But have you ever wondered to what extent the US is being co-opted, undermined, and compromised? How is TikTok being weaponized? How are elites like Hunter Biden, Jared Kushner, Ivanka Trump, and Neil Bush in bed with agents of the Chinese Communist Party (for the latter quite literally)? Why are the Chinese putting rovers on the dark side of the moon? What about the “Chinese spy balloon” that was shot down over the US last year? Is the Chinese military preparing for an all-out cyber war? And why is the CCP allowing an overtly anti-communist themed trilogy of books in that of The Three Body Problem (now a massive hit show on Netflix) to be widely distributed in their highly-censored country? Are these books acclimatizing the populace to alien life and/or is it soft recruitment for the Chinese Space Force? This is what my friend and UFO Whistleblower David Grusch speculates while claiming that China, the US, and Russia are all in a Cold War-style arms race for reverse engineering alien craft. If World War II was about who controls the skies, would World War III be about who controls outer space? To try and get the full picture, I sat down with these two experts: Michael Paul Pillsbury is a foreign policy strategist, author, and former public official in the United States. He is a senior fellow for China strategy at The Heritage Foundation and has been Director of the Center on Chinese Strategy at the Hudson Institute in Washington, D.C., since 2014. Josh Rogin is an American journalist currently serving as a foreign policy columnist for the Global Opinions section of The Washington Post and a political analyst for CNN. He is author of the book Chaos Under Heaven: Trump, Xi, and the Battle for the 21st Century. *** AMERICAN ALCHEMY is an original series hosted by Jesse Michels that explores the frontier of science and tech.
