Rep. Moore to Newsmax: Trump Doing ‘Lord’s Work’ to Stop Genocide

Rep. Riley Moore, R-W.Va., on Monday praised President Donald Trump on Newsmax for doing what he called “the Lord’s work” to stop what he described as a genocide of Christians in Nigeria.

Moore told “Rob Schmitt Tonight” that Trump’s decision to designate Nigeria as a “country of particular concern” marks a crucial step toward confronting radical Islamist violence that has killed tens of thousands of Christians.

Trump wrote Saturday on Truth Social: “If the Nigerian Government continues to allow the killing of Christians, the U.S.A. will immediately stop all aid and assistance to Nigeria, and may very well go into that now disgraced country, ‘guns-a-blazing,’ to completely wipe out the Islamic Terrorists who are committing these horrible atrocities. I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action.”
