Podcasts about Xi Jinping

This week, Scott sat down with co-hosts emeritus Benjamin Wittes and Alan Rozenshtein, and Senior Editor Kate Klonick, to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“Cracks in the Foundation.” The conservative Heritage Foundation—and the broader conservative movement it plays a central role in—has been going through a very public crisis over the past week after its president, Kevin Roberts, came to the defense of right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson after Carlson chose to host white nationalist Nick Fuentes on his podcast. This has led to resignations at the Heritage Foundation, condemnation by certain figures on the right, and a pseudo apology by Roberts. It has also led to a little bit of a reckoning over how some on the right, and to some extent Americans more broadly, have dealt with accusations of anti-Semitism, its relationship to various policy questions, as well as hate speech and other political perspectives. What should we be making of this crisis and what does it tell us about the different policy aspects that intersect with this question of anti-Semitism?“Turning Back the Clock.” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent promised that President Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping would “consummate” a TikTok deal at their face-to-face last week. But no details have emerged to date. What should we make of this apparent hold-up—and of the TikTok saga altogether? “A Foe By Any Other Name.” As the Trump administration has continued its military campaign against narcotics traffickers in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific, U.S. officials have continued to draw parallels between current policies and the Global War on Terrorism, calling detainees “unlawful enemy combatants” and the groups being targeted “designated terrorist organizations.” “If you are a narco-terrorist…,” Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth recently tweeted in relation to one of the strikes, “we will treat you like we treat Al-Qaeda.” But how accurate are these parallels, and why is the Trump administration deploying them in this way?In object lessons, Ben brings you a little announcement that is shorter than this sentence—you're just going to have to listen to find out. Alan, hungry for more genre fiction, is diving into The Divine Cities trilogy, starting with “City of Stairs,” by Robert Jackson Bennett. Scott is going out of this world with what he calls “the nerdiest object lesson” he's ever brought to RatSec: Pioneer, a tabletop role-playing game that has “launched” on Kickstarter. And Kate, not to be outdone in nerdom, displays maybe the mathiest vegetable: the beautiful romanesco.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

PREVIEW. Return to Escalation: Monitoring China's Promise to Purchase American Soybeans. Jack Burnham discusses the muted respect/ceasefire between President Trump and General Secretary Xi Jinping following their meeting in Seoul. Burnham suggests a return to escalation is likely, similar to past talks, if either side perceives a competitive step. A critical trigger point to monitor is China's fulfillment of promises to purchase American agricultural commodities, such as soybeans. 1908 HANKOU

Nigeria, Venezuela Intervention, and China Power Struggles. Gregory Copley discusses Trump's order for military action in Nigeria, noting the violence is complex and not strictly genocide against Christians, contrasting it with US refusal to provide past aid. Discussion shifts to the overwhelming US military buildup near Venezuela, which might force Maduro's departure by damaging his credibility, possibly via anti-narcotics action. The interview concludes by analyzing the anticlimactic Trump-Xi meeting, attributing the lack of confrontation to Xi Jinping's significantly weakened position due to China's shattered economy and internal power struggles. 1911 NIGERIA

This week on Conflicted, Thomas Small is joined by Patrick McGee, technology reporter and author of the phenomenal new book, Apple in China. Patrick provides an exclusive look at how Apple, in its relentless pursuit of operational excellence, drove a unique form of globalization that profoundly reshaped the economic and geopolitical world. Thomas and Patrick dissect the story of Apple's pivot from near-bankruptcy to becoming a global superpower, focusing on the often-overlooked genius of CEO Tim Cook - the operations mastermind who built a manufacturing model that, while pioneering, effectively hollowed out US industrial capacity. They explore the critical role of Taiwan's Foxconn and its founder, Terry Gou, who understood that Apple's demanding processes were not exploitation, but a unique, fast-track training program that turned China into an advanced manufacturing powerhouse. The conversation follows the narrative from production to consumption, revealing the chaos and extraordinary demand of the Chinese retail market, the political awakening of the company under Xi Jinping's rising power, and the ultimate irony: Apple, the champion of individual liberty, forging a $275 billion partnership with America's foremost geopolitical rival. The episode is a must-listen for understanding the true forces that built the 21st-century global economy.

The United States is moving toward a larger break from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). This emerging reality came to the forefront during a key meeting between President Donald Trump and CCP leader Xi Jinping. While they were able to make a deal, the broader picture suggests the countries will move further apart.We'll discuss this topic, and others, in this episode of Crossroads.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Donald Trump y Xi Jinping se reunieron el pasado jueves en Busan, Corea del Sur, durante la cumbre de APEC tras seis años y cuatro meses sin verse. Aprovecharon el encuentro para acordar una tregua temporal de un año en su guerra comercial, sin alcanzar un acuerdo formal, pero reduciendo algunas contramedidas mutuas. Esto deja la relación comercial entre EEUU y China ligeramente peor que hace un año, aunque más tensa de lo que sería deseable. La mayoría de los detalles provienen de Trump, que habló con periodistas en el Air Force One de regreso a Washington y publicó un extenso post en su red social. El comunicado chino fue más breve, pero confirmó algunos puntos mencionados por Trump. Ambas partes pactaron pausar nuevas hostilidades comerciales durante un año dejando abierta la renegociación de aranceles. Estados Unidos reducirá en 10 puntos porcentuales sus aranceles a China —a cambio de la promesa de Xi de perseguir la producción de precursores de fentanilo—, quedando el arancel efectivo promedio en el 47 % para la mayoría de productos chinos. Es alto, superior a los de otros socios comerciales de EEUU, pero inferior a los aranceles punitivos de hace unos meses. China reanudará las compras de soja estadounidense, un alivio sin duda para el sector agrícola que había perdido a uno de sus mejores clientes. El secretario del Tesoro, Scott Bessent, anunció que China adquirirá 12 millones de toneladas métricas este año y un mínimo de 25 millones anuales durante los próximos tres. Aunque trae cierto respiro, los volúmenes están por debajo de ventas pasadas y no representan un retorno a la normalidad. En energía Trump aseguró que China comprará petróleo y gas provenientes de Alaska, donde hay un proyecto en desarrollo aún no construido. El comunicado chino solo menciona cooperación en energía sin detalles específicos. Los analistas lo ven como un gesto político, similar a otros compromisos obtenidos mediante amenazas comerciales a la UE y Corea del Sur. Sobre el tema de las tierras raras, es sabido que China emplea su dominio como arma desde hace tiempo. Se han comprometido a suspender durante un año los controles de exportación anunciados el pasado de 9 de octubre, pero no a las restricciones previas ni se eliminan las licencias de exportación. China, en definitiva, mantiene esta palanca estratégica. Ambas partes suspenderán las tasas portuarias impuestas recientemente, pero eso es más una concesión estadounidense, ya que sus buques apenas operan en puertos chinos. No se discutió nada relativo a los chips de Nvidia. EEUU mantiene los controles de exportación por motivos de seguridad nacional. Tampoco se mencionó el asunto de Taiwán, pero si hablaron de Ucrania. Trump cree que China, principal apoyo de Rusia, puede ayudar a traer la paz. En esencia es un apretón de manos, no un acuerdo definitivo. Los detalles son vagos y reversibles. La vaguedad implica fragilidad. Hoy por hoy EEUU depende más de China, especialmente con las tierras raras. Los aranceles son la principal herramienta de Trump, pero ya no es tan efectiva como antes. Si Trump ha accedido a relajar las tensiones comerciales se debe sin duda a que quiere evitar problemas económicos en pleno año electoral;. La asimetría es clara: Xi Jinping no tiene que rendir cuentas, Trump si. Las guerras comerciales son una mala idea contra un adversario poderoso. China decidió contraatacar y Trump subestimó su capacidad de respuesta. Librarlas sin aliados es un error. Sin ellos y sin una estrategia diferente este armisticio durará poco.

It's Halloween weekend, and nothing is scarier than the possibility of a socialist gaining power over America's biggest city.   On Tuesday, millions of New Yorkers will have the opportunity to choose the future they want for the Big Apple. Democrat Socialist Zohran Mamdani, Republican Curtis Sliwa, and Independent Andrew Cuomo are all running to be New York's next mayor. If the polls are even close to accurate, Mamdani, a candidate who has made promises to freeze rent and introduce government-run grocery stores, will be the next mayor of New York City.   In addition to the Big Apple, voters in Virginia and New Jersey are choosing their next governors on Tuesday. Jessica Furst Johnson, a partner and co-chair of the political law practice at Lex Politica, joins “Problematic Women” this week to break down each election and assess who ran the best campaign.   Also on today's show, President Donald Trump has just returned from Asia, where he met with Chinese President Xi Jinping. We explain the big takeaways from the trip and what the future could hold for U.S.-China relations. Plus, Americans have just celebrated Halloween. But is it “OK” to celebrate the holiday as a Christian? All the “Problematic Women” weigh in.

Cutting Off the CCP: Deterrence Through Nuclear Proliferation and Total Economic Isolation. Jim Fanell and Brad Thayer discuss critical, urgent actions required to counter the PRC's strategic forces threat. Given the severe strategic mismatch, Fanell argues that warfighting proliferation must be considered, suggesting nuclear capabilities and proliferation in Seoul, Tokyo, and even Taiwan to change the calculus in Beijing and Washington. Thayer emphasizes that the current downturn in the PRC's economy presents an opportunity to accelerate Xi Jinping's fall, recommending a political warfare strategy focused on evicting Xi Jinping and the CCP from power. Fanell clarifies they are not recommending armed conflict, but rather a strategy of power politics and isolating the PRC, treating the CCP as an evil, pariah regime by denying them access to US money, stripping them of Most Favored Nation status, and removing them from the World Trade Organization. The most important recommendation is the necessity for US leadership to admit failure as the critical first step to repairing damage to US authority and its allies.

Kate Adie introduces stories from Argentina, South Korea, Japan, Ireland and the Occupied West Bank.For decades, Argentina's cycle of boom and bust seemed endless, but two years ago, a chainsaw-wielding, self-styled 'anarcho capitalist' called Javier Milei promised a way out of all that. Since elected as president he's shown some signs of being able to shrink the state – but are voters happy? Ione Wells watched on at the recent mid-term elections.The meeting between China's President, Xi Jinping and US President, Donald Trump this week in South Korea was analysed intently for any signs of a breakthrough on the two countries trade stand-off.

Former Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul joins Margaret Hoover to discuss President Trump's trip to Asia, the state of the war in Ukraine, and the new era of great power competition with Russia and China.McFaul, author of the new book “Autocrats vs. Democrats,” assesses Trump's handling of foreign policy so far in his second term, acknowledging the president has not been the isolationist many expected but also criticizing him for abandoning America's soft power institutions.McFaul, who first met Vladimir Putin in the 1990s, explains how Putin's worldview differs from Xi Jinping and why he believes that makes Putin a more aggressive threat to democracy. He also lays out what he thinks it will take to bring Putin to the negotiating table to end the war in Ukraine.And McFaul reflects on the 2024 death of his friend, Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny, and what it means for Russia's post-Putin future.Support for Firing Line with Margaret Hoover is provided by Robert Granieri, The Tepper Foundation, Vanessa and Henry Cornell, The Fairweather Foundation, and Pritzker Military Foundation.

President Donald Trump announced a trade truce with Chinese President Xi Jinping after a 90-minute meeting in Busan, South Korea, on Thursday. But what actually came out of the truce seems… less than meets the eye. According to Axios, Trump reduced tariffs against China in exchange for promises from the Chinese president to buy American soybeans and oil. However, the deal appears to be largely temporary, with few actual binding details that would make it any different from those made during Trump's first term in office or even earlier this year. So for more details on the trade truce and Trump's Asia trip, I spoke to Evan Madeiros. He's the Penner Family Chair in Asia studies at Georgetown University with a focus on East Asia and US-China relations.And in headlines, Immigration and Customs Enforcement refuses to cease operations during Halloween festivities in Chicago, the Trump administration restricts the amount of refugees it will allow into the US every year, and Trump administration officials held a classified briefing on the president's escalating boat-strike campaign – but only invited Republicans.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (10/30/2025): 3:05pm- According to a report from New York Post correspondent Lydia Moynihan, prediction markets—like PolyMarket and Kalashi—are routinely flooded with “dark money” which may be manipulating public perception of prominent political races, specifically the NYC mayoral race between Zohran Mamdani and Andrew Cuomo. Could the race be a lot closer than we are expecting? 3:20pm- According to a new poll from Quantus Insights, 53% of New Jersey voters believe their friends, co-workers, and neighbors will be voting for Republican Jack Ciattarelli—compared with just 47% for Democrat Mikie Sherrill. Is this a sign that Ciattarelli has momentum less than a week before Election Day? 3:30pm- Congressman Scott Perry—U.S. Representative for Pennsylvania's 10th Congressional District—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss the ongoing government shutdown, the House Oversight Committee's investigation into former President Joe Biden's use of the autopen, and he even references the film Tombstone! 3:50pm- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump met with Chinese President Xi Jinping—agreeing to reduce tariffs in exchange for easing restrictions on the trade of rare earth minerals. 4:05pm- According to a report from New York Post correspondent Lydia Moynihan, prediction markets—like PolyMarket and Kalashi—are routinely flooded with “dark money” which may be manipulating public perception of prominent political races, specifically the NYC mayoral race between Zohran Mamdani and Andrew Cuomo. Could the race be a lot closer than we are expecting? 4:30pm- Remember when President Donald Trump called into the show on election night and joked that he hoped Rich's ratings went to zero because he wants the whole audience in line voting? Matt hasn't forgotten and he loves to play the clip out of context. PLUS, Rich commits a major bathroom blunder! 5:00pm- The House Oversight Committee has released a video featuring testimony from several Biden administration officials—including Ron Klain, Ian Sams, and Karine Jean Pierre. 5:15pm- House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comey is demanding the Department of Justice investigate former President Joe Biden's use of the autopen—suggesting the administration covered up Biden's cognitive decline and, consequently, his autopen actions should be “void.” 5:20pm- According to a new poll from Quantus Insights, 53% of New Jersey voters believe their friends, co-workers, and neighbors will be voting for Republican Jack Ciattarelli—compared with just 47% for Democrat Mikie Sherrill. Is this a sign that Ciattarelli has momentum less than a week before Election Day? 5:45pm- Rich and producer Sean have a conversation about the predations of big government, the “District Clause” in Article I of the U.S. Constitution, and taxation without representation. 6:00pm- Early voting in New Jersey began on Saturday, October 25th. According to reports, “unaffiliated” voter turnout is already up—and most polling seems to indicate those voters will prefer Jack Ciattarelli over Mikie Sherrill. 6:20pm- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. would begin testing nuclear weapons—though, he didn't specify whether the tests will be of nuclear warheads or the missile/delivery systems that carry them. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladmir Putin has announced a new underwater nuclear-capable missile known as Poseidon—which can supposedly generate a tsunami powerful enough to destroy a coastal city. 6:40pm- In the final years of the Biden administration, White House Spokesperson Ian Sams claimed to meet with the President Joe Biden “every single day”—appearing on television regularly to vouch for Biden's cognitive abilities. However, in recent testimony provided to the House Oversight Committee, Sams revealed he only met with Biden “three or four times” in the two years he served in the administration!

Patrick Bet-David sits down with Tom Ellsworth, Vincent Oshana, and Adam Sosnick to cover Trump's breakthrough meeting with Xi Jinping, Vladimir Putin's new nuclear-powered missile warning, and Kash Patel allegedly shutting down the investigation into Charlie Kirk's assassination.------

Today's Headlines: Trump's Asia trip is somehow still going, with his latest stop in Beijing producing no trade deal — but plenty of showmanship. After what he called an “amazing” meeting with Xi Jinping, Trump said China will resume buying U.S. soybeans and pause export limits on rare earth minerals, while the U.S. cuts fentanyl tariffs from 20% to 10%. Missing from the talks: Taiwan, Russian oil, or China's access to Nvidia's AI chips. Also not discussed (but probably should've been): Trump's pre-meeting Truth Social post saying he's ordering the military to restart nuclear weapons testing — something no U.S. president has done since 1992. The Kremlin warned that if Washington breaks the moratorium, Moscow “will act accordingly.” Back in the US, SNAP and WIC benefits for over 40 million Americans are set to expire tomorrow as Senate Republicans blocked emergency funding, while also refusing to let Democrats use USDA contingency funds to keep the programs alive. Meanwhile, coffee might finally get cheaper — Senators Catherine Cortez Masto and Rand Paul introduced a bipartisan bill to repeal Trump's coffee tariffs. Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker asked ICE to pause raids in Chicago over Halloween weekend after agents fired tear gas near a kids' parade. The administration also announced it'll cap refugee admissions at 7,500 next year — down from 125,000 — prioritizing white South Africans. The DOJ has reopened an investigation into Black Lives Matter leaders over alleged donor fraud from 2020, despite a prior review finding no wrongdoing. In corporate circus news, OpenAI is reportedly preparing to go public at a trillion-dollar valuation (sure, why not), five more suspects were arrested in the $100 million Louvre jewel heist, and King Charles has officially stripped Prince Andrew of his royal title and booted him from royal property — so long, “Prince” Andrew.

President Trump meets with Xi Jinping and agrees to an embarrassingly one-sided trade deal, as the “China Hawks” in the administration cower. Meantime, the government shutdown moves to a more painful phase, with funding for SNAP expiring on Nov. 1. Former Sen. Heidi Heitkamp joins Tim to discuss how the chaos from Trump's trade wars has already hurt farmers, how Democrats should play their next moves on the shutdown, and her surprising support for Mamdani/Platner style candidates. show notes: The One Country Project's Hot Dish Podcast

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Public Service Fellow Ari Tabatabai and Managing Editor Tyler McBrien to talk through the week's big news in national security, including:“Great APEC-tations.” President Trump is headed to Asia this week, both for a meeting of the regional Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) organization and a one-on-one sit down with Chinese president Xi Jinping. It's a moment destined to spotlight one of the more quixotic areas of the second Trump administration's foreign policy, only complicated further by his (and China's) increasingly aggressive trade maneuvers, particularly around rare earth minerals. What should we expect this week? And what does it tell us about the Trump administration's Asia policy?“Pirates of the Caribbean.” The U.S. military build-up in the Caribbean has continued apace, even as the Trump administration has expanded its controversial military campaign against narcotics traffickers into the eastern Pacific. Even as both sets of actions have put pressure on the Maduro regime, they've also created rifts within Trump's coalition—where a few legislators have begun to join Democrats in demanding more answers from the Trump administration—and the executive branch, where tensions appear to have contributed to the early retirement of the military commander in charge of the operation. What constraints are there on how far the president can go in this space? And how far will he push them?“Too Calm After the Storm.” Hurricane Melissa, one of the strongest on record, made landfall in Jamaica yesterday, and is now hovering over Cuba (in weakened form) on its way to the Bahamas. The devastation it is expected to have left in its wake would in the past have been the subject of an almost immediate U.S. assistance response—but it's not clear what will be forthcoming today or how effective it will be given the dismantling of U.S. foreign assistance agencies. How should we expect the Trump administration to respond? And what could the long term consequences be?In object lessons, Tyler is sampling Baauer's Sample Breakdowns on Instagram for the muses behind the music. Scott is musing about the various uses of his vacuum sealer, particularly for his garden bounty. And Ari is singing the praises of the versatility of black sesame.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Donald Trump and Xi Jinping have met for the first time since 2019 to discuss a possible truce in the US-China trade war. The leaders of the world's two biggest economies shook hands and spoke of friendship ahead of the "amazing" meeting in South Korea. President Trump said they agreed a cut in tariffs and a rare earth minerals deal. Also: the US says it will begin testing its nuclear weapons to keep up with Russia and China; Hurricane Melissa moves towards the Bahamas and Cuba after causing unprecedented devastation in Jamaica; Brazil's president condemns the police raid that killed more than 130 people in Rio de Janeiro; the long lost wolf spider is re-discovered in the UK; what drives those who want to live forever; and the art of presidential gift giving.

President Trump's trade war against China has so far proved harder to win than his administration ever let on. And it reached new levels of tension this month when China said it would further restrict exports of rare-earth minerals to the United States and Europe.Keith Bradsher, the Beijing bureau chief for The New York Times, discusses a potential turning point in the standoff as Mr. Trump meets this week with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, in what will be their first talks since the trade war began.Guest: Keith Bradsher, the Beijing bureau chief for The New York Times.Background reading: Chinese and U.S. officials reached a framework of a trade deal on Sunday.Trump's deal with China may avert a crisis of his own making.Photo: The New York TimesFor more information on today's episode, visit nytimes.com/thedaily.
