It is sad that so many of our country's great institutions have fallen so far. I hope Katrina Lantos Swett can one day be proud again of her alma mater.

Russia's persecution of peaceful Falun Gong practitioners is the latest example of #China exporting its War on Faith and Vladimir Putin doing China's bidding. The #CCP 's hostility towards religion is becoming a global problem. Higher Ground The Washington Times

The US has great influence over #Azerbaijan but did nothing when it ethnically cleansed Armenian Christians from Nagorno-Karabakh. Department of State should accept USCIRF recommendation to list Azerbaijan as a Country of Particular Concern for religious freedom. ncregister.com/audio/register…

It is a shame that this has not been done yet. Thank you Senator Marco Rubio for urging President Biden to appoint a special advisor for international religious freedom to the National Security Council. In these challenging times that expertise is invaluable.

For #China 's Communist Party, religion is an existential threat. It is at war with all faiths but singles out the Falun Gong for the worst treatment. They are now exporting that persecution to their Axis of Evil allies. The oppression has spread to Russia.

The recommendation by USCIRF that Azerbaijan be listed as a Country of Particular Concern should be a wake-up call for the United States and Department of State that it can no longer ignore geopolitical unrest Azerbaijan is causing in the region. Save Armenia: A Judeo-Christian Alliance

The 'unlimited partnership' between China and Russia now extends to religious persecution. The #CCP hates the Falun Gong and has extended its reach into Russia. The Axis of Evil countries persecute people of faith they can't control. This must stop. theepochtimes.com/china/russia-d…

Today we remember the senseless murder of millions of Jews in the Holocaust. Let us not just remember, but learn from what happened and not repeat the mistakes of the past. We cannot tolerate antisemitism in any form, anywhere.

Sadly, the partnership that has “no limits” certainly extends to the persecution of a religious group. The Falun Gong is persecuted mercilessly by China and practitioners are victims of forced organ harvesting. Now Russia is persecuting the Falun Gong.

Debanking can happen to anybody. Sam Brownback has first hand knowledge because it happened to us. Chase closed our account without explanation. They eventually gave us one but then kept changing it. Banks reject any accountability and refuse to be transparent. #ChasedAway

Debanking people or groups because of their religious beliefs or activity is un-American. Banks must stop closing accounts and start being transparent about why. My latest column Higher Ground from the @washtimes. National Committee for Religious Freedom #ChasedAway

It is past time for Department of State to accept USCIRF's recommendation and list #Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern for religious freedom. There is far too much persecution and bloodshed for Nigeria not to be a CPC. Thousands are dying in religious-related violence every year.

Commend USCIRF for recommending #Azerbaijan be listed as a Country of Particular Concern because of its religious and ethnic cleansing in #NagornoKarabakh . Now Azerbaijan threatens invasion of its Christian neighbor, Armenia. This must be stopped!

Today is Gedhun Choekyi Nyima's 35th birthday. He is known to the world as the 11th Panchen Llama and has not been seen since he was kidnapped by #China in 1995. China should provide proof of his well-being and pledge not to interfere with the inner workings of Tibetan Buddhism.

Thanks to Armenian Ambassador Lilit Makunts for hosting a roundtable discussion on the challenges facing her country and what Americans can do to help. #Armenia is a democracy threatened by a hostile neighbor and needs help with its persecuted Christian refugees.

The world needs the UK's leadership on defending this fundamental human right. Fiona Bruce has done a great job advocating for freedom of belief for all faiths around the world. The FoRb envoy position will only be strengthened by establishing it in law. thecritic.co.uk/religious-free…

This #ArmenianGenocideRemembranceDay we must commit to making sure it never happens again. It's easy to say that but last year 120,000 Armenian Christians were displaced from their ancestral homeland by Azerbaijan aggression. Our promise to remember can't be empty words.

Proud to have my name on this letter. Thank you Speaker Mike Johnson for bringing this important bill to the House floor.

We may think this could never happen in America but the Finns probably thought it could never happen in Finland. We must always be on guard for this kind of harassment and outright hostility to religion. If we become complacent, we can lose the freedom to live our faith.
