About this episode
Before Matt Pottinger was a reporter in China, he served as a U.S. Marine, deployed to both Iraq and Afghanistan. He then spent four years in senior roles on the White House National Security Council, including as senior director for Asia, and deputy national security advisor. Now, he’s a distinguished visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution and he’s Chairman of FDD’s China Program. And he’s the editor of a new book: “The Boiling Moat: Urgent Steps to Defend Taiwan.” He joins host Cliff May to discuss Xi Jinping’s Stalinist efforts to usher in “the Great Rejuvenation of the Chinese Nation” — and its possible consequences for Taiwan.
