I’m pleased to report that I’m slated to return tonight to John Batchelor’s nationally syndicated radio show. Our subject:  how well or poorly China’s economy is handling a CCP Virus surge among its own population and in many countries that are major markets for its exports.

I’m not sure exactly when the segment is scheduled for tonight’s program, but John’s show is on the air week nights from 9 PM to 1 AM EST, and it’s always provocative and informative. You can listen live to our China conversation – including co-host Gordon G. Chang – at this link. And for those of you who can’t tune in, I’ll post a link to the podcast as soon as one’s available.

I’m pleased to report that the podcast is now on-line of my return last night to John Batchelor’s nationally syndicated radio show. The main subjects: (1) China trade’s real impact on the U.S. economy; (2) the increasingly bold campaign by the American Offshoring Lobby to push President Biden to cut way back unilaterally on the Trump tariffs; and (3) the completely fact-free arguments being used to justify this kind of trade cave-in.

I’m pleased to announce that the podcast is now on-line of the podcast of my latest interview on John Batchelor’s nationally syndicated radio show. The segment, which aired last night, can be found here, and focused on the Biden administration’s surprising (to me, anyway) decision to keep in place all of former President Trump’s towering and sweeping tariffs on Chinese goods.

In addition, my good friend (and incisive foreign policy analyst) Ted Galen Carpenter quoted my views on the U.S.-Japan security relationship in this recent blog post. Indeed, Ted’s piece shows that the likelihood of Tokyo helping the U.S. military meaingfully in a shooting war over Taiwan is even dimmer than I had previously written.

I’m pleased to announce that the podcast is now on-line of my latest interview on John Batchelor’s nationally syndicated radio show. Click here for a timely discussion among John, co-host Gordon G. Chang, and me on whether President Biden’s infrastructure and competitiveness package really will strengthen America’s position relative to China. Oh yes – we also speculated about the fate of former President Trump’s China tariffs in the Biden era.  

In addition, yesterday, Gordon quoted my views on the matter in a post for the Gatestone Institute. Here‘s the link.

Finally, on March 31, IndustryToday.com re-published my RealityChek post on recent U.S. manufacturing data strongly indicating that those Trump tariffs have greatly helped domestic industry weather the CCP Virus pandemic and subsequent recession in impressive shape.

I’m pleased to announce that the podcast is now on-line of my interview last night on John Batchelor’s nationally syndicated radio show on U.S. China trade policy. Click here for a timely discussion with John and co-host Gordon G. Chang on the outlook for America’s approach to the People’s Republic as the Biden administration settles into office.

One especially interesting point: Although John seemed to focus on how China fell well short of meeting its commitments under Donald Trump’s Phase One trade deal to boost its purchases of American-origin goods and services, I pointed to some data indicating that the agreement produced some important achievements on this front.

My appearance on Moe Ansari’s “Market Wrap with Moe” can be found at this site, and clicking on the play button of the “Current Market Wrap” (“Cold War with China”) episode.  The interview begins just before the 23-minute mark.

I’m pleased to announce that I’m scheduled to return tonight to John Batchelor’s nationally syndicated radio show. On the agenda for John, me, and co-host Gordon G. Chang is what happens to the China trade and tech wars if Joe Biden becomes President. Indeed, will they even be waged seriously by Washington?

As has been the case throughout the CCP Virus pandemic, John taped this segment, and it’s not clear when exactly air time will be. But you can listen live on-line to the program at this link starting at 11 PM EST, and I’ll of course post a link to the podcast as soon as one’s available.

In addition, it was great as always to be quoted on the same subject last Thursday on the Voice of America’s Chinese language network. For all you Mandarin speakers, here’s the link. Others (like me) will need to try an on-line translation program.
