For years, China has been committing a genocide against the Uighur people. This summer, a tribunal detailed just how bad the genocide has become — from infantide, forced abortions, torture, and sexual violence to concentration camps, forced labor, and more. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi recently acknowledged the genocide taking place, but outrageously implied that the U.S. should look the other way when it comes to China’s human rights abuses because they are needed in the fight against climate change.
Pelosi made the remarks at an event in the United Kingdom, where she had been invited to speak to the Cambridge Union Society at Cambridge University.
“With their military aggression in the South China Sea, with their continuation of genocide with the Uyghurs in Xinjiang province, with their violation of the cultural, religious priority of Tibet, with their suppression of democracy in Hong Kong and other parts of China as well, they’re just getting worse in terms of suppression and freedom of speech. So human rights, security, economically. Having said all of that,” she said, “… we have to work together on climate. Climate is an overriding issue and China is the leading emitter in the world, U.S. too, developed world too, but we must work together. So we have to have a level of communication on whether it’s COVID, whether it’s terrorism, whether it’s climate. We still have to have some communication and dialogue with China on that.” Human rights organizations have increasingly been condemning China for its human right abuses, the most notable of which is the Uighur genocide, though it is far from the only issue of human rights. Currently, there are at least one million Uighurs believed to be held in concentration camps, where they are treated much the same way prisoners were during the Holocaust. This includes food deprivation, torture, overcrowding, solitary confinement, forced labor, torture, rape, forced sterilization, forced separation of children from their parents, destruction of cultural and religious heritage, and organ harvesting by Chinese authorities against Uighurs.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
