Host Radell Lewis breaks down everything you need to know about Ohio's 9th Congressional District heading into the 2026 midterms. After the Ohio Redistricting Commission redrew the map to lean Republican by over 10 points, longtime incumbent Marcy Kaptur the longest-serving woman in congressional history faces her toughest reelection yet. Radell goes candidate by candidate through the crowded GOP primary field: Derek Merrin (Trump-endorsed, 2024 rematch candidate), Madison Sheehan (former ICE deputy director), Anthony Campbell (healthcare executive with the most detailed policy platform), Aaliyah Nadeem (Air Force veteran), and Josh Williams (MAGA-aligned state rep). Who has the best shot at winning the Republican primary? And can any of them actually beat Kaptur in the general election? Plus, Radell covers critical Ohio political news: the Ohio House voting to ban ranked choice voting statewide, the campaign to repeal Ohio's intoxicating hemp ban before the March deadline, Republican efforts to tie college funding to compliance with higher education overhaul legislation, and the latest from the First Energy bribery trial the biggest corruption case in Ohio history involving former CEO Chuck Jones and the HB-6 scandal that sent former House Speaker Larry Householder to federal prison.

The WorldView in 5 Minutes
How the late Jesse Jackson flip-flopped on abortion; Picture leaked of Hillary Clinton in Epstein file inquiry; Islamic State's ‘new phase' in Syria as U.S. military withdraws

The WorldView in 5 Minutes

Play Episode Listen Later Feb 27, 2026


It's Friday, February 27th, 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 Islamic State's ‘new phase' in Syria as U.S. military withdraws Within the last week, the Islamic State terror group has launched an unusual series of attacks in Syria, part of what it calls a “new phase of operations” against the 11-month-old Syrian government, reports International Christian Concern. Simultaneously, the United States is actively withdrawing from bases in the area. Fighting between Syrian government forces and U.S.-allied Kurdish forces has weakened the resistance faced by the Islamic State.  The terrorist group has been relatively inactive in and around Syria since its territorial defeat in 2019, instead shifting its focus to Africa. Syrian President Ahmed Hussein al-Sharaa was previously a member of the Islamic State and is an avowed jihadist. While he's made bold public statements about his interest in peace and tolerance, forces associated with his government have repeatedly committed or allowed mass tragedies to take place. CNN: No clear Democratic presidential frontrunner CNN data analyst Harry Enten revealed that two years away from the 2028 Democratic presidential primary season, the party's prospects look dim, reports The Western Journal. Listen. ENTEN: “This is just a downright clown car at this point on the Democratic side. I mean, just take a look here: Top choices for the 2028 Dem. pres. nominee. You have a leader, but it's not really a clear leader. It's within the margin of error. You have [Gavin] Newsom at 19%, then you have former Vice President Kamala Harris at 18% -- quite a weak number for her, given that, of course, she was the nominee the last time around. Pete Buttigieg, who, of course, has run before: 13%.  [Rep.] Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [of New York] at 12%. “This is just a total clown car. It is a total mess. There is no clear front runner at this particular point on the Democratic side. This is very unusual for the Democratic side to not have a clear front runner. “At this point in 2020, when there was no incumbent, it was Joe Biden who was there, Hillary Clinton in both ‘08 and ‘16 and Al Gore in both 2000 and 2004 at this point were at least at 25%.” Picture leaked of Hillary Clinton in Epstein file inquiry Chaos erupted inside Hillary Clinton's Jeffrey Epstein deposition on Thursday after a Republican lawmaker took a photograph of her during the private session, reports the Daily Mail.  Republican Congresswoman Lauren Boebert of Colorado snapped a picture of Hillary at the deposition, then leaked it to conservative influencer Benny Johnson who offered his thoughts. JOHNSON: “Lauren Bobert sent me this photo and told me I could publish it just to show everyone that Hillary Clinton is testifying. It's not a big deal. This is what Hillary Clinton looks like. But her entire team lost their minds over this and started screeching about this. There's nothing wrong with posting this photo. The Clintons themselves are the ones who demanded that there be media inside of the room. They wanted this all be live streamed on TV.  So, what's wrong with this? They're just looking for an excuse to get out of this testimony. That's what's actually going on.” Hillary's lawyers asked that the proceedings be halted after the photograph began circulating on social media. Johnson spoke to Hillary's motive and claimed she had already lied in a press statement she released ahead of her testimony. JOHNSON: “She's already lied, by the way. She said that she didn't know Jeffrey Epstein, but that's not true. Not only did her husband, of course, have Jeffrey Epstein at the White House a million times, fly on his plane a million times, but Jeffrey Epstein's own emails show that he knew her multiple times. “In Jeffrey Epstein's emails, he talks about what Hillary Clinton looks like up close. He talks about meetings with Hillary Clinton. All these people are emailing Jeffrey Epstein saying, ‘Hey, man, we know that you know Hillary Clinton. Can you get me a meeting with her?' So, this seems like an obvious lie. And this is what they're trying to distract from because I posted a photo?” The former secretary of state was deposed at the Chappaqua Performing Arts Center near the Clintons' home in Westchester County, New York, while Bill Clinton will testify today.  Indiana: Christian adoptive families & agencies can affirm Biblical ethic On Wednesday, Indiana Republican Governor Mike Braun signed HB 1389, a bill that ensures families and Christian adoption and foster care groups that want to provide loving homes for kids are not pushed out because of their religious or moral beliefs, reports Alliance Defending Freedom. Greg Chafuen, Senior Counsel for the Christian legal rights group, said, “Every child deserves a loving home that can provide them stability and opportunities to grow. The sad reality is that the government in some states has discriminated against people of faith, allowing vulnerable children to suffer. Thankfully, Indiana has taken critical steps to prioritize the well-being of kids.” The anti-God forces reject the truth of Genesis 2:24 which says, “A man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.” How the late Jesse Jackson flip-flopped on abortion And finally, Rev. Jesse Jackson, who met his Creator on February 17th at the age of 84, was a civil rights activist and two-time presidential candidate in 1984 and 1988. Before he sold out to the abortion lobby in his aspiration to be Commander-in-Chief, LifeNews columnist Raimundo Rojas explained that Jackson “spoke with rare moral clarity about the child in the womb.” In a March 22,1973 interview, just two months after Roe v. Wade, Jackson told Jet magazine, “Abortion is genocide. Anything growing is living. … If you got the thrill to set the baby in motion, and you don't have the will to protect it, you're dishonest.” That same year Jackson said, "Abortion is too nice a word for something cold, like murder," according to the New York Times. In a column he wrote for National Right to Life News in January 1977, Jackson compared abortion to the old defenses of slavery. He warned that “the name has changed, but the game remains the same” when society strips the baby of protection. He spoke of new life with reverence, insisting, “It takes three to make a baby: a man, a woman, and the Holy Spirit.” Then ambition met party power. As Jesse Jackson moved toward a presidential run inside a Democratic Party that increasingly demanded loyalty to abortion, his public stance began to soften. By 1984, he described himself as “for freedom of choice, not pro-abortion,” and said that while he held a pro-life view, he did not want to “force” it on others through law. By 1988, he argued that “it is not right to impose private, religious and moral positions on public policy,”  according to the Washington Post. Raimundo Rojas of LifeNews concluded, “The man who once called abortion genocide now treated his convictions as a private matter. Nothing in science or reason justified that turn. What changed was the political cost of speaking on behalf of the child. “His life holds a lesson for every believer and every political leader. You cannot keep your deepest convictions in one box and your public positions in another. Do not trade moral clarity for political convenience. Do not let party loyalty silence your conscience.” Isaiah 5:20 says, “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, February 27th, in the year of our Lord 2026. 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.  Plus, you can get the Generations app through Google Play or The App Store.

This is a very special episode of the Black Baseball Mixtape podcast. Award-winning author, journalist, and producer Howard Bryant returns to the Mixtape. Cheats and HB go one-on-one discussing his new book, Kings and Pawns: Jackie Robinson and Paul Robeson in America. The conversation takes place in the immediate aftermath of the passing of Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr., and Bryant and Cheats take a moment at the start of the episode to reflect on his legacy. The book is a must-read. Cheats and Bryant discuss many themes in the book, including the looming presence of the Cold War, the overeconomic climate affecting both Robinson and Robeson, political leadership, and, of course, the business of baseball. But the magic of the conversation is how they apply the themes of the '50s, '60s, and '70s to today's landscape.Jackie Robinson and Paul Robeson are giants. But one's legacy, Robinson, is criminally misunderstood, while the other, Robeson, is woefully overlooked, even forgotten. The book tells an amazing story about these two men, and this podcast is an excellent companion.

Episode 263: Rights Come From God, Not Government

No Doubt About It

What happens when politics tries to fill a God-sized space? We open with a clear challenge: America's founding claim that rights come from a Creator, not the state, sets a higher bar than any law can reach. From there, we follow the fault lines where faith, policy, and media narratives collide—and why it matters for voters who care about integrity as much as outcomes.We break down the Texas Senate shake-up and the viral Colbert segment that never aired on broadcast TV. Spoiler: it wasn't censorship; it was the equal time rule for over-the-air networks, and moving online changed the calculus. The bigger story is how scripture gets pulled into campaigns. We press on the risks of proof-texting the Bible to justify policy, and why teachers, pastors-in-training, and public figures face stricter accountability when they lean on theology to win arguments.Closer to home, New Mexico's HB 99 puts a real dent in malpractice chaos with clear caps and “one incident, one occurrence,” making it possible for doctors to get insured and stay in practice. Meanwhile, SB 17's broad gun restrictions may be too sweeping to survive court scrutiny—so sweeping that even some gun-control allies are wary of the precedent it could set. On the economic front, average tax refunds are up, and that could nudge public mood even if prices still sting. Fresh polling shows Republicans leading on national security and immigration, Democrats ahead on healthcare and Social Security, and the economy nearly tied—evidence that persuasion still matters.We widen the lens to foreign policy pressure points—negotiations with Iran, and the high-stakes gambits around Venezuela and Cuba—then come back to human cost at the border with a searing account from Tom Homan about rescuing a trafficked 14-year-old. Voter integrity gets a pragmatic take from Kevin O'Leary: prove citizenship, use modern tech, end the recurring doubts. And a preventable avalanche tragedy in the Sierra shows what happens when risk signals are ignored, even as forecasts scream danger. We close with a nod to reliability (hello, Toyota and Subaru) and a simple, powerful throwback ad that reminds us politics once ran on neighbors helping neighbors.If this resonated, follow the show, leave a review, and share it with a friend who loves straight talk as much as you do.Website: https://www.nodoubtaboutitpodcast.com/Twitter: @nodoubtpodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/NoDoubtAboutItPod/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/markronchettinm/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D

On the Morning News Express, Bob Miller welcomed Chuck Jenkins, Sheriff of Frederick County, to discuss the impact of Wes Moore signing legislation (SB 245/HB 444) that bans state and local law enforcement from entering into 287(g) agreements with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The new law requires all existing partnerships to end immediately or by July 2026, effectively shutting down the program across Maryland. Sheriff Jenkins, who had maintained one of the longest-running 287(g) partnerships in the country since 2008, explained that he has ordered his staff to cease all immigration-related duties to comply with the law. He and Bob discussed the next steps for the Sheriff’s Office, what the change could mean for public safety, and how the county will adjust moving forward. It was a timely and important conversation on a major shift in local law enforcement policy.

The system uses a proprietary boosterless mount and boosterless booster assembly for reliable function on various pistol calibers.

All items comply with National Firearms Act requirements and are available for purchase with appropriate ATF approvals. GOING BALLISTIC ATF's ‘Engaged in the Business' Rule Mirrors Canada's Firearms Confiscation Approach (Shooting Wire Analysis) The article argues that the ATF's Final Rule on the Definition of “Engaged in the Business” Selling Firearms and Ammunition, effective May 20, 2024, effectively enables a backdoor gun grab in the US similar to Canada's 2020 Order in Council banning over 1,500 firearms models. It claims the rule reclassifies private sales and occasional transfers as requiring a Federal Firearms License (FFL), mirroring Canada's prohibition-then-buyback strategy. The piece warns this erodes Second Amendment rights by criminalizing common firearm transactions without due process. Utah HB 431: GOP Rep. Cheryl Acton Pushes to Ban Open Carry on College Campuses (Savage) Utah Republican Representative Cheryl Acton has introduced House Bill 431 to prohibit the open carry of firearms on the campuses of public colleges and universities in the state. The bill targets loaded firearms visible to others, aiming to enhance campus safety amid concerns over gun violence. It applies specifically to institutions under the Utah Board of Higher Education. Tumbler Ridge Shooting Highlights Gun Control Arguments (Bearing Arms Analysis) (Savage) The article analyzes a shooting incident in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, Canada, where a man used a restricted firearm to kill two people before being stopped by an armed civilian. It critiques how gun control advocates exploit such tragedies to push for stricter laws despite existing severe restrictions on firearms in Canada. The piece argues that the incident demonstrates the consistent pattern of gun control arguments relying on emotional appeals rather than evidence of effectiveness. Bearing Arms: Reason Transgender Gun Ban Proposal Won't Advance (Savage) The article discusses a proposed federal rule by the Biden administration to prohibit firearm purchases by individuals with gender transition-related medical diagnoses, such as gender dysphoria. It argues the rule faces significant legal and political hurdles, including likely injunctions from courts that have blocked similar ATF actions. The author asserts it lacks momentum and is destined to fail. Shooting News Weekly Critique of Evidence-Free Claims on Guns and Public Safety Conflict (Savage) The article criticizes a purported expert's assertion of a conflict between concealed carry and public safety, labeling it as evidence-free hackery. It argues that such claims lack empirical support and misrepresent data on concealed carry impacts. The piece defends concealed carry by highlighting the absence of credible evidence linking it to increased public safety risks. New Mexico House Bill 86 (HB 86) Sweeping Gun Control Measure Scheduled for Hearing (Savage) New Mexico's House Bill 86 proposes comprehensive gun control measures including bans on assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and ghost guns, along with red flag laws and restrictions on open carry. The bill is set for a hearing before the House Judiciary Committee on February 17, 2026. Sponsored by Rep. Rehm, it aims to address gun violence through multiple regulatory changes. REVIEWS Review: Jaqin Ta'Sox from Connecticut From; Jaqin Ta'Sox: Review I still think y'all are gay. But, regarding ep 647. I agree with Jerambay, 99%. I agree with Shawn as far as the narrative being twisted, disagree with most of his thoughts on the agents. Everyone who can legally carry should be able carry everywhere, full stop. The narrative of him carrying a 320 with spare mags to “cause chaos” is BS. The difference in Rittenhouse and the Minisota Nut, is in their choices. Rittenhouse didn't look for danger, danger found him, he ran away, then defended himself. Minisota nut, put himself in the middle of a wave of insanity. Had he gave the agents a buffer, he could've yelled and cursed all he wanted. Tragic, but justified.   Review: From Jeff E Comment only. Liberals are the biggest fucking idiots. They try to tell us how Trump is a dick tator, while they do everything in their power to dismantle the Constitution, specifically 2A.

In this episode of the America's Work Force Union Podcast, we dive into two major battles for the future of public education and worker rights. First, Jason Rabinowitz, Secretary-Treasurer of Teamsters Local 2010, discusses the weeklong strike of 1,100 skilled trades workers across the California State University (CSU) system. He breaks down why the union is striking over "broken promises" regarding negotiated step increases and how the CSU system is prioritizing executive compensation over the workers who keep 22 campuses running. Next, we head to Ohio with Melissa Cropper, President of the Ohio Federation of Teachers (OFT). Cropper sounds the alarm on HB 671, a "bully bill" that threatens to withhold state funding from school districts that challenge state laws in court—specifically targeting those fighting EdChoice vouchers. She also addresses the professional autonomy concerns within HB 693 and the upcoming 2026 OFT Convention. What we discuss in this episode: The CSU Strike: Why electrical, HVAC, and plumbing workers are withdrawing their labor to enforce a signed contract. The "Step" Struggle: The 30-year fight to restore fair wage progression in California higher education. Ohio's HB 671: How a new bill seeks to financially penalize school districts for exercising their legal rights.

Hey it's Ron; earlier in the week I'd highlighted some sound legislative offerings from Republican women in the Georgia general assembly that I hoped Democrats would join in on and push across the finish line. There's another, giving pharmacists the ability to prescribe HIV prevention medication, again, penned by a Republican. This is encouraging to see. What's discouraging, of course, is that the same Georgia GOP saw fit earlier in the week to "poison-pill" a bill both parties were enthusiastic about - HB 54 - by adding anti-trans language into it. To discuss some of that refreshing (and rare) bipartisanship - but also the more troubling legislation making its way through this session, is Dr. Michelle Au, representative for Georgia's 50th House District, and host of the new podcast "Georgia Diagnosis."Rev. Senator Raphael Warnock added an amendment to DHS funding in an attempt end DHS/ICE purchasing warehouses in Oakwood and Social Circle, GA, two small communities sure to be overwhelmed by facilities their infrastructure cannot handle; the kind of treatment op/ed writer Patricia Murphy called 'unconscionable.' Then I got my mental wellness break with comedian / political satirist Sterling Thrill. Between 'Bad Bunny' triggering Megyn Kelly & Pam Bondi going full "Karen" with her flash cards, we had plenty to chuckle about - and did. Lastly, an op/ed I saw from Mariah Parker & Dominique Grant at Fair Play ATL reminded us all that Atlanta's Olympic legacy isn't just tarnished by a bombing, but a lack of positive impact - and its negative impacts on housing affordability. It's their push to insist that Atlanta hosting eight FIFA World Cup matches in 2026 invests its windfall in positive change and a lack of ICE in the city's streets.

Mickey Stines' defense team just filed a motion that could reshape the entire trajectory of this case. The former Letcher County sheriff, charged with shooting and killing District Judge Kevin Mullins inside his chambers in September 2024, is now claiming he has a serious intellectual disability or serious mental illness that should legally exempt him from execution under a 2022 Kentucky statute.But here's what the motion doesn't include: a diagnosis. No named condition. No medical records attached. Just a legal citation and a request for a hearing. Kentucky's HB 269 requires a documented diagnosis of one of exactly four conditions — schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, or delusional disorder — with active symptoms at the time of the offense. The law has been used successfully one time in the state's history, in a case where the judge said the evidence of lifelong mental illness was overwhelming.We go deep on what that precedent looked like, what evidence Stines' defense has assembled so far — including witness accounts of paranoia, a jail evaluation describing active psychosis, and his claim of California encephalitis — and what the prosecution has ready to counter it. The doctor's visit the day before the shooting. The surveillance footage. The sealed psychiatric evaluation that nobody's talking about. And the broader question of whether this motion is about saving Stines from the needle or about building an insanity narrative before a jury is ever seated.This is the legal chess match underneath the case everyone's been watching. And the next move matters.#MickeyStines #ShawnStines #KevinMullins #LetcherCounty #KentuckyMurder #DeathPenaltyDefense #InsanityPlea #CourthouseShooting #HB269 #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

GOING BALLISTIC Maryland House Judiciary Committee to Hear HB 874 Handgun Ban Bill The Maryland House Judiciary Committee is scheduled to hear House Bill 874 on February 12, 2025, which seeks to ban the manufacture, sale, and possession of certain semiautomatic handguns classified as ‘assault pistols.' The bill targets specific models like the Beretta 92X Performance, CZ P-10C, Glock 19, Sig Sauer P320, and Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0, among others listed in proposed Criminal Law Article § 4-302.

California AG Sues Gatalog Over 3D-Printed Gun CAD Files Distribution California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit against Gatalog LLC and its operator, Len Patterson, for allegedly distributing CAD files for 3D-printing unserialized firearms, violating state ghost gun laws.

It seeks to halt the distribution and impose civil penalties under California's assault weapons and unsafe handgun laws. New Mexico House Bill 82: Democrats Advance Broadest Gun Ban in US New Mexico House Democrats are poised to pass House Bill 82 this week, which would ban dozens of semi-automatic firearms including AR-15s, AK-47s, and many handguns. The bill targets firearms with detachable magazines and specific features like pistol grips or folding stocks. It has advanced through committee and is scheduled for a House floor vote. Gun Owners of America Action Alert: Oppose S. 407 Anti-Gun Bill (February 3, 2026) Gun Owners of America urges members to contact Senators to oppose S. 407, a bill introduced by Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) that would ban commonly owned semi-automatic firearms, including AR-15s and similar rifles.

It also bans magazines over 10 rounds and imposes restrictions on private transfers.

DOJ Amicus Brief in Support of Challenge to Massachusetts Handgun Roster (Savage) The U.S. Department of Justice filed an amicus curiae brief in a federal lawsuit challenging Massachusetts' handgun roster law, arguing that the Attorney General's authority to ban handguns lacking arbitrary safety features violates the Second Amendment. The brief, submitted in the case Reese v. Department of Revenue, contends that the roster effectively prohibits most modern handguns by imposing subjective loaded chamber indicator and magazine disconnect requirements not justified by public safety data. It cites post-Bruen precedents to assert that Massachusetts' scheme fails constitutional scrutiny. Oregon Democrats Propose Two-Year Delay for Permit-to-Purchase Law (HB 2005) (Savage) Oregon Democrats are advancing a proposal to delay the implementation of the state's new permit-to-purchase handgun law, HB 2005, from its original August 2026 start date to August 2028.

SHOCKING: Kentucky Universities Caught RED-HANDED Breaking State Law—ADMITTING on Hidden Camera They're Still Pushing Illegal DEI!

Not surprising but shocking how brazen they are in admitting to what they are doing. In 2025, the Kentucky Legislature passed HB 4, a law that finally took aim at the divisive college DEI programs. It banned:- Providing differential treatment or benefits based on an individual's religion, race, sex, color, or national origin (e.g., in admissions, scholarships, employment, or housing assignments, with very limited exceptions). - Influencing the composition of the student body, scholarship recipients, or similar groups on those bases. - Spending any taxpayer dollars on DEI initiatives, the promotion of "discriminatory topics," or bias incident investigations. - Soliciting statements from applicants about their experiences with or views on religion, race, sex, color, or national origin (no more DEI loyalty tests in applications). - Requiring courses dedicated to "discriminatory concepts" (broadly defined as ideas that justify or promote differential treatment based on those protected categories; it outlaws courses whose primary purpose is to indoctrinate students with such concepts). - Requiring individuals to endorse or condemn specific ideologies or viewpoints. - Disseminating or profiting from materials that promote or justify discriminatory concepts.Specific examples of these practices priorly include the Kentucky Council on Postsecondary Education tying funding to racial quotas and spending taxpayer money on programs that discriminated against students based on skin color.These practices aren't just racist—they're also unconstitutional. The Kentucky Legislature wisely got ahead of the lawsuits, especially after the U.S. Supreme Court recently ruled against colleges for these exact discriminatory schemes.In response, universities scattered their DEI departments like roaches in the light—changing job titles, hiding staff in other departments, and pretending nothing changed. But Accuracy in Media (AIM) has done real undercover journalism and exposed that Kentucky universities rank among the worst in the nation for still enforcing these racist DEI policies while openly admitting they know they're breaking the law.Adam Guillette of AIM joined me to discuss his group's explosive recent video from the University of Kentucky. In it, staffers casually reveal they're keeping DEI alive under the radar—defying both state law and common sense. He also teased more undercover investigation videos from Kentucky campuses coming soon.
