Sen. Marsha Blackburn Denounces Uyghur Genocide After Chinese State Media Mouthpiece Called Her Racist – By Tristan Justice (The Federalist) / Dec 3 2020
Tennessee Sen. Marsha Blackburn called out the ongoing genocide of the Uyghur Muslims by the Chinese Communist Party after a member of the Chinese state media hurled sexist profanities at the Republican on Twitter and labeled her the “most racist” senator.
“From Tiananmen Square to the Uyghur genocide, Communist China is an expert at slaughtering populations,” Blackburn said in a statement Thursday. “America will not bow down to sexist communist thugs.”
The Chinese Communist Party is holding millions of Uyghur Muslims in concentration camps featuring forced sterilization and slave labor in the northwest province of Xinjiang, otherwise referred to as East Turkistan by those who have declared independence from China but have not been given the same level of recognition as Tibet.
