By having its kangaroo court in Hong Kong convict media magnate Jimmy Lai of trumped-up national security charges, China has reminded the world it’s still a communist dictatorship where human dignity, let alone human rights, have no place in the regime’s considerations.

On Jimmy Lai, Trump says he asked China's Xi to consider his release. "He's an older man, and he's not well, so I did put that request out." pic.twitter.com/v7gbfJMpC5

Taiwan, take heed: China’s communist leaders would also destroy your island and take away your freedom.

China destroyed Hong Kong, even though it promised the former colonial power, Britain, and the world, it would respect its separate system for 50 years after Britain handed the city to Beijing in 1997.

The conviction of Lai under the national security law that Red China imposed on Hong Kong in 2020 is a sham. President Donald Trump should work to reverse this verdict........
