The giant tax-cuts-and-spending package passed by Congressional Republicans will have major ramifications for every state in the country, but Colorado is one of the first place it's really being felt. Thanks to the state's unusual way of handling its finances, the federal tax cuts immediately threw Colorado's finances way out of whack.That was the main reason lawmakers recently came back to the Capitol in August for a high temperature, high stakes special session. But grueling fights over AI regulations and a painful public confrontation between House leaders at times made the budget debates feel like a secondary concern.CPR's Bente Birkeland, The Colorado Sun's Jesse Paul and KUNC's Lucas Brady Woods discuss the bills that did, and did not, make it past the finish line over the six-day special legislative session. They also dig into the growing chasm between the two caucuses in the House, and what it could mean for  the regular session in the new year. Read CCNA special session coverage: From CPR News: Colorado House condemns former GOP lawmaker for unprofessional behavior From The Colorado Sun: What the Colorado legislature did during its special session to tackle a $750M budget hole From KUNC News: Colorado Democrats move to protect SNAP benefits and Planned Parenthood care From The Colorado Sun: Colorado lawmakers abandon special session effort to tweak AI law, will push back start date to June 2026 From CPR News: Are legislative special sessions even special any more?

Discover how redistricting battles could shape the future of American democracy and the 2026 midterm elections. Professor Ned Foley of The Ohio State University, Moritz College of Law, breaks down the Texas redistricting controversy, the mechanics of gerrymandering, and the legal and political standoff between Democrats and Republicans—revealing the high-stakes implications for voters, representation, and the balance of power. As the November 2026 mid-term elections inch closer and closer, the redistricting of states are at the forefront of controversy. President Trump created a political firestorm when he asked Governor Abbott & Texas Republicans to redraw voting maps that would add  five more congressional seats for the GOP. This new map targeted Democratic U.S. House members in the Austin, Dallas, and Houston metro areas and in South Texas. In protest, Texas Democrat state representatives fled Texas, hopped a plane to a few Blue states, and refused to vote on the proposed map.  On August 18th, the Democrats returned to the Capitol, after Governor Abbott took legal action against them, but not without making their mark and putting a spotlight on redistricting. In response to the political chaos in Texas, Governor of California, Gavin Newson, had his own strategy in mind, by proposing California congressional maps, which would add five Democratic seats, offsetting Texas gains. On this episode of Lawyer 2 Lawyer, Craig joins returning guest Professor Ned Foley,  Ebersold Chair in Constitutional Law & Director of Election Law at The Ohio State University, Moritz College of Law . Craig & Ned discuss the recent Texas redistricting controversy, gerrymanderying, the current standoff between Democrats and Republicans, legalities, and how all of this could impact the 2026 midterm elections.   Mentioned in this Episode: Common Ground Democracy

The DNC's summer convention in Minneapolis looked more like a Star Trek convention than a political party that listens to the American people. How far can the left bow to the wildly dangerous progressive bullies? Gays Against Groomers founder Jaimee Michell joins us live with her diagnosis of the left's odd penchant for weird progressives. DC's mayor is forced to admit Trump's crime crackdown has actually cracked down on Capitol city crime. Amazing.

Students are heading back to class - but school districts haven’t seen a cent from the state in two months. That drove the state's largest teachers' union to the state Capitol. Pennsylvania’s state budget delay and uncertainty are starting to cause a strain for some of the state’s nonprofits as well. A rash of hoax calls about active shooters on at least a dozen college campuses around the U.S. has spread fear among students as the school year begins. A judge in Lebanon County has upheld the conviction and sentence of a woman for her part in the death of a young boy. A federal appeals court says it's unconstitutional for Pennsylvania to throw out mail-in ballots simply because the voter didn’t write an accurate date on the return envelope. Lancaster County is at an increased risk for outbreaks of preventable diseases this fall. That's according to a doctor of pediatric infectious diseases with Penn State Health Children's Hospital. Geisinger Lewistown Hospital is announcing a 5-million-dollar renovation is complete. In uncertain times, our community counts on facts, not noise.

On this episode of Right on Radio host Jeff is joined by John Brisson of "We've Read the Document" for a wide-ranging news update and analysis of recent political and geopolitical developments. The show opens with the Word on Word segment, where Jeff and listeners choose between two Bible verses — Deuteronomy 31:8 and Isaiah 26:3 — and discuss the role of hope, steadfast mind, and trust in turbulent times. Jeff and John dissect a packed presidential press conference: debates over Trump's health, claims about Operation Warp Speed and its military logistics, and the media narratives around chronic venous insufficiency and heart concerns. They explore allegations linking pandemic programs to deeper operations (Operation Tiberius, Palantir connections), the political theater of the Oval Office (symbolism of ties and when leaders don't wear them), and how predictive programming and choreography shape public perception. The conversation turns to possible preparations for accountability actions: references to “burn bags” and hidden documents, Tulsi Gabbard's remarks, talk of prosecutions and military legal structures (JAG), the specter of martial law and tribunals, and the rhetoric around capital punishment for violence in the Capitol. Jeff and John debate timelines and motives, including a prediction to watch mid-September for consequential developments. International threads include the arrest of El Mayo (Sinaloa cartel), the prospect of declaring Mexico and other nations as narco states, potential military actions in Latin America, and diplomatic theater surrounding a planned Trump meeting with King Charles. They also cover Denmark's recent actions related to COVID operations in Greenland and the broader push to expose global networks tied to trafficking and corruption. Financial and technological shifts are discussed at length: talk of charging George Soros under RICO, Elon Musk's provocative posts, the rumored launch of a Trump-linked stablecoin (World Liberty Financial), and the larger “wealth transfer” narrative tied to AI, robotics, and a nascent digital monetary system — with debate about freedoms, UBI, and the risks of centralized digital control. Throughout, Jeff and John compare differing interpretations — from Trump-as-forerunner to Trump-as-Antichrist — arguing theology, prophecy, and practical consequences while cautioning about who holds power when justice is meted out. The episode closes by inviting listeners to join Right on Radio's Telegram communities and nightly prayer calls, with John sharing where to find his research and channels for continued conversation.

Native American History of Washington, DC (History Press, 2023) by Dr. Armand Lione is a comprehensive recounting at the overlooked history of the Indigenous people who lived in the area for many years before the arrival of colonists. The book, dedicated to increasing public awareness of this history, aims to fill the historical gap that has long been ignored in the nation's capital. Lione, a toxicologist and historian, began his research after being inspired by the public acknowledgment of Indigenous people in Melbourne, Australia. The book's central argument is that the history of Native Americans in Washington, DC, has been essentially "overlooked" or "erased from public view". Lione's research debunks the common "myth of a swamp," which suggests the land was empty before the capital was founded. Instead, he presents extensive evidence of a rich Native presence, focusing on the Anacostan people of the Piscataway tribe. The author meticulously documents numerous archaeological sites and artifacts found throughout the city. These findings prove that the land was inhabited for centuries. Highlights include: The Native Village Near the Capitol: The book details the findings of archaeologist Samuel Vincent Proudfit, who in the 1880s identified a Native village site just five blocks from the U.S. Capitol, on land that became Garfield Park and the Daniel Carroll estate. The White House Grounds: In the 1970s, construction for a new swimming pool on the White House grounds uncovered seventeen Native American artifacts, including quartzite points and pottery fragments. A High-Status Burial in Foggy Bottom: Archaeological digs for a new highway ramp in 1997 revealed three significant Native sites, including a burial pit with the cremated remains and grave goods of a high-status woman from about 1,200 years ago. This is described as "The most significant prehistoric discovery in the city of Washington". Anacostia-Bolling Military Base: Lione pinpoints the Anacostan chief's village and a Native burial ground to the area that is now the Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling. In 1936, two ossuaries (common burial sites) containing the remains of about 130 individuals were found during airfield expansion. Native Quarries in Northwest DC: The book details two major Native quarries in northwest DC: the Piney Branch Quartzite Quarry and the Rose Hill Soapstone Quarry, where Native Americans worked stone for tools and pots for thousands of years. Lione also explores the historical record of the Anacostans, explaining how their name was derived from a linguistic mistake by English settlers and how the tribe was a hub of traders. The book introduces Henry Fleete, a young English settler who lived with the Anacostans for five years in the 1620s and returned with fluency in their language, later becoming a successful trader. In the epilogue, Lione asks why this rich history has been overlooked. He suggests that a mix of indifference, an underlying shame about colonial history, and a lack of public markers are to blame. The author advocates for actionable steps, such as using Native land acknowledgments, teaching this history in schools, and supporting local Piscataway tribes through donations and land trusts. He created the DC Native History Project to bring this history to public attention and has seen small victories, such as a land acknowledgment at the DC Public Library and the Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling updating its history to include the Anacostan presence. Lione concludes with a call to action for readers to help ensure this history is no longer forgotten. Learn more about your ad choices.

The world of Donald Trump's legal battles has shifted yet again over these past few days, with courtrooms buzzing from Atlanta to Washington, D.C. and even all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court. Let me walk you through what's unfolded, because the headlines haven't stopped and the stakes keep rising.Just last week, Trump claimed victory after a court threw out a massive civil fraud penalty that was hanging over him. That multimillion-dollar judgment stemmed from years of litigation around alleged financial misstatements in his business empire. While Trump declared this a vindication, things remain anything but quiet. There are still plenty of legal clouds on the horizon—especially when it comes to criminal charges tied to the 2020 election.Let's zoom in on the federal election obstruction case, one of the country's most closely watched trials. Jack Smith—the special counsel with the Department of Justice—charged Trump with conspiracy to overturn his loss to Joe Biden. This all ties back to the January 6th Capitol riot, and the allegation is that Trump spread lies about election fraud to pressure state officials and even tried to get then-Vice President Mike Pence to reject the results. Trump pleaded not guilty, but the case became tangled in questions about presidential immunity. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in early 2024 that Trump wasn't immune. He pushed it up to the Supreme Court, which decided in July 2024 that former presidents do have some immunity for their official acts, but not everything.Things took another twist when Jack Smith filed an updated indictment last August, only to later drop the charges in November after Trump won reelection—in part because as a sitting president, he'd be immune from prosecution on at least some charges. By January of this year, Smith issued a detailed report saying there was enough evidence to convict, but action has stalled.Meanwhile in Georgia, the election interference case has been bogged down by drama surrounding Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis—her personal relationship with a special prosecutor even led to her removal by a state appeals court last December. While Georgia's Supreme Court still has to decide if it'll take up an appeal on her removal, six counts have already been thrown out, and Trump still faces ten counts there. Whether that case goes forward during his presidency is completely up in the air.But Trump's legal teams aren't just fighting on criminal fronts. As of yesterday, the Trump administration jumped back into the Supreme Court ring, appealing a federal judge's order demanding that billions in foreign aid be paid out—foreign aid that was frozen by Trump's executive order back in January. Solicitor General John Sauer warned that if the court doesn't intervene, Trump's government will have no choice but to quickly spend billions they want to keep frozen under a review led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio.That is the whirlwind—the cases are overlapping, the legal arguments are novel, and with Trump back in the White House, every trial is a political earthquake. For now, all eyes are on higher courts, and we're all waiting to see what the next headline brings. Thanks for tuning in. Come back next week for more updates.

What's more offensive to Denverites: The fact that a new business opening in Cherry Creek North calls itself a “bodega” or the fact that it's owned by an apparent Trump supporter?

Evidence has emerged that could change our understanding of the 9/11 terrorist attacks more than two decades ago. A 60 Minutes investigation has found that crucial information, initially turned over to the FBI shortly after the attacks, was never shared with the bureau's own field agents or senior intelligence officials. Correspondent Cecilia Vega reports on this evidence, which has come to light amid a lawsuit against the Saudi government filed by families of the nearly 3,000 victims and includes a video of a Saudi national filming the U.S. Capitol, thought to be al-Qaeda's fourth target. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi travels to Costa Mesa, Calif., to meet with Palmer Luckey, the 32-year-old tech billionaire who founded Anduril, a defense products company that makes autonomous weapons, some already in use by the U.S. military and in the war in Ukraine. Alfonsi explores the artificial intelligence that powers Anduril's systems and reports on some of the company's most advanced weapons, including a submarine that operates without sailors. While several international groups refer to lethal autonomous weapons as “killer robots,” Luckey says that these innovations represent the future of warfare. Correspondent Bill Whitaker reports from the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, a Marian shrine in Southern France and the site of 72 medical miracles recognized by the Catholic Church. 60 Minutes goes inside the Lourdes Office of Medical Observations, where world-renowned doctors and researchers conduct decade-long investigations into the dozens of claims of miraculous cures made every year. They determine which cases can be medically explained and which cannot.

Bob Fletcher is the Sheriff of Ramsey County. They kick things off talking about State Fair safety, Sheriff Fletcher says this is the safest place in America for the twelve days duration of the festivities. They touch on their growing drone usage and how officers are set up across the grounds to keep everyone safe. They then wade into Capitol security and the progress that Sheriff Fletcher has worked alongside so many others to make. Chad plays devil's advocate and asks if the push for heightened security is an overreaction. Other topics include Governor Walz potential third term and who could throw their names in their ring, whether he wants help from the National Guard to help clean up crime at this time and who he thinks should be the next County Attorney of Hennepin County.

State representative Walter Hudson chats with Al Travis about the Minneapolis mayoral race, a court ruling that threatens the 'Grand Theft Omnibus' bill shoved through by the Democrat trifecta in 2024, and whether installing metal detectors at the capitol will make any difference in security.Support the show

Before the fascists came, America was finally on the right track. As the saying goes, when you have them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow. That's what happened with our violent but mostly peaceful revolution in the Summer of 2020. When Joe Biden took office, we had complete control over the message and could fire anyone at will if they used the wrong pronoun, doubted the election results, or dared to defy mask mandates or lockdowns. Or even wore a red hat. We erected a high fence around the Capitol. We shunned, destroyed, de-banked, fired, bullied, harassed, and abused anyone who ever supported Trump. The hearts and minds did follow, they had to. We'd laid the groundwork for our revolution decades before. Most Americans were unaware of it. So were most parents until lockdowns. Then, unfortunately, they saw, but by then it was too late. A whole army had come of age and now, had taken to the streets. Conform or else.That's how culture changed, and it changed dramatically, almost overnight — all were in compliance. Movies, fashion, books, the arts, comedy, and yes, museums finally did what they were supposed to do - tell us how to think, what to think, and whose side to be on. America wasn't ready for that back in the 1950s when Communist hunters in government and Hollywood punished those seeking to use culture as a conduit for dogma. It's the Conservatives once again attempting to purge American culture of an infectious mind virus. When Trump gave a speech at Mount Rushmore, it was a warning, like Mein Kampf. America knew where we were headed, but they put him in power anyway four years later. Then again, how do we really know he was elected? Like they say on TikTok, “he wasn't shot, he didn't win, he is on the list.”We know how close the election was. Just as when Hitler won in Germany, Trump's win was close enough to rob him of his mandate to decide America wants change. America doesn't. America is “woke” and likes it that way, and if they don't, too bad.Now, the fascists want the Old America back. They want people to feel proud of their country and be inspired to make the most of themselves, regardless of skin color or class. As if that's even possible in a White Supremacist empire founded by colonizers on stolen land on the backs of oppressed and enslaved people. But we're going to fight them, just like we will fight them, trying to close the border or clean up crime or end the crisis of unhoused persons. Fortunately, we have complete control of the BBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, The New York Times, and the Washington Post. They will project our message - they have to. They know that and have since 2020. And that message will have to be that Trump wants to eradicate all mentions of slavery, pretend it never existed at all. When Jillian Michaels tried to explain to the Good People at CNN that purging the “woke” from the Smithsonian wasn't about erasing slavery, it didn't go so well:But she's a fascist-apologist, which means we must do what we can to exclude her, purge her, and silence her. There is only one point of view allowed in our America. Anyone who tries to criticize us or dismantle what we built over the past 20 years must be destroyed. That is anti-fascism.So that meant she had to go on News Nation to try to further explain what she really meant.It doesn't really matter what Jillian Michaels thinks. What matters is what we tell her to think, and if she doesn't go along with it, she must be punished. We want every child or teenager forced to visit the Smithsonian with their school or their parents to know they should be ashamed of not just the color of their skin (if they are white) but of their country, its history, and its so-called heroes. We want every Black child or teenager who is forced to visit the museum to also know that they are forever and eternal victims; we need them to be. We need an endless supply of oppressed people to continue demonizing the oppressors and preserve our power. Not to mention, raise money from wealthy, guilty white people who need absolution for their sins of wealth and privilege. Otherwise, what's the point?Yes, it's to make everyone feel welcome, but they must know their place as symbols of oppression and never be allowed to rise beyond the menial jobs white people won't take. That keeps them in their lane. It's better than life in the third world. And it helps justify our movement. One exhibit depicts what looks like the Baby Jesus and family caught by border agents while trying to cross over the wall. Art must tell us what to think. This image conveys the migrants as martyrs under an oppressive system. It's a message that we project across all facets of culture under our control. We guide viewers on how to interpret this image and draw a conclusion about America. The message must be that all people who cross the border do so seeking democracy and a decent life. They are good. If you see them as terrorists or rapists or gang members, you are bad. You are a racist. If there is a Sydney Sweeney ad that celebrates “good genes,” well, the Gap will answer it with how we're all supposed to reflect female beauty as every color of the rainbow, because the Sydney Sweeney ad was racist. Here is another exhibit which reflects how we see our protected groups — it's never about achievement. It's only about identity. Identity is achievement. From the White House: I mean, of course, we know that Irish and Italian immigrants were attacked and prevented from voting and working in the US. They were white. But we can't tell that story because it muddies the message. All children need to know is that Benjamin Franklin was a racist. Art should depict any person who is marginalized as saintly and god-like. Here is an example of one of our children who is probably the last generation to know the truth before the fascists came.All school children should learn, as early as possible, about the various identity groups in case they might belong to one — surely they are aware of this even as toddlers. What we used to call a fetish is also now identity:The American History Museum's “LGBTQ+ History” exhibit seeks to “understand evolving and overlapping identities such as lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender, queer, transsexual, transvestite, mahu, homosexual, fluid, invert, urning, third sex, two sex, gender-bender, sapphist, hijra, friend of Dorothy, drag queen/king, and many other experiences.” If this were actual art, there would be an exhibit labeled “The Woke Eye view” and offer some critical thinking of Critical Theory. But that would be blasphemy. Artists have always spoken truth to power, and we have all of the cultural power, so we decide the message. Because identity matters, the transgender fight is on par with Jim Crow in our ideology, so if you remove any of it, it is like you are erasing Black history, too.Illegal immigration is identity. Crime is identity. Theft, carjacking, murder, and rape are identity, unless you're white. Then you drive the news cycle for several weeks as we lament the harms of “white supremacy” on our society.If you try to stop any of it, then you will be screamed at, “F— you! You f—ing fascists! Why are you here? I don't want you in my city!” So said one brave resistance fighter who then, in a fit of pure rage, hurled a footlong sub at the Gestapo then fled the scene. We turned that into art, too. Ordinarily, we might care that the sandwich would make for a pretty good meal for an unhoused person, or that it costs carbon emissions to grow the animal, slaughter it, then drive the meat to Subway, and finally put the sandwich together, probably all labor by people of color or other marginalized groups. We might protest him or cancel him on social media for his carbon footprint. But that would be in ordinary times. These are not ordinary times. Anti-fascism is preventing crime in the cities because policing crime is another form of oppression. Anyone who supports making the streets safer is a fascist. All of the Good White Liberals agree: Fascism is here. Even Bill Maher says so. Sure, he kind of has to because if he doesn't, he might not get invited to the parties anymore. Or his show might be canceled outright. Or maybe he believes it. We get to say what kind of lawfare amounts to fascism. Terry Moran gets to say. Sure, we raided Trump's home and indicted him, took his mug shot. Threw Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro in jail for Contempt of Congress, tried to throw Trump in jail, tried to throw him off the ballot, probably tried to shoot him; we might have de-banked a few and kicked people off social media. Fired them for offensive words, ideas, or headlines. But you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.It all works together. Keep teaching that America is an empire of “white supremacy” and Black and Brown people must turn to crime and drug addiction just to survive it, well, then, we don't want the National Guard in our cities, because what would happen if they cleaned up crime? No crime, no democracy. We need the museum to explain why we need DEI, why we have crime, and why we need to accept crime and homelessness as a part of normal life in a sick and broken country like ours. As long as our country is sick and broken, then our movement is justified. We must eradicate fascism and restore democracy. 2020 was only the beginning. We just need to ensure we have complete control over the young. We want them as early as infancy. We want them in preschool. We want everything they see and everything they learn to be our message. Our America. Was it Orwell who said, “Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past.” That is our fight now. Who controls the present? We need to protect our message that not all are created equal. Our history must remind us every day that we should feel shame about our past, because how else to justify our survival? // This is a public episode.

It's been a dramatic and unprecedented week in American legal and political history, as former President Donald Trump once again dominates headlines with a whirlwind of court activity from coast to coast. The biggest shock came just days ago from New York's appellate court. After months of intense proceedings, this court tossed out the staggering $454 million civil fraud judgment that had loomed over Trump, his family, and his key business associates. Only a year ago, Judge Arthur Engoron had found that the Trump Organization engaged in repeated business fraud—everything from wildly inflating the square footage of Trump's Manhattan penthouse, to overvaluing Mar-a-Lago by listing it as a private family home instead of a social club. In scathing language, Engoron accused Trump and his team of showing “a complete lack of contrition and remorse,” insisting that the evidence of asset inflation by Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Eric Trump “leap off the page and shock the conscience.” Trump, for his part, railed against what he called a politically motivated attack, declaring himself “an innocent man” during a fiery closing statement last year and insisting that New York Attorney General Letitia James was motivated by political ambition.But this week, that enormous financial threat disappeared in a legal instant, as the appeals court found critical fault with the earlier decision and threw it out. Trump quickly celebrated the turnabout, telling supporters and reporters, “They stole $550 million from me with a fake case—and it was overturned. They said this was a fake case.” Yet, the court left in place some restrictions on Trump's business leadership, reminding everyone that the legal saga isn't truly over.The twists don't end in New York. On the federal front, the story of Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election continues to evolve. The criminal case, once overseen by Special Counsel Jack Smith, had charged Trump with conspiracy to overturn his defeat and for actions leading up to the January 6th Capitol riots. The case set a historical precedent: never before had a former president faced criminal indictment for acts committed in office. Battles over legal immunity wound up before the U.S. Supreme Court, which in July 2024 ruled that former presidents do enjoy “some immunity” for official acts. In a practical sense, this suggested that prosecuting a president—current or former—would always be a labyrinthine challenge.Then, as 2024 drew to a close and Trump secured re-election, Jack Smith dropped the prosecution, citing presidential immunity for a sitting president. Smith's final report left no doubt, though—the evidence, he argued, would have warranted conviction if the case could proceed. Meanwhile, in the Georgia election interference case, the prosecution found itself mired in controversy when Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was disqualified due to personal entanglements, while Trump continues to face counts that legal observers admit may languish unresolved during his new term.Out west, a quieter but significant university lawsuit against Trump presses on, with hearings and deadlines marking the calendar, but these cases remain largely on the periphery compared to the headline-grabbing criminal and civil actions swirling around Donald Trump.I want to thank you all for tuning in—this has been a whirlwind of courtrooms, controversy, and history in the making.

In just the last few days, the legal tides for Donald Trump, the former President and current political heavyweight, have shifted in dramatic ways, pulling millions of Americans back to the edge of their seats. Let me take you there. Yesterday, in New York, the state appeals court rocked the headlines by throwing out the massive $454 million civil fraud judgment against Trump, his family, and his business empire. That judgment originally came out of a three-month trial in 2024, where Judge Arthur Engoron found Trump liable for a decade of business fraud, saying he'd grossly inflated his net worth to land better deals. The details, at the time, were damning: the judge accused Trump of overstating the size of his penthouse and misrepresenting his Mar-a-Lago estate—not as a social club, which it is—but as a private home. Engoron was unsparing, describing the fraud as offenses that 'leap off the page and shock the conscience.'Yesterday's appeals court ruling wiped out the financial penalty but left the underlying finding of business fraud in place. Still, Trump celebrated it as a rare victory in a marathon of courtroom battles while New York's Attorney General Letitia James promptly announced she'll be appealing, doubling down that Trump's conduct can't simply, in her words, 'disappear by judicial pen stroke.' News outlets like ABC News and Click On Detroit both underscored the stakes—it's a major win for Trump, but not an acquittal.Meanwhile, Trump's legal calendar stretches well beyond Manhattan. Consider his federal election obstruction case, shepherded for months by Special Counsel Jack Smith. Smith charged Trump with conspiracy to overturn his 2020 defeat, including his role in the January 6th attack on the Capitol. Trump pleaded not guilty, but the legal twists were dizzying. A Supreme Court decision in July 2024 said ex-presidents have 'some immunity' for official acts while in office, but the story didn't end there. After Trump won reelection, Smith dropped the charges, declaring a sitting president immune from criminal prosecution. Smith's own report insisted there was enough evidence for conviction, but the case remains in limbo—its future uncertain without precedent and shrouded in constitutional debate.Georgia's case against Trump, calling into question his attempts to pressure officials there, has been just as turbulent. After scandal around District Attorney Fani Willis was revealed—specifically, her relationship with a special prosecutor she'd hired—she was removed from the case by a state appeals court. Willis is appealing, and the Georgia Supreme Court has yet to decide if they'll take up the matter. As of January, only ten counts remain against Trump there, while six others were dismissed.Talk about a whirlwind. Trump is racking up both setbacks and victories—yesterday saw fortune swing to his side in New York, even as long legal shadows linger in Georgia and Washington, D.C.Thanks for tuning in and following these pivotal moments together.

As Donald Trump's deployment of National Guard troops in Washington continued on Wednesday, protesters booed Vice President JD Vance during a photo op with the guardsmen stationed in the city. People jeered Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller as they visited Union Station, blocks from the U.S. Capitol which has seen it's police federalized in a fake claim of a crime wave.

It's Thursday, August 21st, A.D. 2025. 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 Jonathan Clark Muslims beat Christian convert and take his wife and six kids An Islamic teacher in Uganda, who converted to Christianity, suffered persecution from his own family recently. Thirty-nine-year old Wambuzi Maka Uthman was at a mosque earlier this month when he received a vision about repentance. On his way home, he met a pastor and learned about Jesus.  Uthman told Morning Star News, “I then understood that it was [Jesus] Who had sent me to my fellow Muslims to repent. … I was so happy beyond expectations as I developed a deeper love for Jesus.”  Uthman began telling his family and neighbors about the Gospel.  In response, his extended family beat him and destroyed his house.  While he received treatment at the hospital, his wife took their six children with her to live with relatives. Such persecution is common for Muslims who turn to Christ in Uganda.  In Luke 18:29-30, Jesus said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God, who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and in the age to come eternal life.” State Department: Human rights in United Kingdom have worsened Last Tuesday, the U.S. State Department released its “2024 Country Reports on Human Rights Practices.” The report noted that the human rights situation in the United Kingdom worsened last year. For example, the U.K. restricts free speech near abortion mills. Citizens have faced arrest simply for silent prayer inside such “buffer zones.” = Lorcan Price with Alliance Defending Freedom International said, “It's plain to see that the censorship crisis is worsening in the UK – from citizens being arrested and prosecuted just for praying in their heads, to the Online Safety Act clamping down on free expression online.” Surge of young Brits trusting in God Speaking of England, the country is witnessing a surge in the number of young adults who believe in God.  A new YouGov poll found 37% of Brits, between the ages of 18 and 24, believe in God. That's up from 22% in 2019, and it's higher than any other age group.  A YouGov study from earlier this year found that young adults are also attending church more. Sixteen percent attend at least once per month now, up from 4% in 2018. 5 VA schools lose federal funding over pro-transgender policies In the United States, the Trump administration is cutting federal funding to five northern Virginia school districts over their transgender bathroom policies, reports the Associated Press.  U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon  said the districts are “choosing to abide by woke gender ideology in place of federal law. … Today's accountability measures are necessary because they have stubbornly refused to provide a safe environment for young women in their schools.” Shockingly,  Life News reports that one of the school districts even arranged and bankrolled abortions for girls without their parents' knowledge.  Trump hopes to get in Heaven by saving Russian/Ukrainian lives President Donald Trump gave a phone interview to “Fox & Friends” on Tuesday. Trump said he wants to save thousands of lives by helping to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. He even said he hopes that will help him get to Heaven.  Listen.   TRUMP: “If I can save 7,000 people a week from being killed, I think that's a pretty, I want to try and get to Heaven, if possible. I'm hearing I'm not doing well. I'm really at the bottom of the totem pole. If I can get to Heaven, this will be one of the reasons.” While some initially concluded that President Trump was revealing a physical health crisis when he said, “I hear I'm not doing well.”  It becomes clear that he is referring to his spiritual health Evangelist Franklin Graham responded on Facebook. He wrote, “We do get to Heaven by good works—not by our own good works, but by the perfect work of God's Son, Jesus Christ. … That's how one gets to Heaven—not by our good works, but by His.” In Ephesians 2:8-9, the Apostle Paul wrote, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” In other words, no matter how many lives President Trump might save by helping to end the Russian-Ukrainian War, his lifesaving action will not save him from Hell.   He can only be assured of an eternal address in Heaven if he confesses his sins and trusts Jesus Christ as Savior. (Romans 10:9) Texas House passes Trump redistricting plan On Wednesday, the Texas House passed a new congressional map  that stands to boost Republicans' power in Congress, overcoming weeks of protests from Texas House Democrats who fled the state to stall a vote on the mid-cycle redistricting, reports the San Antonio Express-News. The new map, ordered up by President Donald Trump and endorsed by Republican Texas Governor Greg Abbott, would wipe out five Democratic-held congressional districts in Austin, Dallas, Houston and South Texas. It passed the chamber, 88-52, along party lines. Texas State Rep. Todd Hunter, a Corpus Christi Republican and the bill's author, said, “The Supreme Court says we can use political partisanship to do congressional redistricting. We will push forward." The vote came after Republicans took extraordinary steps to push the bill over the finish line. On Monday, when dozens of quorum-busting Democrats returned to the Capitol in Austin, Republican House leadership refused to let them leave without state trooper escorts who would “ensure their return” for Wednesday's votes. On Wednesday, Democrats offered up a dozen amendments seeking to kill or amend the bill, all of which were unsuccessful. The map now heads to the Texas Senate, which is expected to quickly pass it, and then to Texas Governor Greg Abbott who will sign it.  Bible-based character education comes to 34 states And finally, a record number of students will receive Bible-based character education during public school hours this coming year. LifeWise Academy is providing the Bible programs under religious release time laws in 34 states. The ministry estimates it will serve nearly 100,000 students in the 2025-26 school year. Joel Penton is the CEO of LifeWise Academy. He said, “Demand for LifeWise is surging, and we couldn't be more excited to see families taking advantage of our programming, from urban areas to remote towns.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, August 21st, in the year of our Lord 2025. Follow us on X or subscribe for free by Spotify, Amazon Music, or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus (Adam@TheWorldview.com).

When the Soviet Union collapsed, Frances Fukuyama famously declared that we had reached the “end of history.” He meant that the big arguments, the major ideological struggles, were now all in the past, and that liberal democracy would prevail from then on. The rest would be just cordial arguments about policy. That peaceful kingdom has obviously not come to pass. Some might argue that Fukuyama's core thesis is still true. Liberal democracy lacks a coherent, universal rival. No alternative ideology has matched its global appeal or institutional resilience. Even authoritarian regimes adopt democratic trappings (e.g., elections in Russia) to gain legitimacy, implicitly acknowledging liberal democracy's normative power. That said, Fukuyama clearly underestimated internal challenges within democracies—polarization, disinformation, and inequality—evident in events like the U.S. Capitol riot or Brexit. These weaken the system's appeal and stability. While history may not have “ended,” liberal democracy remains a dominant, yet contested, paradigm. Its triumph is neither inevitable nor complete, as cultural, economic, and political forces continue to shape ideological battles globally. These are some of the issues that Hunter Baker looks at in his new book Postliberal Protestants: Baptists Between Obergefell and Christian Nationalism. And, if you're not Baptist, don't be turned off by the sub-title. Baker argues – I think convincingly – that the Southern Baptist Convention, the largest protestant denomination in the country, is in some ways a proxy for all of evangelicalism. I think he's mostly right, and that's why I think his book should be read not just by Baptists, but by all Christian leaders who want to have a role in shaping important public conversations in the 2020s and beyond. Also, Hunter Baker's argument for religious liberty – a cause long championed by Southern Baptists – is one that I think bears particular attention in this era in which we've seen a resurgence of religious intolerance both in the United States and around the world. Hunter Baker has both a law degree and a Ph.D., and he's the provost and dean of faculty at North Greenville University, in South Carolina. He is the author of four books, and you may have seen his byline at WORLD Magazine, where he is a frequent contributor to WORLD Opinions. In a spirit of full disclosure, I should also say that Hunter is a friend, someone I turn to regularly for counsel and fellowship. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. Until next time, may God bless you.

Today's Headlines: President Trump was caught on a hot mic telling French President Emmanuel Macron that Vladimir Putin “wants to make a deal,” though the Kremlin brushed it off Reports say Putin even suggested Zelensky travel to Moscow — a nonstarter, given Russia's stance on Ukraine. Trump also ruled out sending U.S. troops to Ukraine as part of security guarantees. Meanwhile, the Trump administration revoked security clearances for 37 current and former national security officials, many tied to the 2016 Russia interference assessment. Trump also escalated his attacks on “woke” institutions, directing his lawyers to target the Smithsonian museums over their exhibits. In California, Republican lawmakers are suing to block Governor Gavin Newsom's redistricting legislation, while in Texas, State Rep. Nicole Collier is literally sleeping in the capitol to avoid signing a GOP loyalty paper that would otherwise allow her to leave without threat of arrest. Elsewhere, Oklahoma schools chief Ryan Walters announced that out-of-state teacher applicants must pass an “anti-radical” test written by PragerU and  immigration authorities rolled out a new policy weighing immigrants' “positive attributes” in citizenship applications — just as ICE moved to deport a Maine police officer accused of overstaying his visa. Finally, Minnesota joined states suing TikTok over addictive algorithms, and the FDA warned consumers to toss certain Walmart frozen shrimp after reports of possible radioactive contamination linked to an Indonesian supplier.
