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.

Join the Conversation at 303-477-5600 or text to 307-200-8222 Monday - Friday from 3 pm - 6 pm MT. HOUR 1 Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with urgency and doesn't let up. John Rush and Andy Peth dive into a Rhode Island shooting that John argues hasn't been fully scrutinized—and ask why certain details seem to vanish from the national conversation. From there, the discussion expands into mental health, accountability, and whether ideology is replacing honest diagnosis in moments of crisis. A key turning point comes with listener calls that raise uncomfortable but timely questions: What happens when courts, insurance companies, and malpractice risk start driving decisions faster than politics? Could lawsuits—and not legislation—be the real force that changes the system? And why do parents and students feel pressured into silence in schools when they disagree? The hour also pivots to real-world danger closer to home, as deadly wind-driven accidents on Colorado highways highlight how denial of weather, risk, or reality—can turn tragic fast. By the end of the hour, John challenges listeners on both sides of the aisle: are we willing to confront hard truths, or will we keep blaming tools instead of addressing the people and systems failing in plain sight? HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush To Reason zeroes in on power, accountability, and who really controls the system. John Rush and Andy Peth are joined by Mark Mix of the National Right to Work Committee (https://nrtwc.org/), who breaks down why Virginia's move to expand public-sector union power could have sweeping consequences nationwide. From rising taxpayer costs to unions acting as unelected power brokers, Mark explains why government unions are fundamentally different from private ones—and why voters often have no real leverage. The hour then pivots to election integrity as Priscilla Rahn joins the conversation to walk listeners through the SAVE Act. She tackles claims that voter ID laws suppress women and minorities, explains what the bill actually requires, and argues that restoring trust—not restricting access—is the real goal. The discussion widens to messaging failures, young voter confusion, and why fear-based narratives may be driving people away from the ballot box altogether. If confidence in elections is broken, can participation survive—and who benefits when voters stay home? Guest Timestamps * Mark Mix (National Right to Work Committee) — 1:10 * Priscilla Rahn (KLTT Radio Host) — 44:40 HOUR 3 Hour 3 of Rush To Reason opens with a sharp clash over gun rights, mental illness, and constitutional limits, as John Rush and Andy Peth respond to listener pushback and challenge what they see as selective logic on public safety and freedom. From there, the hour pivots into a bold defense of the two-party system, arguing that fragmentation and “purity politics” weaken conservatives while collectivists consolidate power. Drawing on examples from Europe, Israel, and Colorado, John explains why fewer choices can actually protect individual liberty. The conversation then shifts to Colorado legislation that could legalize prostitution statewide, sparking an unusually nuanced debate. John and Andy weigh personal liberty against cultural fallout, marriage stability, addiction, public health, and how law-enforcement resources are really being used. A call from Andrew in Greeley adds another layer—raising questions about taxpayer responsibility and unintended consequences. Are conservatives fighting this issue with the wrong arguments? And when one side controls every lever of power, does the debate even matter anymore?

Last year was a tumultuous one for labor law. Not only was the National Labor Relations Board stalled by the firing of then-Member Gwynne Wilcox, but the Board itself came under fire in lawsuits challenging its current structure. Perceiving a gap, lawmakers in California and New York stepped in, authorizing local agencies to take up much of the Board’s work. Those laws, however, have each been blocked by federal district courts. In separate decisions, these courts found federal law preempted the state laws, despite the Board’s tribulations.Were those decisions right? Will they hold? And if they do, what do they mean for the future of federal–state relations? Join our panel as they look forward to the next chapter of American labor law.Featuring:Prof. Benjamin I. Sachs, Kestnbaum Professor of Labor and Industry, Harvard Law SchoolAaron B. Solem, Staff Attorney, National Right to Work Foundation(Moderator) Alexander T.

Two state laws could transform labor relations in the United States. In both California and Massachusetts, statutes now allow rideshare drivers to organize at the sectoral level: one union could represent all drivers in each state. Both represent a bold experiment—one that departs from the way labor relations has been regulated for more than a century. And each could produce the biggest spike in unionization in decades. But will they work? Will drivers actually organize? And if they do, will the result bump up against federal law? Our expert panel will break down the historical, legal, and policy implications of these bold new laws.Featuring:David Madland, Senior Fellow & Senior Adviser, American Worker Project, Center for American ProgressWilliam L. Messenger, Vice President & Legal Director, National Right to Work Legal Defense and Education Foundation, Inc.(Moderator) Alexander T.

Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com opens with John Rush taking on one of the most misunderstood concepts in America today: free speech. What does it actually protect—and where does it stop? Using real-world examples from churches, workplaces, schools, stadiums, airlines, and even the NFL, John breaks down the critical difference between public spaces and private property, challenging assumptions on both the left and the right. The discussion intensifies with calls from listeners highlighting school censorship and workplace double standards, raising tough questions about when speech is being silenced—and when rules are simply being enforced. John then pivots sharply into Colorado GOP politics, alleging serious digital misconduct by former party leadership and warning about the dangers of poor oversight, technical ignorance, and unchecked power. Who's accountable when records disappear? And how much damage can one person do on the way out the door? This hour is blunt, confrontational, and packed with uncomfortable truths—about rights, responsibility, and why misunderstanding civics has consequences far beyond social media outrage. HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush To Reason dives headfirst into economics, the Federal Reserve, NFL playoff drama, and a high-profile car review. John Rush is joined by Mitch Francis, founder of Francis Development Inc. (https://Bad-AssSolutions.com), for a blunt breakdown of why the Fed's interest-rate strategy may be hurting Main Street more than helping inflation. Why do unelected officials wield so much power—and why does the cost always land on consumers and small businesses? The hour then shifts into NFL playoff chaos, as John and Richard Rush analyze the Broncos' emotional win, controversial calls, and the sudden loss of Bo Nix. Can backup Jarrett Stidham rise to the moment, and is Denver actually ahead of schedule? The hour closes with a detailed car review of the 2026 Lexus TX 550h Plug-In Hybrid. From monetary policy to playoff pressure to plug-in hybrids, this hour asks one big question: who's really prepared for what comes next?

John is joined by Mark Mix, president of National Right to Work (https://www.nrtw.org/), who breaks down Colorado legislation that could force workers to pay union dues without a vote. Is this about representation—or political power funded by workers who may not agree with it? The hour then pivots sharply to planned power outages, lawsuits, and accountability, as John dismantles the City of Golden's claims and explains why Xcel Energy is prioritizing liability protection after the Marshall Fire settlement. Listeners weigh in with legal and real-world insight, exposing how Colorado's liability standards, regulatory politics, and court venues are shaping utility behavior statewide. The takeaway is blunt: outages aren't a fluke—they're the future.

Timestamps * Mitch Francis, Founder – Francis Development Inc. - 1:11 * Richard Rush, NFL - 26:47 * Car Review: 2026 Lexus TX 550h Plug-In Hybrid- 42:27 HOUR 3 Hour 3 of Rush To Reason is fast-paced and unapologetic, opening with John Rush in a deep dive on worker freedom and union power. John is joined by Mark Mix, president of National Right to Work (https://www.nrtw.org/), who breaks down Colorado legislation that could force workers to pay union dues without a vote. Is this about representation—or political power funded by workers who may not agree with it? The hour then pivots sharply to planned power outages, lawsuits, and accountability, as John dismantles the City of Golden's claims and explains why Xcel Energy is prioritizing liability protection after the Marshall Fire settlement. Listeners weigh in with legal and real-world insight, exposing how Colorado's liability standards, regulatory politics, and court venues are shaping utility behavior statewide. The takeaway is blunt: outages aren't a fluke—they're the future. From elections to energy policy to personal preparedness, this hour challenges listeners to ask a hard question: if the system won't protect you, are you ready to protect yourself?

Steve Gruber sits down with Mark Mix, President of the National Right to Work Committee and the National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation, to discuss a bold new legislative push to protect independent-minded workers from unwanted union control. Sen. Bill Cassidy's Worker RESULTS Act aims to restore workplace democracy by mandating secret-ballot union elections, banning coercive “card check” organizing, and cutting back on union bosses' ability to block workers from voting out ineffective representation. Mark explains how this proposal stands in stark contrast to other plans, like Sen. Josh Hawley's “Faster Labor Contracts Act,” which could impose forced arbitration and strip workers of their rights. This conversation highlights the fight to defend worker freedom and choice in the workplace.

In 2019, the Canadian government recognized housing as a fundamental human right through the National Housing Strategy Act; however, in the years that have followed, housing affordability has only worsened for low- to moderate-income households. While this Act requires the federal government to address homelessness and core housing need, Canadian housing policies continue to benefit primarily those seeking profit and returns on investment. In this second episode, host Sarah Rowe is joined by lawyer Michèle Biss, Executive Director of the National Right to Housing Network, and political economist Ricardo Tranjan, senior researcher with the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives. Together, they discuss the impact of financialization and the importance of implementing both social housing and rent controls to ensure that our housing system protects the most vulnerable.   Guest Michèle Biss, Executive Director, National Right to Housing Network Ricardo Tranjan, Ph.D., Senior Researcher, Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives Host Sarah Rowe, Legal Counsel, Canadian Institute for the Administration of Justice (CIAJ)   SERIES OVERVIEW Left Out in the Cold A podcast series from CIAJ's In All Fairness channel Over the past several years, housing has emerged as a hot-button issue in Canadian discourse.

Left Out in the Cold aims to answer these and other questions over the course of this series. Hosted by Sarah Rowe, Legal Counsel at CIAJ, this series features conversations with legal and policy experts and community advocates on issues facing the Canadian housing sector. Each episode balances conversations about high-level legislative frameworks with the on-the-ground realities of everyday Canadians.

John Rush kicks off Rush to Reason with a fiery take on faith and outrage, questioning why so many Christians overreacted to a simple, compassionate moment between Vice President JD Vance and Erica Kirk. Is this a sign of moral decay—or just misplaced judgment? Then, financial expert David Stryzewski of Sound Planning Group (https://myspg.com/) joins the show to unpack the realities behind America's economy, from the government shutdown to inflation and jobs. Are we really in crisis—or is the media fueling fear for political gain? Together, they challenge listeners to think critically about faith, finance, and common sense in today's culture. HOUR 2 In this gripping hour of Rush to Reason, John Rush takes listeners from the rise of government control to the drama of the playing field. With guest Ammon Blair of the Texas Public Policy Foundation (https://www.texaspolicy.com), he exposes how programs like SNAP and EBT have transformed from safety nets into tools of dependency and control. Have Americans traded self-reliance for comfort—and freedom for convenience? As callers weigh in, the conversation widens to New York's Marxist politics, before pivoting to sports, where John and Richard Rush tackle the future of Major League Baseball, Broncos football, and Deion Sanders' Colorado Buffaloes. Will baseball face reform? Can Denver turn narrow wins into a comeback season? And is Coach Prime's bold vision already on the line? This hour delivers high-stakes questions, cultural insight, and the kind of truth-telling that keeps listeners thinking long after the mic goes silent. HOUR 3 In this powerful hour of Rush to Reason, John Rush dives into the crossroads of AI, politics, and personal responsibility. What happens when technology becomes too powerful—and too political? Guest Brendan Steinhauser from the Alliance for Secure AI (https://secureainow.org) warns of China's race to dominate artificial intelligence and the dangers of losing control over the very tools shaping humanity's future. Then, Mark Mix of the National Right to Work Committee exposes how unions and politics intertwine to manipulate workers and elections. As the hour unfolds, John tackles America's growing dependency crisis, asking why 4 out of 10 citizens rely on government aid. Have we forgotten the dignity of work? Are we trading freedom for comfort? From global tech threats to national work ethic, this episode confronts the biggest question of all—can America stay free in a world that rewards dependence?

UNIONS OPERATE LIKE THE MOB WHEN YOU TRY TO LEAVE Once you're in, you're NEVER supposed to be out. From a press release I got a week ago:Two King Soopers grocery workers have filed federal charges against the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 7 union in response to union officials illegally threatening to fine the workers, who chose to exercise their right to work during a strike. These cases, filed with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), follow a series of similar charges against UFCW union officials for issuing retaliatory fines against King Soopers employees in 2022. Both employees are receiving free legal aid from National Right to Work Legal Defense Foundation staff attorneys.According to the charges, Local 7 union bosses illegally retaliated against Ryan Lamb and Lucas Martin by assessing presumptive fines and scheduling “trials” for each of them, despite the union having no authority to punish non-members. The charges note that attempts to discipline the workers for post-resignation conduct violate the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).I've got Patrick Semmens from the National Right To Work organization at 1pm to talk about this.
