The Uyghurs in China had a friend in President Trump and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. They pressured Beijing over the concentration camps that currently hold over a million Muslim and Christian minorities and publicly condemned the Chinese Communist Party for “genocide.” It initially appeared the Biden administration would continue this stance, but new reports indicate they’re looking for a way out of the designation.
They’re citing “technical flaws” as a way to withdraw the genocide designation. According to Just The News:
“The State Department is reviewing that now because all of the procedures were not followed,” Biden’s pick for U.N. ambassador, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday. “They’re looking to make sure that they are followed to ensure that that designation is held.”
Mary Vought, executive director of the Senate Conservatives Fund, wrote in a Wall Street Journal op-ed Friday that she was encouraged by Blinken’s remarks but concerned about possible backsliding by Biden.
“[If] forced to choose between a climate deal and addressing Uighurs held in modern-day concentration camps,” wrote Vought, “will the president suddenly find China’s crimes against humanity — and religious freedom — politically inconvenient?”
Rob Noel, a former speechwriter for Pompeo, meanwhile, called Blinken’s defense of the Uyghurs “a beautiful moment.”
“That was a great American moment of solidarity,” Noel told “Just the News AM” television show. “[If] the Biden administration is looking for a place to start with a bipartisan issue that they can bring the country together on, the China challenge is absolutely it.”
This is an example of how the Biden administration will be pressured by the President’s friends in the Chinese Communist Party. All of the fluff about “technical flaws” is subterfuge. They will announce that they’re withdrawing the designation for the sake of making sure they do it better, then they’ll conveniently move it down the priority list to the point that it will never be revisited again.
It’s also an example of how the resistance against the Biden administration must keep the pressure up. This issue is an important one, not just for the Uyghurs but also for Americans who do not want the Chinese Communist Party controlling our government. We cannot let this slide into obscurity. When the genocide designation is pulled, we cannot allow the issue to fall into a memory hole.
Withdrawing the genocide designation over technical flaws is a way to reconcile with the Chinese Communist Party without losing face in America. Mainstream media will sweep this under the rug for them as Uyghurs continue to be persecuted.
This. Is. Disgusting.
It’s almost like he’s literally the reverse of Trump...From America First to America Last
Cue the hot pants, disco music, and Sears catalogs! The Jimmy Carter years are back again, baby!
Genocide schmenocide
Joe needs money!
So; does the ‘president’ think that slavery is OK, as long as it happens somewhere ‘over there’???
The dog ate the only copy of the genicide report. They had to shred it and hid it in his dog food over the past week but it is finally gobe.
But those white supremacists constantly doing stuff to minorities is our biggest problem even though nobody seems to know any white supremacists except democrats who think blacks are too stupid to get IDs or that any kind of skills assessment for employment or any kind of merit based promotion always and always disadvantages blacks. And nobody seems to know what These alleged supremacists are doing to minorities other than the occasional hate hoax such as hanging noose shaped pull cords or vandalizing ones own property or body to create a national news event
Sort of like using “debunked” when you really don’t have a legitimate answer.
Make Malaise Great Again! Well, at least Saturday Night Live (is it still on?) was funny back then.
“The State Department is reviewing that now because all of the procedures were not followed,” Biden’s pick … Linda Thomas-Greenfield, told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Wednesday.”
Translation: Biden supports genocide.
It should be noted that the German Reich had an advanced legal system, staffed by some of the best legal scholars in the world. The Third Reich did everything by the book. Like Biden, they worked to ensure that "all procedures were followed".
Yes this is sarcasm.
Why not, they think pollution is OK so long as it happens over there.
Genocide: A. o.k. with China Joe!
The Left may have to change their hierarchy of victimhood.
Muslims used to trump Chinese.
But now ideology trumps religion, and maybe even race.
Old paradigm:
Race (Non-White preferential)
trumps
Religion (Non-Christian preferential)
trumps
Sexual Orientation (Non-straight preferential)
trumps
Gender (Non-male preferential)
trumps
Other
New Paradigm:
Ideology (Communist preferential)
trumps
Race (Non-White preferential)
trumps
Religion (Non-Christian preferential)
trumps
Sexual Orientation (Non-straight preferential)
trumps
Gender (Non-male preferential)
trumps
Everything else
I knew it!
My adopted daughter is Uighur and we have all been worried about that Uighur population with the fake election of Biden.
Trump interceded for them, and he is greatly respected in the Uighur community.
The devil is working overtime, that’s for sure.
