Summary
Christians were being discriminated against by government policies, according to a new report from the Trump administration, which investigated policies and how they impacted people of faith.
Meanwhile, Americans are being told to expect more immigration operations at businesses that have been hiring illegal immigrants. This follows a recent operation that found 300 illegal immigrants working at a Hyundai factory in Georgia.
And on another topic, President Donald Trump has given the military broad powers to respond if Venezuela strikes a U.S. ship. This comes amid a large U.S. military deployment in the Caribbean to tackle cartels and the drug trade. The Venezuelan leader alleged last week that the United States is seeking “regime change through military threat.”
We’ll discuss these topics and others, in this episode of Crossroads.
