As part of President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, which was signed on July 4, Medicaid funding previously funneled into Planned Parenthood and its affiliates was put on hold for one year. This measure, aimed at redirecting taxpayer dollars away from organizations that carry out elective abortions, was hailed by pro-life advocates as a step in the right direction in safeguarding unborn lives. Unsurprisingly, abortion activists were not keen on the legislation.
The Trump administration on Wednesday unveiled sweeping new visa restrictions aimed at foreign nationals implicated in the surge of brutal anti-Christian violence in Nigeria–marking one of Washington’s strongest responses yet to what U.S. officials describe as escalating religious persecution in Africa’s most populous nation.
A growing number of American adults feel political violence can be at least partially justified in some circumstances, per a recent survey conducted by the Network Contagion Research Institute and Rutgers University’s Social Perception Lab. The survey concluded failure to “explicitly confront and condemn” assassination culture would result in “real-world escalation.”
"Do you support Israel because you want Jesus to come back?” I had been asked this question a handful of times before by Jewish friends but never in this setting. Riding on a tour bus through Poland, I was the only Gentile and, as far as I know, the only follower of Jesus on the bus. We were all part of an educational trip on the Holocaust. He was seated next to me on the bus when he asked me the question. The man went on to explain that the evangelicals he knows told him they support Israel and want the Jewish people to return to the land because they believe doing so will hasten Jesus’ return. He was understandably dubious of Christians like myself who say they support Israel.
“This simple and life-saving treatment gives unborn children a second chance at life and saves mothers from forever living with the consequences of an abortion. Thanks to the amazing work of the Abortion Pill Rescue Network and pregnancy resource centers, thousands of children are alive today who would not otherwise be,” Stockbauer said. “I pray that God will use the evil intentions of pro-abortion radicals for good, using their efforts to restrict abortion pill reversal as a means to inform even more women about its existence.”
Youth pastors are allowed to visit students during lunch hour in Bossier Parish, Louisiana – but the school district has set up some mighty strict parameters. Clergy are allowed to talk about sports, the weather or the latest hot movie craze – but they are not allowed to talk about Jesus.
Banned in several red states, CRT is often described by those holding more progressive worldviews as an academic framework meant to examine “systemic racism.” Critics, however, would classify it as an ideological agenda that promotes racism — hence why many Republican-led states have taken steps to keep it out of their school curricula. Yet, a new report from the conservative Foundation for Freedom Online (FF) warns that CRT is quietly sneaking its way back in through the “media literacy” campaign.
“Andy is hanging on. And he is a fighter, and his family has told me that, time and time again, he is a fighter,” Moore added. “But above all, what they want here is for everybody to continue to pray. I believe in the power of prayer, and I can promise you his parents believe in the power of prayer. . . . Please keep praying.”
“These results are stunning. What we are seeing is the early emergence of an AI strongman mentality among younger Americans. Younger generations are increasingly disillusioned with the failures of traditional institutions, so much so, that they are willing to hand control to artificial intelligence... These poll results illustrate an incredibly dangerous trajectory for any society that values personal autonomy and liberty."
Drawing a crowd of prospective immigrants, none of them probably expected to be confronted by a group of 200 angry demonstrators who shouted vile and crude statements including, “globalize the intifada,” “death to the IDF” and another one too vulgar to write, but directed at Jews, not Israel.
Despite LifeWise meeting all the necessary criteria, the school district has created obstacles for families who want their children to be in the program. Some of these hurdles include prohibiting LifeWise from participating in community events and displaying its flyers. It also requires LifeWise students to conceal any written materials they receive from the program in a sealed envelope in their backpacks.
The poll found that Americans’ positive view of capitalism has declined to just 54% while the positive view of socialism has increased to 39%. In fact, 66% of Democrats now favor socialism, a 16% jump since 2010. Another survey found that young people — the eternal arbiters of “cool” — favor socialism more than the average American. A Cato/YouGov poll found that among those aged 30 and under, 62% favor socialism and 34% favor communism. Socialism is undoubtedly in style.
Four Christian brick-kiln workers have been abducted in Pakistan’s Punjab province after demanding the payment of their lawful wages from their Muslim employer, investigators told Worthy News Wednesday.
The Department of Justice and FBI Director Kash Patel announced in October it is terminating all association with the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) because of its “Hate Map” that targets Christian and conservative organizations.
