Chinese state media offers a rare inside look at the crackdown on scam operations that have entrapped thousands of Chinese nationals and others
“Should I feel anything?” asks the beady-eyed man, sitting in a padded cell with handcuffs around his wrists.
He’s being grilled by Chinese investigators about the time he allegedly ordered a stranger to be killed – a human offering to celebrate his sworn brotherhood with a business partner.
“Wasn’t he a living, breathing person?” an investigator asks.
“I didn’t feel much,” the man maintains.
The scene may sound like it came straight out of a crime drama. In fact, it is part of a documentary on Chinese state media – a look inside the workings of the justice system almost unheard of in a country where court proceedings are largely kept out of the public eye.
The handcuffed man answering questions is Chen Dawei, a member of the infamous Wei family, one of several powerful mafia groups that for years operated with impunity in Myanmar’s border town of Laukkaing.
His confession forms just one part of a months-long propaganda push by Chinese officials. It both warns Chinese people of South East Asia’s billion-dollar scam industry, and highlights the Chinese government’s crackdown on the men behind an industry which has trapped thousands, and stolen billions.
The message China wants to send, as one investigator puts it, is clear: “It’s to warn other people, no matter who you are, where you are, as long as you commit such heinous crimes against Chinese people, you will pay the price.”

Fox News is reporting that three grand jury subpoenas were issued today for John Brennan, Peter Strzok and Lisa Page.
Brennan was the former CIA Director during Russiagate, who created the fraudulent Intelligence Community Assessment. Strzok was the lead FBI counterintelligence agent in charge of Crossfire Hurricane, and Page was the former DOJ lawyer assigned to FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe. Strzok and Page worked both the Clinton email investigation and the Trump-Russia investigation.
Fox News also reports that up to 30 grand jury subpoenas are anticipated to be served on former government officials involved in “Spygate” and/or “Russiagate.” [SEE FOX REPORT HERE]
There has been a tremendous amount of external pressure being applied, and thankfully this year a significant amount of key internal pressure has joined that effort. For the issues surrounding former CIA Director John Brennan, Fox News is citing a declassified “Annex A” of the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) which highlights John Brennan including the Steele Dossier in the ICA at the request of former FBI Director James Comey.
The outcome of a grand jury subpoena means the primary Russiagate officials will have to lawyer up, spend money and go plead the 5th amendment, the most likely outcome.
From my frame of reference, the evidence against the targets clearly exists and does not need them to make any admissions or denials. However, putting them on record in court individually, possibly compelled to testify or invoke the 5th, would perhaps narrow down their options if they were eventually indicted and face a criminal trial.
A Chinese court has sentenced five top members of an infamous Myanmar mafia to death as Beijing continues its crackdown on scam operations in South East Asia.
In all 21 Bai family members and associates were convicted of fraud, homicide, injury and other crimes, said a state media report published on the court website.
The family is among a handful of mafias that rose to power in the 2000s and transformed the impoverished backwater town of Laukkaing into a lucrative hub of casinos and red-light districts.
In recent years they pivoted to scams in which thousands of trafficked workers, many of them Chinese, are trapped, abused and forced to defraud others in criminal operations worth billions.
Mafia boss Bai Suocheng and his son Bai Yingcang were among the five men sentenced to death by the Shenzhen Intermediate People’s Court. Yang Liqiang, Hu Xiaojiang and Chen Guangyi were the other three.
Two members of the Bai family mafia were handed suspended death sentences. Five were sentenced to life imprisonment, while nine others were handed jail sentences ranging from three to 20 years.
The Bais, who controlled their own militia, established 41 compounds to house their cyberscam activities and casinos, authorities said.
Owens has done some of the best reporting and analysis of Kirk’s assassination. She has inside information, a wide range of crowd-sourced information, and a very personal animus driving her forward. She also happens to have exceptional rhetorical talent and is thus able to weave an ongoing narrative clearly, with gravitas and scathing humor. ABN
Basic anthropology — tribal beliefs and behaviors migrate along with the tribes. Not difficult to discuss at all unless your tribe (Europeans) have been mind-controlled into not seeing the painfully obvious, which they have been. I highly respect the young speaker above, as saying what she is saying actually takes courage in Europe today. ABN
President Trump is planning to send US troops to Mexico in the latest escalation against drug cartels.
The mission is in early stages but plans would include ground operations inside Mexico and drone strikes on drug labs and cartel leaders, four sources familiar with the effort told NBC News.
If green-lit, the plan would exponentially expand on the administration’s ongoing military campaign against drug cartels, which have so far focused on Venezuela and Colombia with drone strikes against suspected drug cartel vessels in the Caribbean and Atlantic.
Past US administrations have quietly deployed military, law enforcement and intelligence forces to support Mexican police and army units fighting drug cartels.
But current plans would be stronger and would see the US taking direct action against them – maybe even without Mexican cooperation.
CHARLIE KIRK UPDATE: The 2 mysterious Egyptian planes shadowing Charlie Kirk & TPUSA events over the last 2 years, including the day of the assassination—as reported by @RealCandaceO yesterday—consistently fly in & out of Cairo, Egypt. Here’s why that might be more interesting than you realize:
Just 37 miles away from Cairo is Inshas Airbase, the home & primary training center for the El Sa’ka Forces, or “Thunderbolts”—Egypt’s elite special operations unit patterned after the US Army Rangers, and trained by the US Delta Force, US Navy SEALS & British SAS.
The unit, established in 1953, focuses on airborne insertions, raids & unconventional warfare. Is this some of that foreign involvement Kash Patel doesn’t want being investigated?
If you have any information on these flights, from anywhere in the world, please send your tips to Candace Owens (or me). Thank you. Everyone else, please comment & retweet this for maximum reach.
