Today I'm excited to be joined by Miles View.

Miles is a senior fellow and the director of the China Center over with our friends at

the Hudson Institute.

He's worked under Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in the State Department during the

Trump administration and we're excited to have him here today.

Miles, thank you so much for joining us.

I'll go over to be here with you, Emily.

Miles, could you start just by maybe giving us a little overview of your background?

How you ended up at the State Department, how you ended up over at Hudson, that would be awesome.

Well, I've been in this earth for several decades now, so story could be long, could be short.

I believe Reagan would have been a very strong Federalist.

And I then went to school here in this United States and I came to an office

Maryland or got a job at the service academy.

And then I think you know, when during the 2016 election and I was pretty much like

China policy advisor.
