China’s property developers are imploding. This matters because property is 1/3 of China’s economy — bigger than exports. And housing makes up 3/4 of Chinese family savings. In the 2018 trade war Chinese property soaked up the slack. This time it’s making it worse.

China’s Export Boom Is Actually a Giant Warning Sign. China’s exports surged more than 21% in the first two months of 2026, and many headlines claim this is proof that the Chinese economy is recovering. But the real story is the opposite. In this video, I explain why China’s export boom is actually a warning sign of deeper economic problems—weak domestic demand, falling wages, excess industrial capacity, and growing trade tensions with the rest of the world. What looks like strength on paper actually reveals serious structural weaknesses inside China’s economy.

UPDATE: 🇺🇸🇨🇳 The American economy loses between $400 to $600 billion every year due to China’s intellectual property theft. In January of this year, a Google engineer was convicted of stealing artificial intelligence secrets for the Chinese government. It has been described as the largest transfer of wealth in human history, and it should be stopped.

China’s Property Crisis Is Far From Over — Even Vanke Is Crumbling. China’s property crisis is far from over — and the latest victim is Vanke, once considered the safest developer in the country. In this video, I break down how Vanke just lost 16 billion yuan in one quarter, why even state support from Shenzhen Metro can’t save it, and how this meltdown exposes the truth: China’s housing “recovery” is pure fiction. From collapsing sales to CEO detentions, from Evergrande’s chaos to Vanke’s slow death — this is the story of how Beijing’s “model student” became the symbol of a system in freefall.

American says she can no longer afford her home When she bought the home the payments were manageable. Just 3 years later, she’s being forced to sell her home Property taxes increased, then her homeowners insurance increased to match the new value of her home In just 3 years her monthly payment went up $3,500 PER MONTH because of property taxes and homeowners insurance This is a scam This is extremely common and how so many Americans are losing their homes. Inflated property values bring massive property tax increases and then their homeowners insurance increases to match it It’s insanity

120+ villagers in NE China’s Jilin Prov. who escaped the threat of floods made more than 10,000 dumplings for Chinese armed police officers & soldiers Tuesday. This is Chinese people’s love for our soldiers. It truly shows that soldiers and civilians are of one family in China.

China’s Fertility Rate Just Fell Off a Cliff — Here’s the REAL Cause of China's Childless Movement. Fertility rate in China's major cities is collapsing to a level lower than Japan or South Korea, and it’s not because young people “don’t want kids.” It’s because the Chinese system fires workers at 35, destroys stability, and makes family life impossible. This is China’s new childless movement, born not from rebellion, but from survival.

🇺🇸🇨🇳Trump met Xi Jinping and immediately cut tariffs and paused the trade war after bellicose rhetoric all year. Why? In September, China’s exports grew by 8.3%, the fastest pace in months. Shipments to the US fell by 27%. Exports to the EU rose more than 14%, exports to ASEAN nations were up by almost 16%, and exports to Africa rose by 56%. Direct shipments to the US now make up barely 10% of China’s total exports. While the US economy chugs along with black smoke rising from the engine, China’s economy goes on unhindered. The threat of protectionist measures on China’s rare earth minerals and metals made the US quickly come back down to reality. The world doesn’t need the US as much as it did during the height of the unipolar moment. China doesn’t depend on the US economy as much either. The world is irreversibly changing, despite the US’ hyper-militarism and war on multipolar, at a certain point, reality had to be acknowledged…which is exactly what happened at the Trump-Xi meeting. Chinese patience beats US bluster.

This family in Black Mountain had over 1,000 yards of debris wash up on their property and completely transform it. Unfortunately they lost their house and have no help from FEMA. I came in and cleaned up the property. Currently working on the other side of the house now! #DisasterRelief #HurricaneHelene #WNC #SeventeenSeventySix

Beijing’s in panic mode as tariffs threaten over-leveraged Chinese banks and massively over-built Chinese factories. China’s already drowning in debt. If the trade war keeps going they’ll have to start pawning the family jewels.

#JusticeForTaylorFamily is trending because Babajide Sanwo-Olu illegally seized a ₦9bn property, and used it as BRT car park. Despite high court orders. The property has belonged to the E.J.A. Taylor family, undisturbed since 1912, Until 2016 when some thugs tried to posses it. The family involved the Omo-Nile task force set up by fmr governor Ambode, they came and sealed the property pending investigations. After the Omo-Nile confirmed that indeed the property belonged to the Taylor’s. The Ambode task force still locked up the property from 2016, up till 2018. The family took it to the court on December 30th 2018. In 2019, the court also confirmed that the property belonged to the Taylor’s and asked the LASG task force to return the property, even though they decided they won’t pay any compensation. The Taylor’s agreed. Then, Babajide Sanwo-Olu came into office, ignored the court judgement, went a head to sign a notice of revocation in May 2020, they pasted it August, and in 2022 LASG forcefully took over the property. Since then, no compensation has been paid. The family hinted that, during ambode’s time, he tried pay them 5bn for the property. But the family were even ready to accept 3bn, but it didn’t go through. Now the family feels the Lagos state governor has cheated them and disobeyed the court of law. They are simply calling on LASG to obey the court or pay them compensation. Full video:

China’s $1 TRILLION capital flight panic Is getting Worse and the CCP is locking the exit doors because it is terrified of Chinese people buying US stocks. In this video, I break down Beijing’s massive crackdown on offshore brokerages like Futu, Tiger Brokers, and Longbridge, and explain why this is really about capital flight, collapsing domestic confidence, and tightening state control over ordinary Chinese households. From trillion-dollar capital outflows and collapsing property markets to financial surveillance, CRS 2.0, and the growing restrictions on overseas investing, this is the story of how the CCP is gradually closing the financial exits. Because in modern China, your money may legally belong to you. But your freedom to move it increasingly does not.

BREAKING: John Bolton just gave the best explanation of how ignorant Trump’s Tariffs are, that I have heard yet. “Instead of taking on the country that has stole our intellectual property for decades, by gathering our allies together, all of whom also suffer from China’s intellectual property theft, and engaging in concerted action, we are at war with our largest trading partners and are about to goto war with China as well… This is illiteracy.”
