Mike Pompeo to Newsmax TV: Biden's China Take 'Disheartening'
Newsmax ^ | 20 Feb 2021 1:44 PM | By Eric Mack

President Joe Biden's dismissive remark at a CNN town hall this week – where he appeared to accept China's human rights abuses of Muslim Uighurs as different cultural "norms" – has "disheartened" former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

"To pawn this off as a different norm or a different set of behaviors, that's what the Chinese Communist Party says," Pompeo told Newsmax TV's "Saturday Agenda." "That's how they talk about this. They just say, 'look, we have a different culture, we're a little bit different.'

"This isn't about different cultures or different norms. This is about a deep human rights violation."

Pompeo noted Secretary of State Antony Blinken has agreed with the Trump administration's classification of China's treatment of the ethnic Uighurs as "genocide," so President Biden needs to get with the program, he told host Heather Childers.

Agreed. However, if the 2020 steal isn’t overturned/nullified, there won’t be a 2024. First things first.

Not on North Korea. Complete and utter disaster both on the issue of nukes and freedom for Christians. Reprehensible and indefensible. He lost it in press conferences when pressed on specific results. Kim only added to his stockpiles, declared nor surrendered not a damn one, and through 15 or more short ranged missile tests since May 2019, upgraded NK trajectory and velocity technology able to now penetrate South Korean/US joint THAAD missile defenses in the South and like PAC-3 stationed here in Japan .

Me three. He had (another) great interivew 2 weeks ago on Maria Bartiromo’s Sunday morning futures. She tried to tease it out of him...but he demurred. He’s not going away. He’d have my vote.
