because they're bound to have a certain set of beliefs to be in that country but not so with us in america. you can have a belief, not have a belief. if you have one, you may live your faith. coptic christians in egypt would love to be able to live their faith and not live in fear right now. the behai in iran would love to be able to live out their faith. the christians in syria would love to be able to live out their faith and not be able to live in fear. and the multiple religiouses that try to practice in countries like china and vietnam and other places that constantly live in fear because of their own faith would love to have that. but not so in america. whether you'd be a member of congress, whether you'd be a member in the administration, whether you'd be any person walking down the streets in america, you have the right to live out your faith and it's essential for us. and it's a great value that we share, but it is essential that we also continue to protect. and in days like today, it is ironic that we're discussing again this unique value to say, can we still live out our faith a

so not just criminalization of certain populations in america, but the attempt to use military power settle the contradictions that looked to go against you. so for instance, at the same time as the world -- the pivot in asia is happening, they've decided it's time to pivot to asia and, therefore, a certain kind of, i'm not going to say dramatically, reselling of china is occurring. you can see there are lots of blogs where you can see maps of renewed u.s. military. american bases remain. i don't know if you follow this, liberal government came to power same opera novel would be closed. that government had to fall. you know, they are engineered to fall so the conservatives came back and the base was secure but this is all happening at the same time as oppression is coming on china just like america put pressure on japan. the argument is that united states is suffering not because of this neoliberalism of the country but because china's exchange rate are a problem. demand follow the exchange rates debate. china, you know, they are innocent. i have too many jokers in the back. they put
