| Always Ready: Speaker Johnson Gives Biblical Defense of Borders |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| In politics, reporters will ask anything. On Tuesday, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), flushed with victory, held a 10-minute press gaggle after wrangling his caucus of cantankerous cats into passing a spending bill package to end the latest Democrat-initiated government shutdown over federal immigration enforcement. Johnson deftly fielded all the expected questions - on the spending package itself, the prospects for a deal on DHS funding, and a bill to require photo ID in federal elections - before the final question flew out into left field. |

| Terror in Tanzania: Torture, Killings, and Political Kidnappings Fuel a Rising Panic |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| Consumed by war and a haunting number of dead, Africa is slipping into the kind of darkness the world has never seen. A river of innocent blood, stretching from Nigeria to Sudan, is devouring whole countries in suffering, as the hunted run to safety that doesn't exist. In Tanzania, a place of atrocity that hasn't even registered on the global consciousness, the exterminations have reached a frantic and terrifying peak. And unlike their northern neighbors, the mass graves in the shadows of Kilimanjaro are not the work of armed gangs or rebel militias, but a ruthless and power-hungry government. |

| What Constitution? Progressive States, Cities Join WHO Network after U.S. Withdrawal |
| by Joshua Arnold |
| For the past decade, left-wing Democrats have calibrated their actions by assessing whatever Donald Trump wants, and doing the opposite. This tactic is evident everywhere, but far fewer people understand how close this pattern comes to triggering a constitutional crisis. |

| FRC's Pray Vote Stand Chapters Equip Christians for Biblical Engagement in the Public Square |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| In a culture increasingly marked by division and moral ambiguity, Family Research Council's newly launched Pray Vote Stand (PVS) Chapters stands as a vital initiative to empower Christians as beacons of truth by "renewing faith and reviving freedom one community at a time." These chapters are designed to equip believers to bring biblical conviction confidently into the public square - "locally, prayerfully, and biblically," said FRC President Tony Perkins, during Wednesday's "Washington Watch." |

| Xi Escalates Pressure on Trump over Taiwan |
| by Dan Hart |
| During a two-hour phone call between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday, the communist dictator warned the president to approach arms deals with Taiwan with "extreme caution." The stark language comes as Beijing has steadily increased pressure on the democratic island with aggressive rhetoric and hostile military drills. |

| Trump Admin. Threatens Action against SJSU over Title IX Girls' Sports Violations |
| by S.A. McCarthy |
| A federal investigation has determined that a California university's transgender policies are in violation of federal law, inflicting serious damage on female students. The Department of Education (DOE) announced last week that San Jose State University (SJSU) violated Title IX, a federal civil rights law prohibiting sex discrimination in educational institutions, due to the university's policy allowing biological males to identify as transgender and compete in girls' sports. |

| Redistricting Battles Hit Federal and State Supreme Courts |
| by S.A. McCarthy |
| While the U.S. Supreme Court weighs possible sweeping changes to the Voting Rights Act (VRA), which could drastically reshape the U.S. House of Representatives, the high court is evidently allowing states to forge ahead with their redistricting arms race. In a brief, unsigned order Wednesday, the Supreme Court declined to hear a challenge against California Democrats' partisan redistricting efforts. |

| 'Melania': Propaganda or Perfectly Poised? |
| by Rachael Woods |
| "How did I get here?" I asked myself as I stood in the grand foyer of the Trump Kennedy Center. Like any classic elite D.C. event, you're either invited (because you're important) or else you secure a ticket through a friend-of-a-friend-who-knows-someone-who knows-someone else. I fell into the latter category for the "Melania: Twenty Days to History" documentary premiere. |

| Trump Admin. Cracks Down on Nike's Alleged Discrimination Against White Workers |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| Some would argue that Nike, the world's largest sports brand, has a questionable track record in recent years: promoting transgender ideology (including support for medical interventions on youth) as well as resistance to severing ties with suppliers linked to Uyghur forced labor in China (a persecuted Muslim minority) - two of the latest examples. Now, adding to this list, the company is officially under investigation by the Trump administration for alleged anti-white discrimination. |
