| Americans Rush to Enlist in Trump's Military Recruitment Boom |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| The Trump team may be slashing and burning lots of government jobs, but there's one agency that's been hanging a "We're hiring" shingle for four years: the U.S. military. In yet another sign that the long and embarrassing chapter of the Biden administration is over, young men and women apparently can't enlist fast enough, spiking recruitment numbers that had been at their lowest levels since World War II. Apparently, voters aren't the only ones eager to exchange a commander in woke for a commander in chief. |

| FBI 'Mission Drift' Targeted Christians, Ignored Islamist Threats: Fmr. Advisor |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has drifted far off course, warned former FBI senior advisor Hedieh Mirahmadi Falco, a Christian convert from Islam, on "Washington Watch." "It's not just mission drift. It's mission chaos. And the only way we can undo that is by putting a focus [on] these agencies to undo the harm that has been done." |

| 'Bring on the Sanctions': President Trump Sanctions Another Global Governance Body |
| by Ben Johnson |
| As part of a sweeping strategy to reclaim national sovereignty and bolster its support for the state of Israel, President Donald Trump has imposed sanctions on yet another global governance institution. On Thursday, February 6, President Trump signed an executive order "Imposing Sanctions on the International Criminal Court," or ICC. The executive order imposes potential economic and visa-based consequences on the body, which Americans have long feared could charge and try U.S. soldiers under international criminal law. |

| Trump Creates Federal 'Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias' |
| by S.A. McCarthy |
| Following through on another campaign promise, President Donald Trump is forming a task force to combat anti-Christian bias in the federal government. Trump announced the task force's creation at the National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday. "From the earliest days of our republic, faith in God has always been the ultimate source of the strength that beats in the hearts of our nation," the president declared. Noting that "America is and will always be 'one nation under God,'" he continued, "We have to bring religion back. We have to bring it back much stronger. It's one of the biggest problems that we've had over the last fairly long period of time. We have to bring it back." |

| Trump's Do-Over Administration Shows Crippling Effects of Russia Collusion Hoax on First Term |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| From executive orders, to foreign policy wins, to bureaucratic bloodletting, the second Trump administration has begun with a flash, a bang, and a series of giant ka-booms. The pace is so frenetic, the policies so comprehensive, and the solutions so commonsensical that it makes one wonder where this was in Trump's first term. |

| Reflecting on an NFL Season of Players Boldly Sharing Their Faith |
| by Kathy Athearn |
| While it was a short time ago that many Americans boycotted the NFL, refusing to watch another player kneel during "The Star-Spangled Banner" because they were ashamed of the United States and the Judeo-Christian principles on which it was founded, the NFL's culture is changing. More and more players are displaying humility and gratitude. Not only that - there has been a noticeable increase in the number of players who are boldly sharing their faith in Jesus Christ. |

| Trump Administration Targets Opposition to Deportations |
| by S.A. McCarthy |
| The Trump administration is preparing to prosecute officials and others for obstructing deportations and putting federal law enforcement agents at risk. President Donald Trump's border czar, former Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) chief Tom Homan, confirmed on Thursday that plans for an immigration raid on Aurora, Colorado had been leaked and vowed to find whoever had leaked the information. An ICE raid originally planned for Wednesday was meant to target members of the violent Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TDA), who had taken over parts of Aurora, just outside Denver. ICE had planned to arrest over 100 TDA members but, due to the leak, only arrested 30 illegal immigrants, including only one TDA member. |

| Trump Administration Will 'Not Tolerate the Mistreatment of Female Athletes' |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| What started as a conflict among a half-dozen college volleyball teams has now made its way to the White House. Experts say President Donald Trump is making major strides toward the protection of girls by upholding fairness and safety in their athletics. This was made evident by his executive order, signed on Wednesday, banning men from women's sports. And to follow through on his order, Trump has officially launched an investigation into the alleged Title IX violations that have taken place on college campuses. |

| USAID: From Cold War Sentinel to Ideological Sideshow |
| by Craig DeLuz |
| In the annals of American governance, agency functions often undergo a transformation that strays from their original mandate. USAID (U.S. Agency for International Development), established during the Cold War, initialed its mission with clear intentions: to advance U.S. foreign policy and create a xxxxxx against the spread of communism. Over time, however, it appears that the agency has deviated from this objective, making a compelling case for its closure, as President Donald Trump suggests. |

| Living in the World, Not of It: The Balance of Finding Unity While Standing Firm in Truth |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| To be "in the world but not of the world" is a phrase you've likely heard before. It's one of those sayings that seems to make sense, but it remains undeniably easier said than done. At least for Christians, we understand that we are in the world, passing through, on our way to eternity. We also understand that we are not to be of the world in the sense that we submit our lives to Christ, putting off the desires of the flesh, avoiding temptations, resisting evil. We understand these things, but how can we ensure we're living them out? |
