Wall Street bemoeit zich met de toekomst van Bitcoin: BlackRock, Coinbase en Michael Saylor lanceren het Bitcoin Security Consortium om developers te sponsoren, met quantum computing als eerste focus — en dat roept bij bitcoiners herinneringen op aan de beruchte New York Agreement uit 2017. Verder eist de bearmarkt eindelijk zijn slachtoffers: faillissementen bij BitMEX, Poolin en Storj, en ontslagrondes van 30% bij Bybit en Gemini. Ook schuift de behandeling van de Clarity Act opnieuw door, terwijl de odds op invoering in 2026 dalen naar 25%.

It's Monday, July 20th, 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 Pakistani Christian 13-year-old girl still captive to Muslim man On July 7, the European Parliament condemned Pakistan for its violation of human rights, citing a 13-year-old Christian Pakistani girl who is still fighting for her freedom from the 30-year-old Muslim man who abducted her, reports International Christian Concern. Maria Shahbaz was kidnapped in July 2025 by Shehryar Ahmad, who forced her to convert to Islam and married her against her will. Alliance Defending Freedom came alongside her parents in their fight to regain custody of their child in Pakistan's Federal Constitutional Court in February. Pakistani law states that a minor cannot legally consent to religious conversion or marriage, but shockingly the court ruled in favor of Ahmad when he presented a forged marriage certificate. In Matthew 18:6, Jesus said, “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in Me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.” Shahbaz's parents are not giving up. They are still appealing their daughter's case in court, hoping that justice will swiftly come. According to Open Doors, Pakistan is the eighth worst country worldwide for the persecution of Christians. Send a polite, 3-sentence letter to Rizwan Sheikh, the Pakistan Ambassador to America, asking that he intervene. The address is 3517 International Court NW, Washington, DC 20008. Two U.S. soldiers killed in Iranian attack on military base Two American soldiers were killed on July 17th in an Iranian attack on a U.S. military base in Jordan, reports the Western Journal. In a post on X, U.S. Central Command added, “Four American service members were medically evacuated to Jordanian hospitals. They have since been discharged.” Plus, one soldier is missing. Iran's attacks came after the U.S. launched its seventh consecutive night of air strikes on Iran. Iran makes chilling death threats against President Trump Iranian state media has published a shocking video entitled “Where to kill Trump?”, claiming to know the U.S. leader's motorcade route and the vulnerabilities within his security, reports The Express. The highly concerning footage claimed to reveal “information on the whereabouts of the terrorist president of America” while promising that “access to Trump is possible in these places.” It also alleges to give details about the motorcade that protects the U.S. president, which typically consists of 40 to 50 vehicles. It comes after repeated death threats have been made by Iran following the U.S. assassination of former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. President Trump's primetime speech on election integrity Last Thursday night, President Donald Trump addressed election security in a nationwide primetime address from the White House, pointing to ways American political leftists and China have compromised our elections, reports The Epoch Times. TRUMP: “You can't have a great country without free and fair elections. All we want is honesty in our elections. Great damage has been done to our country. Our elections were left vulnerable to being rigged and stolen, and the trust of the American people was lost. This cannot be allowed to continue. “Every American -- whether you're a Republican, Democrat, Independent, or otherwise -- should be able to agree that we deserve the most secure, honest, and fair election system anywhere in the world.” President Trump explained that China started compromising our elections in 2020. TRUMP: “Over a period of years, starting during the 2020 election cycle, the People's Republic of China carried out what is believed to be the largest compromise of election data in history, resulting in China's illicit acquisition of 220 million U.S. voter files. That information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, political party preferences, and other sensitive data that would be needed to register to vote. “This data loss presents an unprecedented election security nightmare. The intelligence even shows that China assigned a data exploitation unit specifically to this new project.” And finally, President Trump vowed action to hold people accountable. TRUMP: “The documents we will release, starting tonight, have been gathered by the White House Government Transparency Task Force, a great group of people, supported by our top intelligence agency chiefs, who have all personally reviewed the findings we are presenting this evening and fully confirmed their authenticity. “You can see these documents for yourself at whitehouse.gov. That's whitehouse.gov. Go check it out. Our purpose in disclosing this information is not to weaken confidence in election, but to earn that confidence by confronting vulnerabilities and correcting them very, very quickly, and that's what we're doing.” Homeland Security Secretary vows to prosecute illegal voters In related news, during a Friday press briefing, Secretary of Homeland Security Markwayne Mullin promised to hunt down and prosecute illegal voters in the U.S., noting that 250,000 non-citizens are illegally registered to vote in just four states, reports The Christian Post. Speaking in the wake of President Donald Trump's 25-minute primetime address about election security on July 16th, Mullin outlined an aggressive plan to tighten voter roll integrity, harden election infrastructure, and hold election officials accountable for alleged failures. Senator Marsha Blackburn: No more birth tourism Republican Senator Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee has reintroduced legislation aimed at ending so-called “birth tourism” following the Supreme Court's recent 6-3 ruling in Trump v. Barbara. It held that children born in the United States to illegal aliens and foreign tourists remain entitled to birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment, reports Big League Politics. She said, “Congress must step up to the plate to protect the integrity of American citizenship.” The Ban Birth Tourism Act is co-sponsored by GOP Senators Ted Budd of North Carolina, John Cornyn of Texas, Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, Tim Sheehy of Montana, Jim Banks of Indiana, and Rick Scott of Florida. The legislation would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to explicitly prohibit foreign nationals from obtaining temporary visas for the purpose of giving birth in the United States. It would also classify birth tourism as a deportable offense, allowing immigration authorities to remove foreign nationals who enter the country for that purpose. Call your two senators anytime -- 24 hours a day 7 days a week -- speaking to a live operator to leave a voicemail at 202-224-3121 and ask them to support the Ban Birth Tourism Act. That's 202-224-3121. Samaritan's Purse deployed disaster relief unit for Texas flood victims On July 17th, churches in the Texas Hill Country opened their doors as flood displacement shelters, taking in families whose homes and recreational vehicles had been swept away by rapidly rising rivers that killed at least two people, reports The Christian Post. Recently more than 30 inches of rain fell over several days, causing the Leona River and Guadalupe River to overflow. Floodwaters surged through the streets, destroying homes, and stranding people and vehicles. The Christian relief group Samaritan's Purse said it was deploying a disaster relief unit to the Hill Country, with staff and volunteer teams set to work in Uvalde County. The group said it was basing operations out of Uvalde Methodist Church, with volunteers beginning on Sunday to help residents remove waterlogged belongings and clear mud from their homes. Consider making a donation to Samaritan's Purse to help the Texas victims of the flood through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. 1 John 3:17 asks, “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need, but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person?” Worldview listeners weigh in from New York, Texas and Arkansas Deb Staley in Unadilla Forks, New York wrote me and said, “The Worldview never disappoints. It's uplifting, informative, and to the point. The Bible verses are so very helpful. And I love the fact that there are limited news stories. If there were more, I'd begin to tune out. Thank you for what you do.” David O'Hanlon in Burleson, Texas wrote, “I have listened to your broadcast every weekday for about two years which I support monthly. You bring news – especially the persecution of the Church – which I do not hear anywhere else.” And Melissa in Bradford, Arkansas wrote, “I listen to your newscast on my lunch break. I like it because it's truthful news about real people. Plus, you talk about stuff others do not. Thank you.” 26 Worldview listeners gave $ 9,113 And finally, by Saturday night at 10:00pm Central, 26 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another year. Our thanks to Kenyon in Merritt Island, Florida who gave $25, Augustine in Auburn, California who gave $30, Sheryl in Westmoreland, Tennessee who gave $75, as well as Steve in Mission Viejo, California, David and Martha in Byram Township, New Jersey, Dean in Carol Stream, Illinois, Susan in Fairmont, West Virginia, Linda in Lutz, Florida, and an anonymous donor in Alpharetta, Georgia – all six of whom gave $100. We were touched by the generosity of Tami in Dry Ridge, Kentucky, Rose in Everson, Washington, Amy in Seminole, Texas, and Robin in Simsbury, Connecticut -- all of whom gave $200, as well as the McVeda Family in Great Falls, Montana who gave $205, and Calvin in Odessa, Minnesota who gave $250. We appreciated the sacrifice of Dennis and Kathryn in Palm Bay, Florida and Joan in West Palm Beach, Florida – both of whom gave $300 as well as David and Sonya in Austin, Texas who decided to continue giving $25/month for another 12 months for a gift of $300. And we're grateful to God for Ed in Flagler, Colorado, Mike and Sarah in California, Maryland, who listen to Redeemer Radio WSMD, and an anonymous donor in Estancia, New Mexico – each of whom gave $500 as well as Vivian in Castle Rock, Colorado who gave $600, Gena in Huntsville, Alabama who gave $728, Daniel in Ironton, Minnesota who gave $1,000, an anonymous donor in Pinckney, Michigan who pledged $100/month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200, and a second anonymous donor in Hopewell Junction, New York who pledged $100/month for 12 months for a gift of $1,200. Those 26 gifts add up to $9,113. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $38,953 (sound effect of people cheering) That means we need to raise $42,273.50 to hit our $81,226.50 goal by this Friday, July 24th!

With U.S. debt now exceeding 100% of GDP, Senator Cynthia Lummis argues the country can't afford to ignore Bitcoin. In this Bitcoin Magazine podcast conversation with host Spencer Nichols, she lays out why a strategic Bitcoin reserve could be America's "Louisiana Purchase moment" and how holding it long term might meaningfully reduce the national debt. She also breaks down the Clarity Act timeline and the legislation racing through Congress.

Vance sits down with St. Louis radio veteran Mark Reardon — 97.1 FM Talk — for a wide-ranging conversation that quickly reveals just how different two people's information worlds can be. Mark has been in talk radio since he was 15, has survived firings and format flips, and still believes in live local radio. But when Vance starts talking about the Bitcoin Clarity Act or Cynthia Lummis, Mark draws a complete blank — and neither of them finds that reassuring. The gap between boomer and younger media diets, they agree, is now so wide that the two groups are essentially living in different realities. From there the conversation gets into territory that makes Mark visibly uncomfortable in the best way: Vance's argument that young people aren't just disengaged from voting — they're losing faith in the entire system. Housing costs, inflation funneled into boomer-owned assets, Social Security nobody will touch, and now AI threatening whatever intellectual edge younger workers thought they had. Mark pushes back but doesn't fully disagree. He also opens up about his own AI intimidation — just getting started with help from a friend at ThrottleNet — and Vance walks him through the Cambrian explosion framing and Pope Leo's encyclical on building AI like Nehemiah's wall, not the Tower of Babel. The episode covers Iran, the Catholic Church abuse scandal, Vance's prediction of a Pentecostal revival, and whether lynch-mob justice is actually coming — before Mark rescues everyone with an extended, genuinely delightful tangent about Oreo, his litter-trained Dutch rabbit who has taken over his couch and his heart.Articulate.Ventures/IBCLegacyInterviews.com

Reporter Audrey Streb discusses joining the White House press pool for The Lion, aiming to ask energy-focused questions. Drawing on her work at the Daily Caller News Foundation, she argues corporate media fuels “climate doomsday” coverage by spotlighting supportive studies and ignoring contrary ones, and she outlines tactics like calling out bad data, highlighting underplayed leads, and framing stories for readers. She cites reporting on retracted climate research, sea-level findings, China's coal use and its comments on EPA rule rollbacks, and national-security risks from Chinese solar inverters. Her questioning of EPA Administrator Zeldin helped spur Sen. Cynthia Lummis' bill to block foreign adversaries from commenting on U.S. rulemaking. She also mentions Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund scrutiny, climate litigation “lawfare,” and trade-offs in wind/solar.00:00 Meet Audrey Streb00:38 Energy Reporter Origins01:46 Climate Myth Machine03:56 Calling Out Bad Data05:53 China and Energy Security09:04 Asking the Questions14:19 Swampy Climate Funds15:38 Tradeoffs of Wind Solar21:01 White House Press Pool23:35 Allies and Conferences24:43 Scientists and Media Attacks27:20 Who to Read Next29:26 New Investigations Ahead31:33 Climate Lawfare Explained36:15 Grid Risks from China Tech39:01 Will the Hysteria Return41:17 Gas Prices and Politics43:33 Closing Thoughts and Impacthttps://x.com/AudreyLStreb=========Slides, summaries, references, and transcripts of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summariesMy Linktree: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1

David Giralt is one of the many candidates running for the U.S. House of Representatives. He's an Army Ranger, used to work at the Pentagon and spent time in U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis' office. Though it took us a few days to find a time to visit, he joined me on Tuesday's live program. It's a great interview.
It's a high-stakes Friday Town Hall as Scott Hennen and Senator Kevin Cramer tackle a world in transition. The episode bridges the gap between ancient theological conflicts in the Middle East and the futuristic frontiers of blockchain technology. Senator Cramer provides an insider's update on the "excursion" into Iran, the strategic bottleneck at the Strait of Hormuz, and why the U.S. no longer relies on Middle Eastern oil. Later, the "Crypto Queen" herself, Senator Cynthia Lummis, joins the studio to break down the Clarity Act. She demystifies digital assets for the "fifth grader" in all of us, explaining why Bitcoin is a commodity, how "tokenizing" your home title could prevent fraud, and why she is fighting to protect your digital wallet from government surveillance. From the brutal realities of the Iranian regime to the "green scam" of ESG, this episode is a masterclass in modern defense and digital liberty. Standout Moments [2492] The Dog Days of DC: Scott introduces his sheepadoodle office dog, Finny, leading to a lighthearted moment with Senator Cramer about his own "needy" dog, Barnabas. [2536] The 90/10 Rule in Iran: Senator Cramer explains that while 90% of Iran's military capability was wiped out in days, the final 10%—and their ballistic missile sophistication—remains a dangerous challenge. [2579] European TDS: Cramer discusses why some U.S. allies are reluctant to help in the Strait of Hormuz, citing "Trump Derangement Syndrome" as a barrier to global security cooperation. [2696] Crypto 101: Senator Cynthia Lummis defines the digital economy, explaining the difference between "stablecoins" (digital debit cards) and assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. [2768] Lessons from the Truckers: Senator Lummis cites the Canadian trucker crisis as a warning of why Americans need digital assets to protect themselves from "de-banking" and government surveillance.

Winter's thawing, DC is heating up, and suddenly the “boring” plumbing of global finance looks like the main event. In this episode, Toner and BTC Ankarino connect the dots between Kraken's access to the Fed, the Clarity Act drumbeat, stablecoin legislation, and a wartime money machine that may no longer need to ask Congress for permission—or your wallet for forgiveness.From Capitol Hill blockchain panels and Cynthia Lummis rhetoric, to Paul Atkins talking T-zero settlement like it's the second coming of banking, this one goes deep on the new rails being laid beneath the American economy. The guys unpack why stablecoins may be less about “innovation” and more about teaching the public to accept a new transaction layer, why the World Bank's shiny “Funds Chain” sounds a lot like Economic Hitmen 3.0 with better branding, and how “traceability” can still be just another flavor of obfuscation.Also on the tab: prediction markets sniffing out military action before the headlines do, Polymarket and Kalshi as oracle machines for the well-connected, small business loans becoming tokenized instruments, and the increasingly blurry line between Bitcoin's stateless promise and every other chain's very human agenda. The future may still show you a dollar sign—but behind the curtain, the ballerina is already dancing on blockchain.A little war, a little Fedwire, a little pirate treasure. Just another week pouring ourselves into the future.

The U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve was once a near-certainty—backed by powerful voices like Bo Hines and Senator Cynthia Lummis. But in a shocking turn, both key advocates are now gone. What happened? Why did the odds plummet from 77% to less than 1%? And is this the death of the Bitcoin reserve movement—or the beginning of something even bigger?SPONSORS✅ Lednhttps://www.nmj1gs2i.com/9W598/9B9DM/?source_id=podcastSimply Bitcoin clients get 0.25% off their first loanNeed liquidity without selling your Bitcoin?

Markets are sending mixed signals heading into 2026 and crypto is caught right in the middle. In today's livestream we break down the “major crisis ahead” narrative: why the Fed could be risking recession without more rate cuts, what Sen. Cynthia Lummis' retirement means for crypto's biggest allies in Washington, how Arizona is advancing a bill that could exempt Bitcoin and crypto from property taxes, and why Charles Hoskinson says the TRUMP token controversy helped fuel a “Bitcoin-only” shift while weakening bipartisan momentum for broader market-structure legislation. Nothing here is financial advice do your own research.
At the recent Turning Point conference, Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson finally started to sound the alarm bells about Republicans' chances in next year's midterms. Johnson warned that Democrats could take over (which is almost guaranteed at this point), and that if they do, they'll go out and impeach Donald Trump again. He's trying to scare Republicans into submission, but doing so by arguing that the least popular president in modern history is in danger isn't exactly going to get people energized. Kevin Hassett, the chief economic adviser to Donald Trump, panicked when questioned by CBS's Margaret Brennan about when Americans can expect to start receiving their $2,000 tariff rebate checks that Trump has repeatedly promised. Hassett tried to say that Congress has to do that because it is a budget issue, and then immediately pivoted away from the topic in order to distract the public from that rather shocking admission that proves that Trump is a total liar. Elise Stefanik is quitting. Cynthia Lummis is retiring. Marjorie Taylor Greene and several other House members have either already announced their retirements or their resignations. The Great Republican Resignation movement has officially begun, as many analysts had predicted. But to see such high profile members like Stefanik and Greene bail out was likely not on anyone's 2025 Bingo cards. Old man Trump tried his hand at another rally in a sleepy town last Friday, and things somehow went even worse than his previous rally in Pennsylvania the week before. Trump couldn't stay on topic for more than a few minutes, and went on so many wild tangents that no one could keep track of what he was even supposed to be talking about. At one point, he went into disturbing detail about how he "thinks" his wife cleans her underwear and organizes her underwear drawer. Donald Trump reportedly talked with infamous Epstein lawyer Alan Dershowitz about the possibility of serving a third term in office, something that Dershowitz has now written a book about, laying out the legal possibilities that could make it happen. Trump is clearly not just "joking" about a third term, as Susie Wiles said in her recent Vanity Fair issue. But just because he's not joking doesn't mean we should take it seriously.A former manager at Donald Trump's Bedminster golf resort in New Jersey has filed a lawsuit against the club for wrongful termination, but the lawsuit has a lot more information than just being fired for things that weren't her fault. The manager details harassment, misogyny, discrimination, and the most disgusting kitchen details you could imagine. She claims in the suit that even Donald Trump himself was disgusted by the state of the club, which included "maggots", "mold", and a terrible "fly infestation."

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin have returned, and already it feels like there's more sunshine today. There! The DOJ released less than a percent of the Epstein files. Happy now? Apparently, dumping 500 pages with black lines over previously accessible documents and removing photos that even they had released previously fails to meet the spirit of the Epstein Files Transparency Act… Ok, the law of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, along with several other laws. It does fulfill the spirit of screwing as many as possible while keeping your buddies' backs, however. You couldn't catch the latest 60 Minutes episode because Bari Weiss caught and killed it first. CBS says the story wasn't ready, but it did take a while for Bari Weiss to get her story together as well. Trump is removing dozens of career diplomats from overseas posts, because what would they know? Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry will be special envoy to Greenland, because Jeff is a noted expert on agreeing with Trump. Landry will remain Governor as Louisiana's constitution does not explicitly prohibit "side hustles". Nobody told ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee to not to talk with Jonathan Pollard, who was convicted of selling American secrets for Israeli gold, who now hates Donald K. Trump for selling America for Saudi gold. The getting is good for Cynthia Lummis and Elise Stefanik, so they're gone, while Mike Johnson might not be aware that he's already been quiet fired. The Federal Reserve pre-fired 11 of its 12 regional bank presidents before Trump could. How does Lindsey Halligan keep not doing it?

Senator Cynthia Lummis has announced she isn't going to seek re-election. That opens up a lot more possibilities for the 2026 election. With another congressional seat potentially up for grabs, Harriet, Gray, Degenfelder, Biteman, Gordon and others have some decisions to make. One of the things we haven't really talked about is what the 2026 ballot might look like. Most of it hinges on what Rep Hageman decides to do. Secretary Gray and others have said they won't run for the same seat as our Representative. But that's only one seat--there's plenty more to run for.

In Europe, the situation gets wild: EU President Ursula Von Der Leyen claims the EU “protects freedom of speech”… while a protester is arrested right in front of her. Elon Musk is personally fined under the Digital Services Act, X terminates the EU's ad account, and Musk vows retaliation. The censorship spiral intensifies. We also cover: • JD Vance's hilarious Oval Office story • Tom Emmer unleashing on Tim Walz • Dearborn controversy and national reaction • Sadiq Khan's Christmas Carol cringe moment • Europe's forced migration pact and the political fallout • John Rich and others weigh in on Europe's direction • The Hamas founder's son speaking in EU Parliament • UK cultural tension rising • EU meltdown across multiple fronts This is one of the most explosive intersections of crypto, politics, censorship, and global geopolitics we've seen all year.

1. FBI Spied on Republicans: The FBI performed a “toll analysis” (a term for examining phone call records and metadata) on eight Republican senators and one congressman. This was supposedly part of a secretive investigation codenamed “Arctic Frost”. The surveillance allegedly occurred after Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago raid and during Jack Smith’s investigation into Trump and the January 6th events. The senators targeted include: Lindsey Graham, Bill Haggerty, Josh Hawley, Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tuberville, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Lummis, and Marsha Blackburn — with Representative Mike Kelly also mentioned. An introductory narrator asserting the FBI’s wrongdoing. Quoted remarks from Senators Ron Johnson, Chuck Grassley, Bill Haggerty, and others, condemning the alleged surveillance. Repeated claims that this represents “weaponization of government” and “political persecution.” Statements linking this case to prior alleged abuses under the Obama administration and investigations into Trump.

U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis joins the program to reflect on the life of Charlie Kirk, the September 11th attack and to share what's going on in the United States Senate.
At the Wyoming Blockchain Summit, Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller delivered one of the most striking pro-crypto speeches ever from a senior central banker. Waller argued that decentralized finance is simply the next iteration of financial technology, praised stablecoins as now-mature infrastructure, and said the Fed itself must modernize its payment rails to be compatible with crypto. He even joked about trading meme coins on a DEX as if it were the most normal thing in the world. Later, Senator Cynthia Lummis outlined her timeline for market structure legislation, with momentum building around the Clarity Act. Meanwhile, Wall Street analysts from Goldman Sachs and UBS are increasingly focused on the multi-trillion-dollar stablecoin opportunity. Today's Breakdown unpacks the shifting discourse, the Fed's evolving stance, and why 2024 may be the decisive year for U.S. crypto regulation.

It's Monday, June 30th, 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 Adam McManus South Korea detains 6 Americans sending Bibles into North Korea South Korean authorities detained six Americans today after they attempted to send 1,600 plastic bottles containing miniature Bibles into North Korea by sea, reports International Christian Concern. In Isaiah 55:11, God says, “My Word that goes out from My mouth: It will not return to Me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” According to the Gwanghwa Island police, the Americans are being investigated because they allegedly violated the law on disaster management. The Americans reportedly threw the bottles, which also included USB sticks, money, and rice, into the sea, hoping North Koreans would eventually find them washed up on their shore. The police did not disclose the contents of the USB sticks. Christian missionaries and human rights groups have attempted to send plastic bottles by sea and balloons by air into North Korea. Sadly, South Korean President Lee Jae Myung, who was just elected June 4, 2025, has pledged to halt such campaigns, arguing that such items could provoke North Korea. According to Open Doors, North Korea is the most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill clears procedural vote The U.S. Senate advanced the latest version of President Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill” in a procedural vote on June 28, clearing the way for floor debate on the substance of the sweeping megabill, reports The Epoch Times. This moves Republicans one step closer to delivering on key parts of President Donald Trump's second-term agenda. The bill advanced in a vote of 51 to 49, with enough Republican holdouts joining party leaders to avoid the need for Vice President J.D. Vance's tie-breaking vote and to push the measure forward despite lingering concerns about some of its provisions. Republican Senators Susan Collins of Maine and Josh Hawley of Missouri, two pivotal holdouts, said on June 28 that they would vote to advance the megabill, pointing to revisions unveiled by party leaders on June 27 that addressed some of their earlier objections. Hawley, who had previously objected to proposed Medicaid cuts, told reporters on June 28 that he would back not only the motion to proceed, but also final passage of the bill. He credited his decision to new language in the updated bill that delays implementation of changes to the federal cap on Medicaid provider taxes—a provision he said would ultimately bring more federal funding to Missouri's Medicaid program over the next four years. In an attempt to delay passage of the bill, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York and his fellow Democrats required that the clerks read the entire 940-page bill out loud, which took 15 hours 55 minutes through yesterday afternoon, reports CBS. The chamber began up to 20 hours of debate on Sunday afternoon which you can watch through a special link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Senate Majority Leader John Thune expects a final vote on the package sometime today. Two GOP defections on Trump's Big Beautiful Bill There were two Republicans who voted against advancing Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, reports The Hill.com. Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, who opposes a provision to raise the debt limit by $5 trillion, and Senator Thom Tillis of North Carolina, who says the legislation would cost his state $38.9 billion in federal Medicaid funding. Three other Republicans, who had wavered, changed their minds. Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin changed his “no” vote to “aye,” and holdout Senators Mike Lee of Utah, Rick Scott of Florida, and Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming also voted yes to advance the bill. The bill had suffered several significant setbacks in the days and hours before coming to the floor, at times appearing to be on shaky ground. Trump blasted Tillis on Truth Social, vowing to interview candidates to run against him in the upcoming senatorial primary. He said, “Looks like Senator Thom Tillis, as usual, wants to tell the Nation that he's giving them a 68% Tax Increase, as opposed to the Biggest Tax Cut in American History! “America wants Reduced Taxes, including NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, AND NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY, Interest Deductions on Cars, Border Security, a Strong Military, and a Bill which is GREAT for our Farmers, Manufacturers and Employment, in general. Thom Tillis is making a BIG MISTAKE for America, and the Wonderful People of North Carolina!” Just one day after drawing President Trump's ire for opposing the party's sweeping domestic policy package, Senator Tillis surprisingly announced that he will not seek a third 6-year term in 2026, reports The Guardian. Trump's bill does defund Planned Parenthood President Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill still includes language to stop forced taxpayer funding of Planned Parenthood and Big Abortion for one year, reports LifeNews.com. The good news is that Planned Parenthood defunding is retained in the final version of the bill, but the bad news is that the 10 year funding ban has been scaled back to just one year. According to Planned Parenthood's latest annual fiscal report, the organization killed more than 400,000 babies through abortion in 2023 and 2024 and received nearly $800 million from taxpayers. Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America President Marjorie Dannenfelser said, “The One Big Beautiful Bill Act that stops forced taxpayer funding of the abortion industry has been retained in the Senate bill, as we were confident it would, though for one year. This is a huge win.” Jeremiah 1:5 says, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart.” Call your two U.S. Senators ASAP on Monday at 202-224-3121 to urge them to retain the defunding of Planned Parenthood in the bill. That's 202-224-3121. Supreme Court curbs injunctions that blocked Trump's birthright citizenship plan Last Friday, the Supreme Court handed the Trump administration a major win by allowing it, for now, to take steps to implement its proposal to end automatic birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants, reports NBC News. TRUMP: “That was meant for the babies of slaves. It wasn't meant for people trying to scam the system.” In a 6-3 vote, the court granted the request by the Trump administration to narrow the scope of nationwide injunctions imposed by judges so that they only apply to the states, groups and individuals that sued. TRUMP: “This was a big decision, an amazing decision!” The White House said, “Since the moment President Trump took office, low-level activist judges have been exploiting their positions to kneecap the agenda on which he was overwhelmingly elected. Of the 40 nationwide injunctions filed against President Trump's executive actions in his second term, 35 of them came from just five far-left jurisdictions: California, Maryland, Massachusetts, Washington, and the District of Columbia. “Now, the Trump administration can promptly proceed with critical action to save the country — like ending birthright citizenship, ceasing sanctuary city funding, suspending refugee resettlement, freezing unnecessary funding, and stopping taxpayers from funding transgender surgeries.” Appearing on Fox News Channel, Jonathan Turley, a George Washington University Law School Professor, explained that this is a major victory for Trump. TURLEY: “This is a huge win for him. It does negate what has been a stumbling block. These judges have been throwing sand in the works in many of these policies, from immigration to birthright citizenship to [Department of Government Efficiency] cuts -- that will presumably now be tamped down. If these judges try to circumvent that, I think they'll find an even more expedited path to a Supreme Court that's going to continue to reverse some of these, lift some of these injunctions.” President Trump agreed wholeheartedly. TRUMP: “We've seen a handful of radical left judges effectively try to overrule the rightful powers of the president, to stop the American people from getting the policies that they voted for in record numbers.” Professor Turley was shocked by the forcefulness of Amy Coney Barrett's 96-page majority opinion, which took on leftist Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, the author of the 20-page dissent. Barrett wrote, “We will not dwell on Justice Jackson's argument, which is at odds with more than two centuries' worth of precedent, not to mention the Constitution itself. … Justice Jackson decries an imperial Executive while embracing an imperial Judiciary.” TURLEY: “The opinion was really radioactive in this takedown of Justice Jackson. I've been covering the Supreme Court for decades. It's rare to see that type of exchange. The important thing to remember is that Justice Barrett delivered what was essentially a pile driver. “But she didn't do it alone. I mean, her colleagues signed on to this. And I think it's very clear that the majority is getting tired of the histrionics and the hysteria that seems to be growing a bit on the left side of the court.” Turley cited two examples of the hyperbolic rhetoric of the three leftist judges on the Supreme Court. TURLEY: “It's the hyperbole that's coming out of the dissent that is so notable. Justice [Sonia] Sotomayor, in that Maryland case, said that giving parents the ability to opt out of a few [pro-homosexual/transgender] lessons was going to, ‘create chaos and probably end public education.' Justice [Ketanji Brown] Jackson saying this could very well essentially be the ‘death of democracy.' It's the type of hyperbole that most justices have avoided.” Even CNN's Michael Smerconish said that Trump is meeting and surpassing expectations. SMERCONISH: “By any objective measure, President Trump has his opponents on the run.” 30 Worldview listeners gave $8,873 to fund our annual budget And finally, toward our $123,500 goal by today, June 30, to fully fund The Worldview's annual budget for our 6-member team, 30 listeners stepped up to the plate.

"In his new role, Bo will work with David to foster innovation and growth in the digital assets space, while ensuring industry leaders have the resources they need to succeed," Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform Truth Social, referring to tech investor David Sacks, the recently appointed White House artificial intelligence and crypto czar. U.S. senator Cynthia Lummis has introduced a bitcoin reserve bill to Congress, suggesting the U.S. Treasury purchases 200,000 bitcoin every year until the reserve reaches one million bitcoin. Among other eye-catching numbers, Saylor's pitch envisions expanding "global digital capital markets from $2 trillion to $280 trillion, with U.S. investors capturing the majority of this wealth," and driving "growth in digital assets (beyond bitcoin) from $1 trillion to $590 trillion, with the United States dominating this industry." As the bitcoin and crypto market booms, it will create "massive demand for U.S. Treasuries," according to Saylor, referring to stablecoin issuer Tether's huge U.S. Treasuries stockpile that's helped it record profits of $10 billion in 2024.
