Evil: New Evidence Points to Mass-Scale Forced Labor in Communist China

No one should or will be surprised by this, but it's an outrage nonetheless.  The Chinese Communist Party's egregious human rights record is one of the worst on earth, and the evidence continues to mount.  The forced labor issue is already on America's radar screen, with Congress moving to crack down, despite objections from some major corporations -- including the phony woke stars at Nike.  There's now mounting evidence that the regime's concentration camps and forced labor practices overlapped:

China has built more than 100 new facilities in Xinjiang where it can not only lock people up, but also force them to work in dedicated factory buildings right on site, BuzzFeed News can reveal based on government records, interviews, and hundreds of satellite images.
