Deputy National Security Advisor Matthew Pottinger, who is arguably the U.S. government’s most knowledgeable expert on the Chinese Communist Party, recently spoke in Mandarin to the people of China and others threatened by what he calls the technologically-enhanced totalitarianism of Xi Jinping’s regime.

As it happens, thanks to the CCP’s collusion with “Beijing’s Bankers” on Wall Street, American investors are poised to pour tens of billions of dollars into Ant Technology Group, a Chinese conglomerate that enables Xi’s ambitions.
