It's Wednesday, February 5th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Pakistani Christian brothers released from prison Praise God! Two Christian brothers are now free from prison in Pakistan. A court acquitted the twin brothers last month. Eighteen-year-olds Sahil and Raheel Shahid were facing false Islamic blasphemy accusations. The brothers' attorney told Morning Star News, “We believe that this case was a conspiracy against the Christian residents so that vested interests could grab their land and properties.” False blasphemy accusations are an increasing problem in Pakistan, a 97%-Muslim nation, The country is ranked 8th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult places to be a Christian. Countries in which religious nationalism predominates Pew Research released a global report on religious nationalism. The report identified religious nationalists as people who believe in the historically predominant religion of their country and believe that their religion should influence their laws and leaders. Religious nationalism was most common in Kenya for countries with Christian roots. For Buddhists, the country with the most religious nationalism was Thailand. For Hindus, it was India. For Jews, it was Israel. And for Muslims, it was Indonesia and Bangladesh. Religious nationalism for Christians was most common in Africa and South America while being the least common in Europe. The United States was somewhere in-between with just 6% of adults identifying as religious nationalists. Psalm 33:12 says, “Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance.” Senator Cassidy explained his conditional support of RFK, Jr. In the United States, Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, a moderate Republican who voted to convict President Donald Trump in February 2021 of “incitement of insurrection”, was a key vote as member of the Senate Finance Committee which considered Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to be the next Secretary of Health and Human Services. As a physician, Senator Cassidy was especially concerned with Kennedy's questions about a possible link between childhood vaccines and autism. Before the committee vote, Cassidy made this statement from the Senate floor. CASSIDY: “Now, Mr. Kennedy and the administration reached out seeking to reassure me regarding their commitment to protecting the public health benefit of vaccination. To this end, Mr. Kennedy and the administration committed that he and I would have an unprecedentedly close, collaborative working relationship if he is confirmed. “We will meet or speak multiple times a month. If confirmed, he will maintain the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices recommendations without changes. CDC will not remove statements on their website, pointing out that vaccines do not cause autism. “He committed that they help committee chair, whether it's me or someone else, may choose a representative on any board or commission formed to review vaccine safety. These commitments, and my expectation that we can have a great working relationship to make America healthy again, is the basis of my support. “If Mr. Kennedy is confirmed, I will use my authority as chairman of the Senate committee, with oversight of HHS, to rebuff any attempt to remove the public's access to life-saving vaccines without iron-clad, causational, scientific evidence that can be accepted and defended before the mainstream scientific community and before Congress.” RFK, Jr. voted out of Senate Committee On Tuesday, the U.S. Senate Finance Committee voted to advance President Donald Trump's nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. The committee voted 14-13 along party lines. Committee Chair Mike Crapo of Idaho oversaw the committee vote. CRAPO: “We now have not only a quorum, but all members of the committee are present. I move that the committee favorably report the nomination of the Honorable Robert F. Kennedy, Jr of California to be Secretary of Health and Human Services. Is there a second?” COMMITTEE MEMBER: “Second.” CLERK: “Mr. Chairman, the final tally was 14 ayes, 13 nays. CRAPO: “The vote was 14-13. The nomination is reported favorably.” Kennedy's nomination now goes before the full U.S. Senate where he needs a simple majority or a minimum of 51 votes to be confirmed. Trump: Military will no longer pay for abortion travel Last Tuesday, the Trump administration announced the military will no longer cover travel expenses for services members to get abortions. U.S. Republican Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama notably stood against the Defense Department's funding for abortion under Biden's leadership. He said, “For the past two years, I have been sounding the alarm about the Pentagon's illegal and immoral practice of using taxpayer dollars to fund abortions. I took a lot of heat when I stood alone for nearly a year in holding senior Pentagon promotions over this—but as of today, it was all worth it.” Galatians 6:9 says, “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.” Department of Education getting phased down The Trump administration is beginning to scale back the Department of Education. Already, the administration has placed dozens of employees on paid administrative leave. This is part of a broader effort to remove hires based on diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. The administration is also working on an executive order that would begin the process of eliminating the Education Department entirely. GDP slowed In economic news, the U.S. Gross Domestic Product slowed down during the last three months of 2024. The economy grew by 2.3% during the fourth quarter of last year, down from 3.1% during the third quarter. Economists had expected 2.5% growth for the fourth quarter. Also, the Federal Reserve held its key interest rate at 4.25%-4.5%, saying inflation remains somewhat elevated. The Fed cut interest rates three times since September 2024 and President Trump is calling for more cuts. Virginia voted down anti-homeschooling bill Virginia lawmakers voted down a bill that would have eliminated the religious exemption from the state's public education requirements. The bill would have added many regulations for parents who educate their children at home for religious reasons. Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin wrote on X, “I stand with parents across Virginia in opposition to Senate Bill 1031. We cannot allow this attack on homeschooling to become law.” Court: San Francisco must rehire employees who refused COVID shot And finally, a federal appeals court ruled in favor of Christian employees who were fired for not getting a COVID-19 shot in California. The city of San Francisco must now rehire workers who were terminated for refusing the shot. The ruling stated, “Appellants' coerced decision between their faith and their livelihood imposed emotional damage which cannot now be fully undone. … [San Francisco's] finding that Appellants' religious beliefs were insufficient to warrant any accommodations can only be described as a ‘dignitary affront.' ... The circumstances surrounding Appellants' termination constitute irreparable harm.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, February 5th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

In this episode of "LaVeist and Claville," we provide a comprehensive analysis of the outcomes of Election Day 2023 and their implications for future political landscapes.The Democratic Party has made significant gains in Virginia, seizing full control of both legislative chambers. This development represents a substantial blow to the agenda of Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin, particularly impacting his conservative policy plans. The Virginia elections are being scrutinized as an early indicator of the Democratic Party's momentum as we approach the 2024 congressional races and could potentially hint at the party's strengths and weaknesses heading into the next presidential election cycle.We also delve into Kentucky's election, where Governor Andy Beshear, a Democrat, secured reelection in what is traditionally a Republican stronghold. This victory signals a notable shift in voter sentiment and raises questions about the broader political trends in traditionally red states.In Mississippi, Governor Tate Reeves, a Republican, won reelection, albeit facing an unexpectedly strong challenge from Democrat Brandon Presley. The race was closer than anticipated, suggesting a dynamic political environment even in firmly red states.A critical outcome from Ohio highlights a decisive stance on abortion rights, with voters enshrining protections in the state constitution through the approval of ballot measure Issue 1. This decision aligns with President Biden's statement celebrating the protection of fundamental freedoms and underscores a rejection of the restrictive abortion policies proposed by MAGA Republicans.Throughout the podcast, we explore the influence of national political figures in these state races, including President Biden and former President Obama, whose endorsements and campaign efforts have shaped the election results. The episode also considers the strategic implications for both parties, as national Democrats may interpret Virginia's results as validation of their stance on abortion, a key issue leading into the 2024 elections.Our analysis emphasizes the potential for conflict and negotiation in Virginia, where a Democratic-led legislature is likely to encounter resistance from the Republican governor. Despite the electoral wins, Democrats must navigate carefully to advance their policy agenda.Join us as we dissect the nuanced details of these elections and consider what they tell us about America's political currents and what to anticipate as we look ahead to the next election cycle.

On today's podcast: 1) Ohio voters enshrined abortion rights in their state's Constitution, a boon for Democrats running on the issue and complicating Republicans' approach to the 2024 elections. 2) Political polarization has helped make 2023 the biggest off-year for ballot measures in more than a decade in the US, 3) Israel said its troops have entered the middle of Gaza's main city, as they continue their operation against Hamas. 4) Two days after former President Donald Trump testified at his New York Fraud trial, it's his daughter Ivanka's turn to take the stand. Full transcript: Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager and I'm Karen Moscow. Here are the stories we're following today. We begin with last night's election results and a major victory for abortion rights in Ohio. Voters approved Issue one, which enshrines the right to abortion access in the state constitution, by a fifty six to forty four percent margin. Bloomberg Politics reporter Mark Niquette is in Ohio and has more It passed pretty overwhelmingly. And what's going to get a lot of attention is this past in what has become a Republican state. And it's clear that this issue passed even in counties that Donald Trump carried pretty handily in twenty twenty. Bloomberg's Mark Mniquette reports this makes Ohio the latest state to back abortion rights after last year's Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. In the interest of transparency, we should note that Michael Bloomberg, founder and majority owner of Bloomberg Radio parent Bloomberg LP, donated a million dollars to the campaign supporting Ohio's abortion rights amendment. Well Nathan, It was also a good night for Democrats in Virginia, with every seat in the state legislature up for grabs. Democrats won majorities in both the House of Delegates and the state Senate. It's a blow to Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin. He's seen as a presidential contender in twenty twenty eight and had hoped to pass a fifteen week abortion band with GOP control. And in another major race, Democrat Andy Basher has won a second term as governor of Kentucky, a state former President Donald Trump carried by nearly twenty five points in twenty twenty And In other political news, Karen Tonight, in Miami, Republicans hold their third presidential debate. Five candidates will take part. Ron De Santis, Sneaky Haley, Vivek Ramaswami, Tim Scott, and Chris Christy Well Nathan notably absent, will be GOP front runner Donald Trump. Two days after the former president testified at his New York fraud trial, it's his daughter, Ivanka's turn to take the stand, and Bloomberg's ad Baxter has the story. The trial issue is whether Donald Trump inflated the worth of his properties to lenders and other business dealings. Ivanka Trump has pretty much disappeared from the public spotlight, opting to leave both New York and Washington, d C. For Miami, but part of what prosecutors want to look at as her role in several real estate transactions, as well as the valuation of her New York apartment, which they say was priced at about two and a half times the value ed Baxter Bloomberg Radio. Okay, Ed, thank you. We now turn to the latest developments in the war in the Middle East. Israel says its troops have entered the middle of Gaza's main city. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia's Minister of Investment says talks toward normalization of ties with Israel remain on the table, Despite the Kingdom criticism of Israeli military action. We spoke exclusively with Khalid Alfala, you know when those discussions were taking place, and his Royal Highs, the Crown Prince was clear that it is contingent on a pathway to peace for resolution of the Palestinian questions. That was on the table, that remains on the table. And obviously the setback over the last month has brought that has clarified. Why was Saudi Arabia so adamant The resolution of the Palestinian conflict has to be part of a broader normalization in the Middle East. Saw the Investment Minister. Khalid Alfala added his country is pained on a human level at the loss of life in Gaza and in Israel. He spoke at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum in Singapore. Well back in the US, Nathan, the House is voted to censure Democrat Rashida Tahlieb of Michigan for her rhetoric about the Israel Hamas war, and Speaker Mike Johnson presided over the vote on this vote. Quote. The yea's are two one hundred and thirty four and the nays are one hundred eighty eight, with four answering present. The resolution is adopted.

Today, investors await more clues on interest rates from a host of Central Bank officials, including FED share J. Powell.

This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning. I'm Nathan Hager. We want to get you no more results from last night's off off year elections. Abortion rights may have been officially on the ballot in just one state, but the issue may have driven voters in races beyond that state Ohio, and into Virginia and perhaps beyond for more. We're joined now by Bloomberg News Senior editor Bill Ferries. Bill, good morning. It was a pretty overwhelming result for Issue one in Ohio. Does that results have residents into next year's election? Absolutely? I think for Democrats who have been really trying to get the party to focus on abortion rights, they're all seeing what they would call victories in Ohio, Kentucky and even Virginia last night, and I think they're going to say that that is a positive way forward for them looking into twenty twenty four after what is probably many would say has been a tough week looking at Paul showing President Biden perhaps lagging former President Trump in a number of the key swing states. So this is something I think, given the results last night, you're going to hear Democrats talking a lot more about in the coming months that abortion. I'm sorry. That result in Virginia in particular is pretty interesting because the Republican governor there, Glenn Youngkin, who's been talked about as a potential presidential candidate, not just in twenty twenty eight but this this cycle as well, had campaigned pretty hard on this idea that if Republicans took over the state legislature, that a fifteen week abortion ban could be passed in Virginia. What does this result for Democrats winning in Virginia mean for Youngkin's political prospects. Well, for Democrats, I think it's a big sigh of relief that the Virginia still came in I think on their side, and looks like both chambers are going to be in Democratic hands going into the going in the next year for Young Kin, I think it's going to be it's going to make that idea that he could be some sort of last minute candidate if for some reason Donald Trump is not in the race. It starts to rule that out. He has a much weaker hand facing Democrats in both chambers in terms of being able to get his policies passed and dominating the agenda. I think Democrats are going to try to set the tone once they take their seats. It does, you know, it's still I think the idea that Youngkin could could be a candidate in twenty twenty eight is also tested a little bit. It's so early to even be talking about that at this point. But if you're a potential yet we do. If you're a potential candidate looking that far ahead, you think about the agenda you want to set, the accomplishments, the legislative accomplishments you'd like to have. And I think this makes that a lot harder for someone like Governor Youngkin to plan out and game out ahead of that election. You know, almost five years from now. You mentioned Democrats potentially talking more about abortion rights into this election cycle. What about the economy, that's been an issue that this present has struggled to gain traction on. Does abortion override economic issues for voters in this election cycle? You know, that's the economy is often the deciding factor for a lot of voters going into the polling booth. I think there are definitely voters on both sides who would view abortions as the key issue, the biggest thing, the most important thing to them. But in the end, you know, I think the economy is often what swings voters either way, particularly those independent voters in the middle. If heading you know, in the months heading into November twenty twenty four, they're feeling better than they are now about the economy, that probably benefits the incumbent of the Biden administration. If they're feeling worse and there's a lot of signs that, you know, the economy could be struggling more next year than it is this year, then that makes it I think a harder slog for the president and his team to argue that they should remain in place. So it's the economy, you know, it's that Carville saying it's the economy stupid. I think that that's always going to be if not the biggest, one of the biggest factors. We know that voters right now are not very pleased with where things are, even if some of the numbers are perhaps better better than forecast. In the time we have left, Bill, I want to talk about geopolitics and the latest in the Israel Hamas war, with Israeli troops getting gaining ground in Gaza City and now the G seven commenting what's the latest. Yeah, so we heard from Israel, Israel's defense ministers today saying that their forces are now in the heart of Gaza City. You know, they've been they've kind of encircled Gaza at this point, and they say they're going after key Hamas leaders and trying to destroy some of the tunnel networks and the weapons depots that have been built up there. And the G seven coming out today, the foreign ministers coming out with a unified statement saying that there should be humanitarian pauses in the war. That's of course separate from a cease fire. But Israel, who's even pushed back on the idea of some of the pauses, saying that aid is getting in and any pause would only benefit Hamas. So lots of complicated politics going on there still.

The most significant elections ahead of the 2024 cycle are being held tomorrow, with voters and candidates alike watching closely to see how the off-year races can inform patterns for the year ahead. With the third Republican presidential primary debate airing Wednesday, November 8th, what will the candidates glean from the election results? And what can viewers expect from candidates' performances on the debate stage? Republican Strategist and Co-Founder of South & Hill Strategies Colin Reed explains that for candidates to stand out at this point in the race, they must separate themselves from each other, not the frontrunner. He warns that although foreign policy is taking center stage in the news, candidates must remember that the economy remains the number one issue for voters. Uphill battle: Abortion remains a ballot measure that Democrats are relying on for voter turnout in key races. Colin focuses on Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin's strategy in Virginia and explains how his clear messaging doesn't allow opportunity his opponents to define what he stands for.

Tuesday kicks off Election Day and there are several critical elections that will shape the political landscape. In Ohio, abortion rights activists are facing a pivotal moment. Ohio could now restore abortion standards and mandate life and health exceptions. The decision would also block a controversial six-week abortion ban. In Kentucky, Governor Andy Beshear, a rare red state Democrat, faces a tough re-election battle against Republican Attorney General Daniel Cameron. Cameron's controversial record on criminal justice, especially regarding the murder of Breonna Taylor, has made this race a nail-biter. In Mississippi's governor's race, Republican incumbent Tate Reeves is battling allegations of misusing federal funds, while Democratic candidate Brandon Presley aims to tap into his moderate to conservative message and strong support from the state's Black community. Finally, in Virginia, Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin is making a strong push to reshape the state's legislature. He's striving to shift the balance of power in both houses, highlighting his stance on a 15-week abortion ban. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Live from the Heart of America—I'm Steve Gruber— Your Soldier of Truth—the Tip of the Spear against socialists—here ready to fight for you from the Foxhole of Freedom—AND—please my friends REMEMBER TO THINK while its still legal—this is the Steve Gruber Show— Here are 3 big things you need to know right now— Number One— In New York, victory for public school teachers—who were fired for refusing Covid shots—a big win from a State Supreme Court Judge— Number Two— In another completely reckless policy decision—Joe Biden's team has agreed to give Iran $6 Billion U-S dollars in exchange for prisoners—what ever happened to not negotiating with terrorists? Number Three— Joe Biden's embarrassing performance at the G-20 summit—wandering around—mumbling about John Wayne and Dog Face Pony soldiers—telling the reporters he has to follow orders and only call on the 5 reporters that are on the pre-approved list with pre-approved questions—is all part of the continuing collapse of the Biden Presidency— Americans of all political persuasions—even those that want to believe Joe Biden can do a good job—know, its not happening and it's not going to happen— Panic is setting in— In told you several weeks ago that the networks had shifted their messaging and President Biden had been dropped from the protection list—and beyond a few lap dogs like Joe Scarborough and Mika Brezinski—the media has finally realized they are also to blame for the massive failure across the board of this failed President and administration— As a result—those networks have been ratcheting up the attacks—the sharp commentary and the loud criticism of just about everything they are doing in Washington these days— And it doesn't matter what topic you pick—though it continues to be easy to focus on the foolishness of Bidenomics—as a theme and as a policy— And here is the old adage—if you're explaining—you're losing and right now the Democrats—and every member of the administration is explaining pretty much all day every day—how good the economy is—that inflation is down, unemployment is low, and wages are up—even though purchasing power is far less than ever before— The desperation is really setting in—because right now every issue is failing for the Democrats—and Joe's woeful performance on the world stage is the just the latest failure to add fuel to the fire burning down this White House—and we haven't even bothered to mention Maui, Florida, Ukraine or the ever expanding dumpster fire that is the Hunter Biden money laundering and sleaze operations—that obviously entangled the sitting President too— So where are the once protective cable news channels? Well let's take a tour and find out— So you are getting the sense—that those inside the beltway are feeding their friends on TV the inside story—BUT the polls just keep returning brutal numbers—on every front—and with approval ratings in the 30's lately—its hard to see how Joe Biden rallies—right now he is losing to a guy with 91 indictments—no matter how dishonest they are—and that guy could be a convicted felon by the time we get to November 2024—and he is still the most likely person to emerge as President of the United States in January of 2025—because Donald Trump's numbers have not weakened—in fact as Joe gets worse—people are looking at the Trump years with nostalgia— BUT its not jus the polls—because as mom always said—actions speak louder than words—and right now—with the election well over a year away—Democrats are digging into the war chest and pulling out truckloads of cash— And there are other concerns for Democrats—you see in Virginia the once reliable blue state—seems to have become decidedly purple—with Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin fighting for parents—the same parents that powered him into office in the first place— In fact, the shift in Virginia could really be complete at the state level when elections are held in November—because in tight races it looks like Republicans could pull off statewide victories and take over the state house and senate—in one close race Democrat Susanna Gibson—was just outted by the Washington Post—for posting X-rated porn videos with her husband—videos that were made after she entered the race—and the videos were for money and they are hard-core according to numerous outlets—meaning that once close race could easily go to the republican—because he didn't post videos on “Hot Wife Experience” go figure— Meanwhile—the Democrat Governor of New Mexico declaring she will decide what Constitutional rights citizens in her state can enjoy—is getting major blowback from Republicans and Democrats alike—as thousands turned out to protest her ban on the 2nd Amendment—which fuels conservatives not only in the land of enchantment—BUT will also play all over the nation—because she says Constitutional rights are up to her—and she can cancel them if she declares an emergency— Oh, and one more thing—Joe Biden skipped a visit to ground zero on 9-11 and then lied about where he was right after the attacks while talking to people in Alaska—
IN THE NEWS:Attorney General Jason Miyares is signing on in support of a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The lawsuit calls into question the funding model, which finances regulation of industries with money that comes from the industries that are regulated. Oral arguments in the case are expected this fall.The Democratic primary was a historic first for voters choosing candidates for the Arlington County Board, which had two open seats. But many voters raised objections about a "single transferable vote," essentially that they were able to cast only one vote even though there were two open seats in an election with six candidates. So the Arlington County Board did a 180 last weekend, returning to a traditional system for the general election. Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin is working with Democratic Senator Mark Warner to lure semiconductor manufacturing companies to Virginia. They appeared together last week at a summit hosted by Virginia Tech.At the Watercooler: The Youngkin administration's new model policies on transgender students are damaging and restrictive, and the Arlington County School Board has remained completely silent on the issue--despite Michael's best efforts.TRIVIA: What year was Ken Plum first elected to the House of Delegates?Learn more at http://linktr.ee/JacklegMedia
Teaching Black history in Virginia classrooms today means sprinting through a political minefield. One misstep brings the ire of parents and conservative leaders who say teaching how race has shaped American history is harmful and divisive. Virginia is one of 18 states that limits how teachers can discuss racism in the classroom. Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin made the issue a cornerstone of his election campaign, and his first executive order banned teaching “inherently divisive concepts” in the state's public schools. The order says K through 12 curriculum are subject to a compliance review by top education officials in Virginia. Youngkin even established a short-lived hotline for parents to complain about teachers and lesson plans involving race. Matthan Wilson, who teaches government and African American American history at a high school in Newport News, aims to objectively teach the painful parts of American history, while dodging a political firefight. A 56-year-old Black man, Wilson, was raised in Portsmouth and was bussed to a predominantly white elementary school. As a young student, he began to distrust the history he was being taught, leading him to read independently and question narratives that favored white American exceptionalism. Today, Wilson teaches the African-American history elective. The course was developed in 2020 under former Governor Ralph Northam, following the racial reckoning brought by the Black Lives Matter movement. He helps his students think critically about complexities such as Blacks passing as white during segregation, and the contradiction of the founding fathers owning slaves and advocating for equality under the law. In his classroom, only two students stand for the pledge. Most feel the U.S. government has failed them, having spent their formative years in a society where systemic racism persists, as evidenced by many metrics of inequality. But Wilson sees hope. He's inspired by his student's motivation to learn outside of the classroom, and desire to bring Americans of all races closer in both fellowship and equity. He encourages students to seek balanced perspectives and to challenge the mythos of American history. It's his way of making sure that some of the darker chapters of history are not repeated.. “Understanding your mistakes makes you a better person, Wilson says, “because you say I messed up, which means I can change it.”
This week, There is no shortage of insanity. Los Angeles Councilwoman blamed Toyota for catalytic converter thefts from the Prius — and reportedly did so after opposing a council motion targeting the crime. Degenerates sexually attracted to children may soon enjoy special treatment as a protected class in the state of Minnesota on account of a new Democratic bill. A woman is accused of assaulting three TSA agents because they took away her apple juice at a checkpoint. A diversity officer representing Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin ruffled a lot of feathers when he spoke at a recent mandatory faculty training at the Virginia Military Academy, invoking the name of Jesus in reverential prayer and slamming the concept of equity. A letter from a Vermont school district to parents expressed a policy change to use "gender inclusive phrases" in place of words like "boy" and "girl" in a curriculum unit about human reproduction.

Read the transcript of this podcast: https://therealnews.com/virginia-revokes-early-release-for-inmates-with-good-behaviorLawmakers in Virginia have approved a draconian budget measure from Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin that takes aim at inmates' eligibility for early release. The new law prevents so-called “violent offenders” from applying credits earned for good behavior towards their early release. Even inmates who have already earned early release are being affected, with some families learning at the eleventh hour that their loved ones will no longer be allowed to come home. Prison reform activist Chari Baker, whose spouse is also incarcerated, recently confronted Governor Youngkin over his cruel decision to prolong the separation of families on the verge of being reunited. Baker joins Rattling the Bars co-host Mansa Musa to discuss the new Virginia law and what advocates, families, and incarcerated people are doing to fight back.Pre-Production/Studio/Post-Production: Cameron GranadinoHelp us continue producing Rattling the Bars by following us and becoming a monthly sustainer: Donate: https://therealnews.com/donate-pod-rtbSign up for our newsletter: https://therealnews.com/nl-pod-rtbGet Rattling the Bars updates: https://therealnews.com/up-pod-rtbLike us on Facebook: https://facebook.com/therealnewsFollow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/therealnews

Hey Identifier, https://www.cnn.com/2022/01/21/us/virginia-school-board-threat-gun-loaded/index.html Police in Virginia said a woman has been charged after she claimed at a school board meeting she would show up with loaded guns if her children were required to wear masks at school. In the post on the department's Facebook page, authorities said Amelia King, 42 of Luray, was charged with making an oral threat while on school property Friday afternoon. A magistrate judge released her on a $5,000 unsecured bond. The board had been debating Covid-19 mitigation measures as the Omicron wave continues to cause significant community transmission, and in light of one of new Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin's executive orders. #AmeliaKing #Antimasker #schoolboardmeeting #karen Leave us a Voice Mail or Support https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/message https://anchor.fm/the-identity-booth/support Sub to the channel here https://www.twitch.tv/theidentitybooth Donate https://streamlabs.com/projecteto/tip The Goal: Try to Identify with you as you try to Identify with me.

Elections have consequences, as the country learned last year when the Biden administration took office and as Virginians are learning now that Republican Governor Glenn Youngkin has taken office to replace Democrat Ralph Northam. Youngkin's election against the partisan alignment of the increasingly Democratic state has been credited to his emphasis on parental power in education—and his opponent, former Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe, having said in a debate “I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach.” And in keeping with his election message, Gov. Youngkin issued a series of executive orders that banned the teaching of “divisive concepts” like critical race theory and affirmed parents “fundamental right to make decisions concerning the care of their children.” Joining me to discuss the fundamental shifts in Virginia education policy is Nicole Neily of Parents Defending Education.
