AB 495 is formerly called "the Family Preparedness Act of 2025" and is authored by Democratic Assemblywoman Celeste Rodriguez. The bill would essentially allow an adult, who is not required to be a relative, to pick up a child from school or daycare. All they have to know is the child's name and birthday, fill out an eight-question affidavit, say that they tried to reach out to the parents, and leave with the child—no proof required.
Here’s the bottom line: The Trump administration cannot support the Biden abortion drug policy and still claim to support the right of states to protect the unborn. The two positions are mutually exclusive. President Trump should restore the rule of law by reversing Biden’s abortion drug policy and allowing states to do what Dobbs intended — protect life.
During the last two decades, Americans’ belief in spiritual realities fell dramatically. In the early 2000s, belief in God stood at over 90%, roughly where it had been for many decades. According to Gallup News, by 2023 it had fallen to 74% — still a majority, but a big decline. Gallup reported that in 2023, 69% of Americans believed in angels, 67% in heaven, 59% in hell, and 58% of Americans believed in the devil.
The state of Missouri has filed a lawsuit against the nation’s foremost supplier of abortion, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, for misleading women about the safety of the abortion drug mifepristone, including claiming that it is “safer than Tylenol.” Experts are applauding the move and also urging more to be done at the federal level to restrict the drug on account of its documented dangers.
In a statement, Attorney General Pamela Bondi warned that “Medical professionals and organizations that mutilated children in the service of a warped ideology will be held accountable by this Department of Justice.”
The antiterrorism and protection training sessions, which occurred from the summer of 2023 through 2024 at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, insisted that openly pro-life individuals represented a terrorist threat. The slides singled out the National Right to Life and Operation Rescue as "terrorist organizations," and also included individuals who "oppose Roe v Wade" and have "Choose Life" license plates on their vehicles.
Talarico is completely twisting Scripture to support the murder of babies! He is absolutely no different from the “Christians” and “pastors” who likewise twisted Scripture to support slavery in the pre–Civil War era. He’s relegated a class of human beings to “subhuman” and then said it’s okay to treat them any way you want. It’s vile. It’s atrocious.
Perkins pointed to Louisiana State Senator Valerie Hodges (R) in the audience, who’s introducing a bill for the state to formally recognize the biblical lands of Judea and Samaria in the next legislative session. Then, in a symbolic moment, Mayor Evans and Dogan signed a proclamation formally establishing Central, Louisiana as a sister city of Samaria.
Twice, while walking through Washington, Huckabee was aggressively confronted by pro-Hamas protestors. “They recognized me, surrounded me, screamed at me,” he told us. “It made things so uncomfortable that about fifteen D.C. police had to intervene. That happened—not once—but twice.” In a comment that startled many, Huckabee added, “I got to get out of this crazy town, Washington, and get back to Jerusalem, where I’m safe."
Let’s be clear: these laws are not just about therapy. In many places, any non-affirming message, even offered lovingly and in private, is considered harmful. In Australia, it’s already illegal for clergy to offer biblical counsel on same-sex attraction or gender confusion—even if it’s requested. How long before America follows suit?
The Biden administration and the legacy media insisted throughout his presidency that, behind the scenes, Biden was "sharp as a tack." The mainstream media ran cover while the administration propped Biden up like "Weekend at Bernie's." The charade finally ended last June when Biden bombed in the presidential debate with President Trump.
In case Iran does renew its nuclear efforts, President Trump has already given a green light for additional Israeli strikes if the Iranians try to retrieve enriched uranium from inside the attacked nuclear facilities or if they attempt to restore their enrichment program. Considering the facts that Iran’s economy has collapsed and their stock market is in freefall, it seems that the ayatollahs should have other priorities to attend to.
“After years of education, agitation, and the efforts of many, churches will now be unshackled from the Johnson Amendment—free to speak Biblically on cultural issues and candidates without fear of the IRS. I am grateful and thank all who have worked tirelessly to achieve this outcome.”
Liberals will try anything to make you believe that it is a 21st Century version of the old Nazi Concentration camps with all the stigmas attached to that era! It is interesting that they would seek to capitalize on a very dark period of history from the mid-30s to the mid-40s, to garner a completely unjustified public's outrage, but they would ignore the fact that we seem to be back in a 1930s/40s antisemitic atmosphere as it pertains to the safety of the Jewish people.
Even as the courts give their seal of approval to homosexual and gender-bending propaganda in government schools (as long as parents are allowed an “opt out” for their children), the same court system is claiming — falsely — that displays of the Ten Commandments in the classroom are “unconstitutional.”
For the women who have previously been affected by the unfair playing field, the University has promised in the agreement to strip male swimmer "Lia Thomas" of the titles, giving them instead to the female athletes he competed against. They will also be writing a "personalized letter of apology to each impacted female swimmer."
Unless the Trump administration reverses this reckless Biden-era policy and conducts a full safety review of mifepristone, pro-life laws will remain largely symbolic. Lives will remain at risk, including the unborn, their mothers, and our broader society. The Trump administration must end these Biden-era policies to stand with us for life.
Children belong to government-school teachers and teacher unions, argued a leading teachers union boss in explosive comments this week. Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) President Stacy Davis Gates also mocked those who expressed concerns about the ominous ideology that government is responsible for children, rather than God and their parents.
Will we stand on God’s Word, or conform to this world? It has become politically expedient for many on that side (though far from all) to call Israel an “apartheid state,” or even equate them to the Nazis who once murdered more than a third of all Jews worldwide. Then, in just the last few months, a large group of conservatives have joined the most extreme liberals regarding Israel. Conservative voices you perhaps once thought you could trust are today saying things like, “Drop Israel.”
We are deeply saddened by the rapidly darkening antisemitic climate, but we should not be surprised. Scripture is clear: A day is coming when antisemitism will rise so quickly and so strongly that it will blind all nations—including America.
I have never forgotten the legacy of my Scottish ancestors who immigrated to America for the freedom to worship Jesus Christ. For too long now, government officials have been hostile to expressions of the Christian faith and particularly the Name of Jesus Christ. I look forward to doing everything we can to continue freely and boldly proclaiming the truth of God’s Word and the life-changing Gospel.
Let the Word of God be your standard of reality—not the Conservative Manosphere. The Apostle Paul calls what you are doing boasting against the natural branches, and he warns us not to do it (Rom. 11:11–27). By denying that Israel — even in her fallen state — has any claim to the land of promise, you are rejecting God’s self-revelation as immutable, faithful, merciful, gracious, and long-suffering.
The truth is that Israel should have finished them off, but if you know Ezekiel 38 and 39, none of this should surprise you as a student of God's Word. We know that Iran must live to see another day. What we are witnessing today is far more than just another major conflict with Israel and her enemies. This is part of something much greater that is coming. It is setting the stage for Bible prophecy to be fulfilled.
I recently saw a study from the Pew Research Center on “The Experiences of LGBTQ Americans Today,” marking the 10-year anniversary of Obergefell. They said they believe cultural acceptance of LGBTQ lifestyles has increased because of “more support from religious leaders and... greater representation in politics and entertainment.” In other words, LGBTQ individuals believe it’s religious leaders who have had a huge part in dulling the national conscience toward sexual sin!
Predictably, advocates of the transgender ideology called the ruling “heartless” and “a dangerous setback” for the trans rights movement. The LGBTQ lobby is now turning its frustration on the former Biden administration and the ACLU for taking Tennessee to court in the first place. Why? Because they knew public scrutiny would be disastrous.
Should America be involved? There is a growing voice among conservatives in America, saying "America first" means "stay out of it." They are wrong. A nuclear Iran is a direct threat to America. The Islamic Republic's Supreme Leader openly stated: "If we wanted to build a nuclear weapon, America would not be able to stop us." To which the crowd chanted, "Death to America!"
The compass that has guided the United States of America to world prominence and prosperity, helping to navigate us through incredible challenges that have included a civil war and two world wars, has been our faith in God. He is the “north” on our “compass.” He is the Center-point. We were founded on Judeo-Christian principles. We are one nation, under God. Even our monetary currency declares, In God We Trust. But we seem to have lost our way. It’s time for a reset of our national moral and spiritual compass.
“The Biden administration and ACLU asked the court to create a ‘constitutional right’ to give children harmful, experimental drugs and surgeries that turn them into patients for life. This would have forced states to base their laws on ideology, not evidence—to the immense harm of countless children. The court’s rejection of that request is a monumental victory for children, science, and common sense. States are free to protect children from the greatest medical scandal in generations—and that’s exactly what states like Tennessee have done.”
Let me be unequivocal: for those who say we cannot afford to support Israel, I say we cannot afford not to. If we abandon our support for Israel, we will soon discover that the account of God’s blessing on America is overdrawn. We have long benefited from the undeserved favor of the Lord. To walk away from Israel is to walk away from the source of that favor. This is more than geopolitics — it’s about biblical truth.
What a dismal view of God and His Word from so many so-called pastors! But this isn’t surprising, given the liberal trajectory of the mainline denominations. They abandoned the authority of God’s Word long ago, and that compromise just leads to more compromise (and more doubt!).
The warrior-king David wrote in Psalm 20: “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.” Yes, a strong military is vital for peace in today’s turbulent world. But history teaches us that military might alone is not enough. We need the protective hand of God.
Washington evacuated its embassy in Baghdad, Iraq. It also cleared out non-essential personnel from Bahrain and Kuwait and put all American tankers in the Persian Gulf on alert. U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth said on Wednesday that Iran is determined to go ahead with their nuclear program, seeming to indicate that America had become ready to green light Israel.
Can public schools force elementary-age students to participate in gender and sexuality instruction, with no notice given to parents and no ability to opt out? Can a state protect minors from medical transgender procedures? And can a state block abortion providers such as Planned Parenthood from receiving Medicaid funds?
The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), an American group working to bypass Hamas by distributing aid directly to Gazans, released an "urgent" statement detailing a significant Hamas attack on Wednesday evening, leaving multiple aid workers dead and a possible hostage situation.
In the midst of this chaos, some of us Christians might be wondering: What does the Bible say about immigrants? It’s important for us to align our worldview with the Bible, and Scripture has a lot to say about the many issues we’re facing right now in culture. That includes immigration, border policies, and order.
North American universities and colleges drive this smear campaign. Campuses have undergone a gradual yet profound transformation from bastions of higher education into hotbeds of incitement against Israel. This makeover owes its success in part to a plan by the Muslim Brotherhood to “institute the Islamic Revolution in the United States,” as revealed by an FBI source inside the Brotherhood in 1988.
"The Jewish people have been a target of antisemitism, which is just a fancy word for Jew-hatred, for thousands of years, and nothing is changing. In America, unfortunately, since October 7th, antisemitism has grown when you would think it would be the opposite. I think right now, we're seeing a turning point. If you're a pro-Israel Christian, if you are a believer in the Bible and the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, you are also becoming a target."
These days, Jesus described, would also be like "the days of Noah." In Genesis 6:5, 11, we read that in the time before the flood: "God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually... The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence." Is the earth once again being "filled with violence," just as Jesus forewarned? A brief look at the recent events leads to a sad and unmistakable answer.
With Father’s Day approaching, we have an opportunity to push back against the cultural storyline that treats dads as accessories. Fatherhood is not a casual role for the mildly interested; it is a God-ordained calling that secures the identity of a home and, by extension, the vitality of a republic. Strong fathers cultivate citizens who are resilient, just, and free.
We are still processing the very recent Washington DC murder of two Israeli diplomats. They were killed by a Hamas sympathizer, screaming "Free Palestine" and "I did it for Hamas." He wasn't an Islamist from the Middle East but a radical Leftist from Chicago, promoting the lies of global antisemites. The Intifada (uprising) has truly become globalized. Words have morphed into actions and Jewish people are now being killed. Then the Boulder attack happened.
There is a soft coup that is being attempted in Israel. Liberal members of the Knesset are rejecting Prime Minister Netanyahu’s leadership, while the judiciary has him in court at least 12 hours a week, trying him on bogus corruption charges. This is the enemy at work, and he is trying to take the prime minister down before Hamas is fully destroyed.
While the United States was engaged in negotiations last month, Iranian Supreme Leader Khamenei threatened America and once again called Israel a "cancerous tumor" that must be removed. During his speech, his supporters shouted, "Death to the America! Death to Israel!" What kind of deal could you possibly make with this evil, wicked regime?
“When abortion-related emergencies are disguised as miscarriages, it impairs a doctor’s ability to make informed, evidence-based decisions. That isn’t just a documentation error — it’s a public health crisis. The abortion industry’s push for concealment is unethical and dangerous. Women deserve honest guidance and proper medical care, not advice that jeopardizes their health.”
Now, nearly one year (and one presidential election) after being terminated, Vanessa is finally getting some redress for the hospital’s apparent retaliation. Federal Health and Human Services officials announced in April the agency would begin investigating the pediatric hospital for illegal retaliation under federal whistleblower protection laws. HHS also released new guidance for whistleblower complaints and an online portal regarding the chemical and surgical mutilation of children.
“Put simply, the American people are fed up with the increasingly radical Pride agenda — and the rainbow crowd has overplayed their hand. This year — as in years past — Boise Pride organized a ‘Pride Month Kick Off.’ This event generated so little interest in the community that the organizers were forced to cancel. The lesson is that using taxpayer dollars to push radical LGBT ideologies in our schools, our businesses, and our military is not only morally problematic, but also wildly unpopular."
Texas lawmakers voted to mandate that government schools display a copy of the Ten Commandments for students, sparking praise from many Jews, Christians, and advocates of transcendent moral truth but howls of rage and threats of lawsuits from leftists, secularists, and pagans.
Politicians like Senator Warren, prioritizing political narratives over truth, endanger the very people they claim to defend. When truth is sacrificed for political posturing, responsible policy decisions become impossible, ultimately hurting those most in need. Truth matters; without it, genuine justice and equity cannot exist.
Rodriguez was full of hatred because, for years, that's what he was consuming. He fed his mind and soul on anti-American, anti-Israel, and antisemitic content. We are what we eat—not just physically but spiritually and intellectually. The same university thought that radicalized Rodriguez is spreading like a metastasizing cancer across America.
Government schools are blatantly indoctrinating American children into false and demonic “religions” that are entirely incompatible with the Bible and the foundational principles of the United States. This is one of the most urgent crises facing the nation.
France, Britain, and Canada just issued a joint statement saying they will take “concrete” actions against Israel if the war in Gaza is not halted immediately and the pace of humanitarian aid increased. Sweden’s foreign minister has announced she will promote the imposition of sanctions by the EU on Israeli ministers. Spain’s parliament has approved consideration of a proposal to ban arms trade with Israel. The devil is angry that one more of his plans to wipe out Israel has failed, and, so, the nations are raging.
It is not another radical Islam crime. It is a result of the continual normalization of antisemitism that we have been witnessing over the last couple of years. Words chanted such as "Free Palestine" or "Globalize the Intifada" eventually led to blood being shed, and this is exactly the outcome of Wednesday evening's attacks.
Two Israeli embassy staffers were shot and killed in an anti-Semitic shooting attack in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday evening around 9 PM. According to a spokesperson for the embassy, the diplomats were shot "at close range" while attending an event at the Capital Jewish Museum.
“Your systems made it possible, and your silence made it permanent! … You replaced my voice. You stole my seat at the table. And you made decisions about my daughter without me! … Don’t think you can take a man’s child from him and not reap a whirlwind!”
We've just learned President Biden is fighting aggressive stage four prostate cancer that has already spread to his bones. As Christians, we pray for his recovery, but we also need to be asking the hard questions. How are we just now hearing about this? It can take years for prostate cancer to reach stage four, and the President is kept under the watchful eye of doctors and undergoes routine exams.
The prevailing false view in the Christian community is that the church will someday prevail over the ills and evils of our world and inaugurate millennial conditions throughout the world before Jesus returns to the earth. Lest anyone think that such teaching, known as Dominion Theology, is of little or no consequence for our day, one of its chief proponents now has an office inside the White House.
The belief that, with enough money, one could till the soil of Islamic authoritarianism and plant the seeds of freedom endemic to our constitutional Republic was rooted in a deeply flawed worldview. It was a fool’s errand to think that drafting a constitution for Afghanistan would give rise to a nation that recognizes and protects God-given rights. Freedom is not the product of imposed institutions — it springs from a transformed people.
To those who understand biblical prophecy, none of this is surprising. The book of Revelation tells us where this is all heading: a global system of control, a centralized economy, and the inability to buy or sell without submission to a beastly power. We are not guessing anymore. It’s not theory. The technology, legislation, and infrastructure are all actively being developed.
Despite the fake news media, there are no indications that President Trump has thrown Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu under the bus. The United States is still our greatest ally, and I don’t see that changing under this administration.
The fake news media machine is working overtime to manufacture a rift between Israel and President Trump—and they concocted this tale right before the American leader was headed to Saudi Arabia. This isn't journalism, it's propaganda designed to tear President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu apart.
About 20 House Republicans are threatening to torpedo the entire bill unless Planned Parenthood — the nation’s largest abortion business — continues to receive roughly $700 million a year in fresh taxpayer funding. Let that sink in: self-described pro-life lawmakers are ready to keep borrowing from your grandchildren to bankroll an organization that Congress has investigated for trafficking in baby body parts...
Christians have welcomed the changes, knowing that humans—male and female—are made in the image of God, and it is sinful to despise what He has created for His glory. But these trends don’t change the fact that many people still believe that they can actually become the opposite sex. And regardless of federal policies, LGBTQ activists are doubling down.
There's a civil war going on in America right under your nose, and you may not even realize it. The weapons being used aren't bullets; they are building permits. "Epic City," which stands for "East Plano Islamic Center," is a 279-acre development outside Dallas. They're not just building houses. They're building a beachhead for Islamic conquest in the heart of Texas.
While we all desire a peaceful resolution, do you genuinely believe that the Iranian regime, with its ambitions to annihilate Israel, will suddenly cease its efforts? Or that its satanic hatred towards the Jewish state will simply vanish? A simple reading of Ezekiel 38 and 39 tells a different story. The answer is unequivocally "No."
We're on the brink of insanity, ladies and gentlemen! The direction this country is going is nothing short of insane. We are on the brink, I believe, of God judging this nation for the wicked sins that we have committed as a country. We need to repent.
"It's disgustingly ignorant to what actually transpired in the 1930s. Having a grandmother who barely survived Auschwitz, her brother being shoved into an oven, and her parents being shot dead in the street in Germany by a tyrannical regime—I can tell you this coming out of her mouth is just ignorance."
President Trump has pronounced repeatedly that his Administration is going to produce a “Golden Age” for America. I am confident that his down-to-earth, common-sense policies are going to be good for our nation. But a “Golden Age”? I don’t think so. However, there is a “Golden Age” promise that we can count on. It is one that God has made over and over again throughout His Word.
