Pastor Andrew Brunson, a fine gentleman and Christian leader in the United States, is on trial and being persecuted in Turkey for no reason. They call him a Spy, but I am more a Spy than he is. Hopefully he will be allowed to come home to his beautiful family where he belongs!

but maybe we can make an exception here.

... dont retweet him. Think of Trump as a puppeteer, his tweets as the strings, and anyone who retweets/shares him as the puppet, he writes. Cut the damn strings!

I have NO knowledge of anything, other than the charges leveled against him. It's worth remembering that, under the Patriot Act, even feeding a parking meter for the wrong person can make you a terrorist.
OK, that might be an exaggeration, but only by degree, not concept.

However, you're already a source, so take pride in that.
