This episode mainly discusses the situation on the Russia-Ukraine battlefield, developments in the Middle East, and the upcoming Trump-Xi meeting. The program points out that U.S. Treasury Secretary Bessent announced that he would cut off Iran's aviation industry and impose severe sanctions, such as SWIFT expulsion, on involved entities and financial institutions, directly targeting the support behind the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). At the same time, the White House announced Xi Jinping's itinerary for his visit to the U.S., which includes a tour of the U.S. National Archives. The program believes this move carries profound political metaphors and historical lessons.

Hello friends, welcome to today's Lude Media Dr. Yan's show on September 21, 2026. Let's look at a lot of interesting things today. When Monday comes, well, there are just so many things, right? He is about to arrive in the U.S., and the itinerary was even announced today; the White House announced it, it's so interesting. I'll explain it to you all in a moment. You see, we've already written it in the title, right? Xi, oh my, he absolutely thinks that the U.S. wants to show him the friendship between China and the U.S., the exchanges between the two countries, the future, and still showcase a beautiful tomorrow, right? So he thinks it's not bad that Trump arranged for him to visit the U.S. National Archives, right? Hey, I'll tell you about it in a moment. When I saw this itinerary, I laughed my head off. It's that saying: I knew you were uncultured, but I didn't know you were this uncultured. Come on, Trump is personally giving you a lesson, letting you know what national diplomacy is, what geopolitics is, and what the U.S. national strategy is. Hey, what is the true future of your CCP-ruled China? It's so interesting! I'd say Xi is probably, I guess the head of his dog-headed advisors heard our show, and even if they wanted to change Xi's itinerary now, they couldn't. So we'll just wait and see the joke when the time comes! Let's start with the Russia-Ukraine situation today. First, let's greet the audience, greet Shang'er, right? A long-time viewer. Hello to the brave and beautiful Dr. Yan, and thank you to all the students who liked and supported Lude and Yan.

Come, let's take a look first. There is a very interesting video here. Yesterday, it was said that the large oil refinery about 15 kilometers near the Moscow Kremlin was hit by over a thousand drones from Ukraine, right? Today, oh my, someone directly uploaded this video. You see, the person filming said it's unbelievable, because this is a Russian Pantsir air defense system, that behemoth on top, and it is now deployed directly above the busiest highway in Moscow. Look, it's directly on that highway, this should be on a bridge, right? It's just crouching there on the highway bridge! Everyone can imagine, what is it equivalent to? For example, if this kind of radar was standing on the big overpass on Beijing's Second Ring Road, right? They say it was placed here because it's right next to an oil refinery. It shows how scared Russia is after being bombed yesterday, right? The radar was even transported directly to the road to protect their oil refinery. Hey, this is really too interesting, right? Ukraine and the U.S.—although the U.S. said, "Hey, I didn't tell him to hit it, I told you not to hit it, go hit something else."

But don't you think that sounds even more terrifying? Ah, don't hit the diesel plants, what are you hitting? Hey, if you target the hideouts and meeting places of those Moscow intelligence officers, those ambitious guys in the military, the big shots, wouldn't that be even more terrifying? So you see, this hand of cards played by the U.S.—containing Russia while simultaneously engaging with it—is played so well! Ah, this time it's said to be relying on some other oil refinery, but in reality, it must also be relying on other important Russian, right? Official institutions, protecting these big shots. Hey, it's so interesting. Then Zelensky posted another tweet, saying that the war Russia launched against Ukraine, which goes against common sense, must end. Look, this sentence alone makes Xi feel terrified. Why must it end? If it ends, doesn't that mean everyone will turn around to fight the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)? Isn't that right? Then Zelensky said, from the first year of the full-scale invasion, the consequences of this war have already been far-reaching: a massive loss of life, cities and villages destroyed, food security and energy facing challenges, and the speed of technological development being astonishingly fast, including rapid progress in autonomous drones and unprecedented strike capabilities. Every week this war continues, not to mention every new year, brings more and more problems. From the very first minute of the war, Ukraine has been seeking peace. We have proposed dozens of diplomatic suggestions on how to end this war with dignity, ensure security, and prevent Russia from invading again. He said that currently, we are in dialogue with President Trump and the U.S. Ah, haven't people like Rubio already gone to New York these past few days? President Trump has also arrived in New York, because the UN General Assembly is about to meet, and people like Zelensky will all be going to the U.S., right? It's said that President Trump will also meet with Iranian President Pezeshkian, uh, as well as Venezuela's Rodriguez. Hey, it's all very interesting, right? In short, it's the CCP. You say Xi, you were asked to go, but you didn't go, right? If you had gone, you could have personally sat in command, and seen these countries you previously thought were good friends—oh, if they wanted to change sides and collude with the U.S. at the UN General Assembly, you, Xi, could have personally directed, blocked, and sowed discord, right? Hey, and you didn't go? You say you have to wait until Trump finishes his meetings? These past few days, the important core officials of Trump in the U.S. are basically all staying in New York, right? And you didn't go? Hey, you have to drag it out until the 23rd to come over? Oh well, it's fine, once you come over then, right? The U.S. will have arranged other things for you anyway. Thank you Wangwang for catching the live stream, Dr. Yan has worked hard. Are the pigs going to be taken to learn the spirit of independence? Yes, the spirit of independence is definitely one of them. We often talk about the U.S., right? The Declaration of Independence, hey, we started talking about this in 2021 and 2022, the Lude Media talked about it, right? And that Yaya, at the time, as well as many other viewers of ours who signed their own declarations of independence—what, the CCP is frantically cracking down and retaliating, thinking that this can suppress the spark of us truly achieving independence? How could that be possible? Look, the CCP has been suppressing it for these few years, not only can't they suppress it, but they even have to be personally dragged over to the archives to study those things. Besides this, there are other things to learn, right? There are many things in the National Archives, you guys go take a look. What is being exhibited online now is mainly the U.S., since it's the 250th anniversary of freedom, right? Independence, these, hey, the spirit of freedom, democracy, rule of law, etc. But do they have anything else? We will talk more about this for everyone in a moment. Let's finish talking about the previous parts first. Look, Zelensky continues.

He says there are still some ideas on the negotiating table that could move peace further. First is to take strong de-escalation measures. Ukraine's energy sector, critical infrastructure, and our food exports must no longer be targets of Russian attacks, and this will also prompt us to take corresponding de-escalation measures. Solutions are possible. We are ready to work for this and will discuss this issue with our partners during the UN General Assembly in New York. Thanks to everyone who provided help. It cannot be the case anymore that only the country under attack suffers. Today, the nature of war has changed, and the aggressor will also suffer. Technology will make all this possible. The strength of national leadership can and must bring about de-escalation, security, and peace. Thank you. At the same time, he also forwarded a new initial social post from President Trump. Hey, this was also posted by the White House. Trump's post says that Russia, because of its war with Ukraine, has unfortunately lost control of its own diesel industry. This ridiculous and endless Russia-Ukraine war must end! A large number of Russia's diesel and oil plants have been destroyed and have temporarily ceased operations. The whole world is suffering because 25,000 people are killed every month, most of whom are soldiers; it is truly shameful.

Look, after President Trump and Zelenskyy spoke following the strike on that Moscow refinery, right? They had another phone call, and it was all very cheerful. Then, according to what we discussed yesterday—the so-called leaks from sources—Trump is supposedly very concerned about diesel, right? So, outsiders inferred that Trump must be unhappy because it affects diesel prices and inflation. Actually, as I said, that’s just a smokescreen, right? Look at the statements from both Trump and Zelenskyy today; I didn't see anything of the sort. Because after Russia's diesel and oil products were hit, there were concerns that it might drive up the prices in the diesel supply chain, and so on. On the contrary, I think Trump is quite happy. Oh, diesel supply is already tight, and you got hit again? You see, you thought that when global diesel supplies were tight, you, Russia, could still exert some leverage, but hey, sorry to show you, right? You can't exert leverage; you don't even have enough for yourself now. I tell you, isn't this a typical variation of the American carrot and stick? Right? It's me talking to you, Russia; you have to come and join me, you have to seek help from the U.S., and you have to prove your loyalty. But at the same time, don't think it's me who can't do without you. I'm just giving you a chance, and I still have to constantly weaken and suppress you—who told you to act so uncivilized here? Right? You have to show me sincerity. So you see, it's very obvious here that the talk about Trump not caring about Ukraine or freedom and democracy, or the talk about Trump colluding with Russia—do you see it clearly now? How many things have shown you this? All these things we talk about every day, the things happening right before our eyes—where is the collusion with Russia? Ah, that's why I said the CCP was constantly fanning the flames of the 'Russiagate' scandal back then, and later, right? They wanted to use the Russia-Ukraine war to completely sever the ties between the U.S. and Russia. They thought this move was very clever. And yet, only a few years later, they have completely revealed their true colors, right?

Look, and there is something interesting about Iran today, right? Trump has already said that something big is going to happen. Regarding Iran, either they get completely wiped out, destroyed; or they come and surrender completely. Anyway, something big is going to happen, and it's going to happen soon. Look at those in Palestine, right? Hamas has basically been subdued. Israel is currently mopping up the last of the stubborn forces, and the Gaza peace agreement has already been signed. But the Palestinian organizations that played along with Hamas, like the Fatah organization, still can't get U.S. visas to come to the UN for meetings, right? The State Department won't approve them; you are just terrorists, why are you pretending? But Iran's Pezeshkian can, right? I assume he probably brought Araghchi along too, the foreign minister, right? I'm saying that what the U.S. is doing now is actually quite obvious. These two typical figures are already cooperating with the U.S. and Israel, right? They are competing to be the 'Rodriguez' figures, and they are likely going to form a team, right? You, the CCP, still think, 'Oh, they went to Beijing,' or they are talking to Wang Yi at the SCO/BRICS, or meeting with Xi Jinping, making it seem like Iran is still your good brother in your hand. I told you, they have long been cooperating, and they are playing you, Xi, right here, right? And they are dragging you in so you can't get out. These two guys are very interesting; whenever they are out for those few days, usually Iran suffers some kind of strike or something. I feel like the U.S. is afraid of accidentally wiping them out while they are there, so they wait for the two of them to pop out to attend various meetings, and then they seize the opportunity to strike Iran's stubborn forces. For example, in the last two days, look, it's all being shown here.

Look, these are the published, public flight paths, the 'track,' right? That is, the trajectories of many aircraft. This is what was shown on the public flight tracking map yesterday. The U.S. Air Force is currently very active throughout the Middle East, especially here in southern Iran, see? Everyone is saying that the U.S. appears to be making military deployments for a direct, large-scale attack, because just on the public flight map, you can see at least seven U.S. tankers. Right? So you tell me, with seven tankers in the Persian Gulf, how many planes do they need to refuel? And there was also a Poseidon drone reconnaissance flight. Additionally, Iranian media said that unidentified fighter jets appeared over Bandar Abbas; well, it's clear that Iran's radar isn't working well. The new versions shipped over by the CCP don't work well either; every time they have to rely on naked-eye observation. After observing, you don't even know what you're looking at, but you just know there are U.S. military aircraft in the sky, or other allied fighter jets. It is said that the Iranian Central Military Command issued a warning yesterday, saying that the U.S. might launch another strike, and Iran also threatened that if you dare to strike, we will deploy new weapons that you in the U.S. have never seen before, and then we'll see if you in the U.S. regret it.

Seriously, we really want to see what kind of new weapons Iran has that the U.S. has never seen before! Could it be like the CCP, which now puts Xi, you know, on the front lines, bravely acting as a pioneer of the era, leading the charge in person? You guys have to load that Mujtaba cardboard shell into a cannon and fire it out! Just like that show I watched as a kid, what was it, Dinosaur Corps Koseidon? Like that, where they directly dress up this cardboard shell as a Superman figure and launch it to strike a U.S. military base directly. Wow, the U.S. military probably wouldn't imagine that, right? Oh, I'm so curious, what other new tricks do you have? Anyway, the U.S. is watching too, seeing what new tricks you have up your sleeve. You don't even have radar, right? Anyway, everyone is staring right now, wondering if it's on the verge of breaking out. And then it gets interesting, let me show you. There is another piece of news today, and many videos from different perspectives related to this are going viral online. Oh, a UFO was spotted in Iran, really! You guys look at this thing, does it really look like a UFO? I watched at least two or three different versions of this video yesterday, let's see why it won't open here. It's this, uh, the host Benny Johnson who interviewed me before, he posted this interview/connection with U.S. Congressman Tim Burchett, do you see it? What's shown here is an unidentified flying object, this UFO was discovered by many people in Tehran, over Iran, do you see it? It looks like a flying saucer, and it's hovering there, and there are many, many little colored lights here. At first glance, I thought it was a KTV neon light version of a UFO, all kinds of things hovering and flying here, do you see it? Like a circle of colored light strips. They say it's going viral online now, saying Iran saw an unidentified flying object, and everyone wants to know what this actually is. Then Benny interviewed the congressman, and the congressman said, yes.

They did see something like this, the question is what exactly is it? Uh, this Winnie says they appear in this V-shape, oh my, it looks hard to understand, right? Uh, you say what exactly is this thing? The congressman said, hey, this thing is indeed, if they are not from this world, then is it a UFO? And if it is a UFO, why would it specifically turn on lights for the earthlings below to see after it came over? Uh, if they traveled light-years from outer space, right? How did they know they needed to prepare these little colored lights that earthlings love to see? And then Ben, you were discussing, hey, is this like the Star Wars psychological warfare that President Reagan used against Russia back then, specifically to scare these Iranian mullahs? Look at these different angles, right? From underneath it looks like a big disc, anyway you don't know what this is, right? They are discussing whether this is psychological warfare, or real alien technology, or if the U.S. has already developed such mysterious weapons based on alien technology?

Right? So, you say what is Iran bragging about? Hey, we have new weapons, you better save it! If you don't load Mujtaba, uh, if you don't load Xi Jinping into a cannon and fire him out, I won't believe you have any mysterious weapons, right? Okay, then there is another interesting point here, you say Xi just took a trip to Egypt, right? Met with President Sisi, and then they didn't even keep him for dinner, and he scurried away in a dejected manner the next day. Later, when Sisi went to the BRICS summit, he didn't deliberately chat with Xi or anything, right? Both sides kept their distance with a tacit understanding. And then, there is an interesting piece of news today, saying that CIA Director Burns, uh, paid a rare visit to Cairo on Sunday. As it happens, he also held a meeting with President Sisi. And it is said that, according to Sisi's office, now, uh, besides Sisi meeting Burns, the head of the Egyptian General Intelligence Directorate also attended the meeting, saying both sides discussed the wars in Iran, Gaza, and Sudan, as well as threats to Gulf countries and maritime security. According to the statement from the Egyptian Presidential Palace, Sisi emphasized the vital importance of resolving regional crises through political and diplomatic channels.

Ah, at the same time, the U.S. Department of State has warned U.S. citizens not to travel to the region because the hostilities between the Houthis and Saudi Arabia are continuing to escalate, right? And the State Department also said that it could escalate rapidly. Meanwhile, this visit by Radcliffe also took place just days after Saudi Crown Prince bin Salman met with Sisi in Cairo. So, in short, look, Egypt has suddenly become a popular destination, hasn't it? Suddenly, it seems like these Middle Eastern Gulf states are a bit overwhelmed, right? Especially Saudi Arabia, the largest one, which originally thought it was adept at maneuvering, and at a time when the whole world is even more dependent on it due to the energy crisis, it has suddenly become a major target for the Houthis. And the U.S. even said, 'Oh, we are willing to help, but we won't send troops for you.' Now that is very interesting, isn't it? This suddenly puts Egypt in the spotlight. Egyptian President Sisi must be enjoying this state, right? Look at him with the SCO, BRICS, and Xi even personally went to see him, right? And now bin Salman is going to see him, and Radcliffe is also going to see him.

What does this mean? Well, in a simple sentence, it's that Xi thought he was managing the Middle East, gathering the remaining forces. Didn't Israel say it? That Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthis, the Shiite militias in Iraq, and the remaining decentralized terrorist forces of the Revolutionary Guard are planning a comeback, plotting a massacre even more terrifying than October 7th? To attack Israel, right? Of course, Israel released this intelligence in advance because they know what's going on. At the same time, look at this process, right? Xi has been touting for so long that, 'Oh, your Iran can securely control the Strait of Hormuz. If that doesn't work, there's still the Houthis who can handle the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, right?' Oh, the two important Middle Eastern shipping lanes that the whole world depends on, now if I, the CCP, let them cause chaos, what can you do about it?

And didn't he specifically make a trip to Egypt? He also hoped to leverage Egypt to cooperate, right? Although he himself is actually the unluckiest one due to the war; the oil in the Strait of Hormuz has absolutely nothing to do with the CCP anymore. The Red Sea is now typically like releasing a virus, thinking it's controllable, but it's actually out of control, starting to backfire just like it did from Wuhan, right? So now it's no longer a time where you, the CCP, can put out the fire just because you started it. Have you noticed that in this process, it has slowly but surely become what the CCP wanted? It can't get it now, but at least it could use it before to contain Saudi Arabia, which has now been weakened and is increasingly clinging to the U.S. At the same time, the U.S. has unexpectedly, by constantly leaking information, let the CCP know that the U.S. and the Houthis have been in communication all along. And the Houthis don't dare to attack the U.S. military; they repeatedly express, 'I don't want to hurt the U.S. military, I'm just hitting Saudi Arabia.' Ah, this is not what the CCP wanted. The CCP wants you to hit Saudi Arabia, sure, but the main point is for you to hit the U.S. military over there, right? Ah, the Houthis are very sensible. And now look, how long has it been? This Radcliffe has personally visited Egypt, and the Egyptian President is now showing great cooperation; it's very active. You can imagine, this 'imperial expedition' by Xi, let's just say we don't even need to stretch the timeline to three months or half a year; it's simply a case where you can see it has no effect in three days, and in two weeks you can see, wow, his trip was in vain. That's the effect, do you see it?

Oh, by the way, do you know what this Xi guy did immediately after returning from the BRICS summit? He pushed for a border demarcation between China and Pakistan, involving what is known as a disputed border—one that the Chinese side recognizes. Do you actually know what he played at? He used the China-Pakistan border to finalize a consensus on the disputed border between India and Pakistan in Kashmir. In other words, he settled a long-standing border dispute between India and Pakistan—a region very close to the CCP—right? The CCP hit a wall at BRICS, failed to break the ice with India, and all that boasting was for nothing! After returning, he probably watched our show and figured it out: what was the meaning of that handshake? And just how embarrassing was that photo of Xi watering flowers? So, he immediately backtracked, ignoring his own propaganda from late August about an Indian envoy visiting the CCP to meet with Wang Yi to push for border consensus—all that was thrown to the winds. He turned around and started negotiating with Pakistan again. This is because he saw Pakistan drifting away from him, right? He went to India to stir up trouble, and the result was—well, you can't exactly call it a cold shoulder, but it was no different from having cold water splashed in his face, right? He tried to cozy up to India but got a cold reception, so upon returning, he immediately thought of Pakistan again. 'I don't care if you, Pakistan, are drifting away from the CCP; can't I just give you a big gift?' So, he decided to make the call on the border on behalf of India and started handing it over to Pakistan. Now, India is very angry about this, saying that after returning from the BRICS summit, the CCP pulled this stunt, which makes India feel that the CCP is truly unreliable and untrustworthy. Hey, let's just say, regarding this series of moves by Xi, didn't I say he would reveal his true colors in three weeks? Right?

Oh my, really, I'm impressed! And he's about to visit the United States? No wonder the U.S. has to teach you a lesson; they're really going to take you to the archives for a proper remedial class, right? When he was in Egypt, he was just taken by the Egyptian president to the museum to see what a mummy is. It confirms what we've been telling everyone since last year: Xi and the CCP are desperate to isolate themselves from the air and water of all global civilizations, right? They are isolating themselves from the outside world by putting themselves in a 'pig cage,' and wrapping themselves layer by layer, just like a mummy! 'I won't listen, I won't care, I won't look at what you're doing; I'll just stick to my original aspiration,' right? And then they are desperately trying to strengthen control and censorship, and increasing the abuse of the 'leeks.' You see, when he went to Egypt, the Egyptian president—well, he couldn't drive him away, could he? Since you showed up yourself, right? I invited you before, but never mind, it's no big deal if you come over. He just took him to the museum to show him, 'Look here, a mummy and a coffin, right? Have you figured it out yet?' You, the Xi-led CCP, have already wrapped yourself in so many layers of white cloth, right? You're just one step away from being nailed into the coffin. Now that you've seen it, this is your image, right? It seems the Xi-led CCP didn't understand. Now the U.S. is saying, 'Oh, he didn't understand the fate Egypt showed him. So now I'm going to show him from another angle: what national archives are, what true independent democracy and freedom are, these charters, history, and documents, right? And why did the U.S. give the CCP a chance in the first place? Seeing you being so shameless now, I'll have to be sorry later, right? If you still don't learn after this lesson, you can't blame me for not telling you, right?

Alright, let's continue. These past two days, everyone online is saying that NATO Secretary General Rutte stated there is a coordinated relationship between Russia, China, and North Korea, aimed at launching joint attacks on both the European and Asian fronts simultaneously, leaving the U.S. unable to handle all the situations. NATO also stated that, according to intelligence analysis, Russia might attack the Baltic states, North Korea might attack South Korea and Japan, and the CCP might simultaneously take military action against Taiwan. This is very interesting! You see, this was a serious warning issued by Rutte during his visit to the UK, calling on Europe to strengthen its own defense capabilities. He also said that one must always be wary of such a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, while Russia launches an attack on the European front—a two-theater conflict. He said, 'Everyone is asking, what if NATO allies are worried about Trump reducing troops?' Rutte said, 'Don't worry, the U.S. might reduce troops in Europe, but we also need the U.S. to maintain a strong force in the Indo-Pacific region, because if China takes action against Taiwan or other parts of the first island chain in the Indo-Pacific, then our high-level strategic decision-makers in the U.S. or Europe will be convinced that China will simultaneously force Russia to take action against us on the European front.'

See that? This statement is actually just like what we told everyone yesterday. Hey, the Russia-Ukraine war hasn't died down yet, but many European countries have already started to expand their military forces, started mobilization, and started increasing military spending, responding to the call of the Trump administration, right? So you see, Rutte is actually coordinating very well with Trump's side. Hey, look, didn't he just go to the UK? The UK is still in the stage of just talking tough, but Rutte had to specifically make this statement in the UK. And just think about it, how much has the CCP government's propaganda been bragging? Saying what? Oh, is Trump going to abandon you in NATO? Is Trump going to abandon European countries? Oh, the US is unreliable! Look at how much money and effort you spent bragging for so long; in reality, Rutte has already said it: don't worry about US military forces leaving Europe, right? First of all, in places like Poland, not only are they not withdrawing, but they are also building new US military bases. Secondly, European countries themselves have started to realize, right, that they can't just rely on the US military and lie flat, right? You have to start arming yourself through your own efforts. Furthermore, more importantly, look at what Rutte said: we also need the US to contain the CCP in the Indo-Pacific region, right? So you say, even if the US really withdraws from NATO, saying they will withdraw more than 20,000 people! The US said the Space Force will add 10,000 people, hey, there's a place to deploy them. Besides, those other 10,000-plus people, isn't it highly likely they will be transferred to various posts targeting the CCP? Whether they stay in the US for intelligence, surveillance, or air-space integrated strike chains, or are deployed to bases in various Pacific countries, or on the small and large islands of the island chains, right? Or they take on other tasks; they won't be wasted. Ah! You in the CCP have been bragging for so long, have you realized now that you've actually dug a deeper hole for yourself? Ah! The US now wants to withdraw some people from Europe because there are better places to use them, right? Aiming at you, tell me, what are you going to do?

Ah! And with this, the CCP is still at Lop Nur, still at that Ma'an base. Oh, US satellites can even see people's ID badges clearly, and inside the underground nuclear tunnels, right? Like what Iran is doing, they can even match the faces. The CCP doesn't believe in evil, thinks they are playing very cleverly, and is still constantly increasing their so-called simulated strikes against the US, Japan, and including Taiwan in that Xinjiang base. If there is any military action, right? At that time, the simulated exercises for these strike targets are still being worked on hard there. On this side, it's already said, look, this is a satellite image, this is constantly evolving, showing the entire Lop Nur test site in Xinjiang over the past year—this isn't even a year, it's actually between the end of 2025 and the end of January this year, a few months, the CCP's continuous expansion and all kinds of things they've been doing there. This is all to show everyone, there are comparison images here, right? This comparison image, the left side was taken on November 30, 2025, and the right side was taken on January 25, 2026. These are all commercial satellite images, oh. It's talking about the past few months from the end of last year to the beginning of this year, in the newly built test site at Lop Nur, there are full-scale simulation models of US and Japanese military systems, including this one here, see that? This image, this image shows this, this is a simulation model of air defense equipment, look at the rows, and then simulation models of airborne early warning and control aircraft, below are simulation models of stealth fighter jets. Hey, these models, who knows if they are made of Styrofoam. The CCP must have made a lot of money off this, hey, building it here. Anyway, this stuff is written off after being hit, and rebuilt after being written off. I really don't know how many factories that used to sell toys have been boosted, right? Now they all have a place to be useful, right? Of course, open-source intelligence agencies here take this matter very seriously, saying, look at this.

This includes a full set of F-35 and F-16 Patriot air defense missile systems, as well as E-767 airborne early warning and control aircraft, which are specifically used by the Japan Air Self-Defense Force. Models of all these are present. Moreover, Japan only has four E-767s responsible for detecting aerial and maritime targets and coordinating military aircraft operations, placing them at the core of the Allied command system in the Western Pacific. Speaking of the CCP, look, Japan only has four, and the CCP has already built strike models here for practice. Doesn't this mean the Chinese military is practicing how to discover, locate, and strike high-value targets? These types of test ranges are for testing precision-guided weapons, guidance systems, and the strike effects after hitting targets. Of course, that's what is said, but do you really believe the CCP has that capability? Right? To put it bluntly, when the CCP conducts military exercises near Taiwan, they always fire first and draw the target later; it's purely for show. So, you say they are doing this, isn't it just for outsiders to see? It's actually too good; with this evidence, the US, Japan, and others will have to frantically increase military spending and vigorously upgrade their own new weapons research and development. Otherwise, you'd be turned into a target by the CCP in a heartbeat. And for yourself, you say it, it was already bragged about, and then you bragged to the point where your enemies, right? Hostile countries like the US and Japan, are building things specifically to counter you, just like we say that AIM-260 missile is benchmarked against the CCP's J-20 and that PL-15. I ask, what kind of grand strategy is the CCP playing here? Oh, don't say, really, Chairman Xi is adept at governing the country. The things he governs, if you didn't have meetings 24/7 to brainwash people, you wouldn't be able to justify it, right? It's said that according to the observed satellite imagery, open-source intelligence agencies have stated that look, the CCP has built them before, like the models of the Taiwan Presidential Office and the core administrative streets of Taiwan for military seizure drills, and now they are striking these US and Japanese models. You know that if a Taiwan Strait war breaks out, Beijing will definitely regard US military aircraft, air defense systems, and Japanese early warning aircraft as priority hostile targets.

Listen, they think they are, right? Practicing with great intensity, making it look beautiful. In reality, you say, the open-source community has already seen through it. What about that 'Orient Shield'? That 'Orient Shield' didn't even start until the 18th, it started on September 8th, which means it overlapped with that 'Mountain Eagle' and the middle part for two days, and it will continue until September 24th. Then the US has various other military exercises; they are non-stop, conducting live-fire drills. I ask you, when the war starts, will the US and Japanese planes, stealth fighters, etc., just sit there for you to hit? Oh, you really are.

It's just that there's too much money to burn, that's what it is, right? Playing with this like a child plays with Lego, right? So rich, taking it and going crazy in there, not knowing how much has been embezzled, right? Then telling Xi, look how powerful our military is! Chairman Xi goes to the US, what is the US? Oh, the US has those stealth fighters, has air defense radars, it's nothing. Look, we hit them every day, and they don't make a sound. Chairman Xi, when you go to the US, you must properly display the demeanor of our leader!

I tell you, if Xi hadn't been fooled like that, right? It wouldn't be possible. Look, before going to India a couple of days ago, right? He didn't want to go, didn't want to go. Later, when he finally had to go, he started releasing news from the BBC to other media, saying how things would warm up after Xi went, how to break the ice, how to remove the haze of the US, right? And now look, I said it, after coming back, besides being angry, he turned around and ran to Pakistan to do some trivial things, right? What's the use? Do you think the CCP recognizes that India-Pakistan border?

Does it have any international validity? You can only say it makes India hate you more, right? And now, he has to come to the US, and they've started bragging again. Reuters analyzes it, The New York Times analyzes it, saying Trump is at a disadvantage and Xi Jinping is not in a hurry and is making concessions. Wow, you guys are really good at bragging, right? Look at the CCP's money, either it's scattered on those models at the Ma'an base, or it's scattered on these media outlets, right? After being fed, they are stuffed and bloated, you say for you, Xi, what is the practical significance?

Look at Reuters bragging here, and after the bragging, like those pro-CCP media in Taiwan, they are all desperately reprinting it, right? If you didn't know, you might really be fooled by them. What do they say? They say that Reuters analysts believe that the US and Chinese leaders have met again after only four months, and the situation of both sides has clearly reversed. China's foreign trade is surging, and Trump is constrained by the war in Iran and declining approval ratings.

Just look at everything in reverse, and then say that as one grows, the other wanes, lowering external expectations for major breakthroughs at the summit, because Xi Jinping is currently in an advantageous position and is in no rush to make concessions. That truce in the Taiwan trade war, the CCP wants to extend it for a year, while the US says half a year is acceptable, but a year is out of the question, right? Well, the CCP thinks half a year is fine too; better to live a miserable life than to die, right? We can just scrape by for another half year, right? And the so-called war in Iran has become the focus.

I really admire these sycophantic intellectuals, you know? Otherwise, I would say, like when the COVID-19 outbreak happened, you shouldn't hold too high expectations for the conscience and morality of those so-called scientists, because whether it's scientists or the media, you know, they are just doing it for a living, which doesn't mean there aren't scumbags among them. On the contrary, sometimes due to factors of the era and so on, the threshold in these fields might be lower, right? Being a scumbag in these fields might be easier than in fields that require more mental labor or a clearer head, you know? For example.

Many people who studied biology back then, the scores required weren't that high, and it seemed a bit superficial, right? After getting in, even before biology was heavily developed, many of the older generation who went to study it—you can't say all of them had the ambition to be scientists with a conscience, right? Actually, to put it bluntly, like being a doctor or a politician, you say they are doing it to make money, so the threshold might be relatively higher; it's harder to get into medical school than to study biology, right? The threshold for being a politician is relatively higher than for being a journalist, but that doesn't mean scumbags don't flock to other fields, right? There are good and bad everywhere, and conversely, there are more scumbags in fields with lower thresholds, right?

With the CCP pulling strings behind the scenes, these scumbags are even more willing to let bad money drive out good. Look at those who helped the CCP during COVID-19, cheering them on, and even now dragging their feet in the US, preventing the tracing of the truth about unrestricted biological weapons and viruses, preventing the regulation of these weaponized funds, and preventing accountability for Fauci and the CCP—they are still jumping around, right?

And the media goes without saying. After those fake news outlets like CNN were kicked out these past few days, oh, they issued statements saying they would sue. Trump even said you are a threat to national security, right? If you don't show your power, they treat you like a sick cat; once you show your power, as long as they aren't dead yet, they will still be stubborn. So, once you see this clearly, you know it's nothing strange. Are there scumbags at Reuters? Absolutely, right? Are there scumbags who know how to write? Even more so. So look, this analysis from Reuters is just lying through their teeth, saying.

Ah, look, for example, this matter of extending the trade war truce is another huge victory for the CCP, isn't it? Saying this foreign policy expert from Brookings or whatever, saying that Xi Jinping may not necessarily be pursuing concrete results, but hopes to extend the gentleman's agreement with Trump to buy time for China to strengthen its own power. That sounds nice, isn't it just trading time for space? At the beginning, they even directly proposed extending the truce until the end of Trump's term. Isn't your calculation a bit too obvious? Ah, there are still more than two years left in the term, right?

Are you that afraid that Trump will kill you in the trade war by then? No, you're thinking too simply. This trade war, let's say, the original one-year extension was supposed to last until the midterm elections in November. Now you're still coming here holding this as a big deal—haven't you realized that you are actually already outdated?

Ah, isn't the biggest thing recently the introduction of the Graham Act? Trump has already signed it. Now, the first thirty days—this first thirty-day period after signing is for various departments to conduct self-inspections and preparations. Thirty days, counting from now, there should only be about twenty-seven days left before the first phase of the list or targets or whatever is released, right? It's already moving according to the act; government departments and others are already cooperating to find out which entities and individuals are involved in transactions or cooperation with Iran, Russia, etc., that need to be hit, as well as how to impose tariffs of up to 100%—everything is already automatically rolling in this process.

Are you still stuck in the past, clinging to that trade war and trade agreement? Let me tell you, that agreement was from a time before this act existed, even before the IEEPA, right? Before the Supreme Court halted the entire emergency tariff, the Trump administration was essentially saying: before I build a highway, I need people to be able to cross the river, so I'll lay down a temporary wooden bridge. That was the strategy. Now that the highway is open—so sturdy, so beautiful, so spacious—is that temporary wooden bridge under the highway still that important? Oh, that thing? It can be dismantled whenever. If you really want to keep this wooden bridge here, well, you say you're used to walking on it, right? It's not impossible, but you can't expect this wooden bridge to last that long. The U.S. is saying, "You want to wait another two years? I'm only looking at six months, because I'm the one in control of the whole situation." Do you see it now? That's it. We'll break this down for everyone in a moment. First, look at this Reuters puff piece, saying, "Oh, has the pressure failed to force the CCP to make concessions?" Oh, it's still the CCP, "exporting so many products to the U.S." The implication is that your strikes were useless, right?

And they say experts claim that trying to force the CCP to make concessions purely through trade agreement pressure hasn't happened. Well, now you know, we've said it before: can you really rely solely on a trade war? That's just one of the weapons, right? Does the U.S. really rely only on that? Never mind how these out-of-context expert comments are placed in Reuters interviews. Just look at how one moment it's the AIM-260 matching your J-20, your PL-15, right? The next moment it's "economic ground strikes" hitting all the shadow nodes and financial nodes related to the CCP's unrestricted warfare. Do you think any of these are meant to kill the CCP purely through a trade agreement? Not at all, right?

It's like that CSIS report saying, "Oh, if we only rely on Patriots to fight the CCP, at most after 30 days, the Patriots won't be able to keep up." First, they didn't consider the inventory replenishment of Patriots that companies like General Dynamics are currently rushing to produce; second, didn't they also fail to consider all the other handy weapons available? Right? So here, let's look at what the analysts are saying again. This analyst—Reuters specifically went to find a Fudan professor, a shill, right? This rat-head named Wu Xingbo. You know, when it comes to Taiwan and Japan, whether it's Reuters or the BBC—not to mention the New York Times—they just have to shill for the CCP.

On this matter, if they don't find someone from Fudan, or Renmin University, or these purebred CCP shills, they can't speak to Xi's heart, you understand? You have to shill in a way that touches his heart. On these issues of Taiwan and Japan, you can see it now. Even if the U.S. finds some think-tank commentators, since the U.S.-Japan alliance and the defense of Taiwan are bipartisan issues—including arms sales to Taiwan and so on—it's very hard for them to find people in the U.S. who can speak to Xi's heart. So it's very interesting; whenever they see these topics, they usually interview some Chinese shills, especially those from the mainland or Singapore, sometimes even the UK, right?

Look, this Fudan shill said, "U.S.-China relations are becoming more transactional. Washington may want to prioritize trade, but for Beijing, hmm, if the U.S. is willing to accommodate China on the Taiwan issue, then China is willing to respond to U.S. concerns on law enforcement cooperation, agricultural product procurement, and other issues." Oh my, they have truly, completely fooled themselves into a stupor!

Let's take a look. Bessent said something very heavy-hitting today. What is it? Bessent stated in an exclusive interview that starting Wednesday, September 23—which is the day Xi Jinping arrives in the U.S. (Xi arrives in the afternoon, I believe)—from the morning, before you even arrive, all Iranian airlines will have their services cut off, and banks will continue to have their connections severed. All Iranian airlines must be rejected by destination airports, otherwise, those airports will also be kicked out of the U.S. dollar system. Do you remember when I told you about Mahan Air, and I specifically showed you China's Baiyun Airport and others, including their cooperation with China Southern Airlines, and how they were bragging about it? Well, look, this has already implicated them!

It said that if they land, you cannot provide fuel to any of their Iranian airline planes, you cannot provide landing services, and you cannot sell tickets. Hey, those tickets from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to Iran are selling like hotcakes, aren't they? Zhihu and others have bragged about it countless times. Now, starting September 23rd, if you provide these services or even help sell tickets, you will be kicked out of the SWIFT system. We know who they are, they know who they are, and we are putting a stop to this. Oh, and by the way, looking at the comments on Twitter, the big commentary accounts have already said, 'Oh, although they didn't publicly name China, nor did they specifically announce how to counter the CCP's behavior, these are all major measures by Bessent that directly impact the CCP,' right? You see, the Americans have figured it out. Hey, is it really just about hitting Iran? It's hitting you, the CCP, isn't it?

Let's look at how Bessent specifically explained it. The 'sticky rice balls' (netizens) translated it too. This was a CNBC interview, and it was given right after Bessent's eight-hour consultation with He Lifeng. The reporter asked him, 'You are not the Secretary of Defense, nor are you the Secretary of State; you are only responsible for applying pressure through economic means. So, clearly, they don't care about the Iranian people. They might have extremely strong—Iran might still have extremely strong payment capabilities. Can they survive the midterm elections as President Trump thinks?'

Bessent said: 'If you want to use the midterm elections as a timeline, I cannot tell you exactly if it's a week, a month, or six months. But I can clearly tell you that we are exerting unprecedented pressure on Iran. The Treasury's sanction authority was actually strengthened after the 9/11 incident. From 9/11 to now, there have been many authorizations, such as anti-terrorism and so on. About a month ago, we obtained five new authorizations and have already implemented strikes against the Iranian regime in areas including aviation, shipping, cryptocurrency, and gold. It was just a month ago, economically speaking.'

Speaking of September 23rd, all Iranian airlines' operations worldwide will be shut down. How can we do that? If a plane lands, you cannot provide fuel, you cannot provide landing services, and you cannot sell tickets to them; otherwise, you will be kicked out of the SWIFT system. We see accomplices all over the world; we know who they are, they know it themselves, and we are putting a stop to all of this. Oh, you say, the boss of the accomplices is coming to Washington in person, and then...

On the day of arrival, the U.S. tells you first: 'You better bring your welcome gift.' We have already completely struck and shut down the Iranian aviation industry, right? If you are still providing these services there, still engaging in shady dealings, then sorry, we will have no choice but to—using Bessent's exact words today—unfortunately, we will have to strike you too, right? Oh, this 'unfortunately,' really, then you can't blame me even if you die; I can only say, 'Oh, how unfortunate.' But what can I do, right?

Then he mentioned the three banks being sanctioned, right? Egypt's second-largest bank's Dubai branch transferred $1.8 billion to Iran, that's between China and Iran. Turkey's 30th largest bank, the one set up by the CCP—what is it called? Gold Global, right? So, the Turkish Global Gold, that small bank, is also going to be closed. And Russia's VTB, the second-largest bank, its overseas branch—the Shanghai branch, right? Especially Shanghai, isn't it? Similarly, he said they all have to be closed, and he also said those branches don't count for much in China. That sentence is very interesting! That sentence actually means, look...

The banks being closed are actually not the core banking system of the CCP. His meaning is, I am closing these, and I also know that as long as I give you time, you will continue to look for new branches in various countries to help you do the work, to help you launder money, right? So, we are currently hitting these few major blood vessels that have already formed, but...

You must believe that sooner or later, that knife will be plunged into the financial heart of the CCP. Don't be in a hurry! The host asked: 'Did you talk about this? Did you talk to He Lifeng?' Bessent said: 'Yes, we talked. Communicating quietly behind the scenes with these countries is much better than making a big public display. Chinese financial regulatory departments, including Governor Pan Gongsheng of the People's Bank of China, have also been deeply involved in this.'

See? I'm just saying, I guess now that Xi looks at Venezuela, looks at Iran, and then looks at the cooperation between Russia and the U.S., it's hard to say whether he can continue to trust He Lifeng and Pan Gongsheng. Are these people talking here while upholding the philosophy of loyalty to Xi, or has the quiet behind-the-scenes communication already begun during the process, um, paving their own way out? It's hard to say. Anyway, you see Bessent specifically named that he was talking to these people. Oh, this...

This is psychological warfare! It's a real mind game! You don't know whether to believe it or not, right? Let me tell you, this is truly fascinating. Take this airline situation, for example. It's not just about airports like Baiyun Airport; as long as Iran Air is cooperating with you, selling tickets, or operating routes, the airports and related group service providers involved here are already on the blacklist. And don't forget, this is an economic zone now. Bessent has already summarized it for you directly.

Stripping away all the complex legal jargon, you can simply understand that these entities and individuals will be kicked out of the US dollar system. Think about it: the various entanglements between the CCP and Iran in the aviation industry—I'm telling you, it's not just about Iranian suppliers. It includes entities like airport operators and their entire groups. And these airport groups, right? In the CCP, they are all state-owned, and they have subsequent overseas investment projects, cooperation projects, and domestic construction projects—all of these are already...

It's a case of pulling one hair and moving the whole body; it's like dominoes, right? Or, you could say it's like grapes hanging on the same vine. And take airport aviation, for example. When a plane lands, it needs fuel, and the fuel supplier is also on the list. Also, things like catering companies, software companies—those count too. And what about aircraft maintenance, parts, and suppliers? And you might ask, what about the terminals or hangars?

If they aren't owned by the airport group, but you are renting the land from me—I'm the landlord, and I lease it to you for airport operations—the owner is also on the list. Then there are travel agencies, right? Ticket sales platforms, distribution systems, and more importantly, these ticket payments and fuel fees—the costs for airport services—don't you have to go through banks?

Ah, bank settlements; the banks are on the list too, right? And all these reinsurance companies, aircraft leasing companies, and many large and small middlemen—even those helping Iranian aviation change flight numbers, modify aircraft registrations, or act as intermediaries. Oh, I'm telling you, they are all on the list. This is the true scope of the strike against the entire Iranian aviation industry. The US has placed all these nodes within the scope of being kicked out of the SWIFT system! So, do you see it? It's just that...

Starting from September 23rd, if you don't cut this off, right? Then unfortunately, there are already so many authorizations, and why did he specifically emphasize 9/11? Because Iran is the biggest state sponsor of terrorism, and the CCP is Iran's biggest supporter. Bessent specifically mentioned this again this morning, right? Saying you are Iran's client, right? The Congress even said directly that you, Xi Jinping, are...

The biggest supporter of Iran attacking the US, right? So all of this, I tell you, this is the day Xi landed on September 23rd. At the same time, why do we call it the Sword of Damocles? Right? Just like in the story, the sword hanging over your head will fall at any moment. Look at how the Lude Media cited Bessent's exact words from this interview this morning. Didn't he say that when he met with He Lifeng, he told him, "We have the Sword of Damocles hanging over your heads"? Isn't it a coincidence? I mentioned the Sword of Damocles just before, and Bessent cited it in his speech too, right? That's what they call great minds thinking alike, isn't it?

We said that in the legend, there was only one sword hanging. Oh, but with Xi coming over now, it doesn't feel like just one sword; it's like walking on thin ice! There are piles of swords hanging over his head everywhere he goes. This one represents the Iranian aviation industry, that one represents Russian fuel, this one represents fentanyl, that one represents nuclear weapons. And so on and so forth. Xi coming over is really...

If things go wrong, right? If the rhythm isn't mastered well, he might end up as minced pork. That would be a huge mess, right? Of course, I believe in the US's control; they won't turn you into a meat pie right now, right? They aren't in a hurry; they are teasing you slowly, and there are many things to finish before they put you on the dining table together. But if you're going to be like Reuters—no, not Lude Media, but Reuters—still here contradicting us, right? Saying that Xi going there shows he still has the upper hand. Oh, that's like telling the chef that the pig outside has the upper hand. That pig doesn't even know...

You are being made into this pork sausage, not a meatball, right? That pig is quite something. Oh my, once that pig is in the kitchen, won't it have the upper hand? You know, unless you're dead drunk, you wouldn't say something like that, right? And think about it, this whole thing, right? When the strike comes, well, of course, it might not necessarily start from the airport first. It's already on the dining table; which one to eat first and which one to eat later, right? It's not that urgent. It's like now, it's equivalent to putting the entities and individuals related to Iranian aviation, especially those in the CCP-ruled China that we just listed for everyone, all into the kitchen, the ingredients are prepped, right? When to serve them, which one to pick on which day, well, there's no rush for that.

If you ask me, actually, directly striking the airport isn't even the first line of action. If you want to strike, you should start by striking banks and fuel suppliers first, because that is more realistic, that is, more effective, right? For example, tell the Bank of China that starting September 23rd, you cannot handle these fuel fees and airport fees for these airlines, right? Tell you fuel suppliers, you cannot provide them with fuel; tell you ticketing platforms, you cannot sell or settle payments, etc. It just so happens that Pan Gongsheng is here, and He Lifeng is here too, right? Well.

Listen carefully, hurry up, don't wait until the strike comes and say I didn't give you a heads-up in advance. Trump calls it a strike, and that means Pan Gongsheng and He Lifeng, right? The grand eunuchs came to clear the path first and have already familiarized themselves with the terrain. Then, when the strike comes, when Trump talks to you about this, he is looking for your stance. Your yes, your no, your lack of stance, your non-committal attitude, your stalling for time.

In the eyes of the U.S., these are all signals you are directly expressing. This thing, let me tell you, Xi is here, even if he pretends to be a wooden statue, it's useless. The U.S. is watching your reaction, and there are corresponding ways to play for every kind of reaction. In short, you can't say, 'Oh, I've never heard of this matter,' or 'I can't do this, I need to go back and discuss it.' Anyway, the retreat has already been blocked for you; there's nothing to go back and discuss. Before you even landed, we had already said these words to you, right? And it has already started to be implemented, September 23rd, so you just need to come here and state your position. As for any tricks you want to play here or whatever.

Don't underestimate the U.S.'s control over you, right? When you come to the U.S., do you dare to refuse? Say, 'No, I want to help Iranian airlines,' right? Then are you tired of living? If you say 'yes, yes, I agree,' that's great. The U.S. says you've already said it, and the things we've recorded are all sent to the National Archives, see? This will be declassified sooner or later, some don't need to be declassified, but they can be accessed at any time, right? This thing of yours.

Once you've said it, if you want to swallow it back, sorry, when the U.S. comes to beat you later, it's all written down in the little notebook. And our little notebooks are stored in the National Archives, right? Don't forget, the acting archivist of the National Archives is still Mr. Rubio. Oh my, let's just say this series of operations couldn't be smoother, right? From the perspective of national security, diplomacy, and archives, it's all a one-stop service for you. You CCP folks are always glaring at Rubio, aren't you just finding enemies for yourself? Right? He holds multiple positions now, for fear that you CCP folks will find a crack to slip through, right?

Now I'm telling you, even if you're a loach, you have to stay here. So now, CCP-ruled China, look at how you're going to evade it? Ah, of course, the CCP can say, 'Oh, I can still stall, think of a way.' Let's just say that every breath you take, from the moment you open your eyes, you have to think about how to bargain with the U.S. to ensure that your breathing is smooth today and you won't feel like you're suffocating. How pathetic is this? And as we said, is it really just such a simple problem? Ah, is it just about striking the aviation industry and striking these few banks?

We have to speak clearly, right? Whether it's the economic zone, the Graham Act, or what Bessent has been emphasizing repeatedly, isn't it just telling everyone repeatedly that it's not purely about striking Iran, nor is it purely about striking Russia, the main target is you, and your unrestricted warfare. If it weren't for the unrestricted warfare, would it be called an economic zone? Ah, this is describing an operational phase of a war, right? And a zone means that the war hasn't just begun.

This is the entire economic battlefield, and intelligence deployment and mobilization have already been completed. Now it is time to formally break through your CCP's outer defenses, and then we will start a counter-offensive landing and advance into strategic depth until the day of victory. This is the meaning of D-Day, do you see it? So here, let's just say, the CCP still thinks, 'Oh, look, you're striking, striking, striking,' well, if it really doesn't work, in Xi's words, it is.

Oh, these tentacles can be cut off, right? Ah, and who knows, they might even regenerate after being cut, right? It's not impossible to redraw the red lines further back; maybe one day I'll find an opportunity and suddenly push them back forward again, right? Haven't you actually noticed during this process? It is the CCP that is paralyzing itself; it dares not face reality. It's like Ma Baoguo thinking, 'Oh, one day I might just knock Tyson down, right? I don't believe Tyson never gets a headache or catches a cold.'

What if one day Tyson, for example, visits India and eats some street food, right? Hey, after eating that street food, Tyson gets diarrhea, then it's not impossible for me, Ma Baoguo, to defeat Tyson while he's on the toilet, right? He is still counting on this, but ultimately, first, he fails to recognize his own strength, and second, he is truly too brain-dead, while at the same time needing to save face, so he has no choice but to...

Make up these words to comfort himself, right? A beautiful dream, right? What's on Xi's mind is called the 'China Dream,' right? I've always said his choice of names is unlucky; one moment it's the 'China Dream,' the next it's 'making dumplings' (a slang for military buildup), right? And all this stuff about 'success does not have to be achieved by me,' which reversed means 'success will definitely not be achieved by me,' right? You tell me, what are these names you're coming up with? It's really, none of these are good omens! So look here, like returning to what Bessent said, it's just that...

The Trump administration's main strategy is uncertainty. You know the sword hanging over your head, you know the person upstairs is eventually going to drop the second shoe, but you never know which day he will actually be triggered. This is what the CCP fears most. To be honest, seeing the Graham Act now, it actually thinks, 'Fine, so what if he has it?' As long as I can find his rhythm and try every possible way to forge a path where there is none—after all, a path is made when many people walk it—I might even be able to drag him down too. But when you combine this with the uncertainty of the Trump administration, that's not fun at all.

Right? So now look, Bessent has already talked to you, but apart from this Iran Air matter, giving you a deadline of September 23rd, he doesn't tell you what the other deadlines are, nor does he tell you which day he will completely wipe out Iran. This allows the CCP, for example, to think that if the Iranian battlefield is completely cleared in half a year, the CCP can still ponder, 'If worst comes to worst, I'll just return to Iran six months and one day later,' right? Or if you say, 'I'll wipe them out the day after tomorrow,' the CCP might think, 'Fine, if he wipes them out the day after tomorrow, I can just make a comeback next week.'

Now, there is simply no possibility of that; you can't figure this out, you know? And look, all these unrestricted warfare tactics you've engaged in—for example, just here in Iran—your unrestricted warfare involves outputting dual-use technologies related to Iranian aviation and shipping under various guises, and then converting oil payments into gold, digital assets, etc., to evade U.S. sanctions and supervision. These are the core pillars of the unrestricted warfare you've built for so many years. Oh, Bessent just casually said, 'When our D-Day operations begin, we have obtained new authorizations targeting these.'

In other words, doesn't this mean that all the important nodes in the unrestricted transnational network you, the CCP, have expanded with Iran as the radius have already been targeted by the enemy on the battlefield, right? Just tell me, can oil be sold to you? It can't. After it's sold, can the money get through? It can't. Can it be exchanged for gold, U.S. dollars, or cryptocurrency? It can't be exchanged, and the intermediate nodes are also being wiped out for you. And if you say you won't exchange for money, can you exchange for technology? Your technology can't get through either.

Hey, no aviation, no shipping, right? Do you really rely on those land trains crossing Central Asia? You don't even know which section in the middle might be derailed, overturned, or bombed, right? And then, after you want to build these weapons and such, and deliver them to terrorist proxies in various countries, there is no network.

Everything is on the ground, on this target. Let's say, look at what the CCP has arranged after all this time; what has it arranged? Personally commanding for these ten-plus years, hasn't it all been for nothing? Right? And look at how Iran is being beaten now. You don't even need to mention Pezeshkian or Araghchi cooperating from the inside; externally, Egypt—I don't believe Ad-Krief would dare say a word of dissent when told to cooperate with the Egyptian president and intelligence chief. Unless he doesn't want to sit in that position anymore, right? Hey, and you say the UAE is cooperating better than ever; as for Turkey, now if you ask me to close it, I'll proactively close it for you to see, I don't even need you, Trump, to say a second word.

Right? Russia doesn't care either. Russia has been looking at you, Xi, with increasing displeasure anyway; come to my plate sooner. I, your 'dear father,' can't wait, right? And then you have Saudi Arabia, which was jumping back and forth quite happily, but now realizes, 'Oh, I've backed the wrong side,' right? And the Houthis, supported by Iran, are attacking you.

Ah, the air defense capabilities of the CCP, those heirloom missiles, right? Once they stop being heirlooms, you'll see them completely exposed for what they really are! And then there's this, what, the CCP's digital yuan, what about that bridge? Forget about it, right? A few days into the war, Saudi Arabia realized that if they didn't dismantle that bridge first, the U.S. wouldn't be able to start building bridges with you or helping you, right? So look at this, the CCP is playing a good hand there, isn't it? Ah, that's not just losing miserably; that's basically losing until you're almost down to your underwear, and yet they can still brag about it. Alright, let's move on.

The Graham Act has already been implemented and signed, right? That means, in October—since it was signed on September 18th—October 18th is the first 30-day mark. From that day on, the executive branch must complete the identification, rule-making, sanction lists, tariff recommendations, and specific enforcement actions within the statutory time limit, understand? And you say the CCP is jumping back in here, oh, getting Reuters to shill for them, getting The New York Times to shill for them, bragging that the trade agreement will be extended for a truce, etc. Come, let me show you this calendar.

The trade agreement was originally scheduled for one year, until November 10th, and as I just said, about a month ago—specifically three weeks ago—the first round of implementation actions for the Graham Act had to be completed by October 18th. If you don't complete it, you have to come out and explain why you're dragging your feet; this is the law, you know. So, do you see?

Is the trade agreement really that important anymore? Ah, back then, when you were forced to kneel by executive orders and negotiations, right? And then agreed to this trade agreement in Busan, right? Our audience can see clearly that this has directly turned into unlimited restrictions; that's what it is. It used to be, oh, I'll add tariffs on certain areas, and we need to negotiate on certain content, so we have an agreement. Then, after you came to kneel, you agreed to buy soybeans, you agreed to rare earth trades, so we gave you a one-year extension. These were individual options corresponding to the full coverage of the current Graham Act. At the time, they were just some selected options.

Do you remember when I first started doing this show last year, I repeatedly emphasized a concept: the U.S. trade agreement, this term of Trump's, is no longer the same game as before. The old game was riddled with holes, and the CCP wasn't afraid at all. This year—or rather, starting last year—this game has already intensified! And here, every time you come to talk, every time you walk out that door, we tell everyone about the big pitfalls inside—what trade deficits, what uh, what fentanyl, ah, right? Various things. Facts have proven that we weren't wrong, right?

Ah, and then after the CCP finally dragged it out for more than half a year and talked, they found that it really was, the pit was indeed too big. Xi had to be dragged to Busan to kneel in person, and then trade the trade agreement for his own lingering survival. Well, it's been a year now, the CCP hasn't really fulfilled the agreement, and it turns out that Trump hasn't stepped down after this past year! Although the CCP is still counting on the midterm elections to turn things around, to kick Trump out, or at least make him a minority party, to drag the feet of the Trump administration. But let me tell you, if you look at those pro-CCP propaganda pieces, right? Then you don't need to understand the world situation at all. Trump is now...

There are dozens of super-donors here in the U.S., and even the anti-Trump media I read today have to admit that 90 percent or whatever of them are now supporting Trump. So, all those polls the CCP makes up, oh, Republican congressmen are distancing themselves from Trump, oh, how and how—that's pure nonsense, that's just to keep Xi happy. As long as Xi believes it, that's fine, but let's not get fooled by him into the sweet potato field. So here we say, do you see? The targets the U.S. set for the CCP on this trade agreement last year.

The CCP has been played around with for over a year! Now they have internalized it themselves. Hey, you say this cognitive warfare has been internalized, and they themselves think only these few points are important. So I have to argue with you, you have to give me an extension! You can't not give me an extension! Ah, we are coming over now, wanting to argue with you about this, and even putting this on the achievements that Xi hasn't finished yet, but is already dying to celebrate with gongs and drums. Let's briefly...

Let's sort it out. The original trade agreement said to suspend the 24 percent reciprocal tariffs on China. Do you think 24 percent is important? Whether it's suspended or not? Now that the sanctions bill against Russia and Iran is out, the maximum levy is 100 percent! Ah, this is no longer about Chinese products; it's because you are funding the wars in Russia and Iran.

It's the law, you know. You sign an extension for half a year or a year, don't impose the 24 percent first, this 100 percent will be added on top of it, is the 24 percent still important? And extending parts of the Section 301 tariffs, not adding them to you first—this was the original U.S. official version of the trade agreement, which also included delaying some Section 301 sanctions on China's shipbuilding, shipping, and logistics.

Now, simply because you are providing support to Russia's military-industrial and energy sectors, and because of your cozy relationship with Iran, the entire network is now being targeted. This is no longer just a matter of tariffs—tariffs were increased by up to 100%—but now it is about asset freezes. This bill talks about freezing assets, banning transactions, kicking you out of SWIFT, prohibiting insurance, blocking settlements, and so on. Compared to this, those Section 301 tariffs seem like child's play, don't they? You keep asking for delays, but they are already directly freezing and seizing your assets. Isn't your negotiation pointless? And what about the previous talk of lowering fentanyl-related tariffs or delaying the Commerce Department's entity list—that export control stuff? If you were on that list, certain things couldn't be exported to you. Is that even important anymore? Now, the Treasury Department's D-day level of strike force is focused on this. The Graham bill directly escalates to the freezing and blocking of affiliated companies, and it requires you—the banks, institutions, and government departments—to automatically go and investigate yourselves. Do you understand? What was this equivalent to before? It was like the unrestricted warfare networks the CCP set up, wearing the mask of civil-military fusion and corporate fronts. Previously, if the U.S. put me on a list, I could still sue them, like Alibaba did. And in your trade agreements, you could still get them to delay sanctions or export controls, giving you a truce period. Now, while you are still fixated on delaying the implementation of that agreement for a few months, the Graham bill has seamlessly taken over. Your first-year delay hasn't even expired, yet the first phase of their implementation is already legally required and has automatically begun. Meanwhile, you are still waiting, thinking, 'I can still delay these export controls, right?' The U.S. side might say they can delay them, but at the same time, they give you the bad news: you are already on our bill's list. When the time comes, it's direct freezing, direct blocking, and direct confiscation, right? It's no longer about whether they regulate or sell things to you! And what about the fentanyl issue? China is still thinking, 'Pfft, am I actually going to cooperate with you? I'm just playing with you.' But look, during this year that the U.S. has been forcing you to cooperate, they have decimated your networks. And not only that, the evidence collected simultaneously will be used later with this bill. I won't hit you with fentanyl tariffs; what I want is your entire banking and corporate chain. I will move where I need to move, seize what I need to seize, and block what I need to block at the root. Do you see now? And the sanctions—the entities involved here are not just linked to fentanyl, financing, or money laundering; they are also involved with Iran and Russia. These are the nodes the CCP uses to juggle ten plates at once, right? And think about it, Russia and Iran are constantly proving their loyalty to you. Your fentanyl network is just one of the functions of these entities. From the perspective of Russia and Iran, your entire node network is already included, because you all wear many hats, right? Add to that the increased U.S. crackdown on telecommunications fraud, and wow! Let me put it this way: you only saw this little bit at first, but it turned out to be 'a leaf obscuring the vision.' The U.S. showed you these few leaves, you bit down on them and wouldn't let go, and then they went and chopped down the whole forest! In the end, you're left holding that leaf, only to find the forest is gone! That's how they play, understand? Why else would I say your brains don't work? That's why Trump has to teach you a lesson! Look at this—the White House announced the schedule today: Xi Jinping is coming on the 23rd, bringing Peng Liyuan with him. The U.S. President and First Lady will go to Andrews Air Force Base on the 23rd to welcome them. And then? After the welcome, on the morning of the 24th, Melania and Trump will hold an arrival ceremony at the White House. At the same time, 479 officers and soldiers representing all branches of the U.S. military will participate in playing the Chinese and American national anthems. Following that, Xi and Trump will each deliver speeches, and then a military parade will be held in the Rose Garden. My goodness, although the U.S. doesn't do goose-stepping in their parades, they will show Xi the military might of the United States! Oh, just imagine, Xi, you might see them appear outside your door in Zhongnanhai later. It's like Maduro opening his eyes to find a parade in his bedroom, right? Delta Force entering your bedroom—not only letting you see their agility but also showing you new weapons, letting you board helicopters and U.S. aircraft carriers, and by the way, letting you personally experience the MDC. Wow, how exciting is that! First, they show you the parade, and then they specifically show you a B-2 bomber and four F-22 Raptor fighter jets flying overhead. Hey, you've seen enough of your J-20s; let me show you these.

B-2 and F-22, and then it gets interesting. Following that is the bilateral meeting, and then the First Lady will visit the National Museum of Asian Art at the Smithsonian Institution. Meanwhile, on the evening of the 24th, there will be a state dinner in the East Room of the White House. On the morning of the 25th, Trump and his wife will welcome Xi Jinping and his wife at the White House again, and after a tea session in the Red Room, they will.

At the same time, they will head to the National Archives to visit and browse a series of archives and documents of great historical significance to U.S.-China relations. Afterwards, they will say goodbye at the National Archives; you can just head to the airport from there, no need for a send-off. This is very interesting. Now that the whole schedule has been made public, we have to say, first of all, I took a look, and the U.S. definitely catered to Xi's little insecurities. Hey, why did Xi come now? He probably thinks, "This isn't so terrifying after all, I can start bragging now, right?" Because, in this whole process, there are actually no questions from reporters.

What has been disclosed so far is a brief opening statement, and then after the military parade, there is a closed-door meeting. Before the state dinner, there is a public speech, but throughout the entire process, apart from Xi being able to read from his little notebook, there is no Q&A session or any random improvisation. So, Xi must be thinking, "See? How can I not have the upper hand? Trump doesn't even dare to arrange things that would make me lose face, right?" Oh, with this, Xi can rest easy.

But the question is, let's say, a head of state visits the U.S., and they specifically go to the National Archives to meet, and it's not just the First Lady accompanying him—this so-called simple display of cultural diplomacy—but Xi Jinping, Trump, and both First Ladies are going together. Haha, this thing. Of course, the CCP is definitely bragging about it now, and I believe the reason the CCP agreed to this itinerary is that they must interpret it as, "Oh, the U.S. is trying to show the world that U.S.-China relations are recorded in history, and you can't overturn them. We, the CCP, right? This is crucial to you, the U.S., and Trump is begging me to have a good relationship with him because there are historical documents to prove it." He definitely thinks that way. But, that's why I say you lack culture, right? Here, the U.S. National Archives, as we just mentioned, first and foremost.

It preserves the core founding documents of the United States: the 1776 Declaration of Independence, the 1787 U.S. Constitution, and the 1791 Bill of Rights. These are of absolute significance. The Declaration of Independence tells you the basic principles of the legitimacy of political rights; the Constitution constructed the current federal government of the United States and stipulated the limitations and structure of power; the Bill of Rights provides constitutional guarantees for individual freedom and other rights. This year is also the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, right? In itself, this "250" is the theme. So this is national narrative. Ah, the United States is not talking about a certain president, a certain political party, or a certain leader's private property. It doesn't talk about ah, this Roman, it doesn't talk about this, uh, the Chinese Communist Party as the core, Xi Jinping as the core. This government's power comes from the continuous existence of the constitutional order and is subject to constraints. And this is the fundamental order that the United States has received from the system and the law since its 250th anniversary of founding. You, the People's Republic of China, is Trump's president who defined you as the recognized national strategy of the United States.

This is an existential threat to the United States since its founding, unprecedented. That is to say, ever since the archives began collecting this version of the Declaration of Independence, right? This Declaration of Independence, along with the hard-won American freedom, values, and its system over the past 250 years—you, the CCP, are the greatest existential threat to it. And now Xi Jinping, this party leader, dictator, and authoritarian ruler, has come to the United States. What do you think it means that he arranged for you to visit the National Archives? Isn't it just to tell you something?

We have had 250 years of constitutional government, leading the world for 250 years on this most prosperous land, under a system guaranteed by this Constitution, allowing people to have freedom, dignity, and the rule of law. What are you shouting about over there, Xi? This so-called socialism with Chinese characteristics? This rule of law with Chinese characteristics? This so-called democratic dictatorship with Chinese characteristics, or whatever else? Don't give me that nonsense. Come, come, I know you haven't studied it. I've brought you to the archives specifically to learn! You can't just go there, look at the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Bill of Rights, and think you can get by just by listening to the interpreter and wearing that half-dead smile on your face. When the photos come out, you have the U.S. President and the First Lady accompanying you and your wife, the dictators, posing for a photo in front of the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights, explaining their significance to you, and then you go back and continue your dictatorial and authoritarian rule, fantasizing about your 'dragon veins' and how they will keep your regime secure for 150 or 500 years.

This whole 'Chinese Dream' act of yours, isn't it just completely indefensible? Honestly, it feels like the U.S. moved the warm-up for the Beijing trial to the National Archives, doesn't it? Think about it: if the U.S. President took a Nazi—let's say Hitler, assuming Hitler hadn't died yet—and before the U.S. defeated him, brought him over to look at the Holocaust Museum... let's hypothesize this scenario, right? If there were first a display at the Holocaust Museum showing your Nazi atrocities and inhumane acts, and then one day the U.S. invited Hitler to the Holocaust Museum, wouldn't it be obvious that this is putting you in the position of someone about to be put on trial, giving you a preview of common knowledge? Like, 'I am judging you, or I am taking you out, and there is a reason for it. You can't say you didn't know later.' It's a bit like, for example, when the SEC was settling with Guo Wengui—Guo was bragging like crazy. But in reality, when Guo was arrested and went to court, trying to defend himself by saying he didn't know or wasn't aware, the SEC settlement proved he already knew, and he had no way to argue that. Is there a bit of that meaning here? Like, Xi turns around and says, 'I didn't know.' We are still very powerful in doing this. We believe what we are doing fits our values. Then Trump says, 'You wasted your time at the National Archives.'

They gave you the lesson, can't you understand it? And we are so powerful! The National Archives preserves the entire history of the country; isn't it just to let you see, you little punk? You lead the CCP, and you still want to pose the greatest existential threat we've ever faced? Did you see that? This time you came, I showed you my military power, and I showed you my archives; the point is to tell you that if you go back and don't know how to behave, then don't blame me for not holding back when the time comes!

Right? Think about it. Of course, the CCP must be thinking, 'Hmph, the U.S. is going to show me the Shanghai Communiqué, and then they're going to show me the legal documents of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Carter and Xi Jinping—wait, not Xi Jinping, but Deng Xiaoping—and you're going to show me the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.' Doesn't the CCP love to talk about the Chinese Exclusion Act? Saying, 'Look, you discriminated against the Chinese back then, and now that you speak ill of the CCP, you are discriminating, continuing to discriminate against the Chinese,' right? So, in this process of our CCP interacting with you in the U.S., you, Trump, bringing me to the archives now must be to showcase our series of achievements. Oh, I can brag about this when I get back. 'Look, the Communist Party has led the Chinese people to stand up; even the U.S. archives have our records, and they have to come and take a look at us.' Oh, Sino-U.S. friendship is long-standing; it's not up to you, Trump, to decide. No matter how this government changes, you can't do without me, the CCP. The CCP is definitely thinking from that angle, but you really need to think about it.

The third day is the final day on the U.S. side, right? In the morning, they arranged a tea reception in the Red Room for you, then took you to the National Archives, and then bid you farewell at the archives. In reality, let me tell you, what is the true meaning behind this? This Red Room is a symbol of diplomacy! Many of the diplomatic relations of this White House are showcased to everyone right here in the Red Room. This arrangement by the U.S., let me tell you, is really not what you, the CCP, think it is! On one hand, they want to teach you a lesson, and on the other, they want to show you that they can treat you with the courtesy of a state banquet. They can also meet you at the airport, just like they met Khrushchev during the Cold War. They can also take you to the National Archives, making you think the U.S. wants to rekindle past friendships with you, as if they can't bear to be apart from you for even a moment, continuing this kind of relationship. But in fact, what I want to tell you is that diplomacy is diplomacy, and etiquette is etiquette, regardless of how they welcome you. As we have said, welcoming Khrushchev didn't mean that the Cold War wouldn't eventually lead to the dissolution of your Soviet Union. Even if they have a diplomatic tea reception with you in the Red Room, it doesn't mean that the U.S. cannot change its diplomatic direction later, right? You have to know that besides teaching you what America's core values are—what constitutionalism, democracy, freedom, and independence are—the National Archives also contain other documents. For example, what kind of documents are there? They could show you the Cairo Declaration, which could tell you that it was the Republic of China led by Chiang Kai-shek that participated in World War II, not your People's Republic of China, which didn't even exist then, and it has even less to do with your Communist Party. They could also look at the 1945 Potsdam Proclamation, right? The one that accepted the surrender was not the CCP, which keeps shouting about the September 3rd military parade and the 'eighty years of resistance,' but the Republic of China. Then they could show you how the relationship between the U.S. and Taiwan developed. For instance, the 1951 San Francisco Peace Treaty is also backed up in the archives, right? We talked about this last year; the CCP has been making all sorts of excuses about this, eventually getting desperate and saying, 'historical documents are already expired.'

Trump is showing you that the ones that haven't expired are still right here! It states that Japan renounced its rights to Taiwan and the Penghu Islands, but it didn't designate them to any specific country. Hey, sovereignty is undetermined. It's not what you say, that Taiwan belongs to China. At the same time, let me tell you, look at the Taiwan Relations Act, right? There are documents for this too; it doesn't say that your 'One China' means you must unify Taiwan. Furthermore, there is that Resolution 2758 you are so obsessed with, always thinking about tampering with it to claim a permanent Chinese seat or something—that's not how it works, right? Now, President-elect Trump has also said that we should pool our efforts to properly dismantle and re-examine this Resolution 2758. We at the Lude Media have done many programs on this. The U.S. can also show you this, knowing it's a sore spot for your CCP. I'm telling you, this sore spot is indeed in the archives; it's not something you can just tamper with or interpret as you please, right? What else? Are there archives from the Korean War about how your 'Ice Sculpture Company' fought the Americans? Are there archives from the Vietnam War about how the U.S. military helped North Vietnam fight against the U.S. back then? In short, let me tell you, what is the purpose of taking Xi to the archives? What is the point of taking photos and displaying them? What is the ultimate political metaphor of the U.S.? That is not something your CCP can decide. Moreover, the home field is in the U.S., and the initiative is with Trump. Trump is basically saying, 'It's good that you came. Once you're here, we have plenty of ways to play.' Xi still thinks, 'Hmph, after I go, I will make Trump appear as if he is defeated at my feet.' Hey, in reality, let me tell you, once you go there, there will be plenty of lessons for you to learn. And whether you have actually learned these lessons or not? Well, if you calculated 3.5 plus 3.5 equals 6 when you were a child, then if you calculate this wrong, you can't say the teacher didn't teach it; it only shows that your brain isn't working well and you can't learn it. The U.S. is the same now, right? Seeing that there won't be many opportunities for you to come here for lessons later; the next lesson might be in a prisoner-of-war camp. So, they are giving you a 'final lesson' first. Whether you understand it or not depends on your fate, which depends on your IQ. Trump said only people with extremely high IQs can figure these things out, right? The implication is that, unfortunately, for those with low IQs, there's nothing I can do, right? Good, the CCP is still bragging, 'Oh, Xi is going to defend against the U.S., oh, how great, oh, is it really not embarrassing?'
