These are the third and fourth such actions in three days, following suits against TP-Link and Anzu Robotics earlier in the week. Paxton accused both companies of acting in the interests of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), primarily through deceptive practices and risks to consumer data and security.
In a trend reflecting the deeper struggles of China's young generation, AI pets have surged in popularity, offering affordable, low-maintenance companionship amid economic hardships and emotional isolation. Experts warn that while these virtual companions fill a void, they cannot replace real pets and may serve as tools in the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) expansive surveillance network.
Court documents have revealed explosive WeChat messages allegedly showing a Chinese Public Security Bureau (PSB) official directing Chinese nationals in Australia to infiltrate and gather intelligence on a local Buddhist organization, Guan Yin Citta, which is banned in China.
Recent reports from various Chinese provinces indicate that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is further tightening border controls on retired officials, expanding restrictions from bureau-level cadres to include division-level and even section-level personnel in key departments.

The CCP is using national power for unrestricted warfare against America. America is clearly underprepared. That is why I made this episode today. I hope more people pay attention to this issue, push America to fix regulatory gaps quickly, and find stronger ways to counter the CCP's no-limits unrestricted warfare.

Multiple insiders revealed that on January 24, the CMC initiated "pre-war state" level control measures to prevent potential internal disruptions and sudden risks.
The gravity of Xi Jinping’s move to detain Zhang Youxia has surpassed any previous instance of internal struggle in the CCP’s history and may well become a major historical event triggering a systemic avalanche within the Party. It is therefore crucial to analyze the possible trajectories of this development.
The phrase “seriously trampled on and undermined the system of responsibility of the Chairman of the Central Military Commission” clearly indicates that Zhang Youxia once disobeyed Xi Jinping’s orders and sidelined Xi Jinping. This is equivalent to indirectly acknowledging that Xi Jinping once lost, or partially lost, control of the military.
Regarding Zhang Youxia this time, many officers and ordinary soldiers had absolutely no prior knowledge. They suddenly learned about it from the Ministry of National Defense news.
Xi Jinping has not yet stabilized the situation. The Zhang Youxia faction continues to take action
Chinese authorities reported a youth unemployment rate of 16.5% for non-student individuals aged 16-24 in December 2025, marking the fourth consecutive monthly decline.
