of the communists and that there would be nor more incidents such as the one that befell Hankou. The American consul general in Guangzhou was likewise contacted through the finance minister of Guangdong, Kong Xiangxi. What the American consuls told their government was “if the powers want to drive the Soviets out of China, they should establish direct contact with Chiang Kai-Shek”. Chiang Kai-Shek also publicly expressed regret to numerous nations for incidents such as the one in Nanjing. He was gaining a reputation as being the only leader in China capable of restoring order amongst the chaos. Many of these foreign diplomats privately told Chiang Kai-Shek that if he wanted to really brush shoulders with them he had to purge the communists and soon. To truly purge the communists Chiang Kai-Shek reaches a deal with the bourgeoisie of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. They will support him economically if he helps suppress the worker movements in Shanghai. They fund Chiang Kai-Shek some 500,000 Yuan in early March, then on the 29th the Shanghai Commercial Federation pledges 5 million Yuan, with another 3 million on April 1st. Around this time Chiang Kai-Shek secretly send Wang Boling, the deputy commander of the 1st army; Yang Hu, chief of the special affairs department of the general HQ and Chen Qun the director of the political department of the eastern route army to Shanghai in disguise to meet Huang Jinrong. Huang Jinrong was a chief detective working in the French concession of Shanghai. He also happened to be one of the top three gangsters working under Du Yuesheng of the Green Gang. Huang Jinrong summoned Du Yuesheng and the other Green Gang leader Zhang Xiaolin, as they all discussed how to purge the communists. The Green Gang leaders seized the opportunity to help the KMT. They began monitoring the CCP, armed their gang members and began to attack anyone who was picketing. They formed the “China Progress Association”, which in reality was just Green Gang members. This association proceeded to attack the Shanghai General Labor Union, providing the perfect pretext for Chiang Kai-Shek to act.  On April 1st Wang Jingwei returns to Shanghai from aboard. By the 3rd Chiang Kai-Shek telegrams that Wang Jingwei is reinstated and holds secret talks with him. On the 8th Chiang Kai-Shek organizes a Shanghai Provisional Political Committee, stipulating it will decide all military, political and financial decisions and will replace the Shanghai special municipality provincial government that was established after the third Shanghai worker uprising. On the 9th he unleashes martial law prohibiting assemblies, strikes and marches, and established the Songhu Martial Law Command, with Bai Chongxi and Zhou Fengqi as the commander and deputy commander. Chiang Kai-Shek then takes his leave for Nanjing, leaving the job to Bai Chongxi who will supervise a coup in Shanghai. In a vain attempt Chen Duxiu tells the CCP to ease up on the Anti-Chiang Kai-Shek stuff. Then its announced to them that Chen Duxiu had managed to form a deal with Wang Jingwei. Chiang Kai-Shek send word from Nanjing to carry out the purge, in a very “execute order 66 fashion”.  April the 12th takes a wild turn in Shanghai. In the early morning a signal is raised over a warship anchored near the Gaochang temple. Hundreds of well armed Green Gang, Triads and some secret agents wearing blue shorts and white cloth  armbands with a black gongs on them, dispersed from the French concession in several cars. From 1 to 5am they attacked the picketing workers in Zhabei, Nanshi, Huxi, Wusong, Hongkou and other districts. The workers resisted immediately causing fierce street battles to break out. The 26th Army of the NRA, an old Sun Chuanfang unit that recently defected, came to forcibly confiscate guns while stating they were “mediating an internal strife amongst the workers”. Over 2700 armed workers in Shanghai were disarmed. More than 120 were killed with another 180 injured. The Shanghai General Labor Union club and all their associated pickets in the districts were occupied. Within the foreign concessions, foreign military and police forces arrested more than 1000 CCP members and workers who were immediately handed over to Chiang Kai-Shek's men. On the morning of the 13th, the workers from Shanghai's tobacco, silk factories, trams, municipal administration, postal services, sailors and various other industries went on strike. Over 200,000 workers took to the streets and the Shanghai General Labor Union held a mass rally in Qingyun Road Square in Zhabei with over 100,000 participants. They held a quick conference calling for resolutions. The first resolution was to hand over their weapons. Secondly those who destroyed their unions should be severely punished. Third the families of those killed needed to be compensated. Fourth protests should be made against the imperialists within the concessions. Fifth a telegram needed to be sent to the central government, then whole nation and world to demand assistance. Lastly the military authorities should be responsible for protecting the Shanghai trade unions. After the conference, the masses marched upon the headquarters of the 2nd division of the 26th army along Baoshan road to petition for the release of their comrades and for their weapons to be returned to them. They marched for a kilometer and upon reaching the Sandeli area of Baoshan road, soldiers of the 2nd division rushed out and opened fire upon them killing more than 100 on the spot. It was said Baoshan road was flooded with blood. That afternoon Chiang Kai-Sheks forces occupied the Shanghai General Labor Union and General Command of the Shanghai workers. They closed down and disbanded numerous revolutionary organizations and carried out searches and murders. Within 3 days after the Shanghai incident, more than 300 Shanghai CCP members were killed, another 500 were arrested and 5000 went “missing”. Like I said in the previous podcast on this very subject, I will leave it to you as to what missing meant. On the 15th of april the Kuomintang in Guangzhou launched their own coup. On that day more than 2000 CCP members and their supporters were arrested, 200 trade unions were closed. This all would b followed by similar activities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Fujian and Guangxi where CCP members were purged. The NPA in the north would likewise crack down on communists. Li Dazhao had been placed on the Beiyang governments list of most wanted back in 1926 following the March 18th massacre. Since then he was hiding in the Soviet Embassy in Beijing, continuing to lead political maneuvers against the warlords. When the first united front collapsed as a result of Chiang Kai-Sheks purges, Zhang Zuolin ordered troops to raid the Soviet embassy. Li Dazhao, his wife and daughter were all arrested. Among 19 other communists, Li Dazhao was executed on April 28th of 1927 by strangulation. One of the behemoths who ushered in the New Culture Movement and was a founder of the CCP had become one of its greatest martyrs. The first united front was no more and in response to this the CCP declared "Chiang Kai-shek has become an open enemy of the national revolution, a tool of imperialism, and the culprit of the white terror of massacring workers, peasants and revolutionary masses”. This was followed by a call to mobilize, unite and form a solid front to fight the warlords and KMT. In May of 1927 the Communist International issued “the May Emergency Directive” to the CCP. (1) Without land revolution, victory is impossible; without land revolution, the Kuomintang Central Committee will become a pitiful plaything in the hands of unreliable generals. Excessive behavior must be opposed, but not by the army, but through the peasant associations. (2) It is necessary to make concessions to artisans, merchants and small landowners, and to unite with these strata. Only the land of large and medium-sized landowners should be confiscated; the land of officers and soldiers should not be touched. (3) Some old leaders of the KMT Central Committee will waver and compromise. We should recruit more new leaders of workers and peasants from below to join the KMT Central Committee and renew the KMT's upper echelons. (4) Mobilize 20,000 Communist Party members and 50,000 revolutionary workers and peasants in Hunan and Hubei to form several new armies and build our own reliable army. (5) A revolutionary military tribunal headed by prominent Kuomintang and non-Communists should be established to punish those officers who persecute workers and peasants.  Wang Jingwei obtained this document from Luo Yi, the representative of the Communist International. The high-ranking officials of the Kuomintang believed that this was the Communist International's armed seizure of power and they were determined to purge the party. Thus began the Wuhan-Nanjing war. However as we saw, Wang Jingwei would perform his own purge of the communists on May 21st as he found out the Soviets were pushing the CCP to seize control over his regime. In order to resist the KMT's massacres, or as the CCP put it “the white terror”, the CCP Central Committee reorganized itself on July 12th of 1927. Chen Duxiu and other early CCP leaders who had insisted on compromising with the KMT were dismissed from their posts and labeled right-wing capitulationists. The CCP formed an alliance with left wing KMT members forming a quasi second front where they planned an armed uprising in Nanchang hoping it would spark a large peasant uprising. They were led by He Long and Zhou Enlai. He Long a ethnic Tujia and Hunanese native was born to a poor peasant family. He received no formal education and worked as a cowherder during his youth. When he was 20 he killed a local Qing tax assessor who had killed his uncle for defaulting on his taxes. From this point he fled and became an outlaw, apparently his signature weapon was a butcher knife. In 1918 he raised a volunteer revolutionary army aligned with an emerging Hunanese warlord. By 1920 he joined the NRA and began brushing shoulders with CCP members. During the northern expedition he commanded the 1st division, 9th corps and served under Zhang Fakui. By late 1926 he joined the CCP. When the first united front collapsed he joined up with the CCP and took command of the 20th corps, 1st column of the Red Army. Zhou Enlai was born in Huai'an of Jiangsu in 1898. He was born to a scholarly family, many of them officials, but like many during the late 19th century in China suffered tremendously. Zhou Enlai was adopted by his fathers youngest brother Zhou Yigan who was also ill with tuberculosis. The adoption was more of a way to cover Zhou Yigans lack of an heir. Zhou Yigan died soon after and Zhou Enlai was raised by his widow Chen. He received a traditional literacy education. Zhou Enlai's biological mother died when he was 9 and Chen when he was 10. He then fell into the care of his uncle Zho Yigeng in Fengtian. Zhou Enlai continued his education at Nankai Middle School who were adopting an educational model used at the Philipps academy in the US. Zhou Enlai excelled at debate, acting, drama the sort of skill sets needed for public service. Like many students of his day he went to Japan in 1917 for further studies. He tried to learn Japanese to enter Japanese schools but failed to do so. He also faced a lot of racism in Japan, prompting him to become quite anti japanese. While in Japan he became very interested in news about the Russian Revolution. This led him to read works from Chen Duxiu.  In 1919 he returned to Tianjin where it is said he led student protests during the May Fourth movement, though a lot of modern scholars don't believe he did. Zhou Enlai then became a university student at Nankai and an activist. He led the Awakening Society and would find himself arrested. During this time he became familiar with Li Dazhao and Chen Duxiu. Then in 1920 he went to study in Marseille. In 1921 he joined a Chinese Communist Cell while in Paris. By 1922 he helped found a European branch of the CCP. When the first United Front began he joined the KMT and in 1924 was summoned back to China. He joined the Political department of the Whampoa military academy. He was made Whampoa's chief political officer, but he also took the post as secretary of the CCP of Guangdong, Guangxi and served as a Major-General. Soon he became the secretary of the CCP's Guangdong Provincial committee. In 1925 he got his first taste of military command against Chen Jiongming, accompanying the Whampoa cadets as a political officer. When Chen Jiongming regrouped and attacked Guangzhou again that year, Chiang Kai-Shek personally appointed Zhou Enlai as director of the 1st corps political department. Soon after he was appointed a KMT party representative as chief commissar of the 1st corps. With the newfound position he began appointing communists as commissars in 4 out of the 5 corps divisions. However his work at Whampoa came to an end during the Zhongshan Warship incident as Chiang Kai-Shek began purging communists from high ranking positions. Whampoa was a significant part of his career providing him with skills and a network. Until the first united fronts collapse he worked to form numerous armed CPP groups. He was sent to Shanghai where he was part of the effort to stage an uprising there. During the massacre he was arrested and nearly killed if not for the work of Zhao Shu, a representative of the 26th army who released him. From there he fled to Hankou where he participated in the CCP's 5th national congress. When Wang Jingwei unleashed his purge, Zhou Enlai went into hiding. When the CCP called for an uprising in Nanchang, Zhou Enlai as a CCP secretary was in a unique position to lead it. The CCP designated Zhou Enlai, Li Lisan, Yun Daiying and Peng Pai to form a Front Committee. The troops available to them were the 24th and 10th divisions of the 11th army of the 2nd front army, the entire 20th army, 73rd and 75th regiment of the 25th division of the 4th army and part of the officer training corps of the 3rd army of the 5th front army led by Zhu De. He Long was the commander in chief of the 2nd front army, Ye Ting was his deputy and acting front line commander. Zhou Enlai was the chief of staff with Liu Bocheng as director of the political directorate. At this time, the main force of the 3rd Army of the 5th Front Army of the Kuomintang Wuhan Government was located in Zhangshu, Ji'an; the main force of the 9th Army was located in Jinxian and Linchuan; and the main force of the 6th Army was advancing to Nanchang via Pingxiang; the rest of the 2md Front Army was located in Jiujiang; only the 5th Front Army Guard Regiment and parts of the 3rd, 6th, and 9th Armies, totaling more than 3,000 people, were stationed in Nanchang and its suburbs. The CCP Front Committee decided to launch an uprising on August 1 before the arrival of reinforcements. At 2:00am on August 1st the Nanchang uprising began. The 1st and 2nd division of the 20th army launched attacks against the defenders of the Old Fantai Yamen, Dashiyuan street and the  Niuxing railway station. Meanwhile the 24th division of the 11th army attacked the Songbaixiang catholic church, Xinyingfang and Baihuazhou. The bloody battle lasted until dawn inflicting 3000 casualties and capturing more than 5000 small arms of various types, 700,000 rounds of ammunition and a few cannons. During the afternoon the 73rd regiment of the 25th division station at Mahuiling, 3 battalions of the 75th regiment and a machine gun company of the 74th regiment led by Nie Rongzhen and Zhou Shidi revolted and came to Nanchang by the 2nd of august.  For the moment it seemed the CCP had achieved a grand success at Nanchang. The CCP then began proclaiming Chiang Kai-Shek and Wang Jingwei had betrayed the revolution and that of Sun Yat-Sens three principles by choosing to side with the imperialists and warlords. Meanwhile the CCP aligned military units began to gather in Nanchang requiring a reorganization. It was decided the uprising army would continue to use the designation of 2nd front army of the NRA with He Long serving as its commander in chief and Ye Ting as his deputy. Ye Ting would also command the 11th army consisting of the 24th, 25th and 10th divisions, Nie Rongzhen would be his CCP party representative; He Long would command the 20th Army consisting of the 1st and 2nd divisions with Liao Qianwu as his CCP party representative. Zhou Enlai with Zhu De as his deputy would lead the 9th army with Zhu Kejing as his CCP party representative. Altogether they were 20,000 strong and now very well armed. There was to be a great celebration, it seemed this was the grand moment the CCP would take the center stage.

If you are still hungry after that, give my personal channel a look over at The Pacific War Channel at Youtube, it would mean a lot to me. The Chinese Civil War had officially just begun. Chiang Kai-Shek and Wang Jingwei purged their respective regimes of communists unleashing a white terror. In a scramble to survive the CCP reorganized itself and sought revenge with their first target being Nanchang. From here until 1949, the CCP and KMT would fight for the future of China.

He speaks Mandarin and throughout his career he has focused on studying and analyzing China and its military.  In this conversation, we talk about why the risk of a war with China is much higher than most people think and why Mike thinks that we are on a trajectory towards it. How is the Navy prepared for it, how is it adapting to the changing character of war or why the U.S. is losing to China in information warfare. 

Israël koopt Google-advertenties in om de grootste VN-hulporganisatie in Palestijns gebied (UNRWA) zwart te maken. Wie met zoektermen zoals 'UNRWA' of 'UNRWA USA' googelt, krijgt vaak als eerste zoekresultaat een Israëlische website te zien met de naam 'UNRWA Neutrality compromised'. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Volgens UNRWA USA, een Amerikaanse nonprofit die geld ophaalt voor de VN-organisatie, is Israël al maanden bezig met de campagne. Daarmee wil het land potentiële UNRWA-donateurs ervan overtuigen om juist niet te doneren omdat UNRWA volgens Israël niet te vertrouwen is en nauwe banden zou hebben met Hamas.  Google wil niet reageren op de zaak, maar laat wel weten dat overheden vrij zijn om advertenties in te kopen, mits die aan de advertentievoorwaarden van het bedrijf voldoen. Het Israëlische ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken heeft bevestigd dat het adverteert via Google, maar wil niet ingaan op de specifieke campagne.  Verder in deze Tech Update: Techconcern IBM sluit twee onderzoeksafdelingen in China Chinese automakers zetten vol in op mensachtige robots die fabrieksmedewerkers moeten vervangen See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Grant Newsham, Senior Research Fellow at Japan Forum for Strategic Studies I discussed the Chinese aggression against the Philippines and the lack of American support to our treaty ally in a moment of need and whether that is contributing to further efforts by the Chinese to assert their dominion over the Filipinos and their territory and possibly to prompt the people of the Philippines to pursue a separate peace with their mortal enemies and ours in the CCP. We also discussed what's happening in Thailand and Japan, and with respect to the United Front Work Department, all topics of great concern as they involve the possibly lethal emboldening of China Chinese, the CCP, and the Chinese Communist Party.   Elliot Chodff, Political and Military Analyst, Hamartzim Educational Services Major Elliot Chodff of the Israel Defense Forces spoke with me in his personal capacity as a podcaster and duty expert on developments on the ground in Israel's wars for its very survival, specifically about pressures the United States has been bringing to bear on Israel to agree to a ceasefire that is not in Israel's interest under present circumstances and certainly not under the terms being offered, well demanded really, by the United States government.  We also spoke about the reasons why Hamas, interestingly enough, is not participating in the ceasefire negotiations and is quite happy to have America compel Israel to surrender effectively to that terrorist organization. Trevor Loudon, Creator of The Documentary The Enemies Within Trevor Loudon gave us a short course on the phenomenon of the Chinese Communist Party United Front Work Department's influence operations in America. The extent to which they have been operating for many decades, but in particular, disclosures from 2016 about the Well, not only the extent of what's afoot but its explicitly partisan purposes.  We also discussed the implications of these various Chinese efforts to subvert our elections in the upcoming fall contests.

On today's show, we are going to look at reports about private messages from the leader of Hamas, criticisms of Europe's outdated approach to China, a former CIA officer and FBI linguist pleading guilty to spying for China, and a potential plot from ISIS-K foiled in the US. Then we will move to our Patreon only show “Extra Shot” we will look at Europe on high alert to Russian sabotage, Russian backed online efforts to disrupt the Olympics, a Fugitive sheriff from Florida who has a new career as an online propagandist in Russia and we will wrap up looking at a piece about Chinese espionage efforts in the west.   You will need to be a Patreon subscriber to get access to Extra Shot.

from any mass mandates are going away from any mandatory vaccination you know showing your vaccine card to be able to work throwing away from working from home the going away from you school restrictions or mandates for children anything at all that they're going away from all these things into me that that the part of that that's so alarming when you know you will you think about the I states that sound it feels like we you know that a country forever right it feels like the world has never existed without the America has had especially with the way that you know Western culture is influence the world but this is the case with the world of fear where we are one of the fairly as newest countries in the world write what were what 300 years old or so right in 1776 2022 we don't do the math where a very new country and into see that you know within several of you know several hundred years few hundred years not even several right we completely lost away right we are now you know that that that we are what we so feared right we are our government now has become one that is more totalitarian than the one that hundreds of thousands if not millions of people from all over the world fleet from fleeing from you know that the The Queens monarchy and the totalitarian ways that they had it in the UK and in Great Britain and you know the area so it's crazy to me and into think about what what what our founding fathers think what what would they think right now they were real George Washington's rose up from the dead and you know was sitting here watching the discussion of Joe Biden talking about other than a key keep restrictions and how you need 1/3 booster and you know all of these restrictions are remaining in place and yet England the Queen of England and parliament and in this prime minister decided to completely relieve their citizens of any you know of their totalitarian you know decisions for them I couldn't I can imagine what they would think I absolutely cannot fathom how they would feel knowing that while you know that today's Great Britain is is completely mandate free United States still is imposing vaccine mandates for healthcare workers which is a whole another conversation that we really should get into the fact that that's you know that that the healthcare workers that that the individuals that that the single sector of the country who is educated specifically on making medical decisions is no longer able to make medical decisions not only you know further patients but but specifically for themselves for their own medical decisions for the for their body and I know a lot of people were affected by this you know nurses doctors and surgeons there's a will that is so many people who are who are going to affect this and in and truly with us to come down to you know talking about the chain of events that connect happen with this in a come down to us is healthcare workers no longer being employee who hold that belief to be true and in art manipulated bolt based on your finances or or job position there can if they're not at work for the hospital settings and in order to have a shortage of 11 if talking there and there to complain about that shortage in an opinion on the people were unvaccinated will know it was because your dumb ass decided to let people who are vaccinated and covert positive still work but you won't even let the people who had covert and have immunity and have antibodies you are unvaccinated not work who aren't sick it it actually makes no sense so crazy to me the fact that were sitting here watching you know the Prime Minister Boris Johnson talk about their done with any mandates done with any restrictions and you on that same day are president of the United States right now is sitting in front of a group of reporters and saying how you know you need to get boosted right it it's crazy so let's go ahead and will dive into that conversational quick let's go ahead and him and watch some of the videos of the Biden you know kind of compare and contrast you know that party in the pub with Boris Johnson to what were going to see here with Biden because it is kind of a stark difference and when we go into these you know this these questions and answers with Joe Biden it is truly you know it's it's it's all concerning to me is no other way to put it so concerning to me that somebody will with that what little mental capacity and capabilities of this man has left to even finish a sentence let alone make world changing decisions in a time of were more on the cusp of of potential war between Russia and Ukraine and the effects of this can have on NATO and the effect this can I have on the United States and you know the fact that this man is in power mid in the IBCs nonpower righties be manipulated in and he couldn't you know it if you didn't have these cue cards in front of a maneuver to see that on his video you're in a see if everything the time he has a list of people that he supposed to call on for questions in the he obviously it probably is a probably because he Artie has it in front of him and you can tell is looking at this piece of paper to answer these questions so but what you know what's jumping to well at present Biden on the coronavirus we are tragically approaching nearly 1 million Americans who died and I'd like to ask you why it is during your three and half hour virtual summit in November with the Chinese president he didn't press for transparency and also whether that has anything to do with your sons involvement in an investment firm controlled by Chinese state owned entities the answer is that we did did reach the question of transparency I spent a lot of time with she the fact is that they're just not just not being transparent transparency on the coronavirus origins yes so Biden just said no that the original question asked by this guy wasn't in fact a soft focus towards the end we didn't wasn't calling specific young people they were kind of taken a Mike but he said to him you know why why did you not push for transparency and he wasn't very specific in the initial question obviously but that's why he elaborated mid response by Joe Biden to make sure that he is sure that he wants to answer this question this way so what this reporter said was why did you not push for transparency regarding the origins of coven 19 and does it have to do with the fact that your son is taking millions of dollars from Chinese corporations which are directly attracted attached to the Chinese communist party why did you push for transparency regarding this leaking from a lab is what he just asked is it because your son is taking millions of dollars from this countries government and he says I did push for transparency and then will wash this year and he and he asked him again right hey can you clarify I mean on coalbed the origins and he says yes I asked for transparency and they didn't give it to us so even Joe Biden and as he just showed in the way that he answer this question Joe Biden the president of the United States is now admitted to questioning the origins of coven 19 and believes enough to ask China Chinese officials if it came from a lab in Wuhan is what he just admitted to all while every a single person is still being censored for talking about this on social media all while you know people within Senate and Congress are being ridiculed for even mentioning the idea of a coming from a lab fee all while media outlets are key-wording you know pod casters injured Joe Rogan's and in imminent sub stack writers and who are talking about these things honestly are the president of the states just said that he believes it enough to ask the leader of the Chinese communist party whether or not it leaked from the lab and he said they won't give us transparency and then says not should about Hunter Biden obviously but let's let's watch it through transparency on the coronavirus origins yes and you did do have virtual summit is the reason your press staff was unaware of that and what did you say to the Chinese president and they weren't with me the entire time look I made it clear I thought that China had an obligation to be more forthcoming exactly what the source of the virus was in working yes so there's a full answer he just admitted to specifically questioning the Chinese Communist Party regarding the origins of covert 19 now where do we go from here what is that mean for all of the censorship all of the narrative enforcers all of the fact checkers that have come in and say that this is a unfounded conspiracy theory right are we going to fact check those people do they have to tell the truth down to they have to redact that information and correct your information say hey the president of EI states actually looking at this seriously maybe we should two or were they also look at the whole time and because their narrative has broke down so much and because of those military documents that were released by project Veritas recently have they had the step back and say yes we are investigating this and were investigating a very seriously because you know when you guys said it you know it must've been wrong but until we say it's truth is not truth that's why you can't do those things in Avon still doubt in people sold much by doing that right that you know the media companies that have me know that that the fact checkers the narrative enforcers have have lost the people they've lost the people over pushing these narratives that they knew the entire time were incorrect or factually incorrect and then beat you with you no censorship stick if you said shut about it where do we go from here write what is this me and if he gets the coal it in a product in a in a and in front of reporters of every single media outlet every single media major media outlet that's allowed to be in their right is in their and he's answering this question talking about the origins of covert 19 this should be everywhere and I guarantee you this from what I saw this is not a specific question that everybody was raising answer questions about so far and then maybe they will and hopefully that will but I haven't seen this clip anywhere you I seen a few clips, I had to watch this entire thing an hour and 10 minutes this is an hour and 10 minutes and and 30 you know 34 seconds now is the end of it but I'm B was on minute he was answering a question so you want to watch the whole thing but none of this information is anywhere and nobody's mention the fact that the president of the United States just admitted to questioning the Chinese communist party regarding the origins of covert 19 that coming from a lab in Wuhan but if I put this spoke about Instagram tomorrow or wherever tomorrow you know that is can I get no views to them to get shadow band for even using those words right even still today after a present address the situation in front of all of the major media companies but you can't talk about right you're not allowed to say those words right you're not allowed to question her narrative it's unbelievable so the Nexium wanted to show you here is a little bit of a Freudian slip I think with Biden IIII do think that there was a little bit more to what the statement is him him will talk about what it could been here so so watch this clip and in and see if you see what I see let's let's look at 12 if you don't mind you counted the number of Americans who are now fully vaccinated with two shots but some of your own medical advisor say if people aren't fully protected unless they had that third shot a booster why hasn't this White House changed the definition of fully vaccinated to include that third booster shot is it because the numbers of fully vaccinated Americans would suddenly look a lot less know that all is this this this this is because this is become clear clear and every time I speak of I say if you've been vaccinated get your booster shot everybody get the booster shot it's the envelope the optimum protection you could have protected very well with two shots if the supplies are anyway protected did you see it to see what he just said there was a parent a parenting of the interview with the Pfizer CEOs directly who said if you have two shots you have virtually no immunity but if you have three shots you you got a good chance and that's why he said Pfizer there make no mistake about it this man just did that this man being the president of the art students just had a Freudian slip a subconscious slip from him at some point seeing that clip Joe Biden at some point saw the president the CEO of Pfizer talking about how two shots makes you not very immune and in three shots that booster really does it for you but then he backtracks on it that's why he is soon as he said Pfizer he realizes that he messes up and he immediately starts to backtrack because you know in and in the you have to kind of you know understand that what he is going on in his brain is not generally what going on to me and yours is not this continual train of thought and all this that you hear from him is him you know this the same way that you know I forget the name of word and you know somebody has to interject and tell it to me because I'm you know have a you know a brain far this man's entire life is a brain for everything that comes out of his mouth he has no idea what he's gonna say next that's why you see there was there were some slip-ups between his is conversation about Russia there were some slip-ups about his conversation regarding obviously in this case the Pfizer and the boosters and I truly do believe I truly do believe that Joe Biden saw the clip saw the clip of the CEO of Pfizer stating that two vaccines were are now ineffective and that there is a need for 1/3 for any effectiveness because the Pfizer CEO said the rubric gives it very little protection if if any at all about two vaccines but three vaccines that booster is really going to get you there although what we found out now is the third vaccine the boost that the boost as they're calling it which is the stupidest marketing ploy in the in history the boost it really gives you immunity right now that this one until it doesn't and then we cavalrymen have another one for you and you better take that one to routes are not fully vaccinated and in now year you're on the team of the conspiracy theorists so let's look at that again the number and actually watch that Pfizer quit because I think this is important I are truly 100% believe that you know kind of breaking down the way that this man's monkey brain is working over there or not lack there of working with it what he just did was reference that video with the Pfizer CEO and you'll see why in a second if you haven't seen the video ready to watch us again make note of his speech pattern here make note of how he uses the word Pfizer specifically and make note of the sentence structure because he almost directly parrots the Pfizer CEO so watch it one more time and then we'll watch the Pfizer CEO specifically talking about it and then we'll talk about that it's the level of the optimum and every time I speak of I say if you been vaccinated get your booster shot everybody get the booster shot this the envelope the optimum protection you could have your protected very well with two shots if the supervisor anyway checked but you are better protected with the Bush definition right now five and if you didn't just hear that that was the reporter reminding him the actual question because he went off in a tangent referencing this this Pfizer CEO statement regarding two boosters he and he tries to correct this Pfizer statement because obviously there was some conversation around how this is you know fueling the disbelief within the vaccine in in his war room with his constituents with his advisers so you see him trying to you know subconsciously you know I don't know if this was his doing or someone else's but he either had a Freudian slip and he is mentioning this Pfizer CEOs conversation where he says that to vaccines do nothing and that you need 1/3 and he tries to combat the CEO of this company while mentioning this company's name and save is incorrect so he's directly and I don't know whether it was a Freudian slip and he was just trying to me was parroting the CEO statement just in a way that he thought was positive instead of negative or if he was directly trying to combat that no I don't think that he is smart enough to do that I think that he was spit in and you know it's it's hard with Joe Biden that you know he he's it it's hard to look at him and not have a little bit of empathy for this old man who has no right being in this position who is obviously severely declining mentally and it you know is dementia or Alzheimer's or whatever it is that he has is going to progress as a result of all the stress and knowing all these things and I truly do default in of the fact that his wife is allowing him to go through all this is is horrible because you anyways back back to it let's let's go ahead and watch that the Pfizer CEOs statement here and then I did actually have to go to I had to go to rumble for this and into to get this video because you obviously cannot find on YouTube with the and although the three doses of optional for very limited production equipment the city does the the author reasonable protection against hospitalization and best in a given phase is a very good thank less protection against infection now we are working on their own new exertion for version 1.1 with the Doppler thought that would cover all is well and the gifts we are waiting to get the final results deliver suit will be ready in March so we know we know the first two didn't work but this third one is going to work and didn't know we know that one's going to work so were coming out with another one so just adjust or talk again about that speech pattern with Joe Biden in and how this was subconsciously or consciously that's less believable to me I was subconsciously referenced by our president let's look at that first name again them go back and look at your Bidens I think this is is is it you have to kind of break it down this way because it was you know 10 seconds of a statement so real quick we know the three different doses of optional for very limited production in Frederick three though he didn't the authors reasonable protection against hospitalization and best leaving engineers is very and less protection against ear infections now if you go back and listen to Joe Biden talk about it one last time here check did very well with two shuffle of the year booster shot everybody get the booster shot this the envelope the optimum protection you could have protected very well with two shots if the supplies are annually protected but you are better protected with the bush and and so you see it that's exactly what is happened there he was in his mind trying to kind of is wires were cross but he was referencing this Pfizer CEO statement that's been via you pusher on the Internet with millions and millions of you that by now I guarantee it where he is saying that you know two shots looking to do it for you what will building with a will Pfizer in a neutralizer in there because Ito has his wires are crossed here but I found that to be really interesting that there was this little Freudian slip and you see him immediately backtrack and immediately stop us to a sentence and immediately change the topic once he says the word Pfizer because he realized what he was doing interesting don't know exactly what to make of it like I said it could have been the subconscious thing could've been a conscious thing but either way that's exactly what just happened there alright so the next thing to look at is going to be one of the statements that he made regarding you know whether or not he's outperformed him it what his expectations are so it was watch this clip here inflation is up to your signature domestic legislation is stalled in Congress if you hours from now the Senate never consented to deal with voting rights and voting of buddy before much later going to fail color 19 is still taking the lives of 1500 Americans every day and the nations divisions are just as wrong as they were a year ago did you overpromise to the American public what you can achieve in your first year in office and how you plan to course correct going forward are you such a look I didn't overpromise food but I have probably enough outperform what anybody thought would happen the fact of the matter is that Ruth situation where we have the conflict so he says I have not come I've actually outperformed what anybody thought it yet because we thought you'd be dead by now Joe we thought you'd be dead by now and in that we thought Pamela Harris was good to be part of the power you're right you absolutely outperformed all expectations because we absolutely thought you had much less time on the clock than you showed us with the last 365 day but other than that he doesn't even go into it into why he believes that he's outperformed you know his expectations are to be the only way that that's true because he has of is it you know they they pull it up on on disclosure run the 4110 that was watching earlier that his approval ratings at 40% which a 40% approval rating for president basically means you know that the widely accepted you know in the political science widely accepted percentage for for basically a completely ineffective president is like 41% is generous and 43% is like yet you're not can anything past nobody believes in you you don't have this way no you see it later on when he's talking about Russia that that everything that this man says is just you know pillows day that he's throwing in a in a gunfight the fact that he wants to sit there and smugly say they know I've outperformed everybody's expectations. Yeah maybe your right hip but not in the way that you think no so I just thought that was funny they that he thought that you know he's done so incredible of a job at this point that you know we we don't even have to talk about it because he doesn't talk about it in this entire interview did the whole time he shows you how bad he is tactfully at answering questions and this is the reason he's been hidden away and in the video some probably some you know scientific institution whether you know testing all sorts of you know chemicals on him to see if they can bring back his livelihood or his liveliness and ability to speak or actually maintain a sentence structure but there's a reason they bring keeping us away from him for so long throughout this entire year because this is probably one of the only times I've seen him outright stand and answer questions or knowing all of his his poor operator tries at being funny like oh you're an optimist highlight no I get it but still need it it's it's sad to see it in and it's crazy to me that you know he did the part of the best thing when you when you read about leadership and you read about the qualities of a leader in anything you you have to have read about leadership and if you do if you read about any books about leadership you know any books Jaco will link you know he has it in the title for you extreme ownership right if things aren't going the way that you want them to taking extreme ownership for those things that have not gone the ways that you want them to tends to put you in a better light in the public eye right but sitting here and acting like there's no problem saying you outperformed all expectations when you have a 40% approval rating one of the lowest of any president ever especially one who got more votes than any other president in the entire history of America doesn't look good right so in note to me it is it's really telling it's really telling how you know it his is his poor ability to to lead and in his terrible way of of trying to you know in insight some kind of like confidence in the public I don't know what he was trying to do here you know is that the public would've what you know in anything he does a certain percentage of the right is going to disagree and say that he's doing terrible and no but if you would came out here and said I know things are going great I know you know inflation as is unbelievably high I know were on the cusp of watching Russia just obliterate Ukraine and working to do nothing about it I know that you're paying more in gas than you have since I was in office last you know I know these things I understand these things I'm doing the best that I can today to try and make the situation better for you better for our country and better for your family but doesn't do that he says I know everything's great everything is great don't don't look at those numbers to look at the statistics unless they come from my website no don't don't look at those those are real what's real is what I'm telling you and everything is great right the people are smarter than that people don't appreciate being gas lit by the president of the United States we know things are going great were well aware of this Joe Biden where were we very clearly no you are not doing a great job we very clearly that we leave in the polls the polls that they put up in this video say that you have a 40% approval rating how is that exceeding all expectations what what was your expectation for your approval rating especially after beginning more votes than any president history imagine that one year one year into getting more votes than any president in history 80 whatever million votes that he got and you have one of the lowest approval ratings of any president ever how does that work how does it work how how does that even happen right and then for you to sit here stare at a camera securities people asking real people asking you these questions real Americans concerned about the on the job you're losing because they're they're not willing to you know bend on their moral compass for what they inject into their body real people were concerned about how to pay it for five dollars a gallon especially if Russia invades Ukraine the gastric prices may skyrocket how are you gonna stand in front of a group of people it did not even just a group of people obvious is hundred people this is the entire world is watching us and pollutants watching us earnestly in front of everybody all of the government leaders of the entire world and say I am doing great close your eyes don't pay attention all the stuff is happening I'm doing wonderful all you have to do is believe me in in in it so amazing to me that what he ran on was unity what he ran on was you know the divisiveness of the Trump presidency and you know America has been divided for the last four years and I'm the one to bring them together but all he's done every speech every every quote that I've seen from him regarding you know when he is talked about the January 6 Museum to her right when when he discussed that no when he discussed president from calling him a loser this was recently this is like a month ago is not even a month ago to three weeks ago and then cut comes on here in the inns even still pointing fingers to to to trump today saying that he is the reason that he can't get anything past no ownership at all and in a night I gotta take this philosophy in the Sabia site engine for you but I cannot take this philosophy that you know it even if it's not 100% my fault even if there's there's there's things that I credit it couldn't have changed about a situation and things that were out of my control in in in things that you know happened that I couldn't have corrected an inmate a better outcome with used it to me a full philosophically you know at least in the way that I need to live my life or at least are in the framework that I need to operate in went when I'm you know in a day-to-day basis to try to move the needle of my life towards a better direction instead of a worse direction is always taking ownership always taking ownership of the things that you do even if it is specially for the pricing I state the people are asking you policy questions but even if not even if it's about parenting or even if it's about you know work or even ask about you know your business or you know whenever you know passions that you're trying to grow whatever that is if things are going your way you will have to take ownership 100% have to take ownership for those things because if you don't that is out of your control there's nothing you can do even if there is there is things that are out of your control within that situation the outcome always has to be your fault because it is not your fault when things go wrong it's not your fault when things go right and you can never take ownership for the good things so in order to take ownership for the good things that happen you in or in order to be able to actually celebrate when things go right in your life you have to absolutely take ownership when things go bad in your life and if you don't you can always use that scapegoat you always have a scapegoat you never have to look deep into yourself and then kind of take a in a fine tooth comb to your personality or or or to your belief systems or to your work ethic or or to your you know whatever it is that you need to work on your never going to be able to work on those things if you don't address that there there right and this is from my coparenting perspective this is from an individual perspective this is from a no but but but even more so if you're the President of the United States you have to take ownership when things don't go right and if you don't people are to believe in you because when are you to tell me that you're doing a bad job would you ever tell me if you're doing a bad job right if if inflations up whatever percentage of this right now and gas is up you know to four dollars and you know the cost of me and then literally everything else within the eye states are skyrocketing and shelves are empty but the price in the eye states sitting or saying everything's going great okay if every if you're doing your job and everything is going right then what is wrong what what what could be the problem then if it's not you the present United States who is at the helm who is who has the reins of the country or Lisa supposed to it is not you than what is it because if it's a systematic flaw within the way that our country is being operated outside of the presidency which as you know obviously with whether governments run and how many layers there are is probably more likely that there's obviously a some systematic problems but the only variable that changed between when things were going well with our economy and are in a worldwide no buy-in and in our relationships with Russia and China were going well was it was not that long ago almost approximately to the day 360 with exactly 365 days ago and if you think that is a coincidence that less than you know 300 or so day 365 days within the did the presidency changing that Russia has for the last however many months I'm sure it's been at least 6 to 8 to 10 probably since the day he took office been planning this attack because they know that the president Biden doesn't have the balls to do anything about it he said to send troops there is a disease but you know this Sunday is probably drew a beautiful bowl should ask picture of it in no a stick figure for Vladimir Putin that sitting above his desk you know he can't do anything right he can't do these things because the people that are controlling and will allow it rights of the SSA here in Goa were going to give sanctions and you'll see that when we look at the very next topic which is going to be the Russia situation because in I'm rushing to take a little bit deeper of a look into the Russia situation because it's not something I'm super familiar with why these things are happening why they're going to war allegedly no obviously allegedly because is not generally the reason that are given the public whether going to war, in the last week they said there was there was some proposal or some CIA document or governmental agency that said they were concerned about Russia committing a false flag and using it as an excuse to go after Ukraine I'm that was last week and now they're saying it's a for sure thing we believe is going to go into Ukraine sorted a dive into that and in just a moment here but you know to me watching this you know the President of the United States sit here and in the and push off any responsibility any responsibility all for the things that happen within our country specifically in the last year is terrifying to me not terrifying because obviously you know to to me at it's more so just shows his you know it is terrifying I guess because Russia is about to go to war with Ukraine for after the just that it's almost a for sure thing they believe is in a good war and whether they go into war a little bit or a lot of it is independent our reaction not don't go to war right so the fact that he's pushing off any and all responsibility any responsibility for things that have gone wrong over the last year should be concerning because at what point will you take response building if you're not taking response ability publicly are you taking response ability privately at least do you believe that you can change the way that were the direction of our country is going because if you don't leave leave office goal it let somebody come in office was actually to make a change in the change for the better with the right intentions not the intentions are to make third drug addict pedophile disgusting son the most money with so many who's gonna come in and do what's right for the country some who's gonna come in with beliefs for where they actually want to see our country go police or where they want to see their their their children lives and in the direction of their children's lives go and in education systems and in it and the problems that are really within our country it be be push in a better direction in a factual item he shown that he's been an officer's benefit in some form of politics for hundred and 65 years at this point no most of you know since the Jesus was president it it's it's crazy to me that that that nobody in and again I'm note and nothing anybody push back on this tea took no responsibility for any of the negative things and you can sit here and look at charts you can sit here and use math statistics real science data on facts to figure out that what he's done so far has been not good every major plan he promised to pass including the bill back better plan which is basically just Trojan horse to siphon money to to directly to the Chinese communist party by a getting out of Afghanistan in allowing the the Chinese government to make a deal with the Taliban to have the rights to all of the lithium deposits in Afghanistan one of the most lithium rich countries in the world and then in the same two months that you left Afghanistan submit a bill to allow for a $6000 tax grant to people working up by those lithium batteries from the Chinese, his party through electronic vehicles I wholeheartedly believe that's what the Afghanistan retreat was about the Afghanistan failure was about was relieving our duty to protect Afghanistan and allowing China to because they did that they they they made a deal with and what was it weeks not even of us leaving Afghanistan and not only did we do that but we left them how many billions of dollars worth of military equipment and then the China came in and specifically made a deal for all the lithium deposits and within two months the bill back but are planning to build back better plan it includes believe it $6000 grant federal grant tax money that you earned and paid our government they are basically just siphoning back to China so not only did they give them the lithium on the backs of the deaths of every military soldier who fought against Al Qaeda who fought against the Taliban who fought against ISIS in those areas on that that that that the the coffins of those who fought against the that the terrorists were over there there are now going to not only give them billions of dollars of the most advanced military equipment in the world then there going to spoonfeed China all of the lithium in Afghanistan and then they're going to buy it back from them at a $6000 per person grant of a yield or money that you paid the government for through taxes I don't know where that sentence started but I know this bill back but her stuff is bull ship crazy crazy to me that that was included in that bill and not written immediately within two months two months of the bill of of us leaving Afghanistan that build back better plan had that within the within so let's let's let's go into this a little bit let's find out why may be Russia is actually considering going to war or is going to go to war with Ukraine look at could possibly mean for NATO relationships what that could mean the United States and me and you and why Russia is even doing that in the first place so first were to watch the quick video of Biden talking about it them were in a read an article that I found that hopefully gives us some good and for information on so go ahead and watch it they in June you said was about Pres. Putin I think the last thing he wants now is a Cold War that since then of course you see them gather these troops hundred thousand troops around Ukraine the Secretary of State said today he thought he could invade it at any moment you seen the cyber attacks and you see the demand of the of a sphere of influence in which you would withdraw all American troops in nuclear weapons from what used to be the Soviet bloc so I'm wondering if you still think that the last thing he wants is a Cold War and has your view of him changed in the past few months and if it has and he does invade what would your posture be to really move back to the kind of containment policy that use also often when you were still in the Senate the answer is that I think he still does not want it is number two do I think you've test West test United States and NATO as significantly secure yes I think you will but I think will pay serious and dear price for that he doesn't think now cost ones can cost and I think you regret having done now whether or not I think that the how can I say this public for I think that he is dealing with what I believe he thinks is the most tragic thing that's happened to mother Russia and that Berlin wall came down the Empire has been lost near Broadus John Tschetter Soviet Union has been split home but think about what he had is it time zones burning 200 and will not freeze again naturally a situation where he has a lot of oil and gas but he is trying to find his place in the world between China and the West and so I'm not so sure that he has David I'm not so sure he has certain what is my guess is she will move in he has to do something and by the way I've indicated to the two things he said to me that he wants guarantees one is Ukraine 11 report NATO in two that NATO or the there will not be strategic weapon station in decree we can work out something in the second case attend and what he does long Russian line is well Russian border in the European area on the first piece we have a number of treaties international in Newark suggest that you get to choose who you want to be with but the likelihood that Ukraine is going to join NATO in the near term is not very likely based on watch for work they have to do in terms of democracy and a few other things going on and whether or not major allies in the West vote to bring Ukraine in right now so there's room to work if he wants to do the but I think as usual he's going to I probably should garnish I think it will hurt too bad Fayetteville so IA just kind of gave us why at least a roundabout way or maybe a snippet of what why this is happening and it sounds you know that that the things that he dissected and what Biden just said was well we may veto he wants to things from us in only we were knocking at give him everything he wants will make maybe will give him the second one the second one being you know not having NATO weapon eyes military or weapons in Ukraine specifically obviously because it may be a threat to Russia and then you know he says it was a week maybe we can sit down work that went out but but you know the first one he wants is that Ukraine will be a part of NATO and I think I think that were probably not to do that either so what he just said this reporter is working to give them everything that he wants to ensure no maybe not even to ensure that but just to give them everything he wants when I can fight back when I can do any thing about this were to give him everything he wants he decided he has to demands and working to fill them all like way to go so buddy buddy did kind of outline may be why this this is happening a little bit sounds like Hooton feels threatened by the idea of NATO having weapons in Ukraine or Ukraine being used two position weapons closer to Russia and Ukraine specifically having the opportunity to join NATO and I hopefully will find out in this article that I'm reading right after this that will read together why a specifically it's a problem if Ukraine goes to NATO and forgive me if you are you know much more educated on this topic I'm I'm glad you are but is not one that I've been following super close down even know where to find out hopefully how long this is even going on for this to be an issue but my very educated on so hopefully if you are educated on it was get educated together and if you are educated on it awesome let's see if we find out something that you don't already know so let's go ahead and read this article I think you should go go listen to majority of that that Joe Biden questioning I do think it's interesting I think it's interesting insight into why you know there are maybe why he was So far away from us for so long and also kind of the dissent structure and where his mental capacity is at right now and in kind of you know there was some interesting questions that were asked and he danced around virtually all of them without you know any day doesn't even Nestlé dancer on these things you just like kind of babbles because he forgot the question and then never actually answers it and then gets confused and then call some deals and it was basically the theme of what happened through this questioning but there there was one more portion of that that I thought maybe we could listen real quick there was a female reporter who it basically question him and in pride a little bit further because she was thought it was interesting how he said it's good to our our response is going to depend widely on what they do so let's see maybe what let's pull this question up here and then will go ahead and read that article on what is actually going on in Russia so here is this part and then maybe we'll talk a bit more about that and dive in the article sanction they I wanted to follow up briefly on a question asked by Bloomberg you said that Russia would be held accountable if it invades and it depends on what it does it's one thing if it's a minor incursion and we end up having to fight about what to do and what not to do are you saying that a minor incursion by Russia into Ukrainian territory would not lead to the sanctions that you have threatened writing effectively giving prudent permission to make a small incursion into the country question so to most important thing to do regulations coupons number two the ideas that we would do anything to split data which would be a profound impact on one of I think, in fact one subject we can would be a big mistake so the question is if it's a something significantly short of a significant invasion were not significant major military forces coming across for example okay it's one thing to determine that if they continue to to use cyber will we we can respond so well but outside they have FSP people is now writing down outlandish visa undermine solidarity in Ukraine about Russian trying to promote Russian interest but it's very important that we keep everyone in NATO that's what I'm spending a lot of time doing and there are different for differences NATO what countries are willing to do depending on what happens the degree to which I will be cleared the serious imposition of sanctions relative to dollar transactions the things are things that are going to have a negative impact on the United States as well as the negative impact in the economies of Europe as well a devastating impact on rush and so I got to make sure everybody's in the same page as immovable I think we will if there's something that is Werther's Russian forces crossing the border killing Ukrainian fighters etc. the that changes everything but it depends on what he does is take action when extent invariably get total unity rush on the new from quick went on Iran alright so as though he had a few things therewith always interesting to me and hit the heat did I'm proud of him Joe Biden if you're listening to this podcast and now the likelihood is probably very great that you are good job I'm am very impressed that you will start of a sentence and at one point you even came back to the original point of the question and and finish your thought there that was very impressive to me I applaud you and it's it's prayer is always a game raise like in the every time he starts a sentence as it can alike go off on this crazy tangent and then we do have no idea where he's going or how he got to this point and in the what question he's really thinks he's answering her mother is actually answer the question and I think I was probably the only time where he actually payments back and said you know it depends on what he dies them to what extent were to be able to have total unity within NATO and you know what response what I have so we actually did finish that when I'm very impressed Joe Mr. Pres. but so to me in on the next thing that he talks about there the first thing I should do with the way he open that is big when they say powerful the most powerful countries in the world cannot bluff so to me if you ever played poker maybe I'm wrong when it comes to international relations in war but usually it's the biggest countries who can bluff the most if you have all of the chips usually is much easier for you to block people out because you know how little chips they have right from Aveeno analogy standpoint right if you have all the chips and then you have more chips than anybody and there's two of you who have the chips right you know the and there's six people who don't have very many chips you can throw in three chips and affects everybody out you might have 30 of them write this now it is going to farm sorry that the basis is if you have all dam chips you get the bluff all you want right they did that you don't get the you know if you're not generally bluffing if you're very low on ships and I don't know if that run through with you I'm sorry but I did to me made sense the lease when I started that thought and Lisa came back around to it right but to me if I get you note what if you if you're the largest when can you bluff then in knowing and why does it have to be a bluff why do we have to be bluffing that if you go in the no obliterate a country that has very very little means to defend themselves without us supporting them and giving them weapons and troops in Indo black ops military to help them complete real missions and train them which is what will and that happening like always ends up happening when these things happen it it if you know if you can't bluff white what you have to bluff buys that a problem lies the problem if someone is going to invade another country and they shouldn't do that morally you know that maybe that gets into the multinational way that we dip our hands and all these you know wars so made may be we shouldn't be but but but again you know I I found that statement to be interesting you know we can't block for America America's been bluffing for a very long time and a lot of different situations this would be the first time so that was interesting and then the last thing that he said you know was kind of dance around the question eventually came to a point where you know maybe he realized what the actual question was so let's dive a little bit deeper into what is actually going on in Russia memo to read this article to you and then we'll talk about it so just a few minutes left here so steer it stay with me you're doing great I hope you learning something real quick we are just hitting our here you been listening to me for a while and in the you heard me the very beginning I asked you to subscribe and if you did I think you

the deep dive articles that were to be putting out every week now it is only for pates drivers so this article was one that I found I just typed into… Why is Russia invading Ukraine and in I thought it might be a good idea using specific subs that myself to find some in the panic creators who had an independent opinion that was maybe tied to a large media organization and see what they had to say about it so I typed in sub stack why is Russia invading Ukraine this is what comes up so is an article by Henry Bolton Henry Bolton according to his own self is the BRI T PAC chairman British pack German former national politician political leader Amber exit campaigner previous a British Army Capt. and some other things that he says about himself so this was written on January 18 yesterday at the height on Tuesday of the situation so to start off this article is named the likelihood is that Russia will invade Ukraine here's why and what the objectives are likely to be Russia has deployed an estimated 100,000 to 125,000 troops around 75% of Russia's total ground combat power to Ukraine's eastern border Pres. Putin has issued demands and threats to Ukraine and NATO has launched's waving cyber attacks against Ukraine and has increased the rhetoric aimed at his domestic audience all the signs are that the Kremlin is poised to strike but will day and if so at what and why in addition to the Black Sea deposits in the Caribbean waters Ukraine has massive gas reserves in the east of the country I know I said that what that east of the country in particular the huge use a method or pronounce it why use the IVS KE use the avast ski field with these deposits Ukraine holds 5,400,000,000,000 m³ of gas the third largest reserves in Europe when Russia occupied the Crimea in 2014 Ukraine lost in Russia gained the huge gas deposits under the Scythian section of the Black Sea shelf the Black Sea shelf deposits had been under exploration for several years and Ukraine finally awarded the licenses of for their expert exploration in August 2012 Ukraine did not possess the technology or expertise to exploit the deposit itself they are very deep into the contracts were inevitably going to go abroad given the very close association between the Ukrainian Pres. Victor Jan new show Vic and Pres. Putin the Kremlin expected the contracts will be issued to the Russian energy giant gas broom but the Kremlin should have foreseen a problem until the Russian occupation of Crimea in the down buzz in eastern Ukraine Ukraine imported almost all of its gas from Gasper gas from had in turn impose numerous price hikes in Ukraine Ukraine's gas distributor NAFTA gas has struggled to pay the bills but 2014 NAFTA gas owned gas from old gas from $4.5 billion in US currency because of the repeated price hikes and resulting tensions between gas perm and NAFTA gas Ukraine had been trying to establish order other non-Russian supplies return to Europe for them and when the contract licenses were issued for the expectation of Ukrainians gas they went not to gasp Rome and Russia but to the group that led by American Exxon Mobil but to a group led by American Exxon Mobil but in including Dutch British Royal Dutch Shell and Romanian OMD Pro pressroom working with Ukrainian state company natural I'm sorry for all the pronunciation that there was a lot of Ukrainian words and companies in the meantime as I say Ukraine was looking to diversify its gas supply here enters the Europe European Union and one of the causes of Russian anger towards the UV Europe at the time in 2013 import about 39% of its gas from Russia in 2019 it was 41% was going up the last seven years nine years and much of the gas to Ukraine wanted to import from the EU was in fact redirected Russian gas gastro contracts new energy importing companies forbade such redirection and resell it in 2006 the clauses were removed because they infringed are in article 81 of the European community treaty and restrictive business practices legally this meant that your company's had every right to reexport gas no matter where they got it from indeed the Ukraine that now imports most of its gas from Hungary and Poland but can anyone really see Pres. Putin accepting such things passively so it sounds like there's been this kind of gas for this like resource a mineral war you know it's interesting talking on the backs of the idea of Afghanistan being left for China with lithium deposits to B passes the bill back that a plan which is to give them the 6000 diagram per person and with millions and millions people buying electric cars that would mean when millions and billions and trillions of dollars to China from your tax dollars that we gave up Afghanistan for interesting but I digress as an aside as an aside I know how I feel about the skies writing as an aside maybe it's because he's from Britain you know the UK or something member is from where you from is the brick picture so whatever that culture shimmies British so maybe they say that Britain given the very close association let's see if we can find where we were at as an aside consider the Russian involvement in resisting the pro-EU made in protests and KE of 2013 the context of access Ukrainian gas access the Ukrainian gas fields is a large part of the reason that the Kremlin was and is still so sensitive our Ukraine closing up to the European Union so it sounds like I got mineral war between the Eno European Union Russia and you know even the United states being in on it with Exxon so wind when in 2014 Russia occupied commedia Ukraine lost the Black Sea hydrocarbon fields that some list of names there in a minute butcher in that were under the promising exploration and if we look at the fighting in the East the country thousand 14 you carry nearly lost the town of slope and ask him backed rebels the so-called republics so let's go on low before more here so says the let's look briefly at what happened if Russia had not occupy Korea let's move on don't care about that so I might rush initiate hostilities again Ukraine in fact hostilities between Ukraine and Russia backed rebels in the East have never quite ceased but if we assume based on the above that the crime was objective in 2014 and 15 was to secure Ukraine's gas deposits in the Black Sea and east of the country so as to extend the maintain economic and political leverage over EU economies and if we assume that those objectives were not fully reached pro-Russian rebels failed to retain their occupation and therefore control over the massive use it Visco Ashfield use zip sky gas-filled and then yes hostilities at some point are likely combat indications so what is pointing us to the fact that this could happen right why do people believe it is going to be up for sur

Welcome to a new Patreon Executive Producer MARK RICHARDS ELECTRIC CAR SALES PASS ‘TIPPING POINT' IN SWITZERLAND - The number of new electric cars sold in Switzerland continues to accelerate – even faster than predicted, according to the Touring Club Switzerland (TCS) car association. - For the September to November period, fully electric vehicles accounted for 18.3% of new registrations and plug-in vehicles (electric and plug-in hybrids) hit a record 28% - The TCS described the 18.3% threshold as a milestone. Electric vehicles had clearly gone beyond a “tipping point” and moved into the mainstream, it said. - In Switzerland incentives for plug-in vehicles are not coordinated and vary between cantons.

It's not certain which models would provide the option, but it's notable that some trim levels of the Ioniq 5 and other Hyundai cars include NFC for a (currently proprietary) digital key. - CarKey (and its Android equivalent) treats the phone more like a physical key. You just have to bring your phone or Apple Watch to the door handle to unlock it, and you can even place your phone in a given area to start the car. People with ultra-wideband iPhones (such as the iPhone 11 and newer) can even leave their phone in their pocket when opening and starting the vehicle.

The clips, spotted by Tesla North show the feature as being quite functional, including Apple Maps and Apple Music. - Gapinski instead bypasses Wi-Fi restrictions so that the Tesla's browser can connect to a secondary device. In turn, the browser displays what is shown on the host device as a live video feed. - Currently in its early stages, the developer says he plans to release it to the public "when it's polished." - the project actually relies on a Raspberry Pi running a custom build of Android. That build runs an interface that works with CarPlay, enabling Apple's UI to be usable from the larger screen.

This made it the best-selling EV in China ahead of the BYD Qin, which sold 187,227 units. - The MINI EV is priced from the equivalent of just over $4,000 USD in China, with each unit carrying a minuscule profit margin of $14 for SAIC-GM-Wuling.

The cars will be made by a unit of Dongfeng Motor Group Co - Although Japan isn't currently a huge market for electric vehicles — EV penetration runs at just 1% versus 30% in some cities in China — Chinese automakers sense an opportunity. - "If Japanese companies just stick to producing cars, foreign companies will come in,” said Hiroyasu Koma, CEO of folofly, the company working with SBS and Dongfeng Motor on the former's fleet-electrification strategy.
