On COI #76, Patrick McFarlane – host of Liberty Weekly – returns to the show. Kyle and Pat discuss how members of the independent media, including libertarians, are pushing anti-China propaganda. A recent report used birth data to push the claim that the Chinese government was committing a genocide against the Muslim Uyghur minority.

A recent article by Gareth Porter and Max Blumenthal looks at the data behind the claims. The figures, when analyzed alongside Chinese government policy, shows that a decline in birth rates is not due to an ongoing genocide. Kyle and Pat break down the details and other false claims against China. Pat explains how the anti-China myths make it into the American mainstream through the Epoch Times newspaper and the shady group behind it.

Just before recording, the Pentagon confirmed Biden had ordered the bombing of Shia militias in Syria. Kyle breaks down the early reporting on the strikes and the dangers of Biden's escalation.
