In a sharp rebuke to Trump-era policies, Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Tuesday formally scrapped a blueprint championed by his predecessor to limit U.S. promotion of human rights abroad to causes favored by conservatives like religious freedom and property matters while dismissing reproductive and LGBTQ rights.
Blinken said a report prepared for former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo that sought to pare down the number of freedoms prioritized in U.S. foreign policy was “unbalanced,” did not reflect Biden administration policies and would not guide them. The report from Pompeo’s Commission on Unalienable Rights had been harshly criticized by human rights groups.
“One of the core principles of human rights is that they are universal. All people are entitled to these rights, no matter where they’re born, what they believe, whom they love, or any other characteristic,” Blinken said. “Human rights are also co-equal; there is no hierarchy that makes some rights more important than others.” […]
Blinken also reversed a Trump administration decision to remove sections on reproductive rights from the State Department’s annual human rights reports on foreign countries. “Women’s rights — including sexual and reproductive rights — are human rights,” he said. …

More globalist carp from the fraud admin.
“Blinken’ seems to be ‘sailing on a river of crystal light,
into a sea of dew...’
And the equally fraudulant Associated Press.
Yup....co-conspirators.
There is a right way to do things..
There is a right way to govern..
There is a wrong way also. and it leads to destruction.
One thing the dems have down to a T... everything they touch.. everything they think up in their off set brains... is WRONG.. from the pits they live in and plan in.. they end up in destruction... no common sense.. no kind of sense... their lust for control engulfs them in every vein.
We know Blinken, and we know who Nod is....but who is Winken?
LOL!
I can’t think of who ‘Winken’ might be.
(But I think a lot of people are winkin’ as they watch this complete fumble of a ‘presidential administration’.
See how fast they fling his Woke @ss off a three story building...
This is why Islam is fast spreading in underdeveloped nations..resultant social products of the West have created a rejected unnatural social condition. People are now having to choose this against the ilks of the the other, leaving little good to choose between anymore.
I think one should look to the motivations and influence of the single greatest violator of human and religious rights and freedoms in the world today, China. To cancel the Trump initiatives, is to be complicit with China’s ongoing ethnic cleansing, use of slave labor, and genocide.
Biden would just claim that this reflects cultural differences. Of course it does! Our culture normally would not allow any of these crimes against Humanity to exist, much less continue on. But the Biden regime seems to be an exception.
The b****-slapping Blinken got in Alaska indicates China does not find Biden’s policies
and his P/C military of woke Generals, transsexuals, and pregnant female soldiers intimidating.
Great minds think alike. See my post #13
Heh.....good one.
This is becoming hopeless as the Democrats force the population to look down their pants and wonder what they see, and if it belongs there. Property rights and religion are core principles of a society. The CCP lords over a mostly atheistic populace, no freedom of religion, and the left thinks it is fine. Human history teaches us that when belief in the gods or God is gone the civilization collapses. Do Dems want to keep our civilization together with force? Does the CCP? They are battling the laws of Nature and of Nature’s god and they will lose.
The Communist Purge Is Growing Exponentially & Nothing Is Being Done About It!
That’s a tautology. Since the left in the USA believes in the same things that the CCP do, why would they diverge from the party line? Remember all the commies that Obama picked during his first term.
The CCP lords over a mostly atheistic populace, no freedom of religion, and the left thinks it is fine.
With all due respect, I hope you aren’t actually suggesting that civilization can be sustained by child-sacrificing paganism.
Human history teaches us that when belief in the gods or God is gone the civilization collapses.
The US is trying to take its freak show to the rest of the world.
Civilized nations are not amused.
