Opening and National News Roundup 0:00 Hello. I'm Tony Perkins, president of Family Research Council and host of Washington Watch. Thanks for tuning in. Every day, we offer a biblical perspective on the news as well as insightful interviews with elected0:11 leaders, newsmakers, and culture experts. We have a great program planned for you today, but first, get up to speed on the top headlines with Washington Stan's news brief.0:26 Welcome to the Washington Stan news brief. I'm Casey Harper bringing you today's big stories. President Donald Trump said that the United States has an armada heading towards Iran. The president0:38 added, quote, maybe we won't have to use it. That's reassuring, I guess. Well, it certainly turns up the pressure on the already destabilized Islamic regime. President Trump once again warned0:50 Iran's leaders against killing protesters or restarting their nuclear program. Now this all comes, of course, as Iran has faced ongoing protests to which it responded by killing thousands.1:02 The president appeared on the verge of a military strike on the country earlier this month, but he held off when Iran promised to stop executing protesters and other nations in the region urged caution.1:13 Now, however, activists alleged Iran has killed over 5000 demonstrators. Reports indicate that an aircraft carrier and several guided missile destroyers from the US will arrive in the Middle1:25
1:37 funding to the Department of Homeland Security given the controversy surrounding ICE in Minneapolis. But 7 Democrats voted for with Republicans to save the ICE funding. Notably, this
1:49 time, Congress actually passed traditional appropriations bills instead of the mammoth but short term continuing resolutions that had become the norm on Capitol Hill.
1:59 There were a lot of people, and I think many in this room, that, that they argued that this could not be done, that that, a regular appropriations process is a thing of the past. And, you know, it's been a couple decades
2:10 since this has happened. Critics said our margins were too slim to bring it back, to rebuild that muscle memory that I committed to when I became speaker. And they said we had too many bills left to pass and too many
2:20 disagreements left to reconcile, but I'm happy to report that all of those prognostications were flat wrong, and we've gotten it done. And the most significant sign of progress in these halls in years, House Republicans
2:32 are restoring regular order. And it's important to the people that we represent because this is the only way to have, good fiscal sanity and and and responsibility and stewardship over taxpayer dollars is to
2:43 return to regular order.
2:45 That 20 26 funding legislation would prevent a government shutdown at the end of this month. It now heads to the senate. Now for our last story, pro life Americans took to the streets of
2:57 Washington DC today to make clear 1 message, abortion is wrong and it needs to end. The marchers' simple message that God opposes taking life in the womb comes with a set of
3:09 policy recommendations. That includes the Hyde Amendment, which blocks taxpayer dollars from going to abortions, as well as restrictions on the abortion pill, mifepristone, which now accounts for 63
3:21 percent of abortions. Vice president JD Vance addressed the marchers in a speech today.
3:27 But let me today say that I am especially grateful for all of you, even the ones with Michigan hats. There are a couple of you out there.
3:41 For the thousands of men and women and children, for the church groups, the school groups, the grandparents, and the toddlers, and everyone in between who braved this chilly
3:52 Washington afternoon. All of us all of us in the Trump administration, from the president on down, we thank you for your prayers. We thank you for your perseverance, and we thank you that for today,
4:04 we are all marching for life.
4:13 President Trump also spoke to the several thousand demonstrators gathered in the nation's capital via a recorded message. He called protecting the unborn a battle that must be won. But whether president Trump heeds the
4:25 protesters calls today on the abortion pill remains to be seen. And that is today's news. I'm Casey Harper. You can dive deeper at the Washington Stand, which is Family Research Council's outlet for
4:37 news and commentary from a biblical worldview. And we are back next week with more stories that matter.
March for Life: Celebrating and Advancing Pro-Life Momentum
4:52 From the heart of our nation's capital in Washington DC, bringing compelling interviews, insightful analysis, taking you beyond the headlines and sound bites into conversations with our nation's leaders and
5:03 newsmakers, all from a biblical worldview. Sitting in for Tony is today's host, Jody Heiss.
5:10 The work to rebuild a culture that supports life continues in every state, every community, and every part of our beautiful land. This is a battle that must be fought, must be won, not
5:22 only in the card as a power, but above all in the hearts and souls of the people.
5:29 That was president Trump delivering a message to March for Life participants earlier today. Welcome to this January 20 third edition of Washington Watch. I'm your Friday host,
5:41 Jody Heise. And thank you so much for joining us. Alright. Coming up this week has been a very good week for the pro life movement culminating with today's march for life.
5:53 Yesterday, the National Institutes of Health, also known as NIH, announced a new policy ending the funding of research that involves aborted baby tissue. I'll
6:05 discuss this later in the program with doctor David Prentice, an internationally renowned expert in stem cell research and therapies. An engagement between the United States
6:17 and Nigeria has reportedly accelerated since president Trump redesignated Nigeria as a country of particular concern late last, October,
6:29 and that took place over the severe religious freedom violations in that country. We'll be discussing this later with Brad Brandon of across Nigeria. So all this and much
6:41 more is coming straight ahead. Today, thousands and thousands of people gathered in Washington DC
6:53 for the 20 third annual March for Life. President Trump delivered a prerecorded remark, a video, that was shown at the event. He's vowing to protect the unborn. Also,
7:05 vice president JD Vance, along with speaker of the house, Mike Johnson, delivered strong messages defending life. Joining me now is Washington stand reporter,
7:17 Casey Harper, who has been following all of today's stories. Casey, let's start with this 1. Can you walk us through the events of the day?
7:25 Sure, Jody. I, went with the rest of the Family Research Council family down to the march today, where I saw thousands of protesters. A lot of young people really stood out to me carrying banners, signs, all with the
7:36 same message, supporting life. Now as you mentioned, president Trump, he promised attendees protecting life is a battle that must be fought and won. Now he does still face a lot of pressure for many of
7:48 those pro life attendees to put restrictions on the abortion pill. Now vice president JD Vance, as you showed that clip, he spoke. Here's a clip of what he had to say.
7:58 Let me just say, my friends, that we have to be clear. We cannot be neutral. Our country cannot be indifferent about whether its next generations live or die. You march
8:10 today. We march today because you have an answer to this question about what kind of civilization we are and about what kind of civilization we're gonna become in the future.
8:22 Powerful words from the vice president. Now at the rally, there were many pro life groups and Republican lawmakers, including house speaker Mike Johnson, who highlighted that some of the efforts of the House of
8:32 Representatives on pro life initiatives that they've gotten done. Here is the speaker.
8:38 With president Trump and president vice president Vance, the Republican team is making and taking a new approach. For the first time, our greatest metric of success is not just the size of the
8:50 gross domestic product or highs in the stock market. It is the strength of the American family again. That's what we've brought back. That's what we've brought back.
9:01 Now as we celebrate life and the protection of it this week, the House of Representatives actually just passed the last government funding bills for the year, and among them were 2 pro life bills. 1 is the Supporting
9:11 Pregnant and Parenting Women and Families Act, which will offer services and resources to mothers and families including counseling, education, pregnancy testing, diapers, and baby clothes. Now the other bill, the
9:23 Pregnant Students Rights Act, will mean that colleges that receive federal student aid will be required to inform their students about the rights and resources available to carry a baby to term. So a lot of pro life
9:35 news happening today, Jody.
9:37 A lot of pro life news and, boy, it's exciting. Thank you so much, Casey.
9:41 Thanks, At
9:42 the March for Life today, Washington stand reporter Sarah Holliday was also there, and she was able to speak with congressman Michael Cloud and Andrew Clyde along with pro life
9:54 leader Ryan Bomburger. Take a look.
9:57 I am Sarah Holliday, Washington State reporter. As you can see, we are gathered here today for the annual 50 third annual March for Life. It's a cold day, but it hasn't stopped thousands of people from
10:09 coming all around the world to celebrate the values that we hold dear, with that being life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. I've spoken with people here on the ground and several members of congress who are all
10:20 here to rally behind the same cause, that life matters, life is worth protecting, and that the fight is not over. It's in the birth certificate
10:32 While the, life issue certainly has been front and center today and in many regards all week, there's some other things that have been happening as well this week. President
10:44 Trump's efforts to acquire Greenland, for example, which he says is under threat from Russia and China and which Denmark cannot secure, from these dangers. So
10:56 European leaders have, pushed back against those efforts, but are they in reality ignoring a very real threat?
11:11 Fellow at the Gates Stone Institute and author of Plan Red China's Project to Destroy America. And we always encourage you to follow him on x. You can do so under the
11:22 handle Gordon g Chang. Gordon, welcome back to Watch and Watch. Always an honor to have you.
11:29 It's always an honor to talk to you, Jody. So thank you.
11:33 Well, listen. We've got a lot going on here, but, let's look at this, Greenland deal. Are the concerns of European leaders, misplaced, do you think?
11:43 Well well, certainly, European leaders were more focused on their hatred for president Trump and their anger rather than on their national interest. And they've got to realize that their job is to protect their
11:55 countries, and they don't have an alliance with Trump. They have an alliance with the United States. And the United States is, and they know this. The United States is the only power that can protect Greenland and
12:07 Canada and the Arctic from increasing Chinese and Russian activity because we've seen a noticeable increase in what the Beijing and Moscow are doing up there, not only with their commercial
12:18 activities, but also with their military flybys and with their naval patrols.
12:26 So when we look at what the president has done and I would include in that both this term as well as the last, I don't think there's any question that he is focused on what's doing what's
12:37 good for America. But in that process alone, I think what he's done is also been good for other nations. Like those in Europe. What what do
12:47 you think? Oh, certainly. America first is also, really good for Europe. Got to remember that NATO general secretary, Mark Rutte, last month said that NATO has never been
12:59 stronger, and he was saying it because of what president Trump did. And he was focusing on Trump getting the organization's members to commit to spend at least 5 percent of their gross domestic product on their
13:10 militaries. That was something which was considered almost impossible just a couple years ago, but Trump by threatening and by actually, doing a number of things that irritated the European
13:22 leaders, nonetheless, got them to do what's important for their own interests and, of course, for us as well because it is collective defense right now against militant China and Russia. So what Trump has done has been
13:34 great for Europe.
13:37 Yeah. I I think that's a point that needs to be communicated. Do you think the European leaders really understand that? And as you said a while ago, their real issue is they don't
13:48 particularly like Trump or I mean, certainly, they're not gonna walk away from their own national security over a relationship that they don't like.
13:59 No. They're not gonna walk away from the United States. You know, if you look at Europe, it was in an almost terminal slumber. You know, Russia had invaded Ukraine twice, 2014 and 20 22,
14:11 and Europe was still incapable of mounting an effective defense. So really what has happened is this is a problem about Europe, and there are many, many issues in Europe right now. Some of them
14:22 discussed in the national security strategy of the United States, which was released last month, and others as well. So, really, what Trump has done is he's forced the Europeans to start to take more active interest in
14:34 their own defense and in protecting, places like Ukraine. So this has been very good for the West. Western leaders in Europe, they don't quite understand it. At least they don't say that in
14:46 public, but I think in private, they do because they know they need the United
14:49 States to protect them, and they know that, both sides
14:50 of the Atlantic need United States to protect them, and they know that, both sides of the Atlantic need each other.
14:56 Yep. I think that's a very good point, and I I would agree with you. There's been a lot of discussion about the so called Dunroe doctrine. What what's your take on that?
15:08 Well, president Trump clearly has revived the Monroe doctrine. He did that in his first term and clearly in the national security strategy. He's made it clear that the United States will not tolerate
15:20 malign foreign interference in this region. And that's good because we need to get the Chinese, the Russians, and the Iranians out of Latin America and away from our borders. But, you know, a lot of
15:32 people make a mistake. They think that because president Trump has said that, that he is abandoning Europe and Asia to a Chinese sphere of influence and a Russian 1 in Europe. But, no, people need to read the national
15:43 security strategy because it makes it very clear that the United States wants Europe to be strong to protect its own interests, and it certainly does not want China to close off East Asia. So this is really good foreign
15:55 policy. People in who've been criticizing the national security strategy actually need to read it because what they say in public bears very little relation to what the Trump administration has been declaring.
16:08 Yep. Absolutely. You've mentioned China a couple of times. So while I have you, there's been reports of a wave of arrests of Chinese military officers,
16:20 coordinated by the, Chinese Ministry of Public Security. What's going on there?
16:26 I would like to know along with, everybody else outside China and a few people inside China. But Zhang Yochao, who is the number 1 uniform officer, the number 1 vice chairman of the
16:38 Communist Party Central Military Commission, is reported to have been arrested. Some people think he's merely sidelined. Some people think that he will retire in March. We really don't know, but it's
16:50 him and about 17 others. And that raises the question, is anybody in control of China's military right now? Because it appears that with so many people taken out of chains
17:01 of command, that maybe nobody is running the world's biggest military, the People's Liberation Army.
17:09 Very concerning. So real quickly, we've only got a little over a minute here. What does this development suggest to you? What do you what's kind of the bigger picture?
17:20 Communist party is in turmoil. Xi Jinping hasn't controlled it. These purges have gone on for years, and he's still not accomplished what he set out to do. And that means China is not stable.
17:34 And that obviously has impacts around the world. For what? For good or bad? Is this a good thing you think taking place or a dangerous thing?
17:43 We will only know. You know, it means certain things like it's unlikely that China will start hostilities by launching an invasion of the main island of Taiwan because the Chinese military is not capable of that. But the
17:54 Chinese military and Xi Jinping are capable of blundering into war. And when you have such a big country unstable, we will only know after it is over. And there's some pretty bad things that could happen
18:05 because of this.
18:07 Wow. It's, absolutely incredible what's happening all around the world, and, I wanna thank you, Gordon Chang, senior fellow at the Gates Stone Institute. It is always our privilege to have
18:19 you on the program and help you unfold a lot of complicated issues happening around the globe. As always, thank you, sir, for joining us today on Washington Watch.
18:28 Well, it's been my privilege to talk to you, Jody. So thank you.
18:32 Alright. Okay, friends. Coming up, the US and Nigeria have reportedly made some tremendous strides in their partnership to better protect vulnerable communities there in Nigeria.
18:44 So what could this mean for Christians? Well, stay tuned. We'll discuss it next.
18:53 We have state leaders that wanna keep the deadly drugs out of their states. Maybe if these abortion pills were coming by boat, the administration would change its tactics. It's time to respect the rights, the
19:04 states, and it's time to end death by mail.
19:09 Family Research Council president Tony Perkins, alongside senator Lindsey Graham, led a press conference on Capitol Hill, urging the Trump administration to end the Biden era policies that have
19:21 allowed dangerous abortion drugs to be shipped across state lines. They were joined by state attorneys general, pro life advocates, and multiple Republican congressmen.
19:31 There are more abortions today in the United States than when Roe versus Wade was the law of the land. And why is that? It's because of the chemical abortion drug mifepristone. Nearly 70 percent of the abortions that are
19:42 committed in the United States today are committed because of mifepristone.
19:46 The federal government is allowing a chemical abortion pill to be sent through the mail that wipes out every state unborn protection law in the land.
19:56 It's harder to ship alcohol in this country than it is to ship the abortion pill, and that should never
20:01 be the case. This is a drug that takes the life of every child, so there is always a death that's involved in this drug, but is also incredibly dangerous for the mom as well. We think that we should require a doctor to
20:13 be able to get access to this drug.
20:14 As a doctor, I think it's essential that there be human contact before the pill is prescribed.
20:21 It's not about a national abortion ban. It's about validating Dobbs and preventing other states from nullifying the legislative policy choices that have been made by our states and facilitating
20:33 the illegal, unethical, and dangerous drug trafficking of abortion pills into our states without any medical oversight whatsoever.
20:42 We can simply fix this if we have the courage to do it. So what are all of us telling the administration? You've been a great pro life president, mister president. It's now time to deal with this
20:54 issue. We wanna protect life,
20:56 and we want to give voice to the American people and their right to protect life state by state, city by city, and, yes, here in the United States Congress. That's what this fight is about.
21:07 Let your voice be heard. Text life to 6 7 7 4 2. Sign the petition. Tell the Trump administration to act.

Global Challenges: Foreign Policy and Persecution of Christians
21:54 You're tuned in to Washington Watch. Thank you so much for joining us today. I am Jody Heise, your Friday host, and we are honored to have you with us as well. Engagement between
22:06 the United States and Nigeria has reportedly accelerated since president Trump redesignated Nigeria as a country of particular concern late October over
22:18 the severe religious freedom violations in that country. And the US Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs, Allison Hooker is currently in Nigeria. In fact,
22:30 she met with government officials yesterday. And after that, she said the u the US and Nigeria have made tremendous strides together in our partnership to better protect
22:42 vulnerable communities in Nigeria. Well, so could Nigeria be nearing a turning point? Joining me now to discuss this is Brad Brandon. He's
22:54 the founder and CEO of Across Nigeria who actively serves in foreign mission fields, including high risk, highly persecuted areas like that
23:05 in Northern Nigeria. Brad, welcome back to Washington Watch. Great to have you with us.
23:11 Thanks, Jody. Good to be on with you.
23:15 Well, listen. While while under secretary Hooker's remarks are certainly encouraging and very much welcome, there's even been more violence against Christians in
23:26 Nigeria as recent as this week with the kidnapping of some hundred and 70 people from a church. So if you would walk us through the serious danger
23:38 that Nigerian Christians are currently facing.
23:42 Yeah. So if you take all the Christians in the entire world that were killed in 20 25, 70 percent 72 percent of them were killed in Northern Nigeria. So this is a serious
23:53 problem. More Christians are killed in Northern Nigeria than anywhere else in the world. 60000 Christians have been killed since 2009, and there's 3500000.0 people in
24:05 IDP camps, internally displaced persons camps. Means that their homes have been destroyed by the violence. Their villages have been burned by the violence. They've been left with nowhere to go to but to be thrust into
24:17 the horrible conditions of these IDP camps where there's shortage of food, shortage of clean drinking water, medical medical care, and the essentials for life. The camps
24:28 are horrible. I've been to thousands of these camps, and the conditions are horrendous. And and that's the conditions that the Christians that survive, that live through the attacks, are often thrust in in
24:40 into those IDP camps and into those conditions. They're second class citizens. Most of Northern Nigeria is controlled by Sharia law. Under Sharia law, under the blasphemy doctrines,
24:52 if you're a Muslim and you convert to Christianity or you're from a a Muslim family and you convert to Christianity, that is a crime punishable by death. And we often go in and extract
25:04 people out of those situations because their lives are under imminent threat. So that's some of the conditions that Christians are living in Northern Nigeria right now.
25:15 It really is a horrifying situation. And yet in the midst of the reality, the, Nigerian national security adviser, Nuhu Rabado, said that their government
25:26 there in Nigeria remains committed to strengthening justice for affected communities. So based on what you're seeing and hearing what you just shared with us, are there some
25:38 specific areas where the Nigerian justice system is currently failing to protect those who are facing religious, persecution?
25:48 I question that commitment. I don't see any areas where they are striving to do anything. It I've been working in these conditions for 10 years. This genocide has been happening for over 15
25:59 years. They don't even admit that there's a genocide or a targeting of Christians happening in Northern Nigeria. In fact, it was the foreign affairs minister of Nigeria who just
26:11 recently said that nothing could be further from the truth that Christians are being targeted. Well, I've seen it. I've lived it. I've stood at the mass graves of friends of mine who've been buried. I've
26:23 carried the bodies of friends of mine who've been killed, pastors who work for our organization. They outright admit that they're they're deny that there is a Christian persecution.
26:35 And, if you can't admit it, then you can't condemn it. And how can you help Christians in Northern Nigeria when you're not even willing to admit that they're being targeted? So I strongly quest question,
26:47 this commitment that they have to helping Christian communities.
26:51 So what do you think when our undersecretary, Allison Hooker, says that tremendous strides are being made? Do does that bring you some encouragement?
27:04 What what are you hoping ultimately comes of the talks that are taking place between the US and the Nigerian government?
27:13 I think the Nigerian government is very good at snowing people and making them think something is happening when it's not. I've seen it happen for the last 10 years. I've seen it time and time
27:24 again. What they're interested in according to the affair foreign affairs, minister of, the Republic of Nigeria is they're interested in investors, and they're trying to clean up
27:36 their image right now because foreign investors are running from them as fast as they can. So they need to clean up their image so that they can attract foreign investors back into the country. That's what
27:48 the foreign affairs minister has said. Yousef, Tughar said that just in in, December, 20 second, made that very statement that they were more worried about the image of Nigeria
28:00 because it's, it's, chasing away investors. So what they're trying to do is change that image. They're not actually trying to do anything on the ground, at least anything of substance that I've
28:12 ever seen.
28:14 So from your perspective, this from Nigeria's perspective, not certainly not from the US perspective, but from Nigeria's perspective, this is all about optics. So with with this, let me just last
28:26 question. How would you encourage our viewers and our listeners right now to be praying for Nigeria and the the people, particularly the Christians there?
28:37 Well, our organization not only helps persecuted Christians in Northern Nigeria, but we go into areas that are controlled by Boko Haram and Iswa, which is the ISIS of West Africa. And,
28:49 1 of the tenants of our organization is to bring the gospel into those areas. So I always encourage people pray that God would open the hearts of Muslims in that
29:01 region. The gospel of Jesus Christ is the answer, and that is the solution to the problem. Government intervention by the US can help. Certainly, institutions can help. All of that
29:13 can help. But the ultimate solution is the gospel of Jesus Christ. So I encourage Christians in the US to pray that God would open a and only God can open a heart. We learned that in
29:25 the book of Acts when when he opened the heart of Lydia, Paul preached the gospel. She came to Christ. Governments
29:32 came to Christ.
29:32 We're gonna have to end it there. Brad Brandon, founder and CEO of Across Nigeria, thank you. The gospel of Jesus Christ is indeed the answer both there and here.
29:45 We've got some great news to share with you from the pro life front. We'll get to that after the break.
29:52 For over 4000 years, the Jewish people have had legal, historical, and biblical ties to the land of Israel, especially the heartland of Israel, Judea and Samaria, which much of the world still calls the West Bank.
30:05 To Israelis, Judea and Samaria is far more than a name. It's the center of their ancestral homeland where nearly 80 percent of the Bible's events took place. Abraham purchased property in Hebron, Jacob in
30:17 Shechem. Joshua made an altar on Mount Ebal and led the Israelites into a covenant before God. On Mount Gerizim overlooking Shechem, Jesus talked to the Samaritan woman at the well about worshiping neither on
30:28 Mount Gerizim nor in Jerusalem, but in spirit and in truth. Judea and Samaria is nearly a quarter of Israel's current land mass, not a small strip of land on the Jordan River, but a
30:40 vital and strategic part of the nation's identity. The October seventh massacre launched from Gaza shattered the illusion that giving away territory brings peace. Gaza, which was
30:52 once seen as the cornerstone of a 2 state solution, became a launchpad for terror. Today, only 21 percent of Israelis support a Palestinian state. Trust in a 2 state solution
31:04 has all but collapsed. The Middle East is changing. Iran's grip is weakening. New alliances are forming, but western countries and some US officials still chase the mirage of a 2 state solution.
31:16 History speaks clearly. The 2005 Gaza withdrawal, backed by the US, led not to peace, but to a terrorist regime. Judea and Samaria are 24 times larger than Gaza,
31:28 deeply woven into Israel's geographic and spiritual fabric. To surrender them would not bring peace. It would invite conflict and existential danger. Family Research Council stands with Israel's
31:40 rightful claim to sovereignty. It's time for America to do the same for history, for justice, and for lasting security in the Middle East.
31:55 Good afternoon. Welcome back to Washington Watch. I'm your Friday host, Jody Heiss, and we are so grateful to have you tuning in. Alright. Yesterday, the National Institutes ofShow more
