Newsom's Put Up or Shut Up Moment on Girls' Sports
Newsom's Put Up or Shut Up Moment on Girls' Sports
by Suzanne Bowdey
Just how sincere is California Governor Gavin Newsom's (D) concern about girls' sports? The world is about to find out. The longtime Democrat's frank interview with Charlie Kirk earlier in the month shook the foundations of his leftist base when he declared that it was "deeply unfair" to let biological boys hijack girls' sports. It was a calculated political move, to be sure. But the man with his eye on 2028 may have left something out of those calculations: a Trump administration determined to make him mean it.

PERKINS: Taxpayer Funds Should Respect the Will of the People
PERKINS: Taxpayer Funds Should Respect the Will of the People
by Tony Perkins
A House DOGE subcommittee put a magnifying glass to NPR and PBS, funded in part with federal tax dollars through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. The most recent budget shows that the two left-leaning media outlets rake in just shy of $550 million a year from taxpayers. Yet, the starkest example of waste, fraud, and abuse may be found in the abortion industry - particularly at Planned Parenthood, which surpasses NPR and PBS in the scope of public funding and controversy.

by Joshua Arnold
Some Democratic officials in Washington are struggling to cope with their loss of power in the 2024 election, a struggle that manifests in hypocritical flip-flops on fundamental building blocks of American government. The problem is not unique to the Democratic Party, but their recent examples serve to illustrate the wisdom of America's founders in constructing a system of checks and balances.

Senators Introduce Bill to Abolish TSA, Privatize Airport Security
by Joshua Arnold
The only government agency to face more loathing than the IRS may soon see its days cut short. U.S. Senators Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) have introduced a bill to abolish the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and establish private security at U.S. airports.

Taxpayers vs. Planned Parenthood: Congressman Discusses Fight to Defund Abortion Giant
Taxpayers vs. Planned Parenthood: Congressman Discusses Fight to Defund Abortion Giant
by Sarah Holliday
The movement to protect mothers, fathers, and unborn children from the pervasive threats and devastating consequences of abortion has thrived for decades, undeterred. The historic overturning of Roe v. Wade marked a seismic victory for the pro-life cause, a hard-fought triumph in the battle to affirm life. Yet, the grim reality persists - abortion continues to inflict irreparable harm and is, in part, propped up by millions of taxpayer dollars. But now, with Republicans wielding unified control of the House, Senate, and White House, could this be the moment pro-lifers have been praying for, the chance to finally turn the tide?

Why Georgia's Religious Freedom Restoration Act Is Necessary to Protect People of Faith
by Jacob Kersey
The Georgia legislative session is in its final stretch, and there is an important piece of legislation which would protect the God-given, constitutional right to religious freedom of every Georgian from state and local government overreach. The governor's version of the Georgia Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) passed out of the Georgia Senate earlier this month and is now up for a full House vote. As a Georgian, this bill hits home for me.

You're Being Held by Grace. Don't Trip in Fear.
You're Being Held by Grace. Don't Trip in Fear.
by Sarah Holliday
Have you heard it said that the phrases, "do not be afraid" or "fear not," appears throughout the Bible more than 80 times? Of course, that number varies depending on who you ask and which translation you read. But the sheer repetition drives home an undeniable truth: Scripture relentlessly emphasizes fear and our need to view it correctly - biblically. If this is woven so deeply into the text of God's word, does that not signal severe significance?
