The Washington Stand’s Casey Harper reports on the Homeland Security Committee hearing on DHS Funding, the Senate’s debate over the SAVE America Act, and the deployment of 3,000 troops to the Middle East as Iran rejects the U.S. peace proposal. Josh Brecheen, U.S. Representative for Oklahoma’s 2nd District, explores growing criticism from both sides of the political aisle regarding the breakdown over DHS funding negotiations, whether the deployment of ICE to the airports is helping, and the status of the SAVE America Act.

Bob Fu, Founder and President of China Aid Association and FRC’s Senior Fellow for International Religious Freedom, shares how the Chinese Communist Party is now targeting the attorneys of the pastors jailed by the CCP and provides an update on the imprisoned church leaders and their families. Ilan Berman, Senior Vice President for the American Foreign Policy Council, offers insight into President Trump’s 15-point plan to end the Iranian conflict, explains why Turkey and Pakistan are facilitating indirect talks, and raises concerns expressed by Israel and Gulf Arab countries over an eagerness to strike an Iranian peace deal prematurely.
