A bipartisan bill is meant to protect kids online, but privacy experts are worried it could do more harm than good. First, we talk with Megan Graham of the University of Iowa College of Law on why the KIDS Act has raised some alarms. We also talk with Iowa State psychologist Doug Gentile about what's at risk when young people use social media.

In a statement on X, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said he will block President Donald Trump's push to rename Penn Station. He added that it's a public building paid for by taxpayers. And that it belongs to the 600,000 people who walk through the station every day. WFUV's Sienna Reinders has more. Protecting children online will soon become easier in New York State. WFUV's Mia Barth explains the final regulations for the SAFE for Kids Act to keep children out of algorithmic feeds. Mayor Zohran Mamdani launched a new sports and innovation challenge through the city's Summer Youth Employment Program. Tahlia Pearson has more on how the new initiative is preparing students for careers beyond the playing field. The results are in: 63% of New Yorkers satisfied with the overall subway system. A slight increase from last year, according to the MTA. But others still want to see improvements to lessen delays, and renovate train cars and stations. WFUV's Lainey Nguyen went to the D line, which is the line that New Yorkers are least satisfied with.

Nigerian Christian pastor, father of 16, needs your help; Martyrdom of Czech reformer Jan Hus in 1415; Idaho: First state to institute firing squad for execution

It's Monday, July 6th, 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 Nigerian Christian pastor, father of 16, needs your help As you know, Nigeria has become the epicenter of Christian martyrdom in the world. In the initial 96 days of 2026, from January 1 to April 6, Muslims killed 1,402 Nigerian Christians. Shockingly, that represents 72% of Christians killed worldwide.  In 2025, 3,490 Nigerian Christians were martyred.  A total of 52,000 brothers and sisters in Christ have lost their lives in the last decade.  Plus, Nigeria has been going through severe economic challenges as well, most of which are due to the country's 30% inflation rate.  Some Worldview listeners here in America are trying to help Nigerian Pastor G, a man they know personally and the father of 14 children, move to the United Kingdom for their safety and a better economic opportunity. Currently, his family lives in a small, one bedroom/one bath apartment with no kitchen. They use a small hallway as the place to prepare food. The family has three sets of triple bunk beds jammed in the bedroom, family room, and hallway. In addition, the power outages are frequent in Nigeria, which means that there's little to no air circulation in their tiny apartment.  Through a GoFundMe page, these American friends are helping raise the money needed to pay for a larger 3-bedroom apartment where the family of 16 can reside while they're gathering their required documents and visas. Other expenses include the air fare for the family and the initial three months of living expenses in the United Kingdom until the working-aged family members find jobs. Galatians 6:2 says, "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." Check out Pastor G's 3-minute-long personal appeal, Pastor G's YouTube ministry channel, and a 41-minute documentary about the persecution in Nigeria called Faith Under Fire. We have them all linked in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com.  U.S. and Iran enter technical talks to secure peace deal The U.S. and Iran held technical talks in Doha, Qatar on July 1st as they seek to agree on the flow of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and secure a lasting ceasefire, reports Reuters. The talks are based on a 14-point interim accord signed last month that was meant to halt the war that began with U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran in February and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, whilst setting up 60 days of negotiations for a permanent peace deal. However, the U.S. and Iran have sparred publicly over the meaning of the interim pact, leading to military strikes over the past week.  Iran is determined to win international recognition of its control over the strait and its ability to levy fees on ships entering or leaving the Persian Gulf even if it has to do so by force. Traffic has partially resumed through the strait, which handled one-fifth of global oil and liquefied natural gas trade before the war. Iran has stated publicly that its priorities include agreeing on management of the Strait of Hormuz and the release of $6 billion in Iranian frozen assets. The current round of discussions would focus on those two issues. The stated priority of the U.S. is to ensure the free flow of traffic through the strait. President Donald Trump faces political pressure to contain the economic fallout from the war with Iran before midterm elections in November that will determine control of the U.S. Congress. In Iran, the theocratic leadership survived the war, but faces domestic anger over a shattered economy. Oil prices, which dipped sharply in the second quarter of the year, fell more than 1% on July 1st. The interim deal between the U.S. and Iran also provides for an end to a parallel conflict between Israel and the Iran-backed militant group Hezbollah in Lebanon. House passes online protections to shield children from porn The House successfully passed its internet safety package for children while the Senate continues to stall, reports The Daily Signal.   The Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act includes a key amendment that would protect children from viewing sexual content online, a statistic that continues to grow. Republican Congresswoman Mary Miller of Illinois, a mother of seven, who attends Oakland Christian Church with her husband Illinois GOP State Representative Chris Miller, sponsored the KIDS Act.  It combines 14 digital safety bills, including a key age-verification amendment. The Shielding Children's Retinas from Egregious Exposure on the Net Act would require platforms to use technology verification tools to ensure the accuracy of age verification to prevent minors from accessing sexual material. Congresswoman Miller said, “Sadly, the average age that our children are accessing pornography on the internet is 11, and by the time our children turn 18, 80% of them have access to pornography. Parents are doing their best, but the truth is, with a few clicks of a button, kids can access this filth. Research shows that it causes anxiety, depression, and risky sexual behavior. It's a rot to the soul of our children.” Congresswoman Miller added, “We require age identification for children to access other things like tobacco, alcohol, firearms, casinos, and any kind of adult entertainment. You have to prove your age. So, that's all this bill does. It requires the pornography companies to make the user prove their age.”  The KIDS Act has been sent to the Senate. Call your 2 U.S. Senators at 202-224-3121 and ask them to vote for the KIDS Act to protect children from pornography. In Matthew 18:10, Jesus said, “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that in Heaven their angels always see the face of My Father in Heaven." And send a 2-sentence thank you note to Congresswoman Mary Miller for her bold stand to protect the innocence of children. Send it to 3236 Broadway St, Suite 200, Quincy, IL 62301. Idaho: First state to institute firing squad for execution Idaho became the first state to institute a firing squad as the primary execution method for death row inmates, reports One America News. The change went into effect on July 1st  after the state legislature passed the law in 2025. However, lethal injection remains an alternative method. Other states have the firing squad explicitly listed as an alternative method including Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Utah. Martyrdom of Czech reformer Jan Hus in 1415 Six hundred eleven years ago today, on July 6th, 1415, Jan Hus, a Czech theologian and reformer, was burned at the stake in Constance, Germany for so-called “heresy.”  Hus denounced the moral failings of Catholic clergy, bishops, and even the papacy from his pulpit. He also objected to the Catholic teaching of indulgences, a financial gift to the church that would somehow shorten a dead Catholic's time in purgatory, a place nowhere substantiated in Scripture. Before his brutal execution, a tall paper hat was allegedly put upon his head with the inscription that meant “the leader of a heretical movement.” Worldview listeners in Indiana and New York weigh in I've asked for Worldview listeners to let me know why they like the broadcast in emails including their full name, city and state.   In an email sent to Adam@TheWorldview.com,  Adam Brouwer in Fort Wayne, Indiana wrote, “I just finished listening to today's newscast. I want to thank you for being biblically grounded . It's a great start to the day. It allows us to focus on what's going on around the world in a Christ-centered way. Keep up the great work.” And Sharon Jenx in Unadilla, New York said, “I started listening to The Worldview about three month ago. I love that only news is presented and your perspective is supported by God's opinion, articulated in His Word, not the world's!” 12 Worldview listeners gave $4,140 last Friday And finally, last Friday, 12 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another 365 days.

This week, Nicki Petrossi and Sarah Gardner take listeners to Washington, D.C., following an emotional and powerful Social Media Victims Remembrance Day (SMVRD)—a day dedicated to honoring the children lost to social media harms and the families fighting to prevent more names from being added to the memorial each year.The episode explores why families, advocates, and lawmakers gathered on Capitol Hill to demand action, and why so many parents believe the burden of protecting children online can no longer rest on families alone. Nicki and Sarah reflect on the growing national awareness of social media harms, the momentum created by the ongoing addiction trials, and the frustration of watching meaningful reform continue to stall.They also break down two major developments in Washington: reports that tech CEOs may avoid a highly anticipated Senate hearing on social media harms, and the passage of the controversial Kids Internet and Digital Safety Act (KIDS Act), which critics say prioritizes Big Tech interests over child safety.Later, parent survivor and Alexander Neville Foundation founder Amy Neville joins the show to share why she and Kristen Bride created SMVRD, what this year's event meant to impacted families, and why keeping courthouse doors open and holding platforms accountable remains critical to protecting future generations.Plus, Nicki and Sarah discuss the growing global movement to raise the age of social media access, why age-gating alone won't solve the problem, and the one change experts believe would make the biggest difference: eliminating the addictive features that keep children hooked.Because remembrance without action isn't enough.Here's a letter-writing tool to contact your Senators. Ask them to Vote "No" on the KIDS Act that passed in the House of Representatives. The Heat is On is an investigative mini-series by Scrolling 2 Death in partnership with Heat Initiative. Thank you to our expert editor, Jacob Meade.

The law allows the government to force telecom providers to give them your information. This includes metadata, search history, websites you've visited, conversations you've had, etc. If the telecom provider does not give the government your info when ordered, they can be fined as much as $15 million per person. The law also allows the government to put gag orders on the telecom giants, prohibiting the provider from telling you why their information was taken. It also allows the government to shut down your internet access. None of these rules require prior judicial approval. There is basically no oversight. No transparency. No warrants. Bill C-8 (which previously failed as Bill C-26) is essentially an internet killswitch to be used however the state deems "appropriate." Your information can also be later used against you in a court of law and can be used to control your access to goods and services as the digital ID system is implemented across the board. This bill correlates a lot with other atrocious Canadian bills of recent. Bill C-9 defines what you are allowed to say and threatens to force consequences on you if you hurt someone's feelings. Bill C-22 allows the government to collect metadata on you for them to arrest you for "hate speech." When Prime Minister Mark Carney said he was creating a "new world order" with a giant digital umbrella system (much like BlackRock's Larry Fink and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said they wished to do), this is exactly what he means. A giant technocratic system of surveillance and control. The United States is currently passing the KIDS Act which allows controls over your data and the coercion of all online companies demanding your government issued IDs to visit their sites. This is on top of dozens of states enforcing internet IDs already. The US is also pushing forward a law to force people to show 5 years of their social media history to enter the country, 10 years of email data, photo metadata, iris scans, etc. The UK is pushing forward Digital IDs as well as under-16 social media bans which will be a Trojan horse to force people to give all services their identification to use the internet.

A massive legal wave is crashing into Big Tech—and Tara says the real consequence isn't just payouts… it's control. After major losses against Meta and Google, thousands of lawsuits are lining up. The claim? Social media is addictive by design. The solution? Verify users—especially kids. But Tara warns that “protecting children” could be the gateway to something much bigger: digital ID, loss of anonymity, and a fully tracked internet. ⚡ EPISODE SUMMARY Tara breaks down a critical turning point for the internet—and it's happening fast. With Meta and Google facing thousands of lawsuits over claims their platforms harm children, courts are sending a clear message: the features themselves are the problem. Algorithms. Engagement systems. The entire structure of social media. That liability creates an impossible demand—prove who is a child online. And there's only one way to do that: verify everyone. Tara connects the dots between U.S. legislation like the Kids Act, global rollouts in Australia and the UK, and the quiet emergence of digital identity systems tied to facial scans, credit cards, and government IDs. What starts as age verification could quickly evolve into a system where: Your identity is permanently tied to your online activity Platforms retain your personal data Speech can be tracked, filtered, and deprioritized And the most important part—this may happen without any law ever requiring it.

When a child interrupts your phone call, acts goofy at the worst time, or melts down after you walk in the door, it can be a bid for connection that clashes with your stress and burnout. Using a brain-based parenting lens, we talk about why those moments trigger adults, how kids pick up on our posture and energy, and why a quick, connected response often prevents bigger behavior later.We also get practical about what connection seeking looks like at different ages, from toddlers who want constant closeness to teens who act aloof while still craving reassurance. We share simple scripts, the “love tank” idea, and why being “annoyingly reassuring” can protect adolescents from chasing connection in riskier places. If you care about child behavior, trauma-informed parenting, and building a home where kids feel seen, this conversation will give you tools you can use today..Contact:podcasts@calfarley.org To Donate: https://secure.calfarley.org/site/Donation2?3358.donation=form1&df_id=3358&mfc_pref=TTo Apply:https://apply.workable.com/cal-farleys-boys-ranch/j/25E1226091/For More Information about Cal Farley's Boys Ranch:https://www.calfarley.org/Music:"Shine" -NewsboysCCS License No. 9402

We are joined by Tabitha, a survivor of the notorious Tranquility Bay in Jamaica and a relentless force for change.Tabitha isn't just sharing her story; she is leading a revolution. From the harrowing memories of overseas "treatment" to the systemic failures that leave survivors homeless and unheard, we explore the dark reality of an industry that operates in the shadows.But there is hope on the horizon. We break down the Protect the Kids Act—a landmark bill designed to dismantle the TTI by banning out-of-country placements and enforcing strict mental health oversight.  PLEASE SIGN & SHARE OUR PETITION:https://c.org/8BXpyZKnrz#SurvivorsUnrestrained #ProtectTheKids #TTI #ChildAdvocacy WE NEED YOUR HELP — RIGHT NOW. For decades, children in “youth residential programs,” wilderness camps, and the so-called Troubled Teen Industry have been abused, silenced, and taken far from home with no federal protections.It's time to change that.Survivors Unrestrained just launched a national petition demanding Congress pass the Protect Kids Act — a federal bill that would finally protect ALL children in every youth residential program in America.This bill will: Require a licensed clinician to determine if residential treatment is medically necessary Ban forced transport (“gooning”) STOP sending children across state lines without medical justification Completely ban sending children out of the country Require a 24/7 licensed clinician on site Ban seclusion, punishment-based restraint, and deprivation Guarantee communication rights so kids can call home and report abuse Protect foster youth from being institutionalized due to lack of beds Protect court-ordered youth with strict medical, legal, and safety standards Require accredited education and real medical/mental health care Mandate federal transparency and data reporting Create a Survivor-Led Federal Inspection Task Force to expose abuse Hold owners and staff accountable through background checks and oversight…and so much more.For the first time in U.S. history, this bill would create REAL federal protections for kids — because NO child should ever become a survivor of institutional abuse. This bill was created with survivor leadership, but it protects EVERY child.And now we need YOUR voice. Support the show

What Fresh Hell: Laughing in the Face of Motherhood | Parenting Tips From Funny Moms

Why do kids often act so differently at school than they do at home? In this episode, you'll learn how skills like adaptability and “theory of mind” develop over time, why younger kids struggle more with behavior shifts, and how structure, transitions, and social pressure shape school-day behavior. We explore concepts like afterschool restraint collapse, social battery depletion, and masking—and why post-school meltdowns are usually a good sign, in that your home is a place your kid feels safe. You'll learn some practical strategies for making things easier, including creating afterschool rituals, using visual schedules, feeding kids early and often, collaborating with teachers, and getting curious instead of reactive when behavior changes.

A regulator has accused NVIDIA of violating China's antitrust laws over its acquisition of chipmaker Mellanox. In its preliminary findings of an investigation it commenced in December, the State Administration for Market Regulation claimed that the company breached both national regulations and the conditional terms China outlined when it rubber-stamped the $6.9 billion takeover. Also, on Monday, the state's Attorney General Letitia James released more specifics about what the SAFE for Kids Act will entail in practice. And, Valve has apparently updated its Steam Early Access policy to no longer accept games with what the company deems to be "mature themes." As first reported by Gamesmarkt earlier this month, gaming studio Dammitbird, which develops the adult adventure game Heavy Hearts, was not allowed to put the title on Steam Early Access because of its content.

In this episode of the Play Therapy Parenting Podcast, I respond to a heartfelt question from Heather, a mom navigating divorce while helping her young child through big emotions and challenging behaviors like aggression and biting. I discuss how changes in relationships—such as a deployed parent, a changing caregiver, or shifting custody arrangements—can deeply impact a child's sense of stability and security. I explain why behaviors like biting and aggression often stem from emotional overwhelm rather than defiance and share practical, child-centered strategies to help guide children through these struggles. I also walk through limit-setting techniques that preserve the parent-child relationship while teaching emotional regulation and self-control. From handling aggression in the moment to reinforcing choices and natural consequences, I provide a clear framework for parents to set boundaries with confidence and consistency. If you're struggling with similar challenges, this episode will give you the tools to respond with empathy, structure, and intentionality.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (06/20/2024): 3:05pm- During a CNN panel discussion, host Dana Bash suggested she is hesitant to play videos of Joe Biden for fear that snippets of the content will be used to portray the president as old and feeble. Earlier this week, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre baselessly claimed that Republicans were using “cheap fakes” to make President Biden look bad. But, as Rich notes, the videos are not fake, and no one is making them look any worse than they otherwise would be—Biden is making himself look bad all on his own. 3:30pm- During last week's G7 meeting in Italy, a video went viral when Italian Prime Minister Georgia Meloni appeared to corral President Joe Biden who—at that moment—was staring into the woods. Biden's campaign team has argued that the video is a “cheap fake,” and that the zoomed in version of the original video fails to display a paratrooper Biden was speaking with. However, as Matt explains, the original version of the video may be even more damning than the “cheap fake!” 3:40pm- Speaking with Anderson Cooper on CNN, New York Times journalist Maggie Haberman revealed that Donald Trump is taking next week's presidential debate very seriously, working tirelessly to prepare for it. 3:45pm- While appearing on MSNBC, former Meet the Press host Chuck Todd told Katy Tur that Donald Trump appears to be getting his 2016 “swagger” back—which could be bad news for Joe Biden in the 2024 election. 4:05pm- Elizabeth Pipko—Spokeswoman for the Republican National Committee—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump's upcoming campaign rally at Temple University's campus in Philadelphia, PA on Saturday, June 22nd. Pipko is a former model, a 2016 Trump campaign staffer, and author of the book, “Finding My Place: Making My Parents' American Dream Come True.” 4:30pm- If you could give former President Donald Trump one piece of advice prior to next week's presidential debate, what would it be? Listeners react—explaining that Trump should focus on the economy and foreign policy (not personal insults). Others say Trump should avoid becoming entangled in claims that the 2020 election was stolen from him. Above all, most listeners agree that Trump must remain positive and optimistic by highlighting his record as president. 5:05pm- Former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi and Election Attorney Linda Kerns join The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss their tireless efforts to protect the integrity of the 2024 election.

Or let me at least put it this way: I think those who look at the calendar, look at the negative reaction in much of the country to Alvin Bragg's patently politicized prosecution of [Donald] Trump, and pronounce lawfare at an end are overconfident.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/have-we-seen-the-last-of-the-trump-trials/ 5:40pm- On Thursday, New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed the SAFE for Kids Act arguing that “our kids are worth fighting for.” But does this new legislation give the state's Attorney General far too much regulatory power over social media?

Now, he is preparing supporters for the possibility that Mr. Biden clears it.” You can read the full article here: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/19/us/politics/trump-biden-debate-expectations.html 6:15pm- During a CNN panel discussion, host Dana Bash suggested she is hesitant to play videos of Joe Biden for fear that snippets of the content will be used to portray the president as old and feeble. Earlier this week, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre baselessly claimed that Republicans were using “cheap fakes” to make President Biden look bad.

Amazon MGM Studios confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that a sequel to the 1980s comedy is in early development with Gad not only on board to produce, but star in as well.” You can read the full story here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/spaceballs-2-is-happening-with-mel-brooks-producing

Welcome to “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered”! In this episode, we dive into the latest updates on Donald Trump's classified documents case and the controversial FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago. We reveal explosive new filings showing the FBI's authorization of deadly force, including staged photos and a potential confrontation with the Secret Service. The episode explores the political persecution of Trump, with 91 indictments raising questions even among average Americans. We discuss the severe economic downturn, which has families relying on savings, credit cards, and payday loans to afford groceries in 2024. Fast food prices at McDonald's and Taco Bell have risen by well over 100% due to rising fuel costs, supply chain issues, and government fiscal policies. Both political parties have contributed to this economic crisis that is affecting all Americans. Additionally, Google and Meta are opposing two New York bills aimed at protecting children from social media addiction. The Stop Addictive Feeds Exploitation for Kids Act and the New York Child Data Protection Act aim to limit social media companies' use of addictive feeds and protect minors' personal data. Despite nearly $1 million spent lobbying against these bills, parents must recognize the dangers these platforms pose and protect their children. We also discuss how industries often scapegoat individuals to appease public outrage, drawing parallels between Harvey Weinstein's case and the current situation with Sean "Diddy" Combs. Despite the portrayal of Combs as the sole bad actor, many others have been complicit in perpetuating misconduct.
