Leslie is rejoined by Scott Paul, President of the Alliance for American Manufacturing (AAM), a partnership established by some of America’s leading manufacturers and the United Steelworkers union.

For over a decade, Mr. Paul and AAM have worked to make American manufacturing a top-of-mind issue for voters and our national leaders through effective advocacy, innovative research, and a savvy public relations strategy.

The two discuss how, while America thought it would be transforming China, China and its policies have been transforming the United States.  Unfortunately for Americans, many of those transformations have not gone well for the U.S. 

One of the most recent examples is how the stifling of free speech has crossed the Pacific Ocean from the People's Republic to our own backyard.  This has been apparent in the case of many U.S. companies cow-towing to China's demands to not give voice to Hong Kong and its pro-democracy protests.  One very public example has been the backlash to a pro Hong-Kong tweet by the owner of the NBA's Houston Rockets, Daryl Morey.
Leslie and Scott also discuss a massive series of thefts of biomedical secrets being stolen from some of the most prestigious medical schools in the U.S. and sent back to China.
Additionally, they analyze a new plan by Senator Marco Rubio that would block U.S. federal pensions from investing in China.
Finally, Scott helps to explain a new W.T.O. decision that will allow China to impose trade sanctions on U.S. goods.
