Senator Thom Tillis (R-NC) appeared on Fox recently to discuss his work in getting the release of Pastor Andrew Brunson from house arrest in Turkey. He has been in prison for two years. Brunson has been accused of trying to overthrow the government. Erdogan, the Islamist president of Turkey refuses to let him go.
