This has to do with semiconductors—computer chips. Without modern generation chips, the CCP falls generations behind the rest of the world. And without the chips, the CCP’s ambitions to build a high-tech economy will come crashing down. In other news, former President Donald Trump may face another round of criminal charges this week. A grand jury in Georgia is now expected to bring charges against him. Meanwhile, the anti-woke boycotts are coming for another company. This time it’s Skittles. The company has a partnership with the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, and caused controversy by rolling out a new package with all-gray Skittles, and the text “Black Trans Lives Matter.”

The judge ruled on this: The prosecutors didn’t get what they wanted, and President Trump may have gotten something in his favor. In other news, a special counsel has now been appointed to investigate Hunter Biden, the son of President Joe Biden. But Republicans aren’t happy with it. We’ll explain why. Also, there’s an emerging designer baby industry, and China may have a hand in using American mothers as surrogates in what looks like a eugenics program. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss these stories and others.

🇺🇸 EpochTV 25¢ Sale: https://ept.ms/JoshSale 🔴 Watch the New Special Report "The Capitol Hill Tapes" 👉 https://bit.ly/J6Tapes 🔵 Watch the full episode HERE 👉https://ept.ms/WeaponizationOfHunger_YT The U.S. State Department has been warning of attacks on the global food system. It warns that nations are working to manufacture this and that the “weaponization of hunger” needs to be stopped. Secretary of State Antony Blinken laid out the risks during a speech at the United Nations Security Council. Afterward, he took to X, formerly known as Twitter, and wrote “hunger and conflict are inextricably linked,” adding: “We must stop the weaponization of hunger, beginning with Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine and its assault on the global food system. Failure to act now will have dire consequences.” Meanwhile, last year, the director of the International Monetary Fund and the heads of several central banks met in Davos. They discussed the proposed future of currencies: Centralized Bank Digital Currencies. These are like cryptocurrencies without the privacy. They’re digital currencies where every transaction can be tracked and regulated by a central power. China already has one in place, and there’s a push for the world to follow, including at the Federal Reserve. We’ll speak about this with Thomas Hogan, senior fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research, and the former chief economist for the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, & Urban Affairs. And, while they’re not in the headlines as much, the anti-woke boycotts are ongoing. Bud Light is still in free fall, and its parent company Anheuser-Busch is selling off beer brands. Disney is feeling the heat as well. After several big flops at the box office, its next big film, “Haunted Mansion,” has now flopped as well. It looks like woke policies have their consequences. We’ll speak about this with Jeffrey A. Tucker, senior economics columnist at The Epoch Times, and the founder and president of the Brownstone Institute.

But other data suggests otherwise. Behind the shortages are global agendas, financial interests, and campaigns to remake society. In other news, special counsel Jack Smith is being asked for answers by a federal judge in Florida overseeing the classified documents case against former President Donald Trump. Mr. Smith is being accused of using a grand jury in Washington to bring charges against President Trump in different states. We speak with Julie Kelly, senior contributor to American Greatness and author of “January 6: How Democrats Used the Capitol Protest to Launch a War on Terror Against the Political Right.” Also, a far-left political party in South Africa went viral recently for chanting a song to “Kill the Boer.” The group behind the chant is a far-left Marxist political party known as the Economic Freedom Fighters. They were criticized for calling for genocide. The New York Times and other establishment media then defended the Marxists, claiming the song has other meanings. So what’s really happening? We have with us Chris van Heerden, a South African professional boxer and former IBO welterweight champion, whose father was killed in the movement against the Boers.

Watch EpochTV's new documentary here: https://ept.ms/44LOLAn Special counsel Jack Smith has a trick up his sleeve, and this could allow him to continue rolling out indictments against former President Donald Trump. Under normal circumstances, when a case moves forward and a grand jury is formed, the grand jury is made where the alleged crime happened. But not with Mr. Smith. He’s being accused of forming a grand jury in Washington, which is then bringing charges in different states. After bringing charges, it then continues to investigate President Trump, and can keep bringing charges elsewhere. In other news, Elon Musk has launched a legal operation through X, formerly known as Twitter, to defend people’s free speech on the platform. Mr. Musk is asking users to bring any cases where they’ve been punished for the content they’ve posted or liked on X. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss these stories and others, and answer questions from the audience.

Watch EpochTV's new documentary here: https://ept.ms/44LOLAn Trump’s plan to use the latest indictment as a way to expose evidence of election fraud in 2020 may be crushed by the Justice Department. While the case is still going forward, and we can assume that Trump will still use discovery and subpoenas to gain access to evidence, this information is unlikely to see the light of day. Not only that, but if Trump talks about rigged elections or Jan. 6, it’s possible he could be charged for violating a court order. They found a way to muzzle him, and it comes in the form of a protective order. Meanwhile, Chinese spies have an odd target: American seeds. Farmers in Iowa recently accused the CCP of stealing genetically modified seeds. This lets China’s communist regime bypass any expensive research and development, and undercut the United States on the global food market.

Watch EpochTV's new documentary here: https://ept.ms/44LOLAn Representative Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) has been exposing what he alleges is a censorship-by-proxy system. The federal government has been working through social media sites to censor Americans. The House Judiciary Committee has obtained documents showing this, and Mr. Jordan has been releasing these publicly under the label of “The Facebook Files.” In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss these stories and others.

🇺🇸 Flash Sale!: https://ept.ms/3pLM4jb 🔵Watch the full episode 👉 https://ept.ms/WarOnTheWest_YT Six years ago, I had the pleasure of interviewing Jordan Peterson. This was when he’d just entered the public sphere with a video criticizing political correctness. Now, at the time the interview didn’t get much traction as it was before I had “Crossroads” and before Mr. Peterson became as well known as he is now. But those ideas that we discussed—the underlying problems of postmodernism, how it relates to the communist agenda, the destruction of higher education, and the subversion of the values of the West—have only become more relevant now as society becomes more divided. So I’ve decided to re-release the interview, I hope you all enjoy!

🇺🇸 Flash Sale!: https://ept.ms/3pLM4jb 🔵 Watch the full episode HERE 👉https://ept.ms/EqualJustice_YT There have been conflicting reports on whether Republicans will try to impeach President Joe Biden. It comes down to a small difference in language that means a lot more in practice. The difference is between an impeachment and an impeachment inquiry. And at the same time, Trump just got hit with even more charges. This time, it’s process crimes. More process crimes. And these are related to the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago. So, is there equal application of the law?

🇺🇸 Flash Sale!: https://ept.ms/3pLM4jb 🔵Watch the full episode 👉 https://ept.ms/NotWoke_YT The “Barbie” movie has won big at the box office, with $200 million and counting. Conservatives have largely criticized it. Many others have praised it. The film has sparked a national discussion on feminism, the “patriarchy,” and gender politics overall. Meanwhile, House Republicans are now suggesting the investigations into the Biden family have reached a level where impeachment may be on the table, yet the real reason may go deeper. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll talk about these stories and others.

🇺🇸 Flash Sale!: https://ept.ms/3pLM4jb 🔵Watch the full episode 👉 https://ept.ms/CocaineSharks_YT News about shark attacks and related topics has been increasing. In New York, a recent series of attacks have led to the creation of shark patrols. Lifeguards are being trained to use drones and other tools to help in the efforts. Scientists have been hard at work studying what is making the sharks become so aggressive. And there’s now a discussion around the possible answer: drugs. Hard drugs—causing what has been termed “cocaine sharks.” But there’s more to the story. It’s not just hard drugs possibly impacting the sharks. It may tie into a much broader problem of wastewater, and all the chemical drugs that people consume. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this story, and others.

🇺🇸 Flash Sale!: https://ept.ms/3pLM4jb 🔵Watch the full episode 👉 https://ept.ms/SmallTownAmerica_YT While companies like Disney have been struggling as they reel from public ridicule, country music star Jason Aldean has gone the other way. Country Music Television has canceled him; the media establishment has painted him with controversy; and it looks like all the powers that be oppose him. But despite all this, his new song has soared to the top of the charts, and the public has rallied behind him. In this episode of “Crossroads,” we’ll discuss this story and others.

Kennedy Jr. says there is a campaign to censor and malign him, ironically from his own party. The 2024 candidate has been the target of hit pieces. His campaign is being censored by Big Tech. And when he was invited to testify before Congress about this censorship, House Democrats tried censoring his testimony about being censored. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss what’s really going on, and we’ll look into whether the accusations against him can hold up.

🇺🇸 Flash Sale!: https://ept.ms/3pLM4jb 🔵Watch the full episode 👉 https://ept.ms/16FakeElectors_YT A group of 16 dueling electors in the 2020 elections are now facing criminal charges in Michigan. In the midst of all the controversy of that election, seven states sent dueling electors to cast electoral college votes, in opposition to the ones sent by the state. This was in line with legal precedence. The dueling electors legally could have been taken as the legitimate votes, and state actions to stop them from casting their votes could have instead been deemed illegal. But the actions of these electors are now being deemed a crime. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this story and others.

He said he was alerted Sunday night that “I am a Target of the January 6th Grand Jury investigation.” He has been given four days to report to the grand jury, and noted this “almost always means an Arrest and Indictment.” In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this story and others.

🇺🇸 Flash Sale!: https://ept.ms/3pLM4jb 🔵Watch the full episode 👉 https://ept.ms/TabooQuestions_YT Public discussion is no longer organic. There is now a system that decides which stories can be reported by news outlets, which topics politicians are willing to comment on, and which topics should be deemed untouchable. We now have no-go topics. The environment of “acceptable speech,” contrasted with the topics nobody dares to touch, frames the “public discussion.” It was in this context that former Fox News host Tucker Carlson interviewed the leading 2024 candidates for the Republican Party, with the exception of former President Donald Trump. The videos went viral on Twitter. News outlets were plastered with either praise or hit pieces, while some just ignored it altogether, because what Carlson had done was ask many of the questions you’re just not supposed to ask. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this topic and others.

🔵 Watch the full episode 👉https://ept.ms/DrinkTheSewage_YT California’s State Water Resources Control Board announced a new program referred to by critics as “toilet-to-tap.” And the board is now considering adopting the program before the end of the year. According to a release, the program “would allow for water systems to add wastewater that has been treated to levels meeting or exceeding all drinking water standards to their potable supplies.” They call it “direct potable reuse.” They say it gives a “climate-resilient” water supply. They also note it will help with “reducing the amount of wastewater they release to rivers and the ocean”—since you’ll be drinking it instead. In fact, the release says it can turn that sewage into drinking water “in a matter of hours.” In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this topic and others.

🔵 Watch the full episode 👉https://ept.ms/CCPHatesThis_YT Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.) read the story of The Epoch Times into congressional record. He told the story of our founder and CEO, John Tang. He told the story of the quiet battle we’ve endured as the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has arrested our reporters, threatened our advertisers, and done everything in its power to destroy us. And he told the story of how despite our challenges, we’ve managed to build a global news outlet that currently holds the fourth-largest newspaper subscription in all the United States. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this and other topics.

🔵 Watch the full episode 👉https://ept.ms/Silenced_YT There is a war on truth being waged in the United States, and by international powers. New systems are being established that could soon determine what can be discussed and what cannot be discussed. In the United States, it turns out government agencies have been involved in a campaign of censorship by proxy, and a judge has momentarily put a stop to this. Abroad, the European Union is paying visits to American social media companies to coerce them into censoring their users, in accordance with foreign laws. And even beyond these battles over truth and who defines truth, there is a looming system that could soon create standards for global censorship. We discussed before that the United States is backing the so-called pandemic treaty. This would give the World Health Organization (WHO), through the United Nations, the unilateral power to declare public health emergencies and recommend policies. This would be a legally binding agreement of all member states. And members are expected to sign on sometime next year. But the “pandemic treaty” isn’t just about recommending policies on viruses or emerging diseases. It includes every element of public health. It is being extended to issues like wealth inequality, race politics, and even issues like climate change. And packaged inside as well are systems that would allow the WHO to recommend legally binding guidelines to stop what it describes as “misinformation.” In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this and other topics.

🔵 Watch the full episode 👉https://ept.ms/WeLiveYouDie_YT Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen just wrapped up a four-day visit to Beijing. She met with her Chinese counterparts. She sparked controversy for repeatedly bowing to Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng. And when she left, Ms. Yellen declared that the meetings were productive, although they didn’t result in any breakthroughs on policy. So what’s this really about? Why did Ms. Yellen declare it a success? China and the United States appear to be “re-establishing contact,” while the Chinese Communist Party smells blood in the water. Tensions between the two countries appear to be rapidly growing, as diplomacy appears to be falling apart. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this story and others, and answer questions from the audience.

(Offer valid until 7/9)👉 https://ept.ms/3CYz9NG The French leadership under Emmanuel Macron used the recent riots to usher in new policies of mass government surveillance. News headlines in France have said that every phone in the country can now be used as a spying device by police. But this actually goes further—the measures include computers and other devices as well. France is now grappling with difficult laws to regulate difficult powers. But in reality, what it’s facing is a question that most of the world may soon have to face: the surveillance systems already exist. They exist wherever these devices exist. The data is already being collected. This holds true just as much in France as it does all through Europe, and all throughout the United States. It’s mainly held by private businesses right now. It’s sold to advertisers and big data networks. But that could change … In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss this topic and others.

And this social conditioning could make it easier when forcing the public to comply during the next pandemic—at least, that’s what officials in the United Kingdom are saying. Professor David Halpern is the chief executive of the Behavioral Insights Team, also known as the “Nudge Unit.” The organization is based in the UK and works with governments on social engineering, psychology, and tactics to get citizens to comply with policies. And as The New York Times now reports, a new health crisis is already upon us. And luckily we already have a response to it. A way to stop it in its tracks. And that is, a new vaccine. It states, “To prevent a repeat of last winter’s “tripledemic” of respiratory illnesses, Americans will be encouraged to roll up their sleeves not just for flu shots but for two other vaccines, one of them entirely new.” It notes that U.S. federal health officials are now encouraging three shots: the flu shot, the COVID shot, and the RSV shot. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss these stories and others.

Both Ukraine and Russia are accusing the other side of planning an attack, which could result in a nuclear catastrophe similar to the 1986 disaster at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant also in Ukraine. In other news, the U.S. government can no longer collude with Big Tech to censor Americans—at least not for now. A federal judge granted a partial injunction blocking the U.S. government from working with social media companies to censor users. The case is not over yet, but it could result in a landmark decision on the nature of government censorship. In this episode of Crossroads, we’ll discuss these stories and others.

We’ll discuss this story and others in this episode of Crossroads.
