Publisher's summary

#1 New York Times Bestseller

Peter Schweizer says that, in a quarter-century as an investigative journalist, this is the scariest investigation he has ever conducted.

That the Chinese government seeks to infiltrate American institutions is hardly surprising. What is wholly new, however, are the number of American elites who are eager to help the Chinese dictatorship in its quest for global hegemony.

Presidential families, Silicon Valley gurus, Wall Street high rollers, Ivy League universities, even professional athletes—all willing to sacrifice American strength and security on the altar of personal enrichment.

In Red-Handed, six-time New York Times bestselling investigator Peter Schweizer presents his most alarming findings to date by revealing the secret deals wealthy Americans have cut to help China build its military, technological, and economic might. Equally as astonishing, many of these elites quietly believe the Chinese dictatorial regime is superior to American democracy.

Schweizer and his team of forensic investigators spent over a year scouring a massive trove of global corporate records and legal filings to expose the hidden transactions China’s enablers hoped would never see the light of day. And as Schweizer’s past bombshells like Profiles in Corruption, Secret Empires, and Clinton Cash all made clear, there are bad actors on both ends of the political spectrum.

Exhaustively researched, crisply told, and chilling, Red-Handed will expose the nexus of power between the Chinese government and the American elites who do its bidding.

A must listen !

This book spells out all of the evil corruption that has been going on behind the veil of not only D.C. but the institutions of higher education, the tech companies and Wall Street . China has been selling us the rope to hang ourselves with for decades . Those that sell their souls and harm others have much to answer for . The timeline and breakdown is fascinating. God help us .

Red Handed Schweitzer

I thought this was a thorough, timely review of the threat of Communist China. Their determination is to advance their ideology by the use of American diplomats, Wall Street, Big Tech, educational institutions , etc. The willingness of these entities for personal financial is un-American and plays into the hands of our adversaries. I highly recommend this excellent read!

Painfully Revealing and Disturbing

This book makes clear the real intentions of many western politicians and business people. Politics is the most dangerous entity on the planet! I plan on listening again, because there's a lot of information to digest. If you're a truth seeker, like me, listen to, or read this insightful book.

Eye Opening, Great Book

Great read, really important to read through with the current climate. Saw this on the Shawn Ryan Show and had to listen. Didn't disappoint, but made me want to pull my hair out.

catalog of treachery

Excellent book featuring countless factual examples of American politicians, investors, and businesses aiding China's development of its military and intelligence activities while these individuals ignore or even supporting the egregious human rights violations the communist party engages in.

The book is nonpartisan and calls out individuals on both sides of the aisle. I believe the information in this book is critical to help shape American policy in the future.

Should Be Required

This book should be required reading in all of our colleges and universities. Unfortunately the exact opposite information is being presented It is only a short matter of time before this country suffers greatly from it being espoused in our schools

Interested in corruption?

Thought this book was fantastic. Any proud American citizen should own this title. A lot of information about how China is trying to take over the United States.
