Synopsis

#1 New York Times BestsellerPeter 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.

Every source is named and nobody is safe from the investigations conducted by Peter Schweizer and a crew of forensic investigators.

Goodreads review by L.A. on May 18, 2022

This is an excellent compendium of investigative journalism by Schweizer. He spares no one--not Republicans, Democrats, basketball stars, capitalists, bankers, nor universities as he delivers painful details about how Chinese have bought off so many of them. While discouraging, this is a very importa......more

Goodreads review by Michael on August 28, 2022

Quite the interesting book, to say the least. Almost a political form of the Godfather series! However it spans other presidents and their families, not just Biden. Funny how politicians are able to go into public service and come out millionaires, and yet, those working-class stiffs out in the soci......more

A thoroughly researched book into how China has co-opted politicians, institutions, and corporations. I wish I could say I was surprised, or even disappointed.......more

Goodreads review by Bernard on January 30, 2022

There is no one in Washington D.C. working for me and they seem to all be making a lot of money. Nothing suspicious here, move along, move along! Books like this one do not start revolutions, but failing to thoroughly investigate and expose the corruption shown in these types of books does cause revo......more
