习近平疑似受到严重挑战
12月16日，中共新华网刊登评论文章《“崇美”“跪美”的软骨病得治！》，作者署名“辛识平”。据悉，“辛识平”是新华社《学习进行时》栏目“讲习所”的一个评论署名，也是习近平团队向外传递信息的一个直接渠道。
时事评论人士杨威分析，这篇针对中共党内不同声音的评论文章，显然是习近平直接授意写的。从侧面反映出习近平的对美政策，引发中共内部强烈反弹。
近日，中共深度干预美国大选的证据不断曝光，同时中共还四面出击，却招致川普（特朗普）政府更猛烈地回击。最近，川普政府对14名中共副国级官员实施制裁，禁止他们及其亲属入境美国，并冻结其在美资产，这对中共高层核心圈，可谓是致命一击。
不仅如此，川普政府12月3日还宣布，取消中共党员及其家属的赴美旅行10年签证，限制为单月单次入境。而且，美国已明令禁止中共党员移民美国。
美国针对中共党员的制裁加码，令党内高层对习近平生出抱怨和不满。中共近期连续召开政治局和政治局常委会议，但党媒的报导却丝毫不提美中关系。杨威认为，很可能是中共内部产生激烈争论，所以无法报导。
中共高层一直极力掩盖内部争斗，但党媒罕见公开发文痛骂党内“投降派”，声称“一段时间以来，一些人散布种种‘崇美’‘跪美’论调”，这恰恰证实党内确实有人发表了“放弃美中对抗”这样的言论，这让习近平威信大减。
杨威分析，党媒抨击的“一些人”，极有可能是中共政治局或者政治局常委一级的人，而且不是一两个人。
同时，文章还提到，面对“大风大浪”，只要有“信心”，就没有过不去的“坎”。杨威表示，这表明习近平试图继续维持党内对他的信心，但却无意中承认目前的“坎”极有可能过不了。而这个“坎”恰恰是习近平自己造成的，以至于现在党内不但有人再次公开质疑，还有人趁机兴风作浪。
众叛亲离 内部力量试图瓦解中共
另外，习近平豪赌拜登、介入美国大选被中共专家无意中曝光后，又有195万中共党员资料突然外泄，中共党员深层渗透世界各国、各个行业，震惊全球。
据澳洲《澳大利亚人报》和英国《每日邮报》等媒体12月13日报导称，一名中国异议人士9月份在加密通信软体Telegram上，将一个包含195万中共党员信息的外流资料库，传给了关注中共政府活动的“对华政策跨国议会联盟”（IPAC）。
这些中共党员的信息包括姓名、生日、身份证号、民族，党内职务被详细记录，有的还附有地址和电话。报导说，这次重大泄漏事件暴露了在澳大利亚、英国和美国等西方社会的部分中共党员，同时也揭露了在习近平领导下的共产党如何运作的秘密。
知名评论人士林保华表示，这份外泄名单涉及全球各国的中共情报工作，就是中共的友邦也难以接受。因此全球必然会掀起一波“清共”潮，这对习近平来说是最致命的一击。
美国国家情报总监拉特克利夫（John Ratcliffe），12月3日在《华尔街日报》发表的评论文章指出，中共是对全球民主和自由的最大威胁。中共对全球在经济、军事和技术方面的影响渗透，每个国家和个人都难以置身事外。
阿波罗网评论员林峰分析，这起中共党员名单外泄事件，表明中共内部有力量在配合美国对党员进行制裁，从内部瓦解中共。
今年以来，中共体制内人士倒戈事件层出不穷。红二代任志强批评中共和习近平抗疫不力；中共党校退休教授、红二代蔡霞直言中共是“政治僵尸”，必须抛弃，还暗指习近平是中共黑帮老大；中国足球名将郝海东夫妇公开宣读“灭共宣言”；中共前青海政协委员王瑞琴实名要求罢免习近平等等，显示中共已经众叛亲离。
一位不愿意透露姓名的中共体制内人士透露，很多红二代都支持川普，因为只有川普领导的美国才能制约中共。而中共党媒此时突然公开抨击内部对美“投降派”，释放出中共高层内斗炙烈的信号，习近平疑似正深陷内斗风暴。

The Chinese Communist Party media recently issued a rare article attacking the "surrender faction" within the Party, claiming that "the cartilage disease of 'worshiping the U.S.' and 'kneeling to the U.S.' needs to be cured. ". The article, signed by "Xin Qiping," is believed to have been written at the behest of Xi Jinping. Some analysts believe that the Communist Party's top brass has been trying to cover up internal strife, but the article reveals that Xi Jinping's decisions are being seriously challenged and his prestige is greatly diminished, and Xi is suspected to be caught in a storm of internal strife.
Xi Jinping suspected to be under serious challenge
On December 16, the Chinese Communist Party's Xinhua website published a commentary article, "The Cartilage Disease of "Chongmei" and "Kneeling to America" Must be Cured! The article was signed by "Xin Qiping". It is reported that "Xin Siping" is a commentary byline of Xinhua's "Study in Progress" column "Seminar", which is also a direct channel for Xi Jinping's team to deliver information to the outside world.
According to current affairs commentator Yang Wei, the commentary, which addresses different voices within the CCP, was apparently written at the direct request of Xi Jinping. From the side, it reflects Xi's policy toward the United States, which has triggered a strong backlash within the CCP.
Recently, evidence of deep Chinese interference in the U.S. election has been coming to light, while the CCP has been striking out on all fronts, only to draw even more fierce backlash from the Trump administration. Recently, the Trump administration imposed sanctions on 14 vice-ranking Communist Party officials, banning them and their relatives from entering the U.S. and freezing their assets in the U.S. This is a fatal blow to the Communist Party's top inner circle.
Not only that, the Trump administration also announced on December 3 that it would cancel the 10-year visas for CCP members and their families to travel to the U.S. and limit them to a single entry for a single month. Moreover, the U.S. has explicitly prohibited CCP members from immigrating to the U.S.
The increase in U.S. sanctions against CCP members has led to complaints and dissatisfaction with Xi Jinping at the top of the Party. The CCP has recently held successive Politburo and Politburo Standing Committee meetings, but party media reports have not mentioned the U.S.-China relationship at all. Yang Wei believes it is likely that there is a heated debate within the CCP and therefore no coverage.
The CCP top brass has been trying hard to cover up the internal strife, but the party media has issued a rare public article scolding the "surrender faction" within the party, claiming that "for a period of time, some people have been spreading all sorts of arguments about 'honoring the U.S.' and 'kneeling to the U.S.'", which precisely confirms that some people within the party have indeed made such statements as "abandoning the U.S.-China confrontation", which has greatly undermined Xi Jinping's prestige.
According to Yang Wei's analysis, the "some people" attacked by the party media are most likely to be at the level of the CCP's Politburo or Politburo Standing Committee, and not just one or two people.
At the same time, the article also mentioned that in the face of "big winds and big waves", as long as there is "confidence", there is no "hurdle" that cannot be overcome. Yang Wei said this indicates that Xi is trying to maintain the party's confidence in him, but inadvertently admits that the current "hurdle" is very likely to be impossible to overcome. This "hurdle" is precisely of Xi Jinping's own making, so that now some in the party are not only questioning it publicly again, but also taking advantage of it to make waves.
Rebellion and Internal Forces Trying to Dismantle the CCP
In addition, after Xi Jinping's big bet on Joe Biden and his involvement in the U.S. election were inadvertently exposed by CCP experts, information on another 1.95 million CCP members was suddenly leaked, shocking the world with the deep penetration of CCP members in various countries and industries around the world.
The Australian newspaper The Australian and the British newspaper Daily Mail reported on December 13 that a Chinese dissident leaked a database containing information on 1.95 million Chinese Communist Party members on the encrypted communications software Telegram in September to the Inter-Parliamentary Policy Alliance on China (IPAC), which follows the activities of the Chinese Communist government.
The information on these members included their names, birthdays, ID numbers, ethnicities, and party positions, and in some cases, addresses and phone numbers. The report said the major leak exposed some of the CCP members in Western societies such as Australia, Britain and the United States, while also revealing secrets about how the Communist Party operates under Xi Jinping's leadership.
The leaked list, which involves Chinese Communist Party intelligence work in countries around the world, is difficult to accept even for the Communist Party's friendly countries, said prominent commentator Paul Lin. The leaked list, which involves the Communist Party's intelligence work in countries around the world, would be unacceptable to even the Communist Party's friends, and would be the most damaging blow to Xi Jinping.
John Ratcliffe, the U.S. director of national intelligence, said in a December 3 opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal that the CCP is the greatest threat to global democracy and freedom. The Chinese Communist Party has penetrated the world economically, militarily and technologically, and it is difficult for every country and individual to stay out of the way.
Apollo.com commentator Lin Feng analyzed that this leaked list of CCP members indicates that there are forces within the CCP that are cooperating with the U.S. to impose sanctions on party members and dismantle the CCP from within.
Since this year, there have been numerous incidents of people within the Chinese Communist Party system turning against the Party. Ren Zhiqiang, a second-generation Red Leader, criticized the CCP and Xi Jinping for their ineffectiveness in fighting the epidemic; Cai Xia, a retired professor at the CCP Party School and a second-generation Red Leader, said that the CCP is a "political zombie" and must be abandoned, and alluded to Xi Jinping as a CCP gangster; Hao Haidong, a famous Chinese soccer player, and his wife publicly read out a "Declaration of Extermination of the CCP "The former member of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference in Qinghai, Wang Ruiqin, has called for the removal of Xi Jinping in his real name.
A person in the Chinese Communist Party system, who did not want to be named, revealed that many of the second generation of Reds support Trump because only the United States under Trump can restrain the Chinese Communist Party. The Chinese Communist Party media suddenly openly attacked the internal "surrender faction" to the United States at this time, releasing a signal of intense infighting at the top of the Chinese Communist Party, and Xi Jinping is suspected to be caught in a storm of internal strife.
