Thailand is failing to meet its basic obligations as a member of the international community. It is a miscarriage of justice that #YQuynhBdap would be extradited back to Vietnam. Unfortunately, this is not the first time Thailand has failed to protect those within its borders.

Excellent column in @WSJ explaining China's history of being at war with faith and why they fight it. It is a battle they will ultimately lose. God will prevail. https://t.co/YIClTUH7dM

Recent arrests highlight Beijing’s deep ideological hostility to religious life, which flourishes even in the face of repression.

China fears religious freedom more than they fear our aircraft carriers or nuclear weapons. If the Chinese Communist Party can eradicate religious freedom without consequences, it undermines the authority of America’s founding values and global leadership.

China's crackdown on religious freedom — including recent arrests of Christian church members — represents a national security threat to the U.S. and must be met with a powerful response, a coa

The @IRF_Ambassador post is too important to be vacant when religious liberty is under threat around the world. The Senate should confirm Mark Walker ASAP. We need a confirmed ambassador to fight for this fundamental human right in Washington and overseas.

Mark Walker has waited for over seven months for his Senate confirmation, despite involved parties stressing the importance of the role to the Daily Caller.

A federated Syria is the best long-term solution for a peaceful and religiously tolerant Syria. @POTUS should condition future US aid on #Syria's government protecting Christians and other religious minorities. #InternationalReligiousFreedom

Syria's Christian population has plummeted from 1.5 million to 300,000. Trump's meeting with Syrian leadership could determine their survival in their ancient homeland.

Deeply saddened at the passing of former Vice President Dick Cheney. He was a great public servant who ably served our country under four Republican Presidents. He was one of the chief architects of our post-9/11 security and kept us safe. God rest his Soul.

Nigeria has the ability to stop the slaughter of innocent Christians. It needs the motivation. Thankful for @POTUS redesignating it a Country of Particular Concern and bringing pressure on the government to act. @JoshBreslowTV @livenowfox

I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of former Kansas Senate President Steve Morris. He was a dedicated public servant of the people of Kansas. He loved this state and its people. He worked diligently and effectively, giving much of his life to service. God rest his Soul.

The CPC designation for Nigeria was a great accomplishment by @POTUS in the first Trump Administration. It never made sense when the last Administration dropped it and never gave an explanation for doing so. This is a great day for persecuted people of faith in #Nigeria.
"The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria, and numerous other Countries. We stand ready, willing, and able to save our Great Christian population around the World!" - PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP

Religious freedom is more than just a human rights issue. It's a national security issue. Communist China fears people of faith because they believe there is a higher power than government. It is our most potent weapon because it gives oppressed people hope. @ChinaInFocusNTD

Thanks for the meaningful and in-depth conversation, @JanJekielek. #China is guilty of multiple genocides within its own borders and exports their repression around the world. The West must confront the Chinese Communist Party, not look the other way. @AmThoughtLeader @EpochTimes
Former US Senator and Ambassador for International Religious Freedom @SamuelBrownback reveals the CCP's (and Xi's) biggest blind spot: a key vulnerability we often overlook. Can the CCP's brutal treatment of its own citizens be leveraged? Watch here! https://t.co/OA2yRX8SoW

Thanks to @RobAstorino on Saturday Agenda @NEWSMAX for covering the deadly violence against Christians in #Nigeria. The government must protect its citizens. The region is at risk of becoming a terrorist breeding ground if these killers are not stopped. https://t.co/QajAfVvsah

China's Communist Party fears anything it can't control and its war on religion finds people persecuted for their faith. Just a few weeks ago Zion Church founder and pastor Jin Mingri was arrested. China's oppression even extends beyond its borders.
washingtontimes.com
Chinese security agents swept through cities from Beijing to the coast this month, raiding the Zion Church network and detaining its founder, pastor Jin "Ezra" Mingri.

Every state should be competing to be at the top of this list from @NapaLegal. When they reach the top they should still be aiming for 100 percent. Only one state tops 70 percent and Alabama is only at 72 percent. There is still work to be done.
This is an insightful project from @NapaLegal. The great thing is that it not only ranks states on religious freedom but also the regulatory environment for religious and other nonprofit organizations. States should use this as a roadmap for improvement.

Why would anyone be surprised? It was obvious this would happen and it's obvious it will keep happening. #Gambling is a corruptive and corrosive influence on our society and institutions. The scandals will just get uglier in the future. https://t.co/PH4Q3g1FAq
