“Riley Gaines, another athlete who tied Thomas in NCAA competition, called the resolution “further proof that President Trump and his government agencies are committed to a pro-woman agenda.” Gaines is right. This administration isn’t just talking about women’s rights—they’re actually defending them, sending a clear message to every college and university in America: You can’t trample women’s civil rights in the name of political correctness and expect to get away with it.”
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) The Department of Education just delivered a major dose of accountability: The University of Pennsylvania has agreed to resolve Title IX violations tied to its decision to let Will “Lia” Thomas—a biological male—compete on the women’s swim team during the 2021-22 season….

“Several years ago, Baylor University’s Board of Regents granted the creation of Prism, the pro-LGBTQ group on campus that sponsored the aforementioned queer-sex ed course, and which has continued pushing for greater LGBTQ representation on campus. At this rate, Baylor will be fully LGBTQ inclusive in about a decade.”
“It was reductionism dressed up in religious finery, offering a shortcut through the wilderness of Christian life. And the result was what you’d expect from any spiritual vending machine… a faith devoid of repentance, maturity, or true accountability.”
(Ray Fava – Evangelical Dark Web) Jonathan Roumie has become a major celebrity in the Christian community for his portrayal of himself as Jesus in The Chosen. But many Christians are unaware that Jonathan Roumie is not a Christian, adding an extra layer of danger to both The Chosen and his broader celebrity.
(Matt Margolis – PJ Media) After days of gridlock and backroom wrangling, the Senate passed the “One Big, Beautiful Bill,” the legislative linchpin of his second-term agenda. The tally was 51 yeas and 50 nays, with Vice President JD Vance casting the tiebreaking vote.
36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. 37 For just as the days of Noah were, so the coming of the Son of Man will be. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and they did not understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 Then there will be two in the field; one will be taken, and one will be left. 41 Two women will be grinding grain at the mill; one will be taken and one will be left. 42 “Therefore stay awake, for you do not know which day your Lord is coming. 43 But be sure of this, that if the head of the house had known at what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have allowed his house to be broken into. 44 For this reason you also must be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not think He will. Matthew 24:36-44 (LSB) 
“The Supreme Court of the United States made sure that last Friday was not the slow news day that Fridays typically are. The justices were once again pressed into duty because of the antics of the chronic sufferers of Trump Derangement Syndrome. They almost certainly have better things to do, but it was time for the Judicial Branch to police itself.”
“We’ve seen this all before. The left has always projected their filth onto their enemies. They accuse others of the very sins they’re secretly committing behind closed doors. They called Trump a tyrant while building a surveillance state. They called [Judge] Roy Moore a predator while handing out Pulitzers to one. They scream “fascist” while pushing Marxist garbage and dragging this country into censorship, lawfare, and economic despair.”
“When the arc of history seemed to bend toward normalizing the Queer, connecting the trans cause to same-sex marriage seemed like a sure-fire win for the trans. Hard and soft power went all in on this strategy. What happened is different. Transing kids, platforming drag queens, and grooming children with comprehensive sex education have tainted same-sex marriage and the Gay Pride gambit among many. We are passing Peak Pride as a result.”
(Bill O’Reilly) Let’s talk contracts here. Social contracts. If you are an American citizen who pays taxes you are owed certain things. That’s the agreement the Constitution memorializes, that the feds and states are obligated to take shielding actions on your behalf.
“The fruit of online apologetics is such that those who desire attention can receive it through outlandish claims and outright misrepresentation. This is not limited to Roman Catholics or even Eastern Orthodox online but is observable in Protestant accounts who outright lie about distinctive Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox beliefs. In engaging with these beliefs one must have the utmost care to not bear false witness, not for the sake of being a nice guy or being winsome but because every idle word will be held before you on the day of judgment.”
“For many people of faith, there are few religious acts more important than the religious education of their children […] And the practice of educating one’s children in one’s religious beliefs, like all religious acts and practices, receives a generous measure of constitutional protection…”

(Madeline Leesman – Townhall) On Thursday, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth tore into reporters who “cheered against Trump” when he ordered the strikes on three Iranian nuclear facilities on Saturday.
“With no privilege left to hide behind, Mr. Bernal is now running scared, desperate to bury the truth. The American people deserve answers and accountability, and the Oversight Committee will not tolerate this obstruction. I will promptly issue a subpoena to compel Anthony Bernal’s testimony before the Committee.”
“Never before has the autopen been used under such a cloud of secrecy — or at a time when the sitting president’s mental capacity is so openly questioned. The Trump administration is not using the autopen to sign legally binding documents.”
“As the movement gained momentum and more people joined the demonstrations to rally for freedom, Trudeau took drastic, “Stalin-like” measures to shut it down. He instituted martial law and clamped down on the group by freezing their bank accounts and confiscating fuel from numerous trucks, effectively destroying their livelihoods…”
(Protestia) Christian band The Newsboys revealed this past Sunday that they were recently dropped by their record label, 
“If Iran starts printing billions of dollars to pay for rebuilding their enrichment program, the more than 35% inflation rate already being experienced by the Iranian people will skyrocket, bringing with it civil unrest. That’s the last thing the mullahs want.”
