China’s restructuring of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) represents more than just a military reorganization—it’s a bold statement of Beijing’s ambitions to challenge American interests and reshape the global balance of power.
For decades, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has viewed the United States as the primary obstacle to its goal of national rejuvenation, which includes the forced unification of Taiwan and the expansion of authoritarian influence worldwide. The PLA’s modernization is not only a direct threat to America’s allies in the Indo-Pacific—most notably Taiwan—but also a calculated strategy to undermine democracy and freedom on a global scale.

Xi Jinping’s vision of the “great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation” hinges on building a modern, capable military to safeguard China’s development, territorial integrity, and the survival of the Communist Party (CCP). Drawing lessons from historical humiliations, such as imperial decline and Japanese occupation, Xi underscores military strength as essential to national security. Since taking power, he has prioritized modernizing the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) by overhauling command structures, updating training, and strengthening civil-military technological cooperation.
Central to this modernization is Beijing’s goal of “full reunification,” with Taiwan seen as essential to China’s sovereignty and stability. The CCP views Taiwan’s independence as a threat, dismisses its democratic elections as illegitimate, and justifies the use of force through the 2005 Anti-Secession Law if peaceful reunification fails. To achieve this, the PRC is building a world-class military capable of asserting control over Taiwan and countering external challenges.
The restructuring of the PLA is central to Xi Jinping’s vision of transforming China’s military into a world-class force by mid-century. This strategy, outlined at the 19th Party Congress in 2017, establishes clear milestones: achieving mechanization and technological advancements by 2020, completing national defense modernization by 2035, and building a globally dominant military by 2049. The 2027 modernization milestone focuses on integrating mechanization, informatization, and intelligentization, enhancing the PLA’s capacity to support the forced annexation of Taiwan. […]

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
