The National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) faced controversy over its sponsorship by Huawei, a Chinese telecommunications company. Van Jones reportedly withdrew from an NABJ event after learning of the Huawei connection. The hosts suggest that foreign interests, including the Chinese Communist Party, exert influence over black media organizations and political movements.

The hosts speculate on why Daryl Morey would send such a high-risk tweet, suggesting he may have been encouraged by outside political forces. They also consider if the NBA controversy is serving as a distraction from more significant issues in the China-U.S. relationship, such as 5G network security and espionage.
