Summary

As global crises unfold from Ukraine and the Middle East to Latin America and the Arctic, this episode of Nothing But the Truth examines how China is quietly shaping events behind the scenes. Host Trudy Stern is joined by Michael Sobolik of the Hudson Institute, author of Countering China’s Great Game , to break down Beijing’s strategy as a revisionist power exploiting global instability, expanding its military and economic reach, and preparing for potential conflict. The conversation also explores a new Heritage Foundation war game warning of U.S. weapons shortages in a high-intensity conflict with China—and what all of this means for America’s future.
