Guests - Ava Chen, Nate Foster

Two U.S. military aircraft went down in the South China Sea this week—one fighter jet, one helicopter—both operating off the USS Nimitz during routine missions. Pilots ejected safely from the jet; the helicopter crashed but all crew survived. Everyone is recovering. The Navy says the cause is under investigation.

But according to Ava Chen, co-host of *China Watch Wednesday* and a representative of the New Federal State of China (NFSC), the crashes were no accident. “It is the CCP behind it,” she declared. “It’s CCP’s post-interference technology that has caused these two incidents. The timing is perfect.”

Tucson Police Detective Nate Foster doesn’t mince words.

“We’re 400 officers short,” he told host Kathleen Winn. “We had 1,200 when I started. Now we’re at 800. And they just cut our overtime.”

That means no proactive policing. Officers race from priority call to priority call. No follow-up. No deterrence.
