Yesterday was the National Day of the People’s Republic of China. And, in celebration of the event, officials in Philadelphia raised the flag of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) at City Hall.
Post a prayer for your state!
From the Daily Caller:
The ceremony marked the CCP’s Oct. 1 National Day and involved a co-organizer with ties to Beijing’s regime, according to The Epoch Times. The event reportedly whitewashes a violent legacy of mass killings, religious crackdowns and cultural destruction that began when Mao Zedong seized power in 1949.
Outside the event, protesters from the Tibetan Association of Philadelphia demanded the city take down the banner.
“The red flag of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is not a symbol of culture; it is the emblem of a brutal, totalitarian regime,” Tsering Jurme, president of the local association, told The Epoch Times. “This regime is responsible for the persecution and murder of millions, the destruction of thousands of monasteries, and the ongoing cultural genocide of my people in Tibet and the Uyghurs in Xinjiang. To fly their flag here in our Philadelphia city hall is to legitimize terror and betray the dissidents who seek freedom.”
Campaign for Uyghurs similarly denounced the flag raising, expressing its discontent in a letter to the city’s mayor. Rushan Abbas, the founder of the group, said the CCP flag represents “mass surveillance, forced sterilizations, and the silencing of dissent.” The Caller also notes that Abbas’ sister, Dr. Gulshan Abbas, was sentenced to 20 years in a Chinese prison.
Elected officials also criticized Philadelphia over hosting this ceremony. Representative John Moolenaar, current chair of the House Select Committee on the CCP, called the event a disgrace to the values enshrined in the Constitution. Meanwhile, Pennsylvania state Senator Doug Mastriano, a longtime friend of IFA, posted about the raising of the flag on social media, writing simply, “The cradle of liberty flying the banner of tyranny.”
This comes at a time when tension between America and China is at an all-time high. The Communist nation has infiltrated our schools, attacked our grid, and plotted with America’s enemies against us. Most recently, the Pentagon ordered American missile suppliers to increase production in preparation for a potential Chinese clash. At a time like this, should our leaders and officials really be raising the CCP’s flag over government buildings?
As tensions continue to rise, let’s pray that China and its corrupt government would have no influence over America!

It’s an absolute disgrace! It’s a slap in the face to all those who have been controlled, martyred, depressed by the CCP! Whoever made the decision to raise their flag in Philadelphia should be let go from their position. It has no place in America.
Fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom
If politicians glorify and honor the ccp let them leave the us and”live there
God save America from tyranny. Keep it free! No CCP FLAGS ON OUR ONCE FREE NATION! Pray 🙏
This is clearly TREASON. Christians all over the U.S. need to WAKE UP. You cannot just go about your daily lives and not care about what is going on in this country.
Being a Christian is about action and standing up for what is RIGHT. it is not enough to go to church. We must engage in our communities and take.back our cities and states from the communist thugs who think they are in control. It is reprehensible that the CCP flag would be raised on AMERICAN SOIL, and no one cares. No one gets arrested, for anything.
The Democrat Reps and Senators shut down the government because they are communist traitors who want funding for ILLEGAL ALIENS. They celebrate Hamas. They hate America. Please wake up, Christians.
Psychopaths think you have it coming for allowing them to do their thing!
Think about that!!!
Life is not precious to a Communist; but we disagree in America!
God is a joke to a Communist; but not to a godly American!
Being permissive to a dangerous, ungodly entity (no matter what it calls itself)
is asking for all that has value and merit to be stolen from us; and flagging a lie
as having value is asking for death. Satan’s agenda: Steal, Lie, Kill!!!
Lo, I have told you!!!
Those who are flying flags, etc of another country, recognizing and ‘honoring’ them as in the article above, anywhere in my country, USA, are traitors and needed to be executed.
Our Founding Fathers would have delt with this immediately!
ALL those individuals who are in this country, whose sole purpose is to do everything possible to destroy my country need to be removed ASAP or eliminated.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!!! We must stop dragging our feet and ACT NOW!!!!
For the sake of our children, grandchildren and great grand children!!!
Oh, Heavenly Father! Have mercy on us. Return our nation to the godly foundations it was established on. Drive out totalitarian influences. Release a recognition of the truth and acceptance of it, I pray!
Be safe conservatives 🙏🇺🇸❤️👍
Thank You, YHVH, for the voices raised against this affront to those slaughtered in the past and still in this present time by the evil regime of the CCP. Why would a man who’s own sister was imprisoned by them, raise their flag – is he so sick that he celebrates the regime that tortured her?
YHVH, please grant us the return of sanity and reason to our nation, and voices that are stating it strongly and without apology.
Lord, may you cause the fall of the CCP and replace it with a compassionate government. Amen
Some one should be fired for doing this. Possibly charges of treason should be put against the responsible person for doing such a thing as flying a foreign flag on a government building or property. This is a sign that the home land has been defeated by the enemy.
It is indeed a sign of a sickness, Betty. I my heart I know, however, that the sickness is not quite so widespread or all-encompassing as the “Enemy Within” would like to believe – so be of brave heart and Fly “Old Glory” for ALL to see and take heart from.
Take away all of PA ‘S Government Money. It’s unamerican and a slop in the face to all who serviced this country and does that paid the ultimate price protecting this country.
it was the Philadelphia city government that raised the flag, not the government of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Dear Abba,
As our Creator, You welcome us into a relationship with You, You do not force yourself upon us. As the expansive continents of the world have become populated, different cultures evolved. Only You know how and what these mean or how they have evolved.
It is my understanding that You have created governments to provide social structure. We need this until Jesus returns at which time there will be no need for societal rules for His reign will be perfect and eternal.
Until that time, You have allowed the creation of governments. In this United States of America, we have embraced Your providential hand in our establishment and have written the Pledge of Allegiance. There are those in our midst who do not, can not pledge their allegiance to these United States of America. Thus they should not be a resident of this country and should depart to a place and government to which they pledge their allegiance. Please help them depart peaceably to the place at which they can flourish in that culture, ideology and faith environment. Please stop their hateful and contamination on these United States of America.
Amen!
amen to thos petit I an. Raised to a Holy and invinsible God and creator of the universe. I agree wholey and fully. In the mighty name of Yeshua. Amen
