Summary: In Hour 3 Segment 3, Congressman Eric Burleson joins the show to discuss the controversial insider trading allegations against Nancy Pelosi. Burleson emphasizes the need for transparency and investigation but pushes back against broad-brush accusations targeting all members of Congress, noting Pelosi's unique access as part of the "gang of eight." He explains why many members avoid stock trading due to disclosure burdens and potential criticism. The conversation shifts to the broader "deep state" and intelligence community abuses during the Obama era, including the weaponization of intelligence against Trump and recent revelations like the discovery of classified documents in "burn bags." Burleson calls for prosecutions of those responsible, calling the political weaponization treasonous. Lastly, Burleson predicts Congress will likely pass a continuing resolution to avoid a government shutdown, acknowledging the difficulty in passing full appropriations due to competing interests and earmarks.

How do you plan for the scientific discoveries of the future? That's the question Chancellor Rachel Reeves had to try to answer with this week's Spending Review. She allocated more than 22 billion pounds a year by 2029/30 for research and development which was described as a boost for science. Robin Bisson, UK News Editor for news website Research Professional News, and Dr Alicia Greated, Executive Director at the charity Campaign for Science and Engineering in the UK, explain where the money will go.As the UN's Ocean Conference continues in Nice, France, we get the latest developments from Science and Climate Correspondent Esme Stallard, before diving into a kelp forest in our own UK waters with reporter Graihagh Jackson.

Two weeks ago, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments on April 30, 2025, about whether Oklahoma can operate the nation's first faith-based charter school. If the Supreme Court decides their way, St. Isidore of Seville would be a virtual, K-12 school run by the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Oklahoma City and the Diocese of Tulsa. We should note that a lot of conservatives are with St. Isidore. Alliance Defending Freedom's Jim Campbell was one of the attorneys arguing on behalf of the Oklahoma charter board and the school. Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt, a Republican supporter of St. Isidore, said the case “stands to be one of the most significant religious and education freedom decisions in our lifetime.” The conservative legal group Liberty Counsel filed an amicus brief in the case, also in favor of St. Isidore. But not everyone – even on the conservative and Christian side of the aisle — is so enthusiastic. David Dockery is the president of the International Alliance for Christian Education. He told MinistryWatch, “IACE does not have an official position on the St Isidore case since we do not have full agreement on this matter among those who serve on the Board.” Dan Burrell is a longtime Christian education leader. Today he serves as a pastor in Charlotte, N.C., and the chairman of the board of MinistryWatch. His experience includes a tenure as president of the Florida Association of Christian Colleges and Schools. He was also a faculty member at Liberty University's graduate school of education. Burrell said he was “pretty strongly opposed” to government-funded religious schools.

Open Forum: Pastor Amos shared his decision to decline an opportunity to run for City Council, explaining that the role would be a distraction from his God-given purpose. He introduced a four-part decision-making framework—critical, strategic, nice to have, and irrelevant—to help assess opportunities based on alignment with vision, which sparked meaningful discussion among participants. Stephanie raised concerns about accepting government funding for a documentary promoting godly marriage among Gen Z, and Pastor Amos encouraged her to evaluate whether such funding could compromise her message. Ark shared his improving financial situation and a new job offer, leading to a conversation about balancing financial needs and purpose in different life seasons. Stephanie also praised God for resolving her daughter's financial and legal issues through a series of divine interventions. Pastor Amos reflected on the stages of a man's life, from son to king to sage, emphasizing the importance of embracing each season and adjusting one's focus accordingly. The group also discussed the challenges of balancing work, family, and faith, and the importance of trusting God's timing and direction through every phase of life.   Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com
