Granville Supreme Court case established that fit parents have a fundamental 14th Amendment right to make decisions regarding the care and custody of their children. The ruling struck down an overly broad Washington state law that allowed any person to sue for visitation, asserting that the government cannot override a fit parent's choices just because a judge believes a different arrangement would be "better". While frequently cited by parental rights advocates to support autonomy and equal time, the case specifically addressed disputes between parents and third parties, such as grandparents, rather than conflicts between two fit parents.

Parental Rights Advocate Alexandra Bougher makes her debut on the morning show with Sid to talk about parental rights amid recent news involving vaccines, transgender-related violence, and parents criticizing social media companies. She argues parents must be more engaged but says schools are also driving problems, citing COVID-era masking battles and alleging New Jersey schools have sexually explicit books and materials accessible to children; she describes opposing a “Freedom to Read” bill she says would protect teachers from repercussions for exposing kids to inappropriate content. The conversation also touches on Epstein-related justice and reports of a Prince Andrew arrest, concerns about boys in girls' bathrooms and sports, and medical freedom, with Bougher calling for transparency about vaccine side effects and describing vaccine mandates as coercive, while the host recounts being forced to comply with COVID rules and criticizes the safety of COVID and childhood vaccines.

Brittany Vessely, executive director of Colorado Catholic Conference comments on the Orwellian-named 'Legal Protections for Dignity of Minors' bill (SB26-018) which states parents who refuse to affirm the gender identity of their child may have that factor into custody judgments made by a court.

Today's episode kicks off with election integrity special guest Mark Cook. He's an election and cyber-security expert, dropping hard evidence on Dominion Voting Systems. From hidden web servers and proof-of-concept demos showing vulnerabilities. Byrne's latest fire: unsealed grand jury evidence on Smartmatic, compromised hardware from China, a Taiwan switcheroo, and ties to Venezuela/Cuba that could blow open decertification of entire systems. If this holds, it's game-changing proof the machines aren't secure.We shift to the raw outrage from Colorado parents fighting back against a system that seems hell-bent on protecting predators instead of kids. Erin for Parental Rights out here in Commie land Colorado confronted lawmakers after seven Democrats voted no on tougher penalties for child sex traffickers and then refused to let voters decide via ballot measure. Add in the fresh bomb: Colorado Democrats just introduced a bill to decriminalize prostitution statewide, repealing crimes like soliciting and patronizing while preempting local laws. This isn't protection, it's a dangerous slide that puts vulnerable people at risk, and parents are done staying silent.This show pulls no punches real parents confronting spineless politicians, fresh legislation that reeks of misplaced priorities, and deep dives into voting tech corruption. Mark Cook brings receipts, Joe brings the heat, and we're asking the questions the establishment dodges. Tune in for truth that hits hard and the call to action Colorado families need right now.

On this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts U-Ark Prof. Albert Cheng and Alisha Searcy of the Center for Strong Public Schools speak with David Hodges, a school choice attorney with the Institute for Justice, and Ariella Hellman, director of government affairs for Agudath Israel of New England. Together, they discuss the U.S. First Circuit case Hellman v. Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, exploring how Hodges and the IJ team are shaping legal arguments around private school choice and religious liberty. They also explore how Hellman's personal journey as a mother, lawyer, and advocate highlights the real-world stakes of centuries-old anti-aid laws. From the influence of U.S. Supreme Court rulings like Trinity Lutheran, Espinoza, and Carson, to the ongoing negative impact of Massachusetts' 1850s Know-Nothing Amendment, Hodges and Hellman explain how a positive ruling could expand educational access and opportunities for families of faith across the Bay State. They talk about their experience working together on this U.S. Circuit case, exploring some of the challenges within the Massachusetts legal process. In closing, Hodges and Hellman offer an inside look at the legal battles and personal determination necessary to shape the future of education law in the Bay State and across the U.S.

A new study reveals acceptance for gay behavior is dropping at big levels, and the HRC is losing corporations at a record fast pace, no longer willing to be bullied. So why are public schools, such as Seattle, pushing the LGBTQ ideology on kids as young as 5 and not allowing opt-outs? Even after a big SCOTUS case, they doubled down! Kate Anderson, Senior Counsel and Director of the Center for Parental Rights with ADF, joins us to explain ways parents can push back.

Reed discusses her firsthand experiences inside the medical system, the recent legal case involving a detransitioner, and why medical recommendations for gender-related surgeries and treatments for minors are beginning to shift. The conversation explores the ethical implications of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and irreversible surgeries, as well as the long-term risks for both children and adults.

Tusla is opposing a proposed new law that would remove parental rights from people who kill their partner, arguing that a child's best interests may still be served by maintaining a connection with their birth parents, even if the parent who remains is responsible for the death of the other.Internal emails show that the agency was disappointed that the Department of Justice ignored its objections to Valerie's Law, which would remove automatic guardianship rights from those convicted and in some cases suspected of killing the other parent of their child.Valerie's law is named after, of course, Valerie French, and her brother David spoke to Anton this morning.

On the first day of 2026, Raising Godly Girls Podcast hosts Natalie Ambrose and Melissa Bearden officially launch Season 3 with a quick recap of Season 2 topic highlights, including Loneliness and Isolation, the Camp Experience, Honoring Differently-Abled Girls, Loving Without Compromise, Parental Rights, Cancel Culture, Intergenerational Ministry, and Biblical Femininity.     In an insightful part of the conversation, Natalie shares some special highlights from the 2025 AHG 30th Anniversary Convention Raising Godly Girls booth—a corner titled, "I Wish My Mom Knew…" where girls were invited to share their deepest desires with their moms. Some notes echoed of thriving relationships between mother and daughter, and others offered gentle challenge as daughters cried out to be understood, for mothers to pause and relax, and invitations to grow through flaws together as they reflect the Lord in their homes.     Melissa lands the conversation with a positive confidence in our Faithful God to lead us in the coming year, a yearning for Christian parents to really connect with their girls, and a reminder that today matters in eternity—so let's make it count!       Scriptures Referenced in this Episode:    1 John 2:25        Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.      To find or start an American Heritage Girls Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

She talks with us about links between the parental rights movement and the push to privatize education in Alberta.

In this episode, Tudor sits down with former teacher and education advocate Erika Sanzi to unpack the growing concerns inside America’s public school system. They examine the expanding influence of teachers’ unions like the NEA, the shift from academic achievement to political priorities, and the rise of ideological activism in classrooms and teacher training programs. Sanzi shares firsthand insights on declining student performance, what parents and educators are up against, and why restoring balance in education is critical to putting students back at the center of learning.
