Today's guest is investigative journalist and #1 New York Times bestselling author Peter Schweizer.

Join Jack and Peter as they trace Peter’s path into journalism and writing and discuss his dedication to exposing government corruption. The conversation dives deep into the dangers posed by complex motivations within the government. Jack and Peter emphasize the failure to recognize Chinese philosophy and strategy, highlighting the urgency of understanding that we are already at war.

The discussion sheds light on the distinction between the Chinese Communist Party and the Chinese people, noting that the latter are the greatest victims of the CCP. Peter elaborates on the decades-long drug war, from the Opium Wars to the heroin epidemic during the Vietnam War, culminating in the Fentanyl crisis today.

They explore the social division caused by civilian-focused psyops in a strategy designed to destabilize the United States by invoking deep emotions and guiding public values and perspectives. The episode reveals how just 1% of the population is enough to create a significant impact, touching on the secret cognitive warfare waged through platforms like TikTok and the social engineering witnessed during the pandemic.

Peter is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Blood Money: Why the Powerful Turn a Blind Eye While China Kills Americans, Red-Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win, Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America's Progressive Elite, Secret Empires: How the American Political Class Hides Corruption and Enriches Family and Friends, and Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich.
