    A dramatic rescue takes place as record flooding hits southern China. A whopping 98 rivers have swelled past their warning levels, and the water is still rising. Officials say the situation will soon get worse.

    Does the U.S. Defense Department know where its money has gone? A report is saying no and that the agency failed to keep adequate track of its funds going to Chinese research labs. Some of those labs are home to high-risk forms of virus research.

    Secretary of State Antony Blinken is doubling down on the China threat. He's calling out Beijing's biggest infrastructure outreach project: the Belt and Road Initiative.

    A Chinese rocket was mistakenly launched over the weekend—ending in a crash, plus an explosion that sparked a fire.

    A chartered plane is sending 116 Chinese nationals back to China, marking the first large-scale removal of its kind in five years.

    Beijing is demanding loyalty from Communist Party members living abroad, an order that could put them at odds with U.S. law.

    The National Desk Temu Lawsuit
    Tim Griffin Attorney General of Arkansas
    Jul 3, 2024

    After announcing he is suing Chinese e-commerce company Temu for violations of the Arkansas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (ADTPA) and the Arkansas Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA), Attorney General Tim Griffin issued the following statement:

    “Temu is not an online marketplace like Amazon or Walmart. It is a data-theft business that sells goods online as a means to an end. Today I have filed a first-of-its-kind state lawsuit against the parent companies of Temu—PDD Holdings Inc. and WhaleCo Inc.—for violating the ADTPA and PIPA. Though it is known as an e-commerce platform, Temu is functionally malware and spyware. It is purposefully designed to gain unrestricted access to a user’s phone operating system. It can override data privacy settings on users’ devices, and it monetizes this unauthorized collection of data.

    “While this is the first state lawsuit against Temu over its deceptive trade practices, it is not the first time Temu’s tactics have been called into question. Apple suspended Temu from its digital app store in 2023, prompting multiple investigations into the company’s dealings, including an ongoing investigation being conducted by the U.S. Congress.

    “Temu is led by a cadre of former Chinese Communist Party officials, which raises significant security risks to our country and our citizens. For my part, I will aggressively fight Temu’s efforts to profit at the expense of Arkansans’ privacy rights.”

    The lawsuit, filed in Cleburne County Circuit Court, seeks an order enjoining Temu’s deceptive trade practices and violations of users’ privacy, imposing civil penalties, and providing all other monetary and equitable relief to which the State is entitled.

    Over 1 Million Affected by Severe Flooding in China

    7/5/24

    Intense flooding batters southern China, forcing people to flee homes, crushing peoples’ livelihoods, and submerging farmlands. We spoke to locals about the situation.

    The European Union is imposing significant tariffs on electric vehicles coming from China—with the rule taking effect this Friday. Meanwhile, Beijing is formulating trade rules against some key European exports in retaliation. The two sides are expected to hold talks amid the trade war.

    Reports have emerged of Chinese authorities quietly shutting down some sellers of fentanyl precursors. Washington has been urging Beijing to do its part in curtailing the U.S. opioid epidemic.

    Some foreign companies are reportedly considering pulling Taiwanese staff out of China. This comes after Beijing threatened the death penalty for anyone supporting Taiwanese independence.

    How Bad Is China’s New Food Crisis?
    Crossroads with JOSHUA PHILIPP
    610K subscribers
    Premiered Jul 3, 2024

    The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has been enacting policies that seem to suggest that China is facing a food crisis. Problems around food supply have been brewing for years in China, with serious water pollution, natural disasters, and the dwindling amount of arable land. The CCP used to heavily rely on imports, but economic lockdowns and contentious global trade policies are making that more difficult. Now, the regime is enacting policies that have analysts wondering if the food problem is worse than it seems. We’ll discuss this issue in this episode of Crossroads.

    How the Chinese Communist Party Subverts Global Political Systems
    The Epoch Times
    Crossroads
    Jul-05-2024

    The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has large-scale programs for political warfare, and there are growing concerns that the CCP is trying to subvert the political systems of other countries by gaining influence over key figures. Recently, a string of incidents has raised concerns that the CCP is waging an aggressive operation to control foreign politics. We’ll discuss the recent warnings within the United States, and the global investigations now being launched against CCP subversion, in this episode of Crossroads.



    Why the CCP is Trying to Revive Marxism
    Crossroads with JOSHUA PHILIPP
    610K subscribers
    Premiered Jul 2, 2024

    There’s a new campaign taking place in China, where the CCP is trying to revive Marxism by merging it into Chinese culture. The campaign isn’t limited to just theory. It represents changes taking place throughout the country, from farms to the military, and from business to the CCP leadership. It appears that the CCP is planning to become more isolated from the world and, as new alliances are forming amid growing threats of war, the regime is trying to roll the country back to Maoist-era policies. We’ll discuss the changes currently taking place, and what they mean, on this episode of Crossroads.

    "It started Friday when China's central bank reported more than just new record low credit stats, the deterioration over the past few months has been astounding. That obviously spread to the Chinese economy which the government confirmed today with ugly data across-the-board, big miss in GDP and grim numbers on retail sales. Yet, everyone wants more "stimulus" that all this data proves didn't stimulate a thing. Something to keep in mind when thinking about upcoming Fed rate cuts."

    Clif High, 3 Gorges Dam prediction?
    Quote Posted by onawah (here)
    I have been keeping a close eye on China and posting regularly in the thread "Turmoil in China".
    The conditions for the people now under the CCP are similar to those in North Korea, protests are growing in number and vehemance and the CCP's days may be numbered.
    The 3GD is not only vulnerable to earthquakes but its construction, like so much of the infrastructure in China due to corruption in the CCP, was poorly done and it is already showing cracks and other problems that do not bode well.
    The devastation and chain reaction it's failure would cause downstream and to the whole country is inestimable.
    China is already in bad shape, and with typical bad timing, Xi Jinping is doing a lot of saber rattling now, including recalling retired military back into active service.
    If any one of the countries that the CCP has been threatening decided to forestall further threats, an attack on the 3G dam would be a huge game changer.
    The CCP's military is a bit of a paper tiger and the government is bankrupt, so Xi should have learned by now that it is unwise for people who live in glass houses to throw stones.
    "Saving face" seems to be very important in the CCP's mentality, even if that leads to bluffing and self-aggrandizement.
    Though no one is really fooled much by that anymore and the CCP's actions are by and large very transparent in nature.
    However, with the ongoing increase in natural catastrophes caused by weather, and with China's failing infrastructure and yet more heavy rain predicted, there may not even be a need for anyone to deliberately push China further into the largely CCP-created crisis that is already underway.
    Dependence on China for manufactured goods is already decreasing as major companies have been moving elsewhere at record pace, but if the dam fails there will be countless factories inundated, and that will mean major changes globally in importing and manufacturing.
    The impact on global finances in general will certainly be felt as well...

    I was thinking about this, too. Many aspects of the attempted Trump assassination fits the language but it's not necessarily global. And the timing is a bit off.

    clif mentioned a lot of that language coming out of China.
    Currently, China's Three Gorges Dam is facing it's flood season. And the pressure on the dam is building. A break or collapse in that dam would be devastating to the people living in it's wake, but there would be far more ramifications in it's aftermath that would have a cascading global affect.

    31 rivers exceed warning levels as China enters key flood season

    Quote The ministry and China Meteorological Administration jointly issued a red alert, the highest level, for mountain floods on Sunday evening, warning of a high probability for mountain floods in the cities of Bazhong and Guangyuan in Sichuan between Sunday evening and Monday evening.

    This isn't 3 Gorges Dam, it's another. I don't know where it sits in China's river/dams system?

    Thank you, it’s really very interesting, because I have several VR sessions that talk to me about disaster with water and what I took for a tsunami could well concern a massive flooding.

    I have the image of something giving way, involving a break in the soil or the earth’s crust, a collapse, perhaps an earthquake that then induces a large movement of water. I clearly have words like "crack", "a huge pressure that pushes upwards" "a fault that widens"...
    There was a strident sound that was also swelling, and I’m not sure if a tsunami makes this kind of noise, it may be more like strong water under pressure and metal structures that give way...
    Another session, involves "a cliff that falls", "heavy rain"" damage", "army sent as reinforcement", "economic disaster for the region", "many things that fall, trees and poles"... I just checked, it turns out that the province of the 3 gorges, Hubei, is a seismic zone, not necessarily the most violent of China, but it has experienced 14 earthquakes since 2019 up to 4.9 of magnitude.

    If ever an earthquake were to occur, with the already enormous pressure on the structures of the dams, well, it would perhaps be the perfect cocktail for a large-scale disaster... This would immediately create panic on the Asian stock exchanges. It is an important economic zone for agriculture, energy, metallurgy etc.

    Remote viewing is always very frustrating because you can have very specific points that appear and other information completely out of the game. And I don’t have the training or the precision of FFG even if I had very honorable results in the past on certain targets...

    So to watch closely...

    3 reasons why the Chinese worry about the Three Gorges Dam collapse

    (At 27 minutes into the video the explanation is given for the main reason there is so much flooding in China, and it's not what you might think.
    In fact it's unimaginable unless you already know a lot about how the CCP operates.
    The reason is that many dams have been built (by the CCP) not for water conservation, but for commercial purposes such as to produce hydroelectric power, or fisheries, or scenic tourist spots.
    Those who reap those profits, rather than discharging the waters during the dry season to prevent drought conditions on farmlands, etc., withhold it because that is the chief way they can line their pockets.
    They are so uncaring about what happens to the land and the people that, once the rainy season starts, that is when they suddenly release the dammed up waters, causing terrible flooding downsream.
    ...Often without any warning and at night, releasing such huge volumes of water that flooding is unavoidable. )

    1. What will happen if the Three Gorges Dam collapses?
    2. China is having one of the worst flooding years
    3. 3 reasons that may cause the Three-Gorges Dam collapse
    4. Why flooding is so bad in China?
    5. Why flooding is also political
