What is the ownership structure, is it fully Chinese controlled, and would Unkel Sam be able to trace posts on there back to US users?

Best to assume anything you do on the internet is visible to the feds if they want to look for it.

That said, I think its safe to assume they have better visibility into services running on US infrastructure. Rednote currently uses entirely China based servers, so probably it's safer from US government snooping. Doesn't mean they can't can't connect your account to your real identity through other means, though.
