The VOC Museum teaches the violent truth about communism. That's why we are never surprised when Marxists threaten us and vandalize our schoolhouse—they want to stop our mission. Will you help us stand for freedom and educate the next generation on the evils of communism? Your support will be doubled now until midnight on May 13 thanks to a generous $100,000 matching challenge from two freedom lovers who understand that we must fight for truth against the lies of communism. Will you help us meet the $100,000 match with a donation today? Learn more and donate at: victimsofcommunism.org/lee-a…

"Americans of the past, going all the way to the American Revolution, call on all of us to render appropriate prayers, appreciation, and honor where it is due in 2026, just as Americans commemorated their service in 1926. Let us do so with enthusiasm and gratitude." -Dr. Eric Patterson, VOC President and CEO wng.org/opinions/from-armist…

“We all have the responsibility to speak up for those who do not have a voice. We must continue to pay attention to what is going on in Hong Kong.” -@frances_hui at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

“Hong Kong wants to tell the world that everything is fine, and that nothing really happened in the past six years. But as we are speaking, there are still hundreds of political prisoners behind bars.” -@frances_hui at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

“What really made Hong Kong an international city is the rule of law. What Beijing is doing to Jimmy Lai is saying that…that world does not exist anymore. ” -@frances_hui at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

“What makes Jimmy Lai’s case so symbolic is that you get to see how Hong has changed as a city through this one person’s life.” -@frances_hui at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

“Beijing put a million-dollar bounty on my head…The things that I say, the things that I do here, thousands of miles away, will impact people that I love back home. When an activist faces threats and harassment for speaking up, it’s no longer an issue of freedom for Hong Kong; it’s an issue of sovereignty. I came here seeking asylum, hoping that I would have safety and security.” -@frances_hui at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

"Just last week, Joshua Wong was sentenced to 10 more years in prison in Hong Kong. After having been imprisoned for much of his 20s, he will spend the entirety of his 30s behind bars…This is a political message being sent by Beijing that 'we are now in charge of Hong Kong and we will severely punish anyone engaging in activism against the regime.'" -@frances_hui at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

“A bigger picture, more strategic vulnerability: Part of the reason China has been so successful is because it has been a second mover. Because of its success, it will now need to figure out how to lead. Beijing might make mistakes here. And that’s something we can take advantage of.” -Emily de La Bruyère at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

“Everyone is vulnerable, and that includes the PRC…we don’t have up-to-date names of the companies in the Chinese defense industrial base. There are these very small confusion points that end up messing up our policies. These are easy fixes.” -Mishel Kondi at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…

“This is a moment when foreign companies have a responsibility to ask where their technology ends up and what it empowers. China is evading export controls, but at the same time, they are making do with chips that fall below the threshold of US controls.” -Mishel Kondi at China Forum xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2pelBWjVv…
