The hosts mock the absurdity of the Syllabic name change used to facilitate the summit.

Authorities discovered 21 children, mostly babies and toddlers, in the couple's custody after a two-month-old was hospitalized with head trauma.

The strategy serves as the connective tissue for the CCP's "long-arm" repression activities, effectively operating as a malign influence operation within the Chinese diaspora.
