In the wake of state-level abortion restrictions, a critical federal battleground has emerged over the distribution of chemical abortion drugs like mifepristone. While individual states have passed legislation to protect the unborn and regulate procedure standards, federal policies governing telehealth prescribing and mail-order delivery allow these drugs to bypass state lines entirely. Through out-of-state "shield laws" and unmonitored postal delivery, pregnant women can obtain high-risk medications without undergoing in-person medical evaluations, ultrasounds, or screening for dangerous complications such as ectopic pregnancies. Key legal battles—such as Louisiana v. FDA—are now testing whether state governments have the legal authority to enforce their own life-affirming laws against federal regulatory policies and out-of-state entities. With medication now accounting for the majority of abortions nationwide, the future of state-level protections depends heavily on how courts and federal regulators handle the mail-order loophole. Anne Schlafly, Chairman of Eagle Forum, is scheduled to join me to discuss the issue.Following the events of January 6, 2021, the U.S. Department of Justice launched the largest prosecution effort in American history. However, fundamental questions surrounding prosecutorial overreach, statutory misuse, and judicial accountability continue to spark intense national debate. Central to this discussion is the application of 18 U.S.C. § 1512(c)(2)—an obstruction statute originally intended for corporate financial evidence tampering—which prosecutors weaponized to secure massive felony exposure against non-violent defendants before being heavily restricted by the U.S. Supreme Court. Scheduled to join me, John Strand, author of Patriot Plea: The J6 Journey of a Political Prisoner in the Divided States of America, offers a firsthand perspective on the system. After serving 366 days in federal prison and enduring extended solitary confinement, Strand outlines how aggressive sentencing pressure, solitary isolation, and systemic double standards within the District of Columbia court system were used to compel plea agreements. While executive pardons have provided relief to affected individuals, key structural questions remain unanswered regarding how these cases were handled, whether court officers can be held accountable for constitutional violations, and what reforms the Justice Department must enact to prevent future political prosecutions.Five years after the fall of Kabul, the geopolitical and human aftershocks of America's withdrawal from Afghanistan continue to reverberate. Released by Palladium Pictures in collaboration with WSJ Opinion Docs, the documentary The Path to Zero takes viewers inside the final weeks of America's longest war. The film reconstructs the strategic decisions that led from the order for a total troop drawdown down "to zero" to the rapid collapse of the Afghan government, the withdrawal from Bagram Airfield, and the desperate, chaotic airlift at Hamid Karzai International Airport.Through candid, eyewitness testimony from military commanders, on-the-ground diplomats, intelligence personnel, Afghan allies, and Marines stationed at the airport perimeter, the film exposes the raw realities of the evacuation. It examines critical moments like the deadly Abbey Gate suicide bombing, the mass evacuation of over 124,000 individuals, and the plight of thousands of loyal Afghan partners who were left behind due to shifting bureaucracy. Beyond policy failures, The Path to Zero confronts the deep "moral injury" borne by service members forced to navigate impossible choices, while questioning why senior leadership has largely avoided accountability for the tragic outcome. Michael Pack, the President and CEO of Palladium Pictures LLC, and producer and director of The Path to Zero, is scheduled to join me to talk about it.

The issue this week on Conservative Crossroads: Has the Trump administration done enough to advance a pro-life agenda? Kris Ullman, the President of Eagle Forum, says, “No.” Eric Teetsel, CEO and publisher of Chronicles Magazine, says, “Yes.” The pro-life agenda and the Trump administration's advocacy coming up…

We are far from the days when Phyllis Schlafly led the Eagle Forum pushing back on the feminist leaders of the Left in the 1970’s.  However, she gave voice to issues like the pro-life movement, opposition to gay rights, and others that animated the first wave of pushback.  Today, with many conservative Christian women speaking out loudly and proclaiming their concern about traditional values slipping away in America, the success of their movement in self-evident by looking at who has the levers of power in Washington, D.C. today.  Our guest, Katie Gaddini, author of “Esther’s Army: The Christian Women Who Power the American Right”, formerly an adherent to the cause, steps back to provide an honest and nuanced look at the various types of women who now make up a real power center for the Right in America.  You will hear about the Influencers, the Black conservatives, the Make America Healthy Again stalwarts and many others on today’s podcast.  Caricatures and stereotypes will be broken.

The "Hemp Loophole" was a legal gap created by the 2018 Farm Bill that allowed hemp-derived intoxicating products like delta-8 THC to be sold nationwide, largely unregulated, but it is set to close under federal law in November 2026. The loophole emerged from the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (2018 Farm Bill), which legalized hemp by defining it as Cannabis sativa L. containing no more than 0.3% delta-9 THC by dry weight. This definition explicitly referenced only delta-9 THC, leaving other psychoactive cannabinoids, such as delta-8 THC, delta-10 THC, and THCA, technically legal if derived from hemp and below the delta-9 threshold. Manufacturers exploited this gap to produce intoxicating products from hemp-derived CBD, creating a multi-billion-dollar market for gummies, beverages, vapes, and other edibles. The loophole allowed hemp-derived THC products to operate largely outside state cannabis regulations, often without age restrictions, lab testing, or safety oversight. This unregulated market grew rapidly, with estimates suggesting a $28 billion industry employing over 300,000 people. Licensed cannabis operators argued that these products undermined regulated markets by offering cheaper alternatives and bypassing compliance costs. Courts generally upheld the legality of hemp-derived intoxicants federally, while states retained the authority to impose stricter bans. In response to public health concerns and regulatory ambiguity, Congress passed the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act of 2026 (H.R. 5371), signed into law on November 12, 2025. Section 781 of the Act redefined hemp to include a total THC limit (including all isomers and THCA) of 0.3% by dry weight and imposed a 0.4 mg THC per container cap for finished products. The law also excluded synthetic or lab-converted cannabinoids, effectively banning most intoxicating hemp products, including delta-8 and THCA flower. Enforcement was set to begin on November 12, 2026, which gave the industry a one-year window to adapt and, of course, to try to push back. The closure of the loophole has sparked lobbying efforts to preserve some hemp-derived products under regulated frameworks, including proposals for age verification, lab testing, and excise taxes. Advocates argue that while the law protects public health, it also threatens jobs, state tax revenue, and the viability of hemp-based businesses, particularly in states without legal cannabis markets. The U.S. House has voted to move forward to close the loophole without delay, after a bit of a fight. Now it moves to the Senate, where another fight appears to be brewing. Kristen Ullman, Eagle Forum President, is scheduled to join me to discuss the issue and why the Eagle Forum is in this fight for public safety.Eagle Forum: https://eagleforum.org/Kristen Ullman: https://eagleforum.org/about/kris-ullman.htmlTapper on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/0AArwj5iTabIXYsSKIxNakBecome a supporter of Tapp into the Truth: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/supportAimee's Audios Subliminal Acoustic Fingerprinting: https://www.aimeesaudios.com/If recent events have proven anything, you need to be as prepared as possible for when things go sideways.

THUNE“Passing the SAVE America Act is long overdue,” stated Kris Ullman, President of Eagle Forum. "Americans want to be able to trust our election system and know that requiring proof of citizenship and voter ID helps to rebuild that trust. We urge Senate Republicans to use all the resources available to overcome obstructionists and enact this important bill.” Eagle Forum was founded by Phyllis Schlafly, a dynamic and charismatic leader who inspired countless women and men to participate in the process of self-government and public policy-making so that America will continue to be a land of individual liberty, with respect for the nuclear family, public and private virtue, and private enterprise. For nearly fifty years, Eagle Forum’s network of state organizations has led the charge to mobilize the grassroots to defend the founding principles of the United States.

John Rush and Jerzee Joe, an experienced pilot, explain why this flight represented a near worst-case scenario—nighttime conditions, instrument weather, mountain terrain, and a notoriously unforgiving airport. What turns a flight into a clear “no-go,” and how does pressure push even experienced pilots toward dangerous decisions? The conversation expands into aviation judgment, “get-there-itis,” and why impatience can be deadly in the air or on the road. John then pivots to Colorado realities, including high winds, power shutoffs, and why being prepared for 24 hours without electricity is simple common sense. The hour closes with a thoughtful debate on Broomfield's proposed RV parking ordinance.

Greg sits down at the Alabama statehouse with Becky Gerritson, Executive Director of Eagle Forum of Alabama, to discuss legislation up for vote.

If you have studied what it means to have a Christian worldview or – for that matter – you have just studied the Bible, you know that it all begins with the creation story. “In the beginning, God created.” And if we are made in God's image, that means we are creative, too, and a part of our maturity in Christ is to more fully live into that mandate to be creators. And I don't just mean what some call “creative” professions, such as music, literature, and other arts. I mean woodworkers, homemakers, entrepreneurs, engineers, and plumbers. We are hearing more talk about creativity in recent years. Sometimes it takes the form of organizations committed to Christians and the arts. The Rabbit Room, co-founded by Andrew Peterson is an example. The International Arts Movement, founded by Makoto Fujimura is another. Andy Crouch's work with Praxis also comes to mind. But I have never heard anyone approach this topic in quite the way my guest today, Jim Edwards, has. His book “To Invent is Divine” examines human creativity as it relates to property rights – all within the framework of a Judeo-Christian principles of stewardship and ownership. He looks at America's patent system and how laws protecting intellectual property have encouraged creativity. He is also concerned, however, that those laws are eroding and the principles of intellectual property protection are weakening in an era of artificial intelligence. Jim Edwards has a Ph.D. from the University of Tennessee. He has had a long career in public policy and intellectual property consulting. He was a Lincoln Fellow at the Claremont Institute, and in 2017 was honored with the Eagle Award from the Eagle Forum's Education and Legal Defense Fund. I had this conversation with Jim via zoom. The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. Until next time, may God bless you.

HOUR 1 Hour 1 – https://RushToReason.com pulls no punches as John Rush dives headfirst into culture, freedom, and accountability—starting with a Super Bowl weekend that exposed just how divided the country has become. Why did a halftime show spark outrage, canceled orders, and online pile-ons against small businesses? And what does that say about tolerance, choice, and who really believes in freedom? John is joined by Mike Jansen of Plumberoos (https://plumberoos.com/), who breaks from the corporate, commission-driven model to explain what “old-school service” actually looks like in today's world.

Is regulation protecting people—or punishing common sense? And why are consumers shocked by prices in places where choice is limited? This hour challenges listeners to rethink outrage culture, media narratives, and where freedom quietly slips away when no one's paying attention.

In To Invent Is Divine: Creativity and Ownership, Jim makes the case that creativity and ownership are inseparable—and that weakening intellectual property rights threatens the flourishing that invention enables. He draws connections between faith, history, and policy to explore why protecting intellectual property is about more than law or economics.Highlights from our conversation:* From Genesis to Jefferson: How creation implies ownership, and why even some Founders wrestled with protecting that principle in law.* Cycles of Patent Strength and Weakness: Why America's “golden age” of inventors gave way to Progressive Era restraints—and how history may be repeating itself.* Policy at the Crossroads: Jim breaks down three bipartisan bills—PARA, PREVAIL, and RESTORE—and what it will take to get them passed.* Leadership at the USPTO: Why Acting Director Coke Morgan Stewart has already made an impact, and Jim perspective on the incoming Director John Squires and the path that he should follow.* Bipartisanship Matters: From his work with Eagle Forum, Jim explains why protecting patents requires coalition-building across party lines.Why it mattersCreativity without ownership can lead to secrecy, stagnation, and scarcity. When the two are combined, society benefits from innovation and progress. Jim's perspective offers both philosophical and practical insight into the patent debates shaping America's innovation future.

Welcome to CURE America, hosted by Donald T. Eason, President of CURE—the Center for Urban Renewal and Education. Joining the discussion are Marty Dannenfelser, Vice President for Government Relations at CURE; Kris A. Ullman, President of Eagle Forum; and Jonathan Alexandre, Senior Counsel at Liberty Counsel Action. The panel unpacks the “One Big Beautiful Bill” signed by President Trump on July 4, 2025, analyzing its content and implications. The episode includes a speech by Mike Johnson, Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, a Louisiana Republican known for advocating conservative policies, faith, family, and American exceptionalism since 2023. The bill is presented as a landmark of the America First agenda and fulfillment of 2024 election promises by voters who rejected open borders, inflationary spending, and political division. Johnson highlights the bill's unifying effects across Black, Hispanic, Jewish, union, and suburban communities by promoting common-sense reforms. It permanently extends the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, averting 2026 tax hikes and offering families an average annual savings of $10,000. Major components include raising the Child Tax Credit to $2,200 (indexed to inflation), increasing the adoption credit to $5,000, exempting tips and overtime from taxation, and raising the estate tax exemption to $15–30 million. The bill encourages investment through full expensing of equipment and research, targeting a 1.2% boost in GDP. Welfare reforms implement work requirements (20–80 hours per month) for able-bodied adults on Medicaid or SNAP, while focusing assistance on vulnerable populations, excluding illegal immigrants, and cutting $1.5 trillion in government waste. Planned Parenthood is defunded for one year, with resources redirected to community health centers. Education policy includes permanent Opportunity Zones and a $1,700 scholarship credit to help students leave failing public schools. Border security receives $170.7 billion in funding: $51.6 billion for completing the wall, 116,000 detention beds, 13,000 officers and agents, and reimbursements to Texas. The bill emphasizes law enforcement, reducing illegal crossings, and restoring American global leadership through increased NATO spending, ceasefire initiatives, and trade deals. Though adding $3 trillion to the national deficit in the short term, the bill is framed as an investment in national strength, economic stability, and opportunity. Built on principles of liberty and self-governance, the bill seeks to deliver measurable results.

Welcome to CURE AMERICA - THIS WEEK, hosted by Donald T. Eason, Pastor and President of CURE (Center for Urban Renewal and Education). The episode delves into Eason's Israel trip, where President Isaac Herzog declared, “This is our land, blessed by God,” emphasizing Israel's divine claim and the need for accessibility to all. The panel—Kristen A. Ullman, JD (President of Eagle Forum), Jonathan Alexandre (Vice President of Governmental Affairs, Liberty Counsel), and Marty Dannenfelser (Vice President of Government Relations and Coalitions, CURE)—explores President Trump's trade negotiations with over 70 countries, efforts to lower interest rates, and a 2025 budget resolution funding national security, border security, and tax cuts. Discussions cover misinformation surrounding federal spending cuts, the benefits of reduced illegal immigration, and block grants to states for fiscal control, clarifying that “cuts” mean slowing spending growth.   In a one-on-one interview, Dr. OJ Oleka, CEO of the State Financial Officers Foundation, shares his family's journey from Nigerian immigrants arriving in 1980 to achieving the American Dream through faith, education, and hard work. The conversation highlights financial literacy, school choice, and tithing as tools to combat poverty, with Oleka noting the biblical call in Malachi to “test” God through tithing for abundant blessings. He directs viewers to sfof.com for resources on state financial officers' literacy initiatives. The episode concludes with a panel discussion on a Supreme Court case challenging Maryland's LGBTQ curriculum for elementary students, which denies parental opt-outs. Topics include the ideological nature of materials like Pride Puppy, the elitist dismissal of parental authority, the curriculum's impact on young children, and the diverse plaintiffs (Christian, Muslim, Ethiopian Orthodox) opposing it. The panel advocates for school choice and parental opt-out rights, urging viewers to contact Congress in this faith-driven call to action.

Jonathan Alexandre, Senior Counsel at Liberty Counsel Action, takes the helm of CURE America with steely resolve, stepping in for Donald T. Eason, who's in Israel meeting with high-level officials and influential people. Joined by special guest Paul Teller, Executive Vice President of Advancing American Freedom, alongside Kris Ullman, President of Eagle Forum, and Marty Dannenfelser, Vice President for Government Relations at CURE, Alexandre fuels a blazing showdown of ideas. Ullman drops a Trump-fueled bombshell on defining sex amid cultural chaos, while Dannenfelser tears into California's $19 billion Medicaid scam—a scandal screaming for justice. Teller roars against Congress's spineless spending cuts, as Ullman brands Planned Parenthood's $699 million abortion empire “colonialism in a caring mask” on the world stage. Dannenfelser battles judicial overreach with fearless reforms, forging a call to arms as sharp as it is unapologetic. Cure America delivers—bold, brilliant, and blazing with purpose.

On March 26 the Texas House Committee on State Affairs heard public testimony on HJR 98, a clean Article V application for proposing fiscal restraints, jurisdictional constraints, and term limits on the federal government and its officials. Texas was state #11 to pass COS Action's resolution, but that legislation had an expiration date. HJR 98 would ensure Texas remains at the forefront of the COS movement. After an opening statement by State Representative Cody Vasut, several other locals spoke, including Texas resident Mark Meckler and a representative from the Texas Public Policy Foundation. Opponents also showed up to testify, including reps from the Soros-connected Common Cause and Eagle Forum. After a closing statement from Rep. Vasut, Regional Director Jonathan Viaud reacts to the hearing with Andrew Lusch. They discuss the Texas team's strategy for the hearing and what happens next in the process.
