Chinese criminal organizations, with tacit approval of the Chinese Communist Party, are flooding American communities with deadly fentanyl. As Peter explains, "This is not your typical drug abuse problem... Most people dying of fentanyl overdoses aren't even aware they're taking fentanyl. This is actually a poisoning rather than a drug overdose." We also unpack how China has infiltrated US political systems through "elite capture" - effectively buying off political leaders by giving business deals to their family members. Here’s Peter again: "Every single step in the equation, every single link in the chain from the precursors produced in China to the actual laundering of drug money profits involves China at its core." We also cover China’s role in the illegal gun trade, complicit multinational corporations, and how this all connects to President Trump’s tariffs and objectives for the Panama Canal.
