Who Falls in Love Faster, Men or Women?
By: Glenn T. Stanton
Families usually start with a man and woman falling in love. So how and when love develops between romantic partners is an important topic for those interested in studying how marriages and families form.
A recent study published in the journal Biology of Sex Differences conducted by an Australian research team examines the very interesting question of who typically falls in love first.
This study claims to be the first to explore this question in a substantive, cross-cultural sample with validated measures. It involved a sample of 808 young adults (age 18-25) who are currently experiencing romantic love, residing in 33 different countries.
This research finds that while women think about their love-interest more often than men do — in 54% of their waking hours, compared to 44% of men’s waking hours — men are slightly more likely to fall in love with their girlfriends and do so markedly sooner.

Why Did Trump Justice Department Ask to Dismiss Abortion Pill Lawsuit?
By: Paul Batura
Pro-lifers were taken aback on Monday with news the Justice Department has asked to dismiss a lawsuit restricting access to the abortion pill over health and safety concerns.
The lawsuit in question, originally filed in 2022 by pro-life doctors, was rejected by the Supreme Court back in June of 2024 for lack of standing. A revised suit was initiated later in the year by three state attorneys in Missouri, Idaho and Kansas.
In the lawsuit, attorneys are requesting a myriad of changes that have led to the explosive and reckless growth of mifepristone — an expansion that exponentially increases the health risk to women in addition to the certain death of their preborn children.
For example, current rules don’t require women to see a doctor in person, and even nurse practitioners and other healthcare workers can prescribe the toxic, deadly drug.
This lethal pharmaceutical cocktail is being sent through the mail and, in many cases, available at your neighborhood drugstore where you buy eye drops and greeting cards.
The New York Times reports:
“The Trump administration’s request makes no mention of the merits of the case, which have not yet been considered by the courts. Rather, echoing the argument that the Biden administration made shortly before Mr. Trump took office, the court filing asserts that the case does not meet the legal standard to be heard in the federal district court in which it was filed.”

Baltimore Sues FanDuel, DraftKings for Targeting Problem Gamblers
By: Emily Washburn
FanDuel and DraftKings target people with gambling problems, the city of Baltimore alleged in its lawsuit against the two largest online sports books in America.
The case makes Baltimore the first public entity to take online sports betting companies to court over exploitative business practices that have become industry staples.
The suit, filed in Baltimore Circuit Court in April, accuses FanDuel and DraftKings of:
- Using misleading promotions like “no sweat” bets to encourage Baltimoreans to wager every day.
- Using extensive online data collection to identify lucrative problem gamblers and exclude professional gamblers.
- Targeting problem gamblers with special promotions and services to extract maximum profit.
Baltimore claims this business model violates both a city code preventing businesses from engaging in “unfair, abusive or deceptive trade practices” and a state gambling regulation forbidding sports books from “[conducting] sports wagering in a manner that may adversely impact the public or the integrity of sports wagering.”
“[FanDuel and DraftKings’] actions demonstrate a callous disregard not only for the rule of law, but also for the public health, safety and well-being of Baltimore consumers,” the case concludes.

Trump Announces Commission to Defend Religious Liberty
By: Zachary Mettler
In a special Rose Garden ceremony on Thursday, President Trump created the new Presidential Commission on Religious Liberty while celebrating the National Day of Prayer.
In his speech, the president quoted President John Adams on the importance of his first National Day of Prayer.
“In just a few moments, I’ll be signing an executive order creating a Presidential Commission on Religious Liberty,” the president said, “which is really why we’re here more than any other reason.”
The executive order, which the president proceeded to sign, declares,
“It shall be the policy of the executive branch to vigorously enforce the historic and robust protections for religious liberty enshrined in Federal law.”
“Americans need to be reacquainted with our Nation’s superb experiment in religious freedom in order to preserve it against emerging threats,” the order explains, adding,
“Therefore, the Federal Government will promote citizens’ pride in our foundational history, identify emerging threats to religious liberty, uphold Federal laws that protect all citizens’ full participation in a pluralistic democracy, and protect the free exercise of religion.”
The White House released pictures from the event.

Massachusetts Give Students Intrusive Survey About Sex, Alcohol and Drugs
By: Jeff Johnston
Warning, this article includes sensitive sexual content.
Massachusetts parents were upset to learn their high school and middle school children — some as young as 11 years old — were given government surveys asking intrusive and explicit questions about their sexual experiences; alcohol, drug and tobacco usage; and “gender identity.”
Many Burlington Public School (BPS) students were given the surveys, even though their parents had opted them out of taking the 2025 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS), a national survey created by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
The survey was first conducted in 1991, primarily to track behaviors related to HIV infection. But it’s broadened in scope since then, and many parents find the questions inappropriate for minors.
In early April, irate BPS parents alerted Massachusetts Family Institute (MFI), a Focus on the Family ally, about the nature of the surveys, as well as the fact that some students were required to take it against their parents’ wishes.
MFI posted a video of concerned parents, grandparents and other citizens complaining about the YRBS at a school board meeting. One grandmother, whose granddaughter took the survey against her parents’ wishes, said,
“Every child has the right to go to school being loved, cared for and treated with respect. We have the right to send our children to school and not have this stuff shoved down their throats.”
