Chaos in the Capitol

Calm is beginning to return to Capitol Hill after lawlessness and violence broke out earlier this afternoon. The violence at the U.S. Capitol building against Congress and Capitol Police is wrong and dangerous for our republic. Lawlessness is not the way, and such actions makes it difficult for law-abiding Americans to fight the good fight. Pray for our republic!

In Disappointment, Buoyed by Hope

When things started looking bleak on the morning of November 4th, conservatives held tightly to one comfort: At least we have the Senate. Two long and punishing months later, even that consolation is slipping away. Barring a last-minute surge for Senator David Perdue (R-Ga.), Republicans -- despite truly incredible gains in the House -- are on the verge of two tough years in the minority. It isn't the script any of us would have written for the country we love. But as those of us who've lived through the long arc of this movement know: it isn't the closing chapter either.

Americans may be saying goodbye to President Trump later this month, but his presence will still be larger-than-life in another branch of government: the courts. Almost every day, there's another headline reminding both sides what an amazing judicial legacy the 45th president is leaving behind. And with Congress very nearly in Democratic hands, that's no small prize.

CNN Makes a Mockery of Faith

No one would mistake CNN as a champion of Christianity, but Chris Cuomo's latest diatribe against Senator Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) crosses a line -- even for them. Maybe the network bosses have decided they don't want the big slice of viewership that the church represents. If not, then they've got an uphill climb proving otherwise, especially when they let their junkyard dogs use their airtime to attack faith.

The Zuckerberg Effect: How a Facebook Fortune Changed 2020

How dramatically did Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg change the 2020 election? The Facebook billionaire's influence, bought through $350 million in political grants, stretched to 2,500 jurisdictions and paid for ballot drop boxes, polling station employees, neighborhood harvesting, and other key decision-making. Did it tilt the outcome? Thomas More Society's Phill Kline joined us on "Washington Watch" to unpack one of the most disturbing, untold stories from last November.
