US Agency Seizes Thousands Of Alabama School Laptops Reportedly Linked To Forced Uighur Labor In China

A U.S. agency has seized more than 4,000 new laptops en route to an Alabama school district because the laptops involved an electronics manufacturer implicated in the forced labor of Uighur Muslims in China , ABC reported .
The U.S. Department of Commerce intercepted the laptops and is holding them in customs because an electronics manufacturer related to the device ’ s production , Hefei Bitland Information Technology Co.

Ltd., is one of 11 companies facing sanctions by the U.S. for suspected use of forced labor in Xinjiang, according to ABC.
Etowah County Schools had ordered the Chromebook computers in June through a reseller called Trinity3 Technology, which helps supply schools with remote learning technology, the school’s superintendent Alan Cosby said according to ABC.
After the district was informed that the laptops were being held by the U.S. agency and would not be delivered until October, Cosby cancelled the order and purchased laptops from another vendor that could make the delivery to the school by September, closer to the school year’s start Aug. 17. The school district has 8,000 students, and 1,600 were registered to start the year with distance learning due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The president and CEO of Trinity3 Technology, Scott Gill, confirmed that a “number of devices were held up that were scheduled for deliveries to schools across the country.”
The district was primarily concerned with the number of laptops that would be available for student use if the district was to switch to entirely remote learning.

“I know that’s not the only district,” Hollingsworth said according to ABC, “I’m 100% sure of that.”

Dozens of companies have been implicated in the use of forced labor in Xinjiang, where Uighurs and other Muslim minorities have reportedly been forced to work at factories.

“ I don ’ t know what else I could do other than change the minds and the psychology of everybody in the world .

President Donald Trump dug his heels in on the culture war during a Wednesday morning interview on Fox News, but he conceded that if he’s wrong, he’ll “lose an election.”
“When I see them kneeling, I just turn off the game,” he told the Fox & Friends crew when asked about NBA players protesting the National Anthem. “We need to stand up for our flag, We need to stand up for our country and stand up for our anthem, and a lot of people agree with me.”
“Hey, if I’m wrong, I will lose an election, and that’s OK with me,” he continued. “I will always stand for our country and flag. That’s what we are all about.
WATCH:
Earlier in the interview, Trump called Black Lives Matter a “marxist group.”
“Black Lives Matter, where did it start?” the president posed. “Marching down streets screaming, ‘pigs in a blanket, fry them like bacon!’ They were talking about policemen.”
“All of a sudden this has taken on this air of great respectability,” he continued. “It’s a marxist group. It’s a marxist group that is not looking for good things for our country, and now I see these leagues all kneeling down, and, again, nobody has done more for the black community by far.”
During Daily Caller’s exclusive interview with Trump in the Oval Office, he wondered why he isn’t currently polling at “100 percent” with the black community. (EXCLUSIVE: Trump Says He ‘Should Be At 100 Percent’ Approval With Black Voters)
“The polling is very fake anyway when it comes to me,” he stated. “I don’t know what else I could do other than change the minds and the psychology of everybody in the world.

Sleep Standard is offering people a decent amount of money to simply have sex on different kinds of mattresses.
According to Men’s Health, the sleep website is offering $3,000 to people to have sex on different mattresses and then review them. (SLIDESHOW: These Women On Instagram Hate Wearing Clothes)
A description on the Sleep Standard website explains, “We’re looking for 5 lucky couples that can take part in our experiment. We’ll send you a new mattress every week and all you have to do is give us your honest reviews on how good that mattress is for sex. That’s right, you can get paid for doing what you do in your regular everyday life – Sex!” (SLIDESHOW: 142 Times Josephine Skriver Barely Wore Anything)
Getting paid $3,000 to have sex sure is a nice stud fee. That’s a lot of cash, especially when you consider it might be less than a minute of work for some us out there. (SLIDESHOW: 71 Times Samantha Hoopes Stripped Down)
Imagine trying to pitch this idea to your significant other. How do you even start the conversation? I mean, do you lead with the money angle or the sex angle? (SLIDESHOW: This Blonde Bombshell Might Be The Hottest Model On The Internet)
I feel like you have to lead with the money. I think we can all agree that $3,000 is a solid chunk of money, especially when we’re talking about doing something that most people do for free. (SLIDESHOW: 60 Times Abigail Ratchford Wore Almost Nothing)
Would I do a sex review on a mattress? I can’t say for sure, but I’m the ultimate capitalist. If you’re going to have sex, you might as well get paid.
Nobody is asking you to review the sex. You’re just being asked to review the mattress. All things considered, it’s not that crazy.
Let us know if you’d do it in the comments!
