Incredibly relieved & overjoyed to hear my friend and former colleague, Cheng Lei, is back home after being released from China. Much has changed since this pic was taken a few weeks before her arrest in 2020. So glad she's back in Australia! https://t.co/WzaGc4GWnM

“If the leader of the free world is telling you that, you know your travel is being affected I would think that we have to give you your money back.”

@trish_regan might be becoming a household name in #China. A ton of coverage here about the #tradewar chat with my colleague, @thepointwithlx.

My colleague, @thepointwithlx, tonight on one of #China’s biggest news programs after discussing the #tradewar with @trish_regan. An indication of how closely #China was watching.
