President @FRCdc. USMC Veteran. Host of Washington Watch and This Week on Capitol Hill. Former Chair @USCIRF. Grateful husband, father, and grandfather.
The midterms were bad, but not fatal. One election does not settle the future of the American Republic. Nor does history guarantee that the next election will reverse this one.

I testified alongside Bishop Wilfred Anagbe last year, and Rep. Chris Smith is correct. The Nigerian government needs to stop its subterfuge and work to mitigate the violence against Christians and other people of faith.
Thank you for this hearing, @HouseForeignGOP.
One year after Nigeria’s “Country of Particular Concern” Designation, the situation on the ground remains largely unchanged.
Christians still face attacks and slaughter on a near-daily basis.
FRC’s new report examines the state of religious freedom in Nigeria since it received its CPC designation and outlines potential actions the United States can take to further promote religious freedom in the country.
📢 October 31, 2026, marked one year since U.S. President Donald Trump announced that Nigeria would be redesignated a “Country of Particular Concern” (CPC) regarding religious freedom.
This decision was met with approval by many individuals and advocacy organizations who care about international religious freedom and had advocated for this change, including Family Research Council.
Although we are pleased with this initial step, there is still much more work to be done.
Our NEW issue brief examines the state of religious freedom in Nigeria since it received its CPC designation and outlines potential actions the United States can take to further promote religious freedom in the country.

Russia has lost 400,000 soldiers since it invaded Ukraine; young men who could have fathered their next generation.

Thank you, @CissieGLynch for your willingness “to advocate, to defend, and fight for all who are persecuted for their faith.”
I urge the Senate to confirm your nomination as U.S. Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom.
It was an honor to appear before the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee today as the nominee to serve as Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom. This is the opening statement that I shared, and I'm grateful for my husband, Corey, who was with me, as well as all who have supported me. I want to thank everyone who has been praying for me and my family during this process. Time is short and the needs are immense, but if I am confirmed, I will do all that I can to be a fierce advocate and defender for all who are persecuted for their faith.
Our country is blessed with veterans who took an oath to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” Thank you.
And to my fellow veterans, I challenge you with this: our service is never done. The oath does not expire. Stay engaged. Stay informed. And keep standing for the foundational values that make America strong.

In this new Congress, "one thing I'm looking for is how strong are Republicans going to be on the life issue, since that was sort of taken out of the Party Platform." @CaseyHarper33
"Are Republicans going to double down there and show that Republicans really are pro-life?"
"They were amicable debates." @RepGrothman on today's House leadership elections.
"Jim Jordan won that seat; I think it is because the Republicans want a more aggressive conference than we had the last two years."
