In the early morning hours of January 3rd, U.S. military, in an impressively covert operation, captured Venezuela's self-declared president Nicolas Maduro, and his wife and spirited them away to face narco-terrorism charges in a New York courtroom. In the immediate aftermath, Venezuelans cheered in the streets, celebrating the demise of Maduro's Marxist regime, one that had decimated their economy and led to huge numbers of Venezuelans fleeing the country since 2013. Leftist groups in the U.S., such as the ANSWER Coalition, The People's Forum, Code Pink, and the Chicago Teachers Union, also organized quickly, gathering crowds for protests in prominent American cities, leaving observers wondering just how they were able to mobilize so fast. Here to discuss what happened on Jan 3, what the future looks like now for Venezuela and her relationship with the U.S., and to answer questions about the organizations behind the protests, is our friend Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow for national security and foreign policy at the Heritage Foundation.Mike GonzalezHow the Smithsonian lost its way Trump's reforms are essentialTrump Announces U.S. Military's Capture of MaduroANSWER CoalitionCode Pink (CODEPINK)The Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL)The People's Forum

It's Monday, August 4th, 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 Cuban pastor harassed Cuban pastor Maikel Velázquez vanished about 14 hours after delivering epilepsy medication to a friend's granddaughter on July 9th in the island country, reports International Christian Concern. Velázquez delivered the medicine to the granddaughter of Marta Benites, whose sons were imprisoned for participating in a peaceful protest in July 2021 in San José de las Lajas, Mayabeque. Immediately after the delivery, Velázquez was abruptly barred from entering the Benites home. Moments after completing a phone call with another pastor, he disappeared. His phone was instantly switched off, severing all contact. Pastors from the Alliance of Christians of Cuba launched a search for Velázquez, combing hospitals, detention centers, and police stations — yet their efforts yielded no clue to his whereabouts. At around 2:00 a.m. on July 10th, Velázquez was discovered outside his home, clearly shaken after enduring a traumatic interrogation and serious threats. When questioned, he would not disclose details of the incident and behaved erratically, sometimes yelling and at other times falling eerily silent. Pastor Velázquez's abduction is only the most recent in a string of alarming cases of pastoral harassment in Cuba. In John 15:18, Jesus said, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” According to Open Doors, Cuba is the 26th most dangerous country worldwide for Christians. Corporation for Public Broadcasting is shutting down The Corporation for Public Broadcasting announced it is shutting down, reports American Family Radio. Congress created it in 1967 with the Public Broadcasting Act in order to promote educational and cultural programming that was not being done by the three broadcast networks. With a current half-billion dollar annual budget, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is now most known for overseeing liberal news outlet National Public Radio and the liberal network PBS. Back in May, President Trump signed an executive order to stop taxpayer funded biased media. Republican-hating NPR sued to challenge that order and told the court any decision to cut off funding must come from Congress. With that challenge in the courts, the White House sent a rescissions package to Congress in late May. The GOP-led House passed the measure 214-212. In the U.S. Senate, Vice President J.D. Vance cast the tie vote for passage. Heritage Foundation senior fellow Mike Gonzalez said a nation that is $36 trillion in debt should not be paying for news coverage that tells half the country to "get lost" because of its political beliefs. HR15 enables perversion and abortion for public school minors Liberty Counsel took a case to the U.S. Supreme Court to ensure that parents are allowed to opt their children out of homosexual and transgender indoctrination in public schools. However, if House Resolution 15 passes, it will open the floodgates and will force parents, counselors, and teachers to celebrate this destructive behavior. This bill has been introduced in both the current U.S. House and Senate. HR 15 — the misnamed “Equality Act” — will be a nightmare for everyone, warns Liberty Counsel Action. Every Democrat has signed on to the bill. And some Republicans voted for a prior version of HR 15. The margins are slim, and we could lose this battle if we remain silent. The battle in Congress will be fierce, but we must stop this bill for four reasons. First, if the child becomes confused by the propaganda at public schools — mandated by HR 15 — to think a person can choose their sex like they choose clothes, there will be no one to help them learn the truth. The child can demand hormone-blocking drugs (stopping puberty), opposite-sex hormones, and even surgery to remove healthy body parts. Parents will have no say, nor will the hospitals, health care providers, or pharmacists. Insurance and taxpayer funds will cover the expense. If the parents object, this will be considered child abuse, and the child could be removed from the home. Second, if someone pressures a young girl to get an abortion, she will have no one to protect her from this life-and-death decision. The so-called Equality Act will make abortion a federal right through all nine months. It will pre-empt every state law — including parental notification or consent and informed consent. The parents will have no say, nor will the hospitals, health care workers, or pharmacists. Insurance companies cannot refuse coverage, and our taxes will fund the killing of innocent life. If parents, health care providers, or pharmacists resist the abortion, they can be sued by the U.S. Department of Justice, private individuals, and organizations — including Planned Parenthood. Third, if the child asks the parents for help to overcome unwanted homosexual attractions, behaviors, or gender confusion, there will be no one to help. The so-called Equality Act will make it illegal to provide any such counsel to help overcome these unwanted attractions, behaviors, or confusion. In fact, this bill makes such counsel illegal for all ages and for any counsel — licensed and unlicensed — and this includes pastoral counseling. Fourth, this dangerous bill will require Christian adoption and foster care ministries to place children in homosexual and transgender homes. And remember, the “Q” in LGBTQ encompasses nearly 550 paraphilias — which includes pedophilia! There will be no one to help these innocent children! 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.” Send faxes to Congress to stop the so-called Equality Act from endangering public school kids. We have the special link for you in the transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Remember, some Republicans voted for a prior version of HR 15. The margins are slim, and we could lose this battle if we remain silent. White House Ballroom to add 90,000 square feet and cost $200 million And finally, the White House is about to get a major physical upgrade – a new ballroom. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made the announcement. LEAVITT: “We are proud to announce that the construction of the new White House ballroom will begin. For 150 years, presidents, administrations and White House staff have longed for a large event space on the White House complex that can hold substantially more guests than currently allowed. President Trump has expressed his commitment to solving this problem on behalf of future administrations and the American people. “The White House is currently unable to host major functions, honoring world leaders and other countries, without having to install a large and unsightly tent approximately 100 yards away from the main building's entrance. “The White House State ballroom will be a much needed and exquisite addition of approximately 90,000 total square feet of carefully crafted space, with a seated capacity of 650 people, which is a significant increase from the 200-person seated capacity in the East Room of the White House.” Leavitt revealed the price tag and that it would not be paid for with tax dollars. LEAVITT: “President Trump and other donors have generously committed to donating the funds necessary to build this approximately $200 million structure.” White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles said, “President Trump is a builder at heart and has an extraordinary eye for detail.” … He is “fully committed to working with the appropriate organizations to preserving the special history of the White House.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, August 4th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

Steve Gruber talks with Mike Gonzalez, Senior Fellow at the Heritage Foundation, about the troubling silence from New York City socialist mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani following reports that a Border Patrol officer was allegedly shot by an illegal immigrant in the city. Gonzalez argues that Mamdani's silence speaks volumes and reflects the kind of leadership New York Democrats have come to expect, and, in many ways, deserve. It's a sharp, no-holds-barred discussion on the consequences of soft-on-crime, open-border policies and the radical politics shaping America's biggest cities.

While not a professional golfer himself, Barrow has arguably delivered more iconic moments to golf fans than anyone behind a camera—and his stories are as entertaining as the broadcasts he helped shape.Hosts Bruce Devlin and Mike Gonzalez set the stage with Barrow's roots in Fort Worth, Texas, where a childhood spent around the dairy farm and local courses like Diamond Oaks and Colonial Country Club sparked a lifelong passion for sports.

His stories shine a light on the people and values that shaped modern sports coverage—and his reflections on growing up in small-town Texas during the golden age of Friday night football are pure Americana.This episode is more than just a look behind the scenes—it's a celebration of storytelling, mentorship, and the enduring spirit of the game.
