U.S. Imposes More Sanctions On China

CNBC/Reuters: U.S. adds 14 Chinese companies, to economic blacklist over Xinjiang 

The Biden administration on Friday added 14 Chinese companies and other entities to its economic blacklist over alleged human rights abuses and high-tech surveillance in Xinjiang. 

The Commerce Department said the companies had been “implicated in human rights violations and abuses in the implementation of China’s campaign of repression, mass detention, and high technology surveillance against Uyghurs, Kazakhs, and other members of Muslim minority groups in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region.” 

Beijing denies the alleged abuses.

Now is the time for countries around the world to join forces, condemn the CCP, and begin squeezing that POS snake hard. Especially countries from whom it obtains it's oil and raw materials. Should have been done 10 years ago, but I doubt they'll see the light even now.

Yeah I'll never forget the Democrats for that Russia collusion hoax, it was beyond shameful. BUT again, my friends, it's understandable because the media keeps lying and dividing us since their revenue model for news switched. And this fascist like CNN licking of the state party boot must stop. Even Fox news in the 90s wasn't that rampantly misinforming and straight out lying. It's obscene. It's absolutely repulsive. I can't imagine working there, knowing what you do, what you cause, every day.. like a cancer. Uhhhh
