Why Now is the Best Time to Buy a House: Navigating Today's Real Estate MarketIn this episode, we discuss Fannie Mae's forecast of a significant drop in mortgage rates to 6% by the end of the year.

It also covers local housing market insights, the dynamics of real estate pricing in Santa Clara County, and the implications of current listings. Additionally, there are discussions about the challenges and benefits of ADUs, recent local housing project protests, and the importance of being active in local government decisions.

What do you get when you mix Gen X slacker spirit, a startup sports league on wheels, and a 25-year-old Deadhead-turned-front office exec? Welcome to the wild world of Roller Hockey International (RHI) — and the improbable story of the San Jose Rhinos. Brad Porteus, former GM of the Rhinos and author of the rollicking new memoir "Roll With It: A Trip Back to the '90s - Gen X Style," joins us to unpack one of the most absurd, glorious, and ultimately short-lived chapters in modern American pro sports history. RHI burst onto the scene in the early 1990s during the inline skating craze, promising a legit summer hockey league full of high-speed thrills and low-rent spectacle. What it delivered was equal parts innovation and chaos. Porteus was there from the beginning — drafting players who could barely skate; marketing a new team, league and sport on a shoestring budget; and helping San Jose win an unlikely Murphy Cup championship in only its second season (1995). But Roll With It is about more than sports. It's also a love letter to the analog '90s, a memoir of coming of age in an ascendant Silicon Valley, and a tribute to the resilient, underdog ethos of Generation X. Porteus brings us into a time before social media, when careers were launched on little more than a mixtape, a road map, and the blind faith that you could figure it out. + + +    SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable "Good Seats" Store: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/good-seats-still-avalable?ref_id=35106 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!):    "Roll With It: A Trip Back to the '90s - Gen X Style": https://amzn.to/4kEUKyT   SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!): Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats   Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old Fort Baseball Co.

Monday - A Faith That Meets Adversity Head On, pt. 1 by Emmanuel Baptist Church, San Jose, CA

I'm back this week with four more shipwreck stories. We'll start with the horrific explosion of the Mississippi river steamboat, the Sultana in 1865. Next, we'll tackle the Titanic which famously sank in 1912, killing around 1,500 passengers. On to another famous ship, the Endeavor. The Endeavor was the British naval ship used by explorer Captain James Cook during his first voyage of discovery which landed him in Australia, New Zealand, and Tahiti in the mid 1700s. Later the ship changed hands and was eventually used and intentionally sunk during the American Revolutionary War. Finally, I'll end with what is, quite possibly, one of the most controversial shipwrecks ever found, the San Jose. This Spanish galleon has been called the "holy grail" of shipwrecks because it was supposedly carrying treasure worth up to 17 billion dollars today when it went down in 1708. As five plus countries argue over the San Jose's treasure, the ethical question remains - what should be done with these shipwrecks?Support the show! Join the Patreon (patreon.com/historyfixpodcast)Buy some merchBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: American Battlefield Trust "The Sultana Disaster"Wikipedia "Sultana"New York Times "Civil War Hull Is Reported Found"Live Science "Digital "resurrection" of the Titanic sheds light on fateful night the ship tore apart"National Geographic Press Release "National Geographic reveals groundbreaking underwater scan..."The Times "At last, the Titanic wreck is left to rust in peace"Wikipedia "James Cook"Australian National Maritime Museum "Evidence Identifying Endeavor"The Guardian "Discovery provides further evidence shipwreck is Captain Cook's Endeavor, maritime scientists say"The Guardian "Worm-eaten shipwreck of Captain Cook's Endeavor under threat from more marine animals"BBC "The fierce battle over over the 'Holy Grail' of shipwrecks"Shoot me a message!

I have a great crop of 16 articles for you in this podcast! ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top ESG ETFs and Companies (1) My first review article appeared on a favourite investor website, morningstar.com. It's titled Five Top ESG ETFs for US Investors and is written by Hannah Hummel. Here are some brief comments on each ETF from Ms. Hummel. “To find these 174 sustainable ETFs, we applied multiple screens across all exchange-traded funds in Morningstar's database, selecting only equity investments that are both domiciled in the United States and traded on a United States Exchange. Next, we filtered the remaining ETFs down to only those Morningstar designates as an ‘ESG Intentional Investment – Overall.' (Read here.)… All fund sizes are as of June 2, 2025. 1. iShares ESG Aware MSCI USA ETF ESGU Morningstar Category: Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Silver Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Lan Anh Tran IShares ESG Aware MSCI USA ETF tops our screen with $13.37 billion in assets under management. Incepted in December 2016, the fund has returned 0.48% year to date, trailing a 1.06% return for the S&P 500 and a 0.86% return for the Morningstar US Market Index in 2025. Over the past three years, the fund has posted a 13.59% annualized return, underperforming the S&P 500 at 14.41% and the Morningstar US Market Index at 14.05%. This passively managed fund tracks the MSCI USA Extended ESG Focus Index. 2. Vanguard ESG US Stock ETF ESGV Morningstar Category: Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Silver Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Lan Anh Tran The only ETF offered by a provider other than iShares that places among our screen's five largest vehicles is the $10.16 billion Vanguard ESG US Stock ETF. The Silver Morningstar Medalist was launched… in September 2018. Year to date, investors have seen a negative 0.21% return, leaving the fund trailing the S&P 500 and the Morningstar US Market Index by 1.27 percentage points and 1.07 percentage points, respectively. In the past three years, however, the fund has delivered a 14.45% annualized return, slightly overperforming the S&P 500 at 14.41%. Like the other four largest funds in our screen, Vanguard ESG US Stock ETF is passively managed, designed to replicate the performance of the FTSE USA All Cap Choice Index. 3. iShares ESG Aware MSCI EAFE ETF ESGD Morningstar Category: Foreign Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Silver Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Zachary Evens The largest ETF falling under the foreign large-blend Morningstar Category and the third largest across our screen overall is the $9.73 billion iShares ESG Aware MSCI EAFE ETF. Opened to investors in June 2016, this Silver medalist has returned an impressive 16.7% year to date against a 5.22% return for the Morningstar Global Markets Index. The fund's three-year annualized return is 11.3%, trailing the Morningstar Global Markets Index by 0.42 percentage points. In keeping with the remainder of the five largest funds in our screen, iShares ESG Aware MSCI EAFE ETF is passively managed, tracking the MSCI EAFE Extended ESG Focus Index. 4. iShares ESG Aware MSCI EM ETF ESGE Morningstar Category: Diversified Emerging Markets Morningstar Medalist Rating: Bronze Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: Above Average Analyst: Lan Anh Tran IShares ESG Aware MSCI EM ETF ranks fourth in our screen with $4.73 billion in assets under management. Launched in June 2018, the IShares ESG Aware MSCI EM ETF has returned 9.74% in 2025, beating a 7.54% return for the Morningstar Emerging Markets Index. Looking over a longer horizon, the fund's three-year annualized return is 4.62%, trailing a 5.46% return for the Morningstar Emerging Markets Index. This Bronze Morningstar Medalist is passively managed, seeking to replicate the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Extended ESG Focus Index. 5. iShares ESG MSCI KLD 400 ETF DSI Morningstar Category: Large Blend Morningstar Medalist Rating: Bronze Morningstar ESG Risk Rating: High Analyst: Ryan Jackson Rounding out our list of the top five largest US-domiciled ESG Equity ETFs is iShares ESG MSCI KLD 400 ETF with $4.5 billion in assets under management. Incepted in November 2006, it is the oldest fund among the five largest in our screen by nearly a decade. Year to date, DSI has returned negative 0.88%, trailing the S&P 500 by 0.18 percentage points, but outperforming the Morningstar US Market Index by 0.02 percentage points. This Bronze Morningstar Medalist passive fund seeks to replicate the performance of the MSCI KLD 400 Social Index.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top ESG ETFs and Companies (2) Now, another article by Hannah Hummel on morningstar.com. This one is titled 2 Top Undervalued EV Stocks to Watch Now. Again, some brief quotes on each stock by her. Morningstar Data as of May 13, 2025. “1. Analog Devices ADI Morningstar Economic Moat Rating: Wide Price/Fair Value: 0.93 Morningstar Rating: 4 stars Sector: Technology Analog Devices is a leading global manufacturer of mixed-signal and analog chips. [Its] chips function by translating environmental conditions like temperature and sound into viable digital signals. The company supplies chips to a diverse range of end markets, including automotive companies, as well as manufacturers of medical devices, robots, and industrial machinery. In both fiscal 2022 and 2023, the adjusted operating margin for the firm hit 49%, though it has since declined to 41% in fiscal 2024. Morningstar anticipates, however, that the adjusted operating margin for Analog Devices could reach 50% by fiscal 2028, bolstered by a projected 9% average annual growth in sales. Considering Morningstar's current fair value estimate of $245 per share, projections for fiscal 2025 are in line with a 3% free cash flow yield. At a recent $226.68 per share, Analog Devices was trading at a 7% discount to Morningstar's fair value estimate. 2. NXP Semiconductors NXPI Morningstar Economic Moat Rating: Wide Price/Fair Value: 0.76 Morningstar Rating: 4 stars Sector: Technology NXP Semiconductors is a prominent player among automotive semiconductor manufacturers. Like Analog Devices, the firm's expertise is not limited solely to automotive chipmaking, as it also sells to the mobile, communications infrastructure, and industrial markets. Moreover, through enabling near-field communication, or NFC, NXP Semiconductors powers the mobile wallet offerings of multiple high-profile clients, the likes of which include Google GOOGL and Apple AAPL. Although the firm lost 5.0% in revenue in 2024 and Morningstar models an 8.5% decrease in revenue this year amid tariff-related market challenges, Morningstar anticipates a recovery by 2026. Indeed, Morningstar models indicate that NXP Semiconductors' revenue could increase 6% in 2026 as EV designs call for an increasing proportion of chips embedded into their systems. Morningstar's fair value estimate for NXP Semiconductors currently sits at $280 per share, indicating a 6% free cash flow yield for 2025. At a recent $212.40 per share, NXP Semiconductors was trading at a 24% discount to Morningstar's fair value estimate.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- More Top ESG ETFs and Companies (3) My third article brings us back to a favourite sector for ethical and sustainable investors. The article is titled 3 Alternative Energy Stocks to Watch Amid Escalated Tariff Uncertainty and was found on zacks.com and is by analyst Aparajita Dutta. Her article is a comprehensive review and analysis of the industry and a few of its leading companies. Here are some quotes by Ms. Dutta from her article. “The Alternative Energy Industry has outperformed its sector as well as the Zacks S&P 500 composite over the past year. The stocks in this industry have collectively surged 41.9% in the past year against the Oils-Energy sector's 9.8% decline. The Zacks S&P 500 composite has gained 11.7% in the same time frame… 1. Ormat Technologies ORA Based in Reno, NV, the company is primarily engaged in the geothermal energy power business. On May 27, 2025, Ormat Technologies announced a $62 million Hybrid Tax Equity partnership with Morgan Stanley Renewables to support its Lower Rio and Arrowleaf energy storage and solar projects, expected to be operational by the end of 2025. This innovative financing will help Ormat monetize $160 million in tax benefits in 2025, boosting profitability and supporting its long-term energy storage growth strategy. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the company's 2025 sales implies an improvement of 8.4% from the previous year's estimated figure. The stock boasts a long-term (three-to-five years) earnings growth rate of 10%. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). Ormat Technologies, Inc. (ORA): Free Stock Analysis Report. 2. Standard Lithium SLI Based in Vancouver, Canada, Standard Lithium is a technology and lithium development company. Its flagship project is located in southern Arkansas, where it is engaged in the testing and proving of the commercial viability of lithium extraction. On May 29, 2025, it was announced that Smackover Lithium, a joint venture between Standard Lithium and Equinor, has secured AOGC approval for a 2.5% lithium royalty rate for Phase I of its South West Arkansas Project, marking the first such approval in the state. This milestone sets a regulatory precedent and enhances Standard Lithium's pathway to commercial production by 2028. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Standard Lithium's 2025 bottom line is pegged at a loss of 8 cents per share, suggesting a solid improvement from the year-ago quarter's reported loss of 13 cents. The bottom line beat the consensus estimate in the last reported quarter. Standard Lithium currently carries a Zacks Rank #2. Standard Lithium Ltd. (SLI): Free Stock Analysis Report. 3. Bloom Energy BE.VI Based in San Jose, CA, the company generates and distributes renewable energy. On April 30, 2025, Bloom Energy posted its first-quarter 2025 results. Revenues of $326 million reflected an increase of 38.6% year over year. Bloom Energy's gross margin was 27.2%, reflecting a 110 basis points improvement over last year's reported figure. The stock holds a long-term earnings growth rate of 24.4%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 sales implies an improvement of 19.3% from the previous year's reported figure. The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Bloom Energy Corporation (BE): Free Stock Analysis Report.” End quotes ------------------------------------------------------------- More articles of interest from around the world for ethical and sustainable investors 1.

The federal “Take It Down Act,” signed into law last month, has been hailed as a major step in protecting victims of revenge porn and deepfakes. It passed both chambers of Congress nearly unanimously, but First Amendment watchers have concerns. We take a closer look at the new statute, along with new California laws that also criminalize sexually explicit deepfakes. And we'll hear how you can protect yourself if you've been victimized online.

Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. In the gritty streets of California's Bay Area, former police officer Janelle Perez patrolled neighborhoods ravaged by gang violence, battling not only criminal organizations but also the very department she once proudly served. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “I came into law enforcement with purpose,” Janelle shared during an interview on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show which is featured as a free podcast episode available on their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and many podcast platforms. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. “But I never imagined that the hardest fight I'd face wouldn't be with the gangs, but with my own department.” Janelle Perez is a former Bay Area police officer whose career was defined by front-line encounters with violent gangs like the Sureños, Norteños, and Wah Ching, organized groups deeply rooted in California's urban corridors which also grew into the suburbs. In her role, she confronted everything from drug trafficking to gangland turf wars fueled by stolen firearms and fear. But her story doesn't end with arrests and patrols. Her memoir, The Moral Police, tells a deeper story. It chronicles her unexpected and painful descent from decorated officer to plaintiff in a courtroom battle against the police department that dismissed her. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Perez was fired after eight months with the Roseville Police Department, she says for an off-duty relationship with a fellow officer during her separation. She took her case to the court, citing gender discrimination and privacy violations. Her battle stretched across seven years and reached the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, where she initially won. But that victory was later overturned. “It wasn't just a legal fight,” Janelle said. Janelle, a Penn State graduate in Justice Administration and Sociology, became a voice for reform and an advocate for female leadership in law enforcement. In her podcast interviews and media appearances, she says that the justice system often fails its own, especially when gender dynamics and departmental politics collide. Throughout her time in law enforcement, Perez worked in communities where gangs weren't just a threat, they were a way of life. From the Eddy Rock and Knock Out Posse gangs in San Francisco to major prison gangs like the Mexican Mafia, Nuestra Familia, and Aryan Brotherhood, she navigated a violent landscape that demanded vigilance, intuition, and resilience. “These gangs enforce their own kind of law,” Perez explained. “And when the actual justice system fails from the inside, it becomes hard to tell who you're really fighting.” Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Statistics underscore the challenges she faced. By the early 1990s, California had become a hub for gang activity, with thousands of organized groups and hundreds of thousands of members. Urban centers like Oakland, San Jose, and Richmond became battlegrounds where gang-related homicides and turf wars eclipsed many other forms of crime. According to national surveys, gang membership and criminal incidents surged between 1991 and 1993, peaking at over half a million members and hundreds of thousands of gang-related crimes. In these conditions, law enforcement officers walk a razor-thin line. “When you're confronting people who operate by their own rules, you expect your department to have your back,” Janelle said. “But that's not always the case. And that's what hurts the most.” The Moral Police doesn't just delve into the systemic flaws of the police system. It's a call for accountability, leadership, and reform. Through her writing, radio interviews, and podcast appearances, Janelle Perez shines a light on the importance of transparency in law enforcement—especially when those in power misuse it. You can listen to her stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Her story resonates across social platforms and professional networks, drawing attention from news outlets and discussion forums alike. The Facebook and Instagram comments are filled with encouragement. LinkedIn readers are engaging with posts about her on workplace equity and integrity. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. “I wanted to inspire others not to stay silent. Whether you're in law enforcement, education, or tech, speak up when something is wrong,” she said. “You shouldn't have to lose your job to hold leadership accountable.” Now, Janelle continues to share her journey and advocate for those who feel silenced within institutions meant to protect and serve. Her podcast appearances are gaining momentum, and her book is sparking conversation in communities far beyond California. Her story is about much more than a badge. It's about courage, conviction, and confronting the battles that exist both outside and within the blue line. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. You can follow updates and advocacy through our social media channels and find The Moral Police wherever books are sold.

How can the illiterate read the Scriptures? Through animation and heart-language engagement, iBIBLE connects deeply with both children and adults in remote areas—many of whom are seeing the Bible in their language for the very first time. In this episode of The Mission Matters, Matthew Ellison speaks with Steve Cleary, founder of Revelation Media and Executive Producer of iBIBLE, a groundbreaking animated series that brings the entire narrative of the Bible to life using Scripture-only scripts.Born out of a dream and a deep desire to impact world missions, iBIBLE is designed to be accessible, visual, and faithful to God's Word—especially for people who speak minority languages or are unable to read. With translations underway in over 120 languages (including some with as few as 500 speakers), Steve shares how iBIBLE is transforming hearts in places where printed Bibles alone cannot reach.Steve underscores the growing need for visual Scripture in an age where literacy and language barriers keep many from accessing the Gospel. With a vision to complete the entire Bible in short, animated episodes, Steve and his team are pioneering a new frontier in missions—one where the Word of God is not just read or heard, but seen in the language people understand best. It's not entertainment—it's transformation through the unaltered power of Scripture.Steve started his work in missions in 1989 as a volunteer for The Voice of the Martyrs. He joined the staff in 1990 and soon after had the honor of traveling with VOM founders Richard and Sabina Wurmbrand. Being able to spend the last decade of their lives with them became the biggest blessing and honor of Steve's life. He continues with VOM as a contractor and has traveled with them to hostile and restricted nations around the world, including Cuba, Sudan, Northern Nigeria, borders of North Korea and most recently Iraq during the Isis occupation.In 2015 Steve and Robert Fernandez began an animation studio in San Jose, Costa Rica. It was at this time he began to see both the tremendous need and opportunity of making films for the mission field. In January 2017 Steve officially founded and launched the ministry Revelation Media, which is committed to providing quality and culturally engaging media for the global missions community. His projects include the Tortured for Christ movie and animated The Pilgrim's Progress, and now, he is working on a visual and interactive presentation of the entire Bible called iBIBLE.The Mission Matters Podcast is a place to talk about the importance of our Mission as Christians. The Mission Matters is a partnership of Missio Nexus and Sixteen:Fifteen, who have a shared passion to mobilize God's people to be a part of His mission.

Wednesday - A Faith Not Held Back By Fear, pt. 3 by Emmanuel Baptist Church, San Jose, CA

At just 27, Richard Blank took a leap that would shape the rest of his life — relocating to Costa Rica to train over 5,000 employees at one of San Jose's largest call centers. That bold move sparked a journey filled with unexpected turns, cultural challenges, and remarkable growth. Today, Richard is the CEO of Costa Rica's Call Center (CCC), a company he founded in 2008. With a background in communication and Spanish from the University of Arizona — and a language proficiency certificate from the University of Sevilla — Richard combines motivational leadership with tactical communication strategies to empower his team. Over the years, he's personally trained more than 10,000 bilingual telemarketers. Beyond the headset and call metrics, Richard brings a unique twist to company culture: gamification. CCC boasts the largest private collection of restored American pinball machines and Rock-Ola jukeboxes in Central America — a reflection of his belief that fun, connection, and shared experiences are key to building strong teams. A passionate mentor and educator, Richard is also a keynote speaker and scholarship donor at his alma mater, Abington Senior High School, where he supports students pursuing world languages at the university level. This episode is packed with insight on leadership, resilience, and how culture can transform performance.

Tuesday - A Faith Not Held Back By Fear, pt. 2 by Emmanuel Baptist Church, San Jose, CA

In the fall of 1984, fear took hold of San Jose, California. In just six weeks, six young women vanished or were found murdered — their lives cut short under brutal and mysterious circumstances. As residents watched the headlines mount, few could imagine the horror hiding in plain sight. Six Weeks of Terror is a gripping true crime story that unravels the chilling timeline of Fernando Cota — a convicted rapist who slipped through the cracks and went on to terrorize a city. A routine traffic stop would crack the case wide open and lead to a horrifying discovery.

On October 31, 1984, 25 year old Doreen Erbert, who was eight months pregnant, was brutally murdered in her San Jose home by a masked intruder wearing a wolf costume. Her 4-year-old daughter witnessed the horror while hiding, and her husband returned home minutes too late to stop it, only to find a horrific scene left behind. As the investigation unfolded, detectives uncovered a deeply personal motive rooted in past tragedy, loss, and revenge.

It's Wednesday, June 4th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Christians persecuted in Mali, Africa by military junta Christians are facing increased persecution in Mali after the military junta initiated a crackdown in May. The military of the West African nation dissolved all political parties in the crackdown. Jo Newhouse with Open Doors Sub-Saharan Africa said, “Christians in Mali have faced increasing persecution over the past few years. By closing the democratic space, and further encroaching on civil liberties, the junta is adding unwelcome pressure to an already volatile situation.” Please pray for the church in Mali, Africa. The country is ranked 14th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the most difficult places to be a Christian.  Ukrainian evangelist: Thousands coming to Christ A Ukrainian evangelist addressed the European Congress on Evangelism in Berlin, Germany last Thursday. Evangelist David Karcha reported that Ukrainian Evangelicals have been ministering to their fellow countrymen since Russia invaded the country in 2022. Churches are seeing thousands of people come to Christ during the war. Karcha said, “In the world's eyes, Ukraine is a story of war. But in God's eyes, it is a story of revival, a story that reminds us all that the Gospel advances.” 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 says, “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds … and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God.” American economy predicted to grow by only 1.6% this year The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development cut its economic growth outlook for the United States. The group forecasts the U.S. economy will expand by 1.6% this year, down from its previous forecast of 2.2%. Experts also expect global economic growth to slow this year in the wake of U.S President Donald Trump's tariff policies. They also noted, “trade uncertainty and economic policy uncertainty has reached unprecedented levels.” Dept of Ed. shuns homosexual pride month, celebrates Title IX month To its credit, the U.S. Department of Education is not celebrating homosexual pride month in the month of June. Instead, the Trump administration is recognizing June as “Title IX Month.” Title IX of the Education Amendments was signed into law by President Richard Nixon on June 23, 1972. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs. However, the Biden administration tried to inject transgender protections into the law. Under Trump's Education Department, the administration is promising to protect women's and girls' sports from such transgender activism.  Muslim immigrant used flamethrower on peaceful pro-Israel group in CO An immigrant, motivated by anti-Semitic beliefs, has been accused of brutally attacking a peaceful pro-Israel group advocating for Israeli hostages held captive by the Muslim terrorist group known as Hamas, reports The Blaze. Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national in the United States despite reportedly overstaying his visa, is suspected of attacking a group of individuals participating in a walk in Boulder, Colorado at 2:00pm on June 1st. According to CNN, he allegedly used a makeshift flamethrower and Molotov cocktails to set people on fire at an event in support of hostages in Gaza as he yelled “Free Palestine.” He injured at least 12 people. The victims ranged in age from 52 to 88 years old, including a Holocaust survivor. The U.S. Attorney General's office has charged Soliman with a hate crime. The attack targeted the “Run for Their Lives” group, a grassroots organization that gathered on Pearl Street on Sunday evening to support the release of the hostages captured by the terrorist group in October 2023. According to the FBI, the Jewish group chapter gathers weekly. Maya Bajayo is the organizer of the “Run for Their Lives” group. BAJAYO: “We're here only to raise awareness for the hostages. It makes it even more scary for us that it could have been us.” Amazingly, Bajayo, who has been leading the walk for 83 Sundays straight, refuses to stop walking despite the threat of violence. She explained why to Channel 9 News. BAJAYO: “To show people that we're still here, the problem hasn't been solved, and the hostages need to be released. We're just not going to give up on them.” Oklahoma Governor: "Life begins at conception.” During June, Oklahoma is celebrating  a “Month for Life.” Republican Governor Kevin Stitt signed the proclamation Monday. He wrote on X, “Life begins at conception. We're committed to supporting moms every step. And God has a plan for every life.” The proclamation encouraged citizens to join the Oklahoma March for Life on Saturday, June 7. 10th anniversary of Supreme Court's pro-homosexual marriage ruling The U.S. Supreme Court handed down its Obergefell v. Hodges decision 10 years ago on June 26, 2015. The infamous ruling requires states to recognize same-sex unions as marriages.  A new survey from Gallup found that 68% of U.S. adults support faux same-sex marriage, up from 60% in 2015. However, that support has plateaued over the last five years.  No one shared why they like The Worldview in 5 Minutes And finally, I would love to know why you enjoy listening to The Worldview in 5 Minutes.  Do you like the variety of stories, the reports on the persecuted church, the Christian worldview, the 2 Scriptures, the soundbites, the links to additional information in our transcript, or the occasional uplifting, positive story?  Email me 2-6 sentences and include your name, city, and state.  Surprisingly, I did not get a single email on Tuesday despite the fact that tens of thousands of people listen to the newscast or read the transcript.  Send your email to Adam@TheWorldview.com. 18 listeners gave $4,202 to fund The Worldview newscast Toward this week's $30,875 goal to fund one-fourth of The Worldview newscast budget by this Friday, June 6th, 18 listeners stepped up to the plate.  Our thanks to Joshua in Bolivar, Missouri who gave $30 as well as Rachelle in Longview, Washington, Margaret in White Salmon, Washington, Jeremy in Swansea, Wales in the United Kingdom, and Karena in Eugene, Oregon – each of whom gave $50. We appreciate Dick in Hoyt, Kansas, Hannah in San Jose, California, David in Plano, Texas, Adam in Gile, Wisconsin, and David in Crestview, Florida – each of whom gave $100. We're grateful to God for Hannah in Green Valley, Arizona who gave $132,Genevieve in Wheat Ridge, Colorado who pledged $20/month for 12 months for a gift of $240, Kristen in Columbia Falls, Montana who gave $250, and Luis and Patricia in Kyle, Texas who pledged $25/month for 12 months for a gift of $300. And we appreciate the generosity of Steven in Coatesville, Pennsylvania who gave $350, James in Cardiff, Wales in the United Kingdom who pledged $50/month for 12 months for a gift of $600, Patricia in  Winfield, Iowa who gave $700, and Larry and Sue in Crooked Creek , Alberta, Canada who pledged $75/month for 12 months for a gift of $900. Those 18 listeners gave a total of $4,202. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please.  (Drum toll sound effect) $4,932 (People clapping sound effect)  That means by this Friday, we still need to raise $26,873. We missed our goal of 20 donors on Tuesday by only 2 donors.  In order to hit our goal by this Friday, June 6th, we need to raise $8,957 on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.   Toward that end, I wonder if there might be 4 Worldview listeners who could give $1,000.  Another 8 who would pledge $50/month. And 12 more who would pledge $25/month.  That would enable us to raise $11,800 on Wednesday. Maybe we can hit 20 donors today.

HOW WOULD FREE TRADER REAGAN RECOGNIZE THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION? 8/8 Reagan: His Life and Legend Hardcover – September 10, 2024 by  Max Boot  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Reagan-Life-Legend-Max-Boot/dp/0871409445 The story begins not in star-studded Hollywood but in the cradle of the Midwest, small-town Illinois, where Reagan was born in 1911 to Nelle Clyde Wilson, a devoted Disciples of Christ believer, and Jack Reagan, a struggling, alcoholic salesman. Boot vividly creates a portrait of a handsome young man, indeed a much-vaunted lifeguard, whose early successes mirrored those of Horatio Alger. And contextualizing Reagan's life against American history, Boot re-creates the world in which Reagan transitioned from local Iowa sportscaster to budding screen actor. The world of Hollywood from the 1930s to the 1950s would prove significant, not only in Reagan's coming-of-age in such classics as Knute Rockne and Kings Row but during the twilight of his film career, when he played opposite a chimpanzee in Bedtime for Bonzo, and then his eventual emergence as a television host of General Electric Theater, which established his bona fides as one of the leading conservative voices of the time. Indeed, the leap to California governor in 1966 seemed almost preordained, in which Reagan became a bellwether for a nation in the throes of a generational shift. Reagan's 1980 presidential election augured a shift that continues into this century. Boot writes not as a partisan but as a historian seeking to set the story straight. He explains how Reagan was an ideologue but also a supreme pragmatist who signed pro-abortion and gun control bills as governor, cut deals with Democrats in both Sacramento and Washington, and befriended Mikhail Gorbachev to end the Cold War. A master communicator, Reagan revived America's spirits after the traumas of Vietnam and Watergate. But Boot also shows how Reagan was armored in obliviousness. He traces Reagan's opposition to civil rights over forty years, reveals how he neglected the exploding AIDS epidemic, and details how America experienced a level of income inequality not seen since the Gilded Age. 1904 SAN JOSE
