American Thought Leaders Description:

[RUSH TRANSCRIPT BELOW] In this episode, we sit down with Gordon Chang, author of the new book, “Plan Red: China’s Project to Destroy America,” to understand the Chinese regime’s strategy to destabilize America, from fentanyl warfare to election disinformation to suspicious activity at the border.

“We’re seeing a change in composition of Chinese migrants. So if we go back two or three years ago, it’s basically family groups. Now you’re seeing packs of single males, groups of five to 15, military-age, traveling without family members, some of them pretending not to speak English. And as Chairman [Mark] Green noted, U.S. Border Patrol knows some of them have links to the Chinese military,” Mr. Chang says.

We also discuss China’s growing nuclear arsenal, tensions in the South China Sea, and where things may be headed.

“We have these extremely belligerent, provocative acts, some of which constitute acts of war against the Philippines. … We see this right now at Sabina Shoal. Last month, it was Second Thomas Shoal. Before that, it was Whitsun Reef. But all of these areas are very close to the main islands of the Philippines and very far from China. They are within the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.”

America has a mutual defense treaty with the Philippines and has issued multiple warnings—with little effect.

“We see momentum toward war, and we Americans have got to ask ourselves, what is going to stop this momentum to war?” Chang says.
