Shawn Carney, CEO of 40 Days for Life, said that the law is “designed to scare people of faith off the sidewalks outside abortion facilities by creating the constant threat of prosecution and costly lawsuits,” because prayer, holding a sign, or offering a woman help could be seen as intimidation or coercion.

After decades of cover-ups, union protection rackets, and official indifference, the U.S. Department of Education is finally admitting that government schools are infested with sexual predators preying on captive children. In some of the strongest official comments to date, U.S. Secretary Linda McMahon vowed a nationwide crackdown on teachers, staff, and other adults in positions of authority who sexually abuse and harass students. Speaking Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” McMahon made clear that the horrors documented by The Newman Report and others for years cannot continue. “This epidemic of nationwide sexual abuse in our schools must end,” she said.
That’s the question an article in The Economist is asking as it highlights boutique IVF clinics, part of a “burgeoning industry aspir[ing] to reshape the way humans are made” by allowing parents to screen their embryos for IQ, height, and eye color. These start-ups are front and center in the commodification of children, turning human beings into products so wealthy parents can—according to their advertising on the New York subway—“have [their] best baby.” Children are not commodities or products to be genetically manipulated according to adult desires. Children are people, made in the image of God with inherent dignity and value right from fertilization.
In a school honoring a creationist, young-earth creationism cannot be taught. The James Irwin Charter Middle School in Colorado Springs, Colorado, was planning to include “intelligent design” and “creationist theory” alongside evolution in its eighth-grade science curriculum, according to a parent’s report to the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF). FFRF is an atheistic organization that opposes religion, especially Christianity. After receiving the complaint, the FFRF wrote a letter to the charter school on March 5, 2026, demanding that they teach only evolution.
People across social media have joined online to support Clancy, and about 300 women and a few men protested on Aug. 20 outside the courthouse where Clancy is being prosecuted. The group’s pink shirts had messages such as “Believe,” “She Needed Help” and “Peace for Lindsay” inscribed on them. Allie Beth Stuckey, a Christian commentator, weighed in on the “pro-Lindsay” movement and the high-profile case, expressing that one’s state of mind does not excuse murdering children. “We can have grace for people’s struggles—postpartum and otherwise—without excusing or minimizing the methodical murder of children,”
“It will not desist from expressing the view—shared by tens of millions of Americans and by the pro-life movement your clients have made careers of publicly opposing—that abortion takes the life of a living human being and is accurately described as ‘killing,’” the letter said. “Live Action will not delete its archive, will not retract protected opinion, and will not submit its future coverage of public figures, public lawsuits, public convention speeches, and public political campaigns to your pre-clearance.”
The guidance is important because, although it is not a statutory code, the EHRC says it may be used as evidence in legal proceedings, as it has been in the past. The first and most obvious problem is the guidance’s treatment of Christianity; essentially demonizing Christian belief. The cumulative message is difficult to miss. Christian or traditional religious convictions concerning sex and marriage are repeatedly presented as likely to be expressed poorly and is therefore the only significant problem to be controlled. The message is that Christians are the ones who must be restrained.
The ongoing fight over transgender athletes playing women's sports has apparently claimed another victim. Seattle Times sports columnist Matt Calkins left the paper after editors reportedly rejected a piece about young activists opposed to biological males in spaces reserved for actual females, particularly in athletics.
The Parliament Act offers the proposers of this terrible law an opportunity to bypass the intense scrutiny it deserves. The entire existence of Dignity in Dying hinges on this bill, and a brazen approach to use this act allows them to get away with a poor bill becoming law. And do any of us really think the fight will end there? Nearly everywhere this type of law has been enacted, the campaign begins for its expansion soon after.
“Hook the users; hold them for as long as they can; harvest their data; hide the truth from the public when making public statements,” Megan O’Neill, a deputy attorney general for the California Department of Justice, described the social media company’s alleged tactics. “Meta’s business model worked especially well for kids,” she hammered home.
Although it remains a confusing and somewhat vague idea, across the Australian political spectrum we have recently seen the rise of a newly favored phrase: “social cohesion.” Because Australian politicians are now using it with such regularity, it is helpful to understand what it means to the ruling class, how they propose to achieve it, and how it is measured.
Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison sued the Trump administration in April 2025 to stop the enforcement of two executive orders: “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government,” which defines sex as biological and binary, and “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports,” which prohibits the federal government from funding educational organizations that allow boys to play girls sports.
The family of a Christian grandmother who was euthanized, allegedly without her consent, has filed a complaint to the Office of the Chief Coroner of Ontario. Brigette Stegemann previously refused so-called Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) on the grounds that it violated her Christian faith, and died by a lethal injection on July 10 without providing a final verbal confirmation of consent, the family says
The U.S. State announced this month that it has approved nearly $2 billion in partnerships with faith-based organizations, which it calls “the largest allocation of global health foreign assistance to faith-based organizations in over 20 years.” The announcement indicates a promising uptick in engagement with faith-based organizations. But, as with any foreign aid spending, the benefits will only be reaped through effective and committed oversight.
A coalition of parents in northern California has sued the Palo Alto Unified School District for a high school field trip to a mosque in the fall of 2025. “Students allegedly were encouraged to wear Islamic religious attire, were given Qurans, observed prayer, engaged with participants in a Quran-memorization program, and were exposed to messaging that portrayed Islam as uniquely aligned with social justice work,” the August 7 complaint declares. Strikingly, not a single family involved in the lawsuit is Christian.
When we understand how God views human life, we recognize that abortion is not simply a political issue; it concerns children created in the image of God. With that in mind, we should pay attention to what is happening in our nation, specifically within the state of Massachusetts.
Under the banner of “ethnic studies” and the new buzzword “adultism,” teacher training programs and classroom curricula across more than 22 states are systematically teaching that parental authority is a form of oppression—tyranny, fascism, even.
What we are watching unfold around Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham is a window into what happens when a culture abandons objective truth and replaces it with ideology. From a biblical worldview, there is a larger issue beneath it all.
Abortion drugs are being shipped, often in big brown trucks with friendly drivers, across boundaries into states with greater respect for life. Now two conservative companies are discussing ways to stop it. Both Jerry Bowyer, president and CEO of Bowyer Research, and Tim Schwarzenberger, director of corporate engagement at Inspire Investing, spoke on the “Washington Watch” program about their meeting. They have already submitted a proposal to United Parcel Service (UPS) to review their policy on distribution of abortion drugs.
The U.S. Department of Education is telling colleges and universities it’s time to show their policies and practices put education first. Education Secretary Linda McMahon issued a National Call to Action asking university presidents and governing boards to publicly lay out their commitments to strengthening higher education by the end of 2026.
In June, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the attorneys general of Alaska, Iowa, Nebraska and Texas sued the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH) over deceptive claims regarding the treatment of children. The complaint alleges that WPATH’s eighth edition of the Standards of Care (SOC-8) contains “core deceptive statements” that misled parents and providers about the necessity, effectiveness and safety of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones and surgeries for minors.
Sometimes evil lurks in the shadows. Other times, it operates openly for everyone to see. That was the case earlier this week in Massachusetts when Democrat Governor Maura Healey signed legislation legalizing abortion up until the moment of birth. Flanked by a group of liberal women who were absolutely ecstatic about the new law, Governor Healey was thrilled at a signing ceremony earlier this week.
McKenna West, the surrogate mother, fled Alaska and flew to Texas, where abortion is illegal. There, she gave birth to Gabriel in a Dallas hospital on Aug. 12. Texas AG Ken Paxton announced that he had “secured an emergency court order ensuring that baby Gabriel receives life-saving care in Texas.”
Both Cunningham and Smith are correct. We’ve got to have common sense. Just because a man says he is a woman doesn’t make it true. The human body testifies to that fact. The 30 trillion cells of the human body are either male or female. No amount of hormones or number of surgeries can alter the body’s cells and systems to effect a change from one sex to the other.
Nearly every post I make on social media receives at least some degree of negative interaction from unbelievers or Christians who have compromised on the truth of Genesis. But a recent post on my Facebook page exploded with hate. It was a short post (sometimes these short posts garner the most attention!), and it stated: "A gay 'marriage' is not a valid marriage."
President Donald Trump celebrated the move in a post announcing that Medicaid would no longer fund gender-transition surgeries or hormones for minors. “We are not going to pay for our innocent children to undergo these barbaric surgeries and practices,” Trump wrote, arguing that the procedures can cause irreversible harm. Trump also stated that pressure from his administration had already prompted dozens of hospitals across the country to discontinue such procedures and predicted that additional institutions would follow.
The state of Massachusetts has enacted a radical abortion law that allows for a baby to be killed up until the moment of birth. Thanks to the Prioritizing Patient Care Act, medical personnel are legally protected to abort babies beyond 24 weeks gestation upon request. Healey hosted a press conference on Monday, surrounded by a group of joyful women as she made the announcement that will undoubtedly lead to the death of more children. “Abortion is healthcare” read the sign hung on the podium Healey spoke from. Massachusetts is the tenth state to allow abortion up to birth.
This fall, Arizona State University is offering eight courses with words like witchcraft, magic, or the occult in the title. Meanwhile, one course will cover the bedrock faith of Western Civilization. “Think about that for a moment,” writes Owen Anderson, who teaches philosophy and religion at the university. “At one of the largest public universities in the country, students can choose from a small festival of courses on witchcraft, while Christianity receives [only] a single titled course.” A quick web search reveals other major universities across the country are offering similar classes.
I reached out to the school district for an explanation on why a book that is supposed to commemorate the highlights of a school year looked like a propaganda campaign from Antifa. Is it possible that the yearbook advisors were hired from The New York Times or Washington Post? Well, it turns out the school district is defending the anti-Trump, anti-conservative yearbook. A district spokesperson confirmed that the controversial images were not only published, but were also approved by the club’s advisor.
“Stories like Simeon’s show why Christians are compelled to live out their faith publicly. Having experienced profound transformation through Jesus, from despair to hope, and from brokenness to purpose, he is not ashamed to share what he believes. For Simeon, speaking about his faith is not about imposing beliefs on others, but about helping others discover the same faith, hope and love that have changed his life.” “This case is not about a technical vehicle modification. It is about whether ordinary Christians are free to express their faith in public without being excluded from essential services. “A sticker saying ‘Jesus Loves You’ is not comparable to a commercial advert, a political campaign or an offensive slogan. It is a peaceful statement of Christian belief.
“As a result of my disclosures,” she said, “five physicians that participated in sex-rejecting procedures have been held accountable: three current physicians will have their clinical privileges and staff appointments permanently and irrevocably terminated, and two former physicians are permanently barred from ever again holding privileges or credentials at any facility owned by, controlled by, or affiliated with Texas Children's Hospital. This is what justice demanded.”
Homeschooling parents are simply exercising their parental right, and it is clear the government is losing patience with parents who wish to be the dominant voice in their children’s lives. In short, Mr Hill’s speech demonstrates increasing political anxiety that if children are allowed to grow inside communities that reinforce moral frameworks distinct from government propaganda, the state risks inheriting a society in which people are not sharing the same civic vocabulary. And that is a deeply uncomfortable proposition to this current government.
On the wall of the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, DC, are these words from President Thomas Jefferson: “God who gave us life gave is liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever.”
