It's Monday, February 23rd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Utah teacher forces student to wash off Ash Wednesday cross A Utah elementary school faced backlash after a teacher told a Catholic student to remove an Ash Wednesday cross from his forehead, a symbol marking the beginning of Lent, reports WHSV TV. Fourth-grader William McLeod had attended church on Ash Wednesday and arrived at Valley View Elementary School in Bountiful, Utah wearing a traditional ash cross.  He said classmates initially questioned him about it, unaware that the ash cross marked the beginning of Jesus' 40 days in the wilderness before the beginning of His three-year ministry. The boy recalled his teacher asking, “What is that?” He replied, “It's Ash Wednesday. It's the first day of Lent.” She said, “No, it's inappropriate. Go take it off.” In front of his peers, she gave the child a wipe and told him to clean his forehead. McLeod said, “I felt really bad.” His grandmother said he was embarrassed and upset, saying he later went to see the school psychologist “crying.” The Davis School District issued a formal apology, saying the teacher's actions were unacceptable. A spokesman said, “No student should ever be asked or required to remove an ash cross from his or her forehead.” The teacher later apologized. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 against Trump tariffs On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 against President Donald Trump's sweeping global tariffs, striking down a central part of his economic agenda, reports The Western Journal. TRUMP: “The Supreme Court's ruling on tariffs is deeply disappointing. I'm ashamed of certain members of the court, absolutely ashamed, for not having the courage to do what's right for our country.” The case focused on tariffs President Trump imposed under a 1977 emergency powers law known as the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. He used that law to impose reciprocal tariffs on most countries beginning last year. Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority that the International Emergency Economic Powers Act “does not authorize the President to impose tariffs.” Associate Justice Amy Barrett and Neil Gorsuch sided with Roberts and the court's three liberals. However, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, and Brett Kavanaugh dissented, reports the Associated Press. President Trump imposes new tariff using different authority On Truth Social, President Trump wrote, “I would like to thank and congratulate Justices Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh for your strength, wisdom, and love of our country, which is right now very proud of you. “When you read the dissenting opinions, there is no way that anyone can argue against them. Foreign Countries that have been ripping us off for years are ecstatic, and dancing in the streets — But they won't be dancing for long!” Kavanaugh wrote, “The decision might not substantially constrain a President's ability to order tariffs going forward. That is because numerous other federal statutes authorize the President to impose tariffs and might justify most (if not all) of the tariffs issued in this case. ... Those statutes include, for example, the Trade Expansion Act of 1962 (Section 232); the Trade Act of 1974 (Sections 122, 201, and 301); and the Tariff Act of 1930 (Section 338).” TRUMP:  “Other alternatives will now be used to replace the ones that the court incorrectly rejected. Great alternatives. Could be more money. We'll take in more money.” Inspired by Judge Brett Kavanaugh's dissent, President Trump imposed a new 10% global tariff the same day of the Supreme Court decision last Friday, using Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974, reports NewsNation. GOP Rep. Tony Gonzales had affair with aide who set herself on fire U.S. Republican Congressman Tony Gonzales of Texas engaged in a romantic relationship with an aide who died last year by setting herself on fire outside her Uvalde home, according to a text message and people close to the aide and her family, reports the San Antonio Express-News. Both she and Gonzales were married to other people at the time of the alleged affair. A former staffer in Gonzales' district office, who worked closely with the aide, Regina Ann Santos-Aviles, said she told him they had an affair in 2024, and that she spiraled into a depression after her husband discovered the relationship and Gonzales abruptly ended their affair. Exodus 20:14 says, “You shall not commit adultery.” He also shared with the San Antonio Express-News a screenshot of a text message from Regina in which she acknowledged having an “affair with our boss.” The staffer, who asked not to be named, citing a fear of retaliation, faulted Gonzales' office for failing to intervene, saying he warned the congressman's district director months before Regina's fiery suicide that he was concerned about her well-being. He described her as his “best friend” and said their families knew each other. Gonzales, a Republican representing Texas' 23rd Congressional District, is currently seeking re-election in a contested primary.  The San Antonio Express-News, which had initially endorsed Gonzales in the March 3rd Republican primary, recently withdrew its endorsement. In the Republican Primary for Congress in District 23, many South Texans are looking to support Francisco “Quico” Canseco during early voting or on Election Day, Tuesday, March 3rd. Texas bobsled gold medalist almost quit And finally, (audio of Olympics theme song) It was a couple of weeks before Christmas. Elana Meyers Taylor, age 41, was in Norway, prepping for a World Cup bobsled weekend. Things were going horribly. Her body was hurting, she wondered if she was doing right by her two deaf children, and the racing results were, well, bad, reports the San Antonio Express-News. So, she texted her husband. The message: I'm done.  She wrote, “This is just impossible. It's never going to work.” She was 10th in the World Cup monobob standings. Eight women won medals on the circuit this winter and she wasn't one of them. Her average finish was 10th and her result during a race on the Olympic track in November was 19th — a whopping 2.43 seconds behind the winning time. FEMALE ANNOUNCER: “She had probably her worst season of monobob in her life.” Her husband, former bobsledder Nic Taylor, is now a performance coach and works with the NBA's San Antonio Spurs. When a Spurs player — the couple won't say who — learned Elana was struggling, he gifted Nic a plane ticket and told him, “Go to Norway immediately!” So, Nic flew to Norway to encourage his wife in person after those discouraging texts to talk her out of quitting.  That strengthened Elana's resolve to compete. Listen to the Olympics announcer during Elana's bobsled run. MALE ANNOUNCER: “Elana Myers Taylor has this magical moment to win another Olympic medal and potentially gold. Her husband Nick and sons, Noah and Nico, are here in the crowd. “This is a promising run for Elana Myers Taylor. Sixteen-hundredths of a second ahead of Kaillie Humphries, 12-hundredths of a second ahead. Elana Myers Taylor has never won a gold medal at the Olympics. She has now. It's gold for the United States, and that elusive gold medal for Eleanor Myers Taylor, is elusive no more. The most prolific female bobsledder in history.” At 41, she became the oldest woman to win an individual gold medal in Winter Games history. It was her sixth Olympic medal. She said, “I was determined to keep fighting, determined to just put down the best runs I could. And look what happened. There were so many moments during this entire season, during this past four years, that I thought it wasn't possible.” And now you know the rest of the story. In 1 Corinthians 9:24, the Apostle Paul asked, “Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize.” Or, in Elana Meyers Taylor's case, slide in such a way as to get the prize.

The crew stumbles back into the tunnel this week because apparently this show still has legs.On this episode, they tackle the hard questions. Like which Detroit City FC players would survive a Winter Olympics crossover. Bobsled? Curling? Speed skating? The scouting reports are questionable and the confidence is high.They also ask whether we should actually be impressed with what the men's side did this offseason. Is this real progress or are the preseason friendlies a precursor for another milquetoast offensive strategy combined with problems on the backline? The roster moves and early performances get picked apart accordingly.The women's MASLW season gets real attention too, including how the squad is shaping up and why the supporters continue to show up in ways that matter. That includes meaningful charity work to support immigrants in the community.And yes, there is some frustration over the MASLW's reluctance to give credit where it is due. Tunnel chaos. Mild outrage. Winter sports takes no one requested. Same energy as always.⸻

No Censorship.  Watch Us Here: linktapgo.com/thedumshow thedumshow.com This episode of The Don't Unfriend Me Show delivered fireworks from the start as Matt went head-to-head with longtime critic Dusty Dinkelman in a heated confrontation that quickly moved from policy debate to personal accusations. What began as a discussion on legal definitions, presidential pardons, and January 6th spiraled into disputes over past recordings, character attacks, and threats of legal action. After the clash, the show pivoted to a deep dive into Iran's military posture, analyzing satellite imagery, troop movements, and potential U.S. and Israeli strategy, with Matt and Leeroy arguing that any intervention would be swift and decisive. The episode also touched on voter ID, parental rights, and the broader divide between government institutions and everyday Americans. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dum-show--6012883/support.

After the competition, he opened up about the Olympic pressure, but said he was proud to finish. Kelly O'Grady reports on how athletes prepare for the pressure of the Olympics. When asked about President Trump's call to nationalize elections, Republican House Majority Whip Tom Emmer of Minnesota says "we have a state-based elections system. It is going to remain that way." On "CBS Mornings" he also blames the partial government shutdown on Democrats. They are demanding major changes for ICE agents in exchange for the votes to approve the spending bill. Behavioral researcher Shadé Zahrai, who has coached Fortune 500 leaders, says the missing link to building confidence is self acceptance. She speaks with "CBS Mornings" about steps to self acceptance and how self worth plays a role.

Alpine Skiing:  Hang onto truck while wearing cowboy boots. Biathlon:  Shooting coyotes... aka Predator Control! Michigan's Shortest Fishing Season Ends in Just 48 Minutes Michigan's 2026 Black Lake sturgeon fishing season came and went fast — really fast. The season opened at 8 a.m. on Saturday, Feb. 7, and wrapped up just 48 minutes later when the six-fish quota was reached in Cheboygan and Presque Isle counties. According to the Department of Natural Resources, anglers landed fish starting at 8:07 a.m., with the final sturgeon harvested right at 8:48. In total, 679 anglers were registered, all competing in what's known as the shortest fishing season in the state. The largest catch was a 67-inch female sturgeon weighing just over 79 pounds. The other five fish ranged from about 53 to 64 inches long, weighing between 40 and 78 pounds. Each angler was allowed to keep just one fish and had to report it immediately. The season automatically closed once the sixth fish was taken, with anglers alerted by text and by DNR staff on the ice. Black Lake's sturgeon season is famous for its speed. Last year it lasted only 17 minutes, while in 2023 it stretched to just over an hour. In 2024, the season was canceled entirely because of unsafe ice. Lake sturgeon are among the oldest fish species in the Great Lakes, and their numbers dropped sharply in the past due to overfishing and habitat loss. Strict regulations and decades of restoration work have helped rebuild the population, allowing Michigan to continue this tightly controlled, blink-and-you-miss-it fishing tradition. Reference: https://www.woodtv.com/news/michigan/2026-lake-sturgeon-season-takes-48-minutes-to-hit-limit/ Duck Hunters Rescued After Becoming Trapped in Frozen Maryland River A dramatic helicopter rescue occurred January 31 when six duck hunters became stranded in the frozen Nanticoke River in Maryland on the final day of duck season. Natural Resources Police and Wildlife and Heritage Service crews were called out around 6:30 p.m. after the hunters' boat became inoperable in icy conditions. Temperatures were in the teens and low 20s, with strong winds, and thick ice prevented local fire crews from reaching them by water or boat ramp. Officials believe the hunters had completed their hunt and were heading back when they ran into trouble — either mechanical issues or ice that moved in after the shoot. A helicopter crew was already nearby but decided it was too dangerous to hoist the hunters due to high winds. Instead, rescuers launched an airboat from a nearby campground. The river is about a half-mile wide at that location, a well-known but risky late-season duck hunting area. All six hunters were safely brought back in two trips, checked by EMS, and returned to their vehicles. While it's unclear what happened to their boat — or whether they harvested any ducks — officials say it's a last-day hunt the group won't forget, and one they were fortunate to survive.

O bobsled brasileiro chega ao maior palco do esporte mundial, os Jogos Olímpicos de Inverno de Milão-Cortina 2026, sustentado por dois pilares fundamentais: experiência e resiliência. Edson Bindilatti e Davidson de Souza representam mais do que a busca por resultados – são símbolos de uma modalidade construída com sacrifício, identidade e espírito coletivo. Luciana Quaresma, especial para a RFI em Milão Quando a convocação olímpica foi confirmada, Bindilatti sentiu o impacto de quem já percorreu esse caminho diversas vezes. Aos 46 anos, ele vai disputar sua sexta edição de Jogos Olímpicos, um feito raro no esporte brasileiro – ainda mais em uma modalidade de inverno. “Passa um filme na cabeça. Representar o Brasil é um prazer imenso, e ter essa oportunidade pela sexta vez é algo para poucos”, afirma. Mais do que a longevidade, chama atenção a forma como ele chega a este ciclo olímpico. Em plena alta performance, Bindilatti garante estar na melhor condição da carreira. “Eu sempre me preparei para os Jogos Olímpicos, mas especificamente para esse, chego melhor do que nos outros. Isso prova que idade é apenas um número.” Liderança dentro e fora do trenó Hoje, Bindilatti exerce um papel central no time. Ao longo dos anos, acumulou conhecimento técnico e estratégico que transformou sua função: além de atleta, tornou-se mentor das novas gerações. “Antes, até aprender como mexer no trenó, fazer ajustes, pilotar, era muito mais difícil. Hoje, pela nossa expertise, os atletas aprendem muito mais rápido. Eu consigo ajudar não só na parte física e técnica, mas também na mental”, explica. Essa liderança se reflete na formação do futuro da equipe. Um dos exemplos é Gustavo Ferreira, jovem atleta convocado para acompanhar o grupo em Milão-Cortina, já pensando no ciclo olímpico de 2030. “A ideia é ele sentir o peso de um Jogos Olímpicos agora, para chegar muito mais maduro no próximo ciclo.” Davidson: a batalha interior e a identidade brasileira Do outro lado do trenó, Davidson de Souza , conhecido como Boka, chega a mais uma Olimpíada com a bagagem de quem conhece o bobsled em seus limites físicos, mentais e emocionais. São 12 anos dedicados à modalidade, marcados por transições, quedas e reconstruções. No imaginário do atleta, a cena da largada se repete como um ritual: o corpo em tensão máxima, a explosão muscular antes da descida. “Nada está acabado”, resume. Vindo do atletismo, Davidson faz parte da geração que ajudou a construir o bobsled brasileiro a partir da migração de atletas de esportes individuais para uma modalidade coletiva, que exige precisão absoluta e confiança mútua. “O bobsled me fez crescer muito como pessoa. Conviver com o time, treinar, viajar e viver juntos ensina coisas que vão além do esporte”, afirma. Um acidente, um retorno e a vaga olímpica A classificação para Milão-Cortina carrega um peso especial para Davidson. Um ano antes da convocação, ele sofreu um grave acidente, no qual fraturou o fêmur e rompeu quatro músculos da perna. A lesão quase encerrou sua trajetória no esporte. O retorno exigiu resiliência diária, física e mental. “Foi uma trajetória gigantesca até chegar aqui.”  Mesmo com passaporte canadense, Davidson não abre mão da própria identidade. “Eu sou brasileiro e vou morrer brasileiro. Representar o Brasil é uma honra imensa.” Velocidade, risco e controle mental No bobsled, as descidas podem chegar a 150 km/h. Quedas e acidentes fazem parte da modalidade, mas não interferem no foco da equipe. “O nível mental que a gente tem hoje é muito alto. Nada nos tira do foco”, garante Davidson. Treinos e competições em St. Moritz, na Suíça, consolidaram a confiança do grupo para enfrentar qualquer cenário em Cortina d'Ampezzo. Para Bindilatti, o suporte familiar é a base que sustenta a carreira. Casado e pai de duas crianças – uma filha de 7 anos e um filho de 10 –, ele admite que a distância pesa, mas é compensada pela parceria e pela tecnologia. “O que me move é o amor e o suporte da minha família. Isso me permite fazer o que me propus da melhor forma possível.” Pensando no legado, ele também idealizou um centro de treinamento de bobsled e skeleton no Brasil, com foco no alto rendimento e no impacto social. O projeto chegou a iniciar obras em São Caetano, mas hoje aguarda recursos para ser concluído. “É uma forma de devolver tudo o que o esporte me deu, formando novos atletas e dando oportunidades.” Fora das pistas, cultura e música O bobsled também moldou a identidade de Davidson fora da pista. Artista e compositor, ele é o autor do hino do bobsled brasileiro, criado a partir das vivências com o time. A música segue presente na preparação dos atletas até hoje. “Saber que isso motiva alguém a se dedicar um pouco mais é sensacional”, diz ele. Às vésperas de Milão-Cortina 2026, Edson Bindilatti e Davidson de Souza representam gerações, histórias e trajetórias distintas, unidas por um mesmo propósito: levar o Brasil ao gelo com dignidade, competitividade e identidade. Entre experiência e superação, liderança e pertencimento, o bobsled brasileiro chega à Olimpíada sustentado por atletas que transformaram um esporte improvável em projeto de vida – e em símbolo de resiliência olímpica.

Super Bowl is set! Prop Bets for you! Winter Olympics are here! Plus...whose fans are worse off?

Big Olympic news! The Jamaican bobsled team has made it back into the Winter Olympics for 2026. If you're a "Cool Runnings" fan you know how important this is. This morning we checked in with our Olympic correspondent, mother-in-law Sherrie, to get her take on the big news and see what other stories she is following.

Carsten Vissering was an absolute force during his time in the pool. Breaking national high school and age records as a teenager, he went on to swim for the University of Southern California in college. As a Trojan, Vissering won an NCAA title in 2018 as a part of the 200 medley relay and 2 Pac-12 Titles. Once Vissering walked away from swimming, though, he wasn't done with elite sport. After aquatic retirement, Vissering still wanted to compete and ended up stumbling into bobsledding in 2022. He made the US national team and worked his way up the ranks until, earlier this month, he qualified for the 2026 US Olympic team. Vissering will compete next month in Milan Cortina dawning the Red, White, and Blue. SwimSwam sat down with the now winter athlete to discuss what training, competition, and the mental side of bobsledding is all about. Vissering details the nuances and hardships of the sport. He also tells his personal side of the story, sharing his drive to still compete, the will to learn and grow in a new sport, and the balance it takes to be a full-time athlete and work at a Big Four consulting firm.

Bobsled legend Elana Meyers Taylor joins Sarah to discuss battling through her toughest season yet to qualify for her fifth Olympics and how she's approaching what might be her last chance at winning gold. They discuss why heptathletes make the best push athletes, how she’s recovering from the scariest crash of her career, and her concerns around the long-term sustainability of the sport of bobsled. Plus, cashing in on the charity stripe, an early contender for fit of the year, and a few players we’re thankful to see touch grass again.

In this episode, Chuck Thuss welcomes former Team USA bobsledder William Person for a raw and deeply revealing conversation about life after elite sport, the hidden toll of repeated head trauma, and the unexpected therapy that helped pull him back from the brink. William spent nine seasons competing at the highest level, enduring extreme G-forces, repeated impacts, and the emotional strain that so many athletes carry in silence. When the symptoms of CTE began to take over his life, William found himself in a dark, isolated spiral — until one piece of information, and one unexpected influence, helped him turn everything around. His comeback is nothing short of remarkable, and it is now fueling a mission to help veterans, athletes, and everyday people find relief and hope. Guest Bio William Person is a former nine-year Team USA Bobsled athlete whose career left him battling the devastating effects of CTE. At his lowest point, he was unable to function, lost in confusion, depression, and cognitive decline. Everything changed when he discovered Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, which restored clarity, color, and hope back into his life. Today, William is dedicated to raising awareness about brain injury in sports and the military, and he is working to launch a nonprofit CTE Recovery Center to provide healing support for athletes and veterans at no cost. You'll hear About The extreme G-forces and crashes that contributed to William's head trauma The silent suffering many athletes experience long after retirement How his symptoms escalated into cognitive decline, depression, and hopelessness The discovery of hyperbaric oxygen therapy and why it changed everything His mission to help veterans and athletes access life-saving care Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 01:26 How Joe Namath's Story Helped Spark William's Recovery 03:19 From Track Athlete to Team USA Bobsledder 05:29 What Life Is Really Like Inside a Bobsled 06:54 Understanding G-Forces and the Hidden Toll on the Brain 09:05 Crashes, Head Trauma, and Silent Suffering 11:01 The Symptoms: Fog, Memory Loss, Depression, and Confusion 13:53 Hitting Rock Bottom and Praying for Relief 16:50 The Article That Changed Everything 20:15 Discovering Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy and Immediate Results 23:23 Managing Symptoms, Daily Challenges, and Misunderstood Concussions 26:25 William's Mission to Create the American Post-Concussion Wellness Center 29:07 Why Veterans and Athletes Desperately Need Better Support 32:21 The Larger Crisis: CTE, Suicides, and Unseen Struggles 35:48 William's Message to Anyone Feeling Hopeless 37:50 Chuck's Closing Reflections Chuck's Challenge This week, check in on someone who may be struggling behind the scenes.

Send us a textThis discussion centers on William Person's experiences as a former Team USA bobsledder and the significant impact of brain injuries, particularly chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), on athletes. William shares his personal journey, including his transition from sprinting to bobsledding and the physical and mental challenges he faced in the sport. He highlighted the prevalence of micro concussions and the cumulative damage they can cause, emphasizing the need for greater awareness and communication about these risks among athletes.William recounts the emotional toll of losing a teammate to suicide linked to CTE, which prompted him to advocate for better mental health support within the athletic community. He expressed frustration over the silence surrounding mental health issues and the lack of proactive measures to address them. The conversation also touched on the alarming connection between untreated CTE symptoms and incidents of violence, including mass shootings, underscoring the urgency of raising awareness and implementing preventive strategies.In addition to discussing his advocacy efforts, William details his ongoing class action lawsuit against U.S.A Bobsled aimed at ensuring athletes are informed about the risks associated with bobsledding. He clarified that the lawsuit is not about personal financial gain but rather about protecting athletes and promoting transparency regarding potential dangers. William also shares his struggles with accessing effective treatment for CTE. He emphasizs the importance of providing affordable treatment options for those affected by CTE and the need for continued advocacy and support for athletes and veterans. Links:https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/29/sports/bobsled-brain-injuries-lawsuit.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/26/sports/olympics/olympics-bobsled-suicide-brain-injuries.htmlhttps://gofund.me/e68951d2https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/08/us/navy-pilot-brain-injury-topgun.htmlhttps://youtu.be/JKY2vpJYcug?feature=sharedhttps://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMPnEyRF/Sponsored by BluApple: https://thebluapple.com?sca_ref=8837292.HZGjjNgCncCode: Brandi15

What happens when you refuse to let the world put you in a box? Marine Corps officer Riley Compton reveals the extraordinary journey that unfolded when she decided to pursue every passion without limitation.Riley's story begins in the Midwest, where she never saw women serving in the military while growing up. After earning a Division I softball scholarship, a chance encounter with a Marine recruiter opened doors she never knew existed. What followed was a remarkable balancing act—commissioning as a Marine officer while simultaneously pursuing a spot on Team USA's bobsled team.For five years, Riley competed internationally in bobsled, achieving a world ranking of 14th and winning a North American Cup gold medal, all while maintaining her active duty status. When a deployment opportunity to Baghdad arose, she volunteered for a billet typically filled by officers ranking above her. Upon returning from deployment, she went straight from the combat zone to competing on the world's fastest bobsled track in Canada—a testament to her unwavering dedication and resilience.The conversation explores Riley's difficult decision to step away from bobsledding to focus on her Marine Corps career, her upcoming marriage to a Royal Marine, and her bestselling children's book "If You Can Dream It, Be It." With refreshing candor, she shares the behind-the-scenes struggles of publishing, including countless rejections, while maintaining her "never quit" mentality.What makes Riley's perspective particularly valuable is her humility. Despite her achievements across multiple domains, she emphasizes that anyone can follow a similar path with enough courage and persistence. As she puts it, "Your job, the things you do, is what you do. It's not who you are." Her definition of wealth—measured in relationships, experiences, and discipline rather than financial gain—offers a refreshing counterpoint to conventional success metrics.Ready to break out of your own self-imposed limitations?
