American Thought Leaders - The Epoch Times

“Their goal is to really eradicate Christian faith, from the map of China.” Bob Fu says the Chinese Communist Party is actively trying to eliminate Christianity in China. But he believes history shows they will fail. “But we all know they will fail and fail miserably because historically, how many Caesars in Roman Empire tried but failed miserably?” “And even in the history of People’s Republic of China, multiple political leaders have tried, but again, failed miserably.” “And even the revival of the church has happened instead of demise or destruction of the church.” The attack on Christians by the CCP is something many people do not realize is happening. Peaceful Christians are being arrested or worse simply because of their faith. Bob Fu breaks this down in the interview below 👇 https://ept.ms/3OWKiYH

“Xi Jinping wants to play God. The Communist Party treats [Christians] as a threat to the regime's existence. The goal is to eradicate Christian faith from the map of China,” says Pastor Bob Fu. And Western-built technology may be helping the CCP in this endeavor. 🔴 PREMIERE 5PM ET on @EpochTV: https://ept.ms/3OWKiYH

Zineb Riboua warns that China’s rise to global dominance runs straight through Iran. She says Operation Epic Fury is now disrupting that strategy. “I would say that China cannot rise without having the United States weakened in one of the most important regions in the world, being the Middle East.” “Iran has been that tool.” “China has built Iran’s military arsenal.” “It has collaborated extensively with its proxies, especially the Houthis who are doing this blockade in the Red Sea.” “And reversing that calculus is what Operation Epic Fury is doing.” “And I think that this is absolutely crucial when watching the next events unfolding.” https://rumble.com/v76qugk-how-operation-epic-fury-has-disrupted-the-ccps-strategy-in-the-middle-east-.html

Many Americans are concerned that war with Iran could spiral into another forever war that distracts from adversaries like China. Zineb Riboua says the U.S. is taking steps to make sure that doesn’t happen. “The United States is destroying everything that would make that possible.” “Every single launcher, every single missile facility, their whole navy has been absolutely crushed.” “I was doing a brief assessment this morning… you can see that it’s about 2,000 targets so far, and they’re hitting even more.” “They’re absolutely in the business of making sure that even if the next Iran wants to, it just cannot.” “The military aspect… is that they are structurally going to be incapable of launching things in the future.” Many Americans are uneasy with what’s occurring in Iran currently. Zineb Riboua sat down with me for a short interview breaking down why she doesn’t hold this view: https://ept.ms/4bqDsTX

The recent conflict in the Middle East is widely seen as the United States and Israel versus Iran. But according to Zineb Riboua, the picture may be much bigger. Given the CCP’s deep role in building Iran’s military and surveillance infrastructure, it can also be viewed as a proxy confrontation between the United States and China. “China’s fingerprints are all over Iran’s military arsenal.” “When it comes to the missiles… The Chinese have been helping Iran get a lot of the chemical components that are very crucial for that arsenal.” “Iran does not really have the domestic capacity to produce those chemicals… so the Chinese really just stepped in and helped.” “I’ve been looking at the Chinese eagerness to export its surveillance model, its technology model.” “China has helped Iran’s whole telecommunications architecture.” “They reshaped it exactly as they would do in Beijing.” “Iran was able to use Chinese technology… so they could track very easily who wears a hijab or not… because they perfected it in Uyghur camps.” https://rumble.com/v76oxjq-why-the-iran-war-is-all-about-china-zineb-riboua.html

“The US went to war in Iran because Iran made itself a Chinese weapon,” policy analyst Zineb Riboua told us during our interview. According to her, the current war against Iran is “all about China.” In fact, she believes the U.S. is waging an indirect war with China right now. Riboua is the founder of the China in MENA Project which tracks Chinese influence and expansion across the Middle East and Africa. Is there a bigger dimension to this war that many are missing? “We have this tendency to just look at the countries involved… but there's a big player, and the big player here is China… China has been investing immensely in the region in the last two decades, ” And why has China been so keen on gaining strategic influence over the Middle East? It’s because the CCP understands, she said, that “China cannot rise without having the United States weakened in one of the most important regions in the world... Iran has been that tool.” 🔴https://ept.ms/4bqDsTX

U.S. regime change wars in Afghanistan and Iraq failed miserably. So I asked Gordon Chang: “What makes Iran different?” This was his response: “We’ve had [successful] regime change operations like Germany and Japan.” “I think the reason why Afghanistan and Iraq didn’t go well is because you didn’t have the secure environment in which business could come in and transform society.” “Iran is not Iraq.” “Iran has a tradition.” “That tradition was interrupted for 47 years by the theocratic regime, but the Iranian people will get this right.” “And we saw how many people in Iran wanted to be free.” https://rumble.com/v76imcm-gordon-chang-heres-why-iran-will-be-different-from-afghanistan-and-iraq.html Gordon Chang just broke down why President Trump’s decision to conduct massive strikes on Iran has much broader geopolitical implications than you think. Watch our full interview below to find out why: https://youtu.be/e-3cRrquknc

80% of Iranians oppose the theocratic regime. At the same time, U.S. support for regime-change wars is at an all-time low. I asked Gordon Chang to break down what this means for President Trump’s strikes in Iran: “That’s of course true.” “It’s true not only among Democrats, but also among Republicans.” “President Trump ran on … no more foreign wars.” “But there are times when presidents have to do what is absolutely necessary to protect the American public.” “President Trump decided, no, we were not going to allow these threats to gather.” “He’s ensuring peace in the long term because among other things, he has started a chain of events that probably will lead to the end of the Iranian regime.” “We, Americans, don’t understand that we are in an existential struggle with the Communist Party.” Iran is one of the CCP’s biggest allies. https://rumble.com/v76icju-regime-change-in-iran-gordon-chang-weighs-in..html Gordon Chang declared that America is in an “existential struggle” with the Chinese Communist Party. And he told me that the U.S.-Israel strikes on Iran are crushing China’s ambitions of power. Watch our full interview to find out why: https://youtu.be/e-3cRrquknc

“We haven’t allowed ourselves to understand the lengths to which the Chinese Communist Party will go to maintain and project power … ” The CCP’s forced organ harvesting industry reveals that its leaders are not just power-hungry. The CCP’s ideology is defined by true evil. Gordon Chang told me that Americans have “shied away from the accusations of organ harvesting because they were just too grotesque.” “American society has, for a number of reasons … shied away from this notion that there is evil.” “But organ harvesting, which you document in your book, is evil.” “One of the [reasons] why Ronald Reagan prevailed was because he was willing to say in public that the Soviet Union was the evil empire.” Now, Chang says, American leaders must face reality and make the same kind of declaration about the Chinese Communist Party.

“Venezuela supplies maybe 3-4% of China’s imported oil.” “But Iran was somewhere between 15-23%.” Gordon Chang told me that President Trump is “going after the Chinese” with his war in Iran. “He is doing it indirectly.” “He’s cutting off their sources of oil.” “President Trump may allow the Venezuelans to sell oil to China, but not at the heavily discounted rates that China was benefiting from.” “And Chinese factories are now dependent on cheap oil.” “Well, they’re not getting it anymore.” “If they get their oil, they’re gonna have to pay market prices.” https://rumble.com/v76hf4o-trump-is-cutting-of-the-ccps-sources-of-oil-gordon-chang.html Gordon Chang just sat down with me for a 50-minute interview to break down how President Trump is delivering a massive blow to the Chinese Communist Party with his strikes in Iran.

I broke down to @RobSchneider why my new book about the horrific organ harvesting business in China is named “Killed to Order”: Because you have so many people in the prison and labor camp system—millions of Falun Gong practitioners and other prisoners of conscience—now you can pre-blood type, tissue type, and organ scan them. You have in a database all the vitals of some huge number of people who have been dehumanized and treated as disposable. Then when someone, an American let’s say, wants to come and pay a hefty sum, that prisoner of conscience on the other side is already pre-matched to them and is ready to be killed to order. And that’s why the name of my book is Killed to Order. https://rumble.com/v76hb2e-the-organ-harvesting-system-in-china-is-horrifying-and-its-still-happening-.html The organ harvesting system in China is horrifying, and it’s still happening now. Join @RobSchneider and me at Trump Kennedy Center on March 16 as we break down my new book “Killed to Order” and reveal the truth behind this crime against humanity.

“I believe that President Trump is going after the Chinese…he's cutting off their sources of support.” The US-Israel strikes on Iran are reshaping the global balance of power—and Beijing is feeling the heat,” says China analyst Gordon Chang. “Mao [Zedong] boasted that he won the Chinese Civil War because he encircled the cities from the countryside…Well, Trump has just taken that same policy and applied it against China. …Venezuela and Iran are the countryside, and China is the city." 🔴 WATCH NOW: https://youtu.be/e-3cRrquknc

“The requirement of somebody’s death for your survival, is the most perverse thing I’ve ever heard in medicine.” Rob Schneider says we need to make clear to Western society that organ harvesting is never acceptable. “It should at least be known throughout the West that this cannot be recommended.” “This is something that is not an option.” MARCH 16 at the Trump Kennedy Center, @RobSchneider and I will dive deep into the horrors of CCP organ harvesting and my upcoming book “Killed to Order.” Don’t miss this important conversation. Register here 👇 https://www.kennedy-center.org/whats-on/millennium-stage/2026/march/jan-jekielek-rob-schneider The stories I tell in this book are disturbing, but we cannot afford to look away.

In America and other free countries, patients wait months or even years for an organ. But in China, transplant wait lists are measured in weeks—or even days. For twenty years, I’ve investigated a crime almost too horrific to name—now documented in my new book: “Killed To Order: China's Organ Harvesting Industry and the True Nature of America's Biggest Adversary.” This is the dark reality: When someone decides to go to China and pay a hefty sum for a scheduled transplant, on the other side, an incarcerated prisoner of conscience, who has already been blood-typed and tissue-typed, is likely being killed to order. In this episode, the tables are turned, and I’m in the guest seat this time. I invited my good friend, actor, and comedian Rob Schneider, who has become deeply personally invested in this issue, to be the guest host for this special episode. 🔴 PREMIERE 5PM ET on @EpochTV: https://ept.ms/40CR5Ju

Dr. Daniel Monti is a pioneer in integrative medicine. And he just told me that MAHA’s new food pyramid is a breakthrough that will “increase health and prolong life.” “All of the ultra-processed foods that are so common and easy to obtain really put things in the wrong direction.” “All of the evidence out there continuously points to a dietary pattern that is going to increase health and prolong life, or one that’s gonna take things in the opposite direction.” I just sat down with Dr. Daniel Monti for a 50-minute interview about his groundbreaking work as an integrative medicine physician. He just made a potentially massive breakthrough in Parkinson’s disease treatment. Watch this fascinating interview below: https://ept.ms/4b9Glsa

Dr. Daniel Monti just revealed a potentially massive breakthrough in Parkinson’s disease treatment. And it’s much simpler than you think. He just published his third study on a molecule called N-acetylcysteine, or “NAC for short.” “This is a powerful antioxidant.” “It actually protects the liver.” “We know that it does a lot of different things, but the important thing for us is that it’s a precursor to something called glutathione.” “Glutathione protects the brain when there’s damage or oxidative stress and we lose it as we age.” “And when we get sick, we lose it even more.” “So we want to have a way to efficiently increase glutathione in the brain, particularly when we have a neurodegenerative disorder such as Parkinson’s disease.” “We hypothesized early on that giving infused N-acetylcysteine would increase glutathione and actually have a positive impact on Parkinson’s disease.” “We’ve published three studies on this and we look at brain scans in all of them.” “And what we’ve seen is that the N-acetylcysteine increases the efficiency of dopamine in the brain, which is the neurotransmitter or chemical that gets lost in Parkinson’s disease and causes all of those symptoms.” “Our most recent study shows that it improves the way the brain connects to itself or talks to itself the functional connectivity in the brain.” “To be in the study, you couldn’t have changes in your Parkinson's medications for a period of time.” “In both the control group and in the NAC group, people were on their Parkinson’s medications, but if they got the NAC, they did better.” “Their brain came alive in a way that wasn’t happening before.” https://rumble.com/v76bwxc-a-potentially-massive-breakthrough-in-parkinsons-disease-treatment..html

What happens in your brain when you get rid of stress? A powerful integrative medicine method called the neuro-emotional technique can be used to release emotional stress in the body. And through advanced brain scans, we can actually see the difference this makes in the brain, says Dr. Daniel Monti, chair of Thomas Jefferson University’s department of integrative medicine. During the interview, Dr. Monti used the opportunity to demonstrate the neuro-emotional technique on Jan himself! 🔴 PREMIERE 9PM ET on @EpochTV: https://ept.ms/4b9Glsa

“We need to wake up.” Investigative journalist Peter Schweizer argues progressive activists “weaponized” mass migration to reshape America. “They’re quite explicit about it.” “Mass immigration… is a way to kind of remake society in the vision that they want—not where America is today, or not where even the American people want to go.” These activists treat immigrants like a tool of “political weaponization,” he says. “My parents immigrated from Europe. I think it’s a wonderful, beautiful thing.” “But we have to understand what’s going on and deal with this weaponization first, and then we can have the broader conversation about the level of legal immigration that we want.” @peterschweizer, author of the NYTimes bestseller “The Invisible Coup” https://rumble.com/v769dxk-peter-schweizer-argues-progressive-activists-weaponized-mass-migration-to-r.html

Grace Jin Drexel’s father has been detained in China for months just for preaching the Christian faith. She and the rest of her family live in America—but they are being actively targeted and harassed by the CCP. “Even in Washington, D.C., I felt that I’ve been watched and followed.” Her mother has been harassed in phone calls, where people impersonated federal agents, “claiming that she had committed fraud, and she has to go back to China to clear her name.” “That’s a very common tactic to force people to voluntarily go back to China.” “Most recently, my mom’s tires were slashed inside her garage.” “But nothing else was taken, so it really is a fear tactic.” “My husband has been targeted as well with a lot of phishing expeditions and cyber attacks.” “So we now live in a house surrounded by security cameras, and my husband sleeps with a metal bat next to his bedside.” https://rumble.com/v766qt8-my-moms-tires-were-slashed-how-the-ccp-is-targeting-pastor-ezra-jins-family.html

Grace Jin Drexel reveals that the CCP’s “atheist agenda” controls everything that Christian churches do in China. The CCP’s total control over Christian churches is ominously “symbolized with portraits of Xi Jinping and Mao Zedong in front of church buildings.” “The First Commandment is, ‘Thou shall have no other gods before me.’” “Yet the [CCP] wants to supplant that and say, ‘You can worship as long as you kneel down before me first.” She revealed that the CCP requires almost every action a church takes to be approved by the Party: “Your leadership has to be approved… your sermons have to be approved.” https://rumble.com/v7662xm-the-ccps-war-on-faith-grace-jin-drexel.html
