RUBIO: The Biden Admin's Plan to Enforce Wokeness in the Workplace |
by Marco Rubio |
At the beginning of this month, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) proposed new guidance that would require virtually every employee in the United States to embrace his or her colleagues' self-described sexuality, gender identity, and "reproductive rights." Under this rule, anyone who does not conform to left-wing orthodoxy, as well as any employer who protects him or her, could be the target of a federal investigation and lawsuit. |

Israel Screens Raw, Unseen Hamas Footage for Reporters to Understand 'What We're Fighting For' |
by Suzanne Bowdey |
You didn't have to be in the roomful of international journalists to understand the sheer horror of what they saw. For all of the grisly, stomach-turning images posted online, nothing compared to the 43 minutes of torture screened for reporters on an Israeli military base Monday. Afterward, many, including Breitbart's Senior Editor-at-Large Joel Pollack, could only lean against a wall and weep. Replaying the victims' terrified screams in his mind, he writes, "There is no moment of redemption in the footage. We do not see the end, when the good guys arrive and save the victims." The only comfort, Pollack admits, "is the knowledge that the footage, at least, was retrieved from the terrorists after they were killed or captured." |

Conservative Satirist Sentenced to Federal Prison |
by Dan Hart |
On October 18, Douglass Mackey, who mainstream media outlets have characterized as a "far-right influencer," was sentenced to seven months in federal prison by a Brooklyn, N.Y. jury for engaging in "election interference" by posting fake Hillary Clinton campaign advertisements on Twitter before the 2016 election. Legal experts are decrying the court decision as an example of the "weaponization" of the Biden administration's Justice Department (DOJ), which has shown a pattern of targeting conservatives. |

Outstanding - Ep. 41: When is 'Christian' Teaching No Longer Christian? |
Podcast with Joseph Backholm, Jared Bridges and David Closson |
In today's culture, the decline of evangelical churches has reached new lows. This is not an overnight happening, but rather the slow creep of theological liberalism into teachings. The recent news of Pastor Andy Stanley's hosting of a LGBTQ-affirming conference at his Atlanta church -- along with his subsequent defense (and apparent downplaying of) sin -- got us thinking. When Christian teachers stray from Scripture, when does it cease to become Christian teaching? David Closson, director of FRC's Center for Biblical Worldview, along with The Washington Stand's Jared Bridges (who is also a pastor at his local church) join host Joseph Backholm to examine this emerging trend in light of Scripture. |

Former DEI Director: 'DEI Ideology Deliberately Stokes Hatred Toward Israel and the Jewish People' |
by Sarah Holliday |
Tabia Lee spent about two decades working in the field of education. However, it came to a halt after she was terminated from her two-year position as the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) director at De Anza Community College in California. The role of DEI director, as stated by De Anza, is to provide "equity, social justice, and academic success for all members" on campus. But Lee's testimony, which is centered around witnessing "blatant" anti-Semitism, revealed De Anza doesn't really mean "all" students. |
