In this heartfelt episode of Right to Life Radio, John Gerardi and sidewalk advocate Linda Teliha share inspiring Stories from the Sidewalk. Linda recounts one mother's incredible journey from abortion-minded crisis, through addiction and recovery, to full custody of her children and a fresh start in life.

In today’s deep dive, the University of Illinois will soon offer abortion services through a partnership with Planned Parenthood.
Congress created Medicaid in 1965 to subsidize state healthcare system for people unable to afford healthcare. South Carolina has a law the prohibits public funds being used for abortion. For this reason, South Carolina disqualified Planned Parenthood from participating in the state's Medicaid system. It should be no surprise that Planned Parenthood South Atlantic sued. The Supreme Court's decision may surprise you.
In this episode of Right to Life Radio, John Gerardi and Jonathan Keller dive deep into the growing impact of the abortion pill, Mifepristone, on abortion rates in the U.S. They discuss the Trump administration's response (or lack thereof), new data on the pill's safety concerns, and the political chess game unfolding between pro-life senators, the FDA, and the Department of Justice.

But, no need to fear – we're leaving y'all with some extra brain juice to keep you company while we're offline. We're dropping an ENCORE POD EPISODE of when we collabed with the iconic “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy and Jess Pieklo IN DC and broke down SCOTUS' Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic arguments back in April. It went a little something like this… ATTENTION BUZZKILLAHSSSSS! WE DID A LIVE THING – in DC! Yep. Your “Feminist Buzzkills” joined forces with the “Boom! Lawyered” pod for an epic live show! After getting word that SCOTUS was hearing a case that could result in eliminating any healthcare provider from Medicaid payments if they provide abortion, we geared up for battle for one super-sized show with the amazing “Boom! Lawyered” hosts Imani Gandy (Rewire Editor-at-Large) and Jess Pieklo (Rewire Senior Vice President, Executive Editor.) We break down what this case means, and fill you in on all the outrageous tricks clown lawmakers across the country are playing trying to destroy access to reproductive care. It was a packed show full of rage and shenanigans and the DC crowd LOVED IT! This episode unpacks the arguments in Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that could upend Medicaid beneficiaries ability to enforce their rights under the public benefit program all because conservatives hate abortion. We get into the history of efforts to kick Planned Parenthood out of the Medicaid program, the bad faith arguments made by conservatives to the Court as they try to do so again, and how a bad decision in the case could impact way more than access to abortion. Recorded LIVE at the Black Cat in DC, we gotta give a huge shout out and special thanks to the Black Cat crew for making the space for our loud asses AND for everyone who showed up!

What's interesting is that violent crime is WAY down in places like Chicago and Baltimore. Not great, but still way down. I was 100% in favor of troops to clean up DC because it's our nation's capital and I think that matters, plus Trump had the authority to take action there. He does not have the same authority in other cities, but he seems to be pushing to put the National Guard there anyway.
This Day in Legal History: Nineteenth Amendment CertifiedOn this day in legal history, August 26, 1920, the Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution was formally certified by Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby, granting women the right to vote nationwide. The certification marked the culmination of a nearly century-long struggle led by suffragists like Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, and later Alice Paul and Ida B. Wells, who fought for political inclusion through protests, civil disobedience, and persistent lobbying. The amendment's ratification by Tennessee—by a single vote—on August 18, 1920, provided the necessary 36th state approval to satisfy constitutional requirements.The Nineteenth Amendment's language is deceptively simple: “The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged... on account of sex.” But its legal impact was profound, constitutionally guaranteeing the franchise to half the population that had long been excluded. The certification did not end all voting discrimination—many women of color, particularly Black and Native American women, continued to face racist barriers to the ballot—but it was a foundational legal step toward gender equality in civic life.August 26 is now recognized as Women's Equality Day, established by Congress in 1971, to honor the legal and political significance of the Nineteenth Amendment and to commemorate the broader fight for women's rights. The legal principle enshrined in the amendment echoes in later equality jurisprudence, forming part of the constitutional backdrop to cases involving gender discrimination under the Equal Protection Clause.The Nineteenth Amendment also represented a rare moment when a constitutional change directly expanded democratic participation, in contrast to more procedural or structural amendments. It altered not just who could vote, but how lawmakers and courts would later consider the role of gender in public policy and civil rights. The amendment continues to serve as a legal and symbolic foundation for subsequent laws and cases advancing gender equity, including Title IX and the push for the Equal Rights Amendment.On August 26, the legal history of suffrage becomes not only a story of amendment certification, but of constitutional transformation through organized legal and political struggle.U.S. Senator Ron Wyden has called on Chief Justice John Roberts to initiate an independent investigation into the federal judiciary's cybersecurity practices, following a significant breach of the court system's electronic case management system. In a letter, Wyden urged Roberts to involve the National Academy of Sciences in reviewing both the recent and previous hacks—highlighting that foreign actors, possibly including Russia, exploited the same vulnerabilities in both incidents.Wyden criticized the system as outdated, insecure, and costly, noting this was the second major breach since 2020. He emphasized that sensitive data, including information on confidential informants and sealed case files, may have been compromised. The judiciary's handling of cybersecurity, Wyden argued, has repeatedly failed to meet the standards expected of institutions entrusted with highly sensitive information.The senator pointed out that despite years of warnings and expert recommendations, the judiciary has lagged in updating its technology. U.S. Circuit Judge Michael Scudder recently admitted in testimony that the case management system is obsolete and needs replacement. Wyden also noted that while executive branch agencies have been using multi-factor authentication since 2015, the judiciary will not implement it until the end of 2025.Wyden has long advocated for transparency and modernization in the court system, including efforts to make the PACER database free. His latest request underscores growing bipartisan concern over national security implications tied to the federal courts' digital infrastructure.US senator calls for independent review of federal judiciary cybersecurity | ReutersA federal judge has ruled that the Trump administration can move forward with a provision in its recent spending bill that bars Medicaid funding from going to abortion providers in Maine. The ruling, by U.S. District Judge Lance Walker—a Trump appointee—rejected a request by Maine Family Planning to block the provision, part of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act passed by Congress in July. The organization argued the law unfairly targeted them and violated their constitutional rights, but the judge declined to intervene, emphasizing the law was a product of the democratic process.Walker acknowledged that the policy might be unwise but stressed it is not the judiciary's role to override legislative choices based on policy disagreements. Maine Family Planning, the state's largest reproductive healthcare provider, warned that the ruling could force clinic closures and reductions in care, impacting around 8,000 patients annually.The case is one of two major legal challenges to the law. A separate federal judge in Boston has temporarily blocked the same provision as it applies to Planned Parenthood nationwide, and that ruling is under appeal. The Maine case focused on how the law would impact two of the state's main abortion providers and argued it violated equal protection rights under the Fifth Amendment by singling them out.Judge Walker, however, found that Congress has the authority to direct federal funds in ways consistent with its policy goals, including discouraging abortion—a procedure that is no longer protected as a constitutional right following the Supreme Court's 2022 ruling overturning Roe v. Wade.Trump administration can withhold Medicaid funding from Maine abortion providers, judge rules | ReutersPresident Donald Trump has moved to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, alleging she made false statements on mortgage applications—an accusation she denies. The unprecedented move, announced via Truth Social, sent financial markets into a brief stir, with long-term Treasury yields rising and the dollar dipping, reflecting concerns over the Fed's independence. Cook, appointed by President Biden and confirmed in 2022, has vowed not to resign and plans legal action, arguing that Trump lacks authority to remove her without proper cause.Trump claims Cook's conduct shows “gross negligence” and undermines trust in the Fed. However, under the Federal Reserve Act, governors can only be removed “for cause,” a standard historically interpreted to mean inefficiency, neglect of duty, or misconduct while in office. Cook's alleged mortgage misstatements predate her time at the Fed, making the legal grounds for removal murky.This attempt follows months of Trump's public attacks on the Fed for keeping interest rates high. If successful, it would allow him to reshape the board with dovish policymakers more favorable to rate cuts. Critics, including Senator Elizabeth Warren and legal scholars, denounced the move as a political power grab and a threat to central bank independence.The Department of Justice may investigate Cook following a criminal referral, but no charges have been filed. Legal experts suggest the case could test the Supreme Court's recent statements on limits to presidential power over independent agencies. Meanwhile, Cook has reiterated her commitment to her role and refuses to step down amid what she calls political bullying.Trump Moves to Fire Fed's Cook, Setting Up Historic Legal FightAnd in my column this week, a story out of Utah. A small town in Utah, Wellington, is facing public backlash after proposing a 225% property tax hike—a dramatic response to years of avoiding smaller, routine tax increases. This financial crisis wasn't caused by a single year of overspending but rather by elected officials deferring necessary tax adjustments since 2017, despite rising costs for services and infrastructure. While avoiding tax hikes may have seemed politically savvy, it left the town with a nearly $400,000 budget shortfall that now demands a painful correction.The Wellington situation illustrates a broader problem: local governments often delay modest increases to avoid political consequences, only to face greater fiscal challenges later. Holding tax rates flat may feel like good governance, but it allows infrastructure to decay and expenses to balloon. By the time officials act, the required adjustment feels extreme to residents who weren't prepared for it.The solution, according to my piece, lies in normalizing small, predictable tax increases. This would help cities keep pace with inflation and infrastructure needs, without shocking taxpayers. One of my proposed reforms is land value taxation, which taxes land rather than improvements on it—encouraging development without penalizing property upgrades and offering greater economic stability.To depoliticize the process, cities could establish independent, bipartisan bodies to manage long-term tax planning. This shift from reactive crisis management to proactive fiscal planning could help avoid sudden, disruptive tax spikes like Wellington's. The underlying message: the longer tax adjustments are postponed, the more painful and politically damaging they become.Utah Town's 225% Property Tax Spike Is Lesson on Fiscal Realism This is a public episode.

In this episode, I sit down with Gabriella, a dynamic leader who's been on a journey of transformation in both her personal and professional life. We dive into the lessons she's learned along the way about vulnerability, leadership, and rediscovering herself after becoming a mother. This episode is all about embracing imperfections and understanding that true leadership is not about presenting a polished version of yourself but being authentic and real.About Gabriella MonteAs Vice President of Hotel and Retail Operations at The Village Dallas, Gabriella Monte leads with vision, passion, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

Gabriella is a beacon of modern leadership, showing how women can break barriers, lead with purpose, and drive lasting impact in both industry and community.Gabriella's Intentional JourneyWe start by discussing Gabriella's journey of intentionality. Gabriella shares how, prior to becoming a mother, she had always lived a life where success and career advancement were her primary focus. She talks about the mindset shift that came with motherhood, realizing that the greatest value she carried was not in her ability to present perfectly but in her ability to present the person behind the success. This journey wasn't easy, but it became something truly beautiful as she learned to put her authentic self first.The Challenges of MotherhoodGabriella opens up about the challenges she faced when trying to become a mother. She had a long, emotional journey with infertility that tested her ability to overcome challenges beyond her control. Gabriella reveals how this experience shifted her perspective on life and success. While she was used to achieving anything she set her mind to in her career, the struggle to have a child was something that was completely out of her control, making her question her identity in a way she had never experienced before.Balancing Career and Personal LifeAs we talk about the complexities of balancing career and personal life, Gabriella explains how she was able to use hardship as motivation to keep going. Even when she faced emotional and physical challenges, her drive to succeed in her career and maintain strong relationships with her family pushed her forward. However, it wasn't always easy, and there were times when she felt out of control, not knowing if everything she was doing was worth it.Rediscovering IdentityThe journey through infertility and becoming a mother prompted Gabriella to rediscover who she truly was outside of her professional success. She explains how redefining herself wasn't just about overcoming adversity but also about surrendering to the process and being vulnerable. For the first time, Gabriella allowed herself to acknowledge the struggles, and in doing so, she found a new sense of authenticity that helped her grow as both a person and a leader.The Power of VulnerabilityGabriella shares an important lesson in vulnerability: it's not just about being vulnerable with others, but also with yourself. She talks about how being open about her struggles, both personal and professional, has made her a stronger leader. She reflects on how many leaders, especially women, have often been conditioned to hide their vulnerabilities, but she now understands the power that comes with showing up authentically, even when things aren't perfect.Leadership and EmpathyA major theme of this episode is the relationship between leadership and empathy. Gabriella talks about how being an empathetic leader doesn't make you weak; in fact, it can make you stronger. She emphasizes that showing empathy and understanding in leadership, especially during times of hardship, helps build deeper connections with your team and creates a more sustainable work environment. Leadership is not just about making decisions; it's about showing your humanity and being willing to support others through their challenges.Conclusion and Next StepsAs we wrap up the conversation, Gabriella shares some final thoughts on how leaders can balance their personal and professional lives, as well as how embracing vulnerability can lead to stronger, more authentic connections with those around them. She encourages leaders to keep striving for authenticity and to remember that imperfections and challenges are not weaknesses, but rather growth opportunities.Resources Mentioned:If you're ready to grow as a leader, join me for my free monthly leadership workshop at rockygarza.com/confidence Follow Gabriella on Instagram: @GabriellammonteFollow The Village on Instagram: @thevillagedallasKey Timestamps:00:00 Introduction: Embracing Imperfection00:46 Gabriella's Intentional Journey02:39 The Challenges of Motherhood04:32 Balancing Career and Personal Life06:06 Rediscovering Identity07:49 The Power of Vulnerability08:51 Leadership and Empathy19:19 Conclusion and Next StepsTo join Rocky for his next free virtual event, go to https://rockygarza.com/beyondsuccessSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/trgs/donations

It's Monday, August 18th, 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 Vietnamese Communists cut electricity to church mid-service As a Catholic priest quietly led a service in the home of one of 20 worshippers in the evening of August 11 in the Đại Từ district in northeast Vietnam, Communist authorities cut the home's electricity to stop the service, reports International Christian Concern. Then, they detained three church members. In John 15:18, Jesus said, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first.” Multiple worshippers livestreamed the arrests on Facebook. Within two hours, the video had been seen 60,000 times. After Putin-Trump meeting, Trump declared: “It's up to Zelenskyy” In a join press conference with U.S. President Donald Trump, Russian President Vladimir Putin summarized his perception of what needed to happen to end the Russo-Ukrainian War. He made the remarks following his 3-hour sit-down meeting with President Trump in Anchorage, Alaska last Friday. Listen to the real-time translation by a female translator. PUTIN: “The situation in Ukraine has to do with fundamental threats to our security. Everything that's happening is a tragedy for us and terrible wound. Therefore, the country is sincerely interested in putting an end to it. “[At] the same time, we're convinced that in order to make the settlement lasting and long-term, we need to eliminate all the primary causes of that conflict. And we've said it multiple times, to consider all legitimate concerns of Russia and to reinstate a just balance of security in Europe and in the world on the whole. “Naturally, the security of Ukraine should be ensured as well. I would like to hope that the agreement that we've reached together will help us bring closer that goal and will pave the path towards peace in Ukraine.” Following the press conference, President Donald Trump talked to Sean Hannity on Fox News Channel. HANNITY: “If you had to grade it on a scale of one to 10?” TRUMP: “I think the meeting was a ‘10' in the sense that we got along great. And it's good when, you know, two big powers get along, especially when they're nuclear powers. You know, we're number one, they're number two in the world. That's a big deal. You never want to even mention that word, the word nuclear.” President Trump addressed how it went and what the next step is to bring the Russo-Ukrainian War to a close. TRUMP: “We were together almost three hours, and it was very extensive, and we agreed on a lot of points. I mean, a lot of points were agreed on, but there's not that much as you know, one or two pretty significant items, but I think they can be reached. Now, it's really up to [Ukrainian] President [Volodymyr] Zelenskyy to get it done.” Costco will not sell Abortion Kill Pill Costco Wholesale Corp. has announced it will not dispense the abortion kill pill mifepristone at its U.S. pharmacies, a decision hailed by pro-life advocates as a significant victory, reports LifeNews. The abortion kill pill has been responsible for killing millions of babies and killing and injuring countless women. The retail giant's decision comes amid pressure from Christian investors and pro-life groups urging major retailers to refrain from distributing the abortion drug. Costco has joined other major retailers like Walmart, Kroger, and Albertsons, which have also declined to sell the deadly pills. Send a 2-sentence thank you note to Ron Vachris, Costco President, 999 Lake Drive, Issaquah, Washington 98027. Massachusetts is Sanctuary state for transgender surgery on kids Massachusetts has become a “sanctuary state” for transgender procedures on children, report MassResistance. Shockingly, Massachusetts doctors who break other states' laws prohibiting transgender procedures will be protected from prosecution -- and their names hidden from the public. While 25 states have banned such foolishness, the Massachusetts Legislature passed the so-called “shield law” on July 31, 2025. It is among the most aggressive and offensive anti-family laws anywhere in America. Days later, the state's radical lesbian Democratic Governor Maura Healy, who is in a sinful relationship with Joanna Lydgate, signed it into law. Dr. Elizabeth Boskey at Boston Children's Hospital revealed the hospital is willing to remove a 15-year-old girl's healthy breasts. BOSKEY: “The eligibility for getting gender-affirming surgeries at Boston Children's Hospital is basically the same as it would be for most other hospitals or surgeons in the United States. And that's the case because we all follow the World Professional Association for Transgender Health standards of care. “For top surgery, you are requested, but not required, to have been on gender-affirming hormones for at least a year. If you're a ‘trans woman,' it's really encouraged that you be on estrogen for at least a year, because you want to maximize your natural breast growth. “Many surgical centers require you to be 18. At Boston Children's Hospital, for top surgeries, we'll see people as young as age 15, if they've been affirmed in their gender for a long period of time and don't really have any other life complications that make surgery inappropriate.” 41 Planned Parenthood abortion mills have closed this year Ready for some great news? So far this year, the Planned Parenthood abortion business has closed 41 centers. Despite what the abortion giant and the media would have Americans think, they all participated in abortions, reports Life News. William Carey, father of modern missions, said, And finally, 264 years ago yesterday, a very special man was born in England. William Carey is his name and he is known as the "father of modern missions.” The eldest of five children, his parents were weavers. Carey went to work for the local shoemaker, Thomas Old, during which time he taught himself Hebrew, Italian, Dutch, and French. He often read while working on the shoes. Carey married Old's sister-in-law, Dorothy Plackett, with whom he had seven children. Sadly, three of their kids died before the age of five. Inspired by Jonathan Edwards' An account of the life of the Rev. David Brainerd, Carey spent 41 years in India as a missionary without a furlough. He led 700 souls to Christ in a nation of millions. Romans 10:15 says, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” He wrote a book entitled An Enquiry into the Obligations of Christians to Use Means for the Conversion of the Heathens which led to the founding of the Baptist Missionary Society. Carey was known for saying, “Expect great things from God; attempt great things for God." He also said, "To know the will of God, we need an open Bible and an open map." He understood the importance of both Scripture and understanding the world around us. Finally, he prioritized meaningful work. He said, “I'm not afraid of failure; I'm afraid of succeeding at things that do not matter." Close And that's The Worldview on this Monday, August 18th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

On Friday's show: Cryptocurrency mining in Texas can draw as much power from the electrical grid as the city of Austin, and the industry is only growing. But how much energy is it using? No one knows because the Public Utility Commission refuses to release data on the industry. Reporter Keaton Peters from Straight Arrow News joins us to explain.Also this hour: With news that Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast is closing two of its six clinics in the area, there are fewer options for women's health care in Houston. How are other clinics and health care providers filling that gap?Then, from plans to seize nine acres of unused land from Hermann Park to expand Ben Taub Hospital, to the possibility of a UFC cage fight at the White House next year, our panel of non-experts discusses The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of the news.And unpaid bills, broken agreements, and bad behavior -- what are your rights if your roommate crosses the line?
Patrick fields a mix of heartfelt and challenging questions, from the morality of taxes supporting objectionable causes to a child's wonder about heaven's joys, offering vivid analogies and scriptural grounding. He responds to doubts about Catholic miracles, addresses faith identity confusion, and walks seekers step by step toward the Church, all while making theological concepts feel immediate and deeply personal. Listeners grapple with practical advice on marriage, sacraments, and apologetics, and Patrick meets each with sharp clarity and unwavering encouragement. David - Is paying your taxes a sin since you are willingly giving money that winds up in Planned Parenthood's hands? (01:01) Winston (9-years-old) - What do we do in heaven after we die? (07:01) Steven - There are atheists that I know who don't like the Church. Are you aware of any peer reviewed studies that prove miracles? (13:56) John - Why does God want division when we seek unity? (23:32) Norman - The majority of people that I ask who wear the cross say I am not a Christian, but a Catholic. Why is there such a separation? (27:41) Meg (email) - I was confirmed against my will, in the mid '80s. Was my confirmation valid? (36:04) Greg - I am looking forward to joining the Church. How do I start the process and how do I get over past sins? (42:53) Victor - Marital relations question (49:02)

When consumer trust is more fragile than ever, how can brands, particularly in highly scrutinized categories like infant nutrition, utilize the latest approaches to not only build trust but also deepen consumer relationships? Agility requires not only adapting to evolving consumer expectations and technological advancements but also maintaining ethical and transparent practices, especially when dealing with sensitive topics such as infant health. It also demands a willingness to experiment, learn, and iterate quickly in response to market feedback and emerging trends. Today, we're going to talk about building trust in a digital age, navigating the complexities of launching a purpose-driven CPG brand, and redefining what “healthy” means for a new generation of parents. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Meika Hollender, Chief Marketing Officer at Nara Organics. About Meika Hollender Meika Hollender is the Chief Marketing Officer of Nara Organics, a pioneering brand redefining infant nutrition with its first-of-its-kind USDA-certified organic whole milk formula.

After growing Sustain into a category leader, the company was acquired by Grove in 2019.

Pastor Micah Stephens delivers a powerful sermon urging believers to live as "living sacrifices" based on Romans 12. He emphasizes that true worship is a willful, daily choice to surrender all aspects of life to God, not out of obligation but in response to His boundless mercy. Drawing from personal anecdotes, like his son Oliver's football jamboree and his adopted daughter's life saved through Love Life, Micah connects biblical truth to real-world action, addressing the closure of surgical abortions at Thousand Oaks' Planned Parenthood and the dangers of Assembly Bill 495. He challenges the congregation to reject cowardice, embrace sacrifice, and live boldly for Christ, aligning with Godspeak's anchored reading program, which progresses through Romans to deepen faith and cultural engagement. The sermon closes with a call to worship through obedience, reflecting Christ's ultimate sacrifice.Verse ReferencesMatthew 18:6, Psalm 82:3–4, Revelation 21:8, Romans 7:14–25, Romans 8:1, Romans 12:1, 1 Chronicles 29:9, Joshua 24:14–15, Romans 5:8, Matthew 16:24–25, Galatians 2:20, 1 Chronicles 29:14Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information!https://godspeak.comPrayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

It's Monday, August 11th, 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 CA pastor warns if anti-parent bill passes they need to leave state Pastor Jack Hibbs, Founder of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, sounded the alarm last week about a dangerous anti-parent bill in California. HIBBS: “[Democratic California Governor] Gavin Newsom and his buddies up there have crafted Assembly Bill 495. This bill 100% strips parents of their parental rights. It allows an individual to obtain this new form that comes with the bill. They can download it. They can get it mailed to them. They can go pick it up. They fill it out. “They can name a child, let's say Suzie Q. So, John goes to a school in California and says, ‘I have this form, and I am asking for Suzie Q to be put into my custody. I want to take her out of school.' “The bill does not require a background check for this man. Requires no identification, no driver's license, no nothing. There's no requirement in the bill for the school to call you to ask you if it's okay if John takes your daughter out of school. “It is literally being called by opponents of it -- I'm one of them -- the California Legislature Trafficking Bill. It is unbelievable. Go to realimpact.us. Read about it. “Four or five reprobates have written it. We're going to let you know who they are, and we're going to campaign against them.” Supporters of the controversial bill see it as a necessary response to President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration. In a so-called “fact sheet” about the proposal, Democratic Assemblywoman Celeste Rodriguez argued that the bill enables the kids of illegals to be cared for if their parents are detained or deported. However, conservatives and Christians believe the law could be used in nefarious ways, allowing non-related adults to a child to gain legal authority over the child with a single affidavit that does not require parental consent, reports Faithwire.com. The California Senate is about to vote on it. That's why Pastor Hibbs urged the thousands in his congregation to travel the 400 miles north to California's capitol on Tuesday, August 19th to speak out against it. HIBBS: “I need all of you to take August 19th off. I'm going to ask all of you to drive, bus, fly. I don't care how you get there, but I want you to meet me at the Capitol steps in Sacramento because our elected leaders are right now trying to get a bill passed that's the unthinkable. “We're looking for a minimum of 5,000 people to be there that day. Let your voice be heard. The last time we gathered up there, it was the largest gathering in 27 years in our state capitol.” Gina Gleason, director of the Real Impact ministry at Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, said, “[Democrats] have a supermajority and Republicans are in the minority. So usually the Democrats get pretty much everything that they want unless we, as the church, as conservatives, stand up and speak up, and that's what we're trying to do with this bill. If we make enough noise, if we get enough attention, they will back off.” Pastor Hibbs said that the problem is too few Christians vote. HIBBS: “This is the California government, ladies and gentlemen, that somebody's voted them in. I think we did, maybe, by not voting. ‘Nah, I just sit that out. I'm going to get involved in that kind of stuff.' And … here we are. “Because whenever there's an evil, evil always fills a void, a vacancy. Jesus said that a man void of the Holy Spirit, the demons go search out and bring seven more demons worse than himself, inhabits the man because there was a vacancy. “Because good people don't vote in California, we've got idiots running this state, perverts.” Pastor Hibbs issued a dramatic warning. HIBBS: “If this bill passes, I'm going to ask you to leave the state of California. You're going to need to pack up, and you're going to have to get out. You got to get out. You got to run with your kids. You got to go. I would not subject my child to one second in this public school system with this new law, AB 495. “Your child's safety is number one in your life. I never thought the day would ever come when I would encourage you to leave. “As you can tell, I'm angry, and I'll die on this hill. This is the end of California. If this bill passes, your children are now subject and vulnerable to state-sanctioned kidnapping or trafficking.” Pray for the demise of AB 495. If you live in California, tell your legislator you oppose AB 495 and attend the Tuesday, August 19th rally in Sacramento. Proverbs 21:15 says, “When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous, but terror to evildoers.” Trump to meet with Putin in Alaska after issuing ‘very severe' tariff threat President Donald Trump announced that he will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin on American soil this Friday to discuss an end to the war in Ukraine, reports One America News. On Truth Social, President Trump wrote, “The highly anticipated meeting between myself, as President of the United States of America, and President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, will take place Friday, August 15, 2025, in the Great State of Alaska. Further details to follow.” The upcoming talks between the two world leaders follow after President Trump gave Putin a 10-12 day deadline to secure a ceasefire in Ukraine, or potentially face “very severe tariffs” and sanctions. Man avoids prison after viciously assaulting two elderly pro-lifers in Baltimore And finally, Patrick Brice, who was found guilty earlier this year of savagely beating two elderly pro-life activists in a May 2023 attack outside a Baltimore Planned Parenthood abortion mill, was only sentenced to home detention and probation last Thursday, but notably will not be required to spend a day behind bars, reports LifeSiteNews.com. On August 7, Baltimore City Circuit Judge Yvette Bryant sentenced Brice to just one year of home detention and three years of probation for brutally attacking pro-life sidewalk counselors Mark Crosby and Dick Schaefer, who were 73 and 80 respectively at the time. Schafer and Crosby were simply praying and offering alternatives to women who were coming to kill their babies, when a Planned Parenthood “deathscort” -- a staff member or volunteer who "escorts" women past pro-lifers -- attacked them. In broad daylight, Brice, who was 28, assaulted Schafer from behind, throwing him into a planter and window. When Crosby ran to his aid, Brice hit him in the face, knocking him to the ground, sending him crashing onto the brick sidewalk, and then Brice kicked him in the head. Tragically, Crosby suffered a fractured plate bone in his right cheek and had to have his eye orbit replaced with metal. His right eye was blinded, and he suffered a concussion. Video of the attack, which we have linked in our transcript today, released by Baltimore Police clearly shows the extreme violence of Brice's attack on Crosby and Schaefer. In February, a jury convicted Brice on two counts of second-degree assault and reckless endangerment for attacking the pro-life activists, but did not reach a verdict on the more serious charge of first-degree assault. Shockingly, in a June bench trial, Judge Bryant acquitted Brice of the first-degree assault charges on the absurd grounds that Crosby had “provoked” the defendant. The elderly pro-lifer told Daily Wire, “Baltimore is criminal-friendly. It's not victim-friendly at all, especially if you're a senior. Judges do not like pro-lifers. They don't like us saving babies, I don't know why.” Brice also yanked off Crosby's crucifix and chain which he was wearing around his neck. Crosby said that despite the pain he endured from the attack, “My shedding blood in front of Planned Parenthood for Jesus and the babies” has actually been “a gift to me.” The “millions of babies murdered” at Planned Parenthood over the years “have shed rivers of blood.” Isaiah 59:7 describes the abortionists and the Planned Parenthood “deathscorts,” like Patrick Brice, quite well. “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” The prosecution had asked Judge Bryant for a 10-year prison sentence, urging the judge to send a message that attacking two peaceful elderly men in broad daylight for their religious or political views will not be tolerated. But Judge Bryant, who shockingly did not allow Crosby to show his wounded eye to the jury during the trial, opted to give Brice a “slap on the wrist.” Send a polite, 2-3 sentence letter to Judge Yvette Bryant objecting to her decision to acquit Patrick Brice of the first-degree assault charge and her refusal to give him any prison time at all for his violent attack on two peaceful, elderly men. Address it to: Judge Yvette Bryant, Cummings Courthouse, Chambers 252, 111 N. Calvert Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202. I hope you are one of 50 Worldview listeners to send her a letter. In light of her miscarriage of justice, she needs to hear from us. Send me an email to let me know you sent it: Adam@TheWorldview.com.

The fight to save the unborn got some good news! On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we shared with you the news that an unprecedented number of Planned Parenthood clinics have shut their doors across the nation. We also helped you to once again lengthen your prayer lists as we heard about more believers around the world who are laying their lives down to the sake of the gospel. Why does witnessing seems to be one of the hardest things for believers to do? Our guest challenged us all with this eternally important question. He confronted and encouraged us with God’s word regarding the importance of sharing the good news with a lost world. Taking some of the fear out of the proposition, our guest used scripture to show believer how to live lives that invite people ask about the difference and thereby create openings to share Christ with them. It is an old adage, but true nonetheless, “Freedom isn’t free!” And in our day and age it is under assault like never before. From surveillance technology all around us to the increase acceptance of socialism at the highest levels of government leadership, freedoms that previous generations fought to preserve are now the sacrificial lambs to totalitarianism. Our guest encouraged us to not only recognize the times we are living in but to take action now before it is too late to take action at all! Is God passe’, past His prime, a relic of past generations that didn’t know better? You might be surprised to learn that many of the people you drive by in your daily commute or pass in the grocery aisle believe this. Our guest explained how we have changed from a God-fearing nation to one that has pushed Him aside. His practical strategies helped us understand the root of the struggles and how to address them boldly and biblically as we continue to contend for the faith. The end of the week is upon us and that means it is time to sit down for another radio classroom lesson on using God’s word as the measuring stick of truth against the false, misleading and dangerous ideas bought and sold in the marketplace of ideas every day. Our favorite husband and wife teaching team are ready to show us how to discern the truth from the lies, as they examine more of the headlines of the week.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Global outrage is building as the hunger crisis in Gaza descends into new depths of horror. Even aid workers themselves — the people tasked with helping Palestinians find food and water — say they, too, are starving. The ballooning crisis comes amid months of severe aid restrictions imposed by Israel, which has justified its actions with claims that Hamas has been stealing food and other supplies to maintain its control of the territory. But even President Donald Trump said Monday that Israel needs to do more to let aid in. Maryland Democratic Sen. Chris Van Hollen joins us to talk about the worsening hunger crisis in Gaza, how the U.S. is complicit, and what should be done next.And in headlines: President Trump declines to rule out a pardon for Jeffrey Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell, former North Carolina Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper announces a Senate run, and a federal judge blocks Medicaid cuts for Planned Parenthood clinics.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday
