It's Thursday, June 25th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Cuban Communists keep sick Protestant pastor imprisoned Christian Solidarity Worldwide reports a Protestant pastor remains in prison in Cuba amid concerns for his health. Pastor Alexis Padrón Lorenzo leads the Communion in Faith Church in Havana. Authorities detained him on June 10, physically abused him during interrogation, and blocked family members from contacting him. This happened after Lorenzo expressed opposition to the country's communist system.  Please pray for our persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ in Cuba. The country is ranked 24th on the Open Doors World Watch List of the most oppressive countries worldwide for Christians. Write a polite, 2-sentence note of objection to Cuba's top diplomat: Lianys Torres Rivera, Cuban Consulate, 2639 16th Street NW, Washington DC, 20009. Rubio urges new Columbian president to end illegal immigration to U.S. As The Worldview reported on June 23rd, the citizens of the South American country of Colombia narrowly elected conservative Abelardo De La Espriella, who was Trump-endorsed, over left-wing candidate Iván Cepeda.  De La Espriella promised a crackdown on crime.  g the election, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio posted, “The Trump Administration looks forward to working closely with your incoming administration to advance regional security cooperation, end illegal immigration to the United States, and strengthen our economic ties.” Daniel 2:21 reminds us that God “changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings.” Biden's illegal immigration drove up housing costs In the United States, a recent report from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas found illegal migration under the Biden administration drove up housing costs. The report estimates that unauthorized immigrant worker flows explain  about 30% of the total growth in house prices and 20% of total growth in rents.  Listen to comments last year by Vice President J.D. Vance on the subject. VANCE: “When we talk about housing and why costs are so high, we don't talk enough about demand. One of the drivers of increased housing demand, we know, is that we've got a lot of people over the last four years who have come into the country illegally.” Four years since Roe v. Wade overturned: Pro-life laws in 19 states Four years ago, on June 24, 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. The ruling said the U.S. Constitution does not include a right to abortion. It also handed regulation of abortion to individual states. Since then, 19 states have passed anti-abortion laws. Thirteen states ban abortions in most cases. Four states ban abortions at 6 weeks of pregnancy. And two states ban them at 12 weeks. Trump ends sexually explicit school teen programs The Daily Signal reports that the Trump administration will cut funding to many teenage pregnancy prevention programs in schools this week. The Department of Health and Human Services reviewed Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program grants. It decided to terminate most of them, ending $67 million in grants.  The administration described the grants from the Biden-era as “medically inaccurate,” “age-inappropriate,” and “sexually explicit.” U.S., Mexico, & Canada Bible societies share Christ during World Cup Bible societies are using the 2026 World Soccer Cup to engage millions of fans with Scripture. The United States, Canada, and Mexico are hosting the event. So, the American Bible Society, the Mexican Bible Society, and the Canadian Bible Society are promoting Bibles, devotionals, and evangelistic booklets.  Christian Daily International notes, “These efforts reflect a broader trend among Bible societies worldwide. As major global events attract billions of viewers, organizations are increasingly developing resources that connect Scripture with cultural moments and reach people who may not normally engage with churches or religious programs.” For example, Living Waters, founded by Evangelist Ray Comfort, has printed 2 million copies of the 2026 World Cup million-dollar bill tract available for free when you cover the shipping. They are an effective tool because there is: Instant curiosity: People pick it up and ask questions Natural transition: From “World Cup” to The Cup of Grace Clear Gospel message: Simple, direct, and memorable And it's easy to share: Great for friends, coworkers, and public outreaches Visit the website: www.LivingWaters.com/WorldCup Major League Baseball no longer requires Christian players to support perversion And finally, Major League Baseball recently announced it will not require players to wear uniforms that promote sexually perverted lifestyles.  The issue arose after three San Francisco Giants players added Bible verses to the Rainbow Homosexual Pride caps which they were initially required to wear. Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri posted a letter from the Commissioner of Major League Baseball. Hawley wrote, “The Major Leage Baseball Commissioner writes to me and admits they were wrong to threaten the Giants players over Bible verses and promises never to fine or discipline these players -- or any players for their religious beliefs.” Several San Francisco Giants Christian pitchers — Landen Roupp, Ryan Walker, and J.T. Brubaker  — referenced Genesis chapter 9 on their hats about the true meaning of the rainbow. In verses 14 and 15, God said, “It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the Earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.” Landon Roup was asked about his hand-written Scripture on his cap at a press conference. ROUP: “God's covenant, and a promise that He makes to us, that His faithfulness and His mercy. It's kind of something I believe in. I stand firm in that.” Amusingly, Cyd Ziegler, the homosexual co-founder of OutSports, was enraged by the Scripture the Christian pitchers had added to the hats. ZIEGLER: “It defaced the Pride Rainbow with a Bible verse telling the LGBT community that they do not own the rainbow, that God owns the rainbow.” Mr. Ziegler, I've got news for you.  God does own the rainbow! Send a two-sentence thank you note to Robert Manfred, Major League Baseball Commissioner, 1271 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10020. And send a 2-sentence thank you note to Landen Roupp for his Christian witness and outspokeness. San Francisco Giants, Oracle Park. 24 Willie Mays Plaza, San Francisco, CA 94107.

During a San Francisco Giants home game this month dedicated to the LGBTQ+ community, four pitchers drew attention for their protest of the team's themed rainbow uniform. One player opted out of wearing the uniform entirely, while three others doctored their hats with a bible verse that has been used by some Christian groups to “reclaim” the rainbow. Major League Baseball issued a warning to those players that writing of any kind on uniforms goes against league rules. That, in turn, led to the Department of Justice opening a civil rights investigation into whether the MLB is discriminating against the players' religious rights. Amidst it all, many San Francisco Giants fans have felt betrayed by a team that has long stood by its hometown LGBTQ community. We'll talk about the controversy, its fallout and how you're responding.

Only in St. Louis. A city firefighter is on administrative leave after surveillance cameras caught him doing his business in a box at Lambert Airport — and now food safety investigators are asking the questions nobody wanted to ask. Only on the Marc Cox Morning Show do you get the full, unfiltered story. Then Marc and Kim turn to Major League Baseball's response to the San Francisco Giants scripture controversy — Rob Manfred says it was all a misunderstanding, but the bottom line is clear: pride flags get grandfathered in, scripture gets flagged. And ahead of this weekend's Pride Fest in the Grove, St. Louis's mayor is shutting bars down at midnight after two people were shot and six arrested at last year's event — and the LGBTQ advisory board is calling it emotional abuse. The Marc Cox Morning Show covers the stories St. Louis needs to hear, even when they're messy. Don't touch that dial.

The 2024 MLB Draft class is already having a major impact on the 2026 baseball season. With seven of the first nine picks in the draft already debuting and contributing to their clubs' success, there's a real possibility that the Class of '24 could go down as one of the best ever. The question now is: If we re-drafted today, who would go No. 1? On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman examine the top 20 picks from the now-infamous 2024 draft and conduct a re-draft based on the recent performances of those players. Would the Cleveland Guardians still take Travis Bazzana No. 1 overall, or would they now prefer Sacramento A's slugger Nick Kurtz or St. Louis Cardinals shortstop JJ Wetherholt? Later, Jake and Jordan discuss Rafael Devers not exactly being thrilled with San Francisco Giants manager Tony Vitello after being pinch-run for, and whether he has a legitimate gripe with the move. They then talk about Bryce Harper's controversial triple that earned him the first cycle of his career for the Philadelphia Phillies, the Detroit Tigers' make-or-break stretch in the postseason race and recap all the other series from the past weekend. 1:31 – The Opener: 2024 MLB Draft Re-Draft 35:48 – How Sweep It Is: Devers Is Not Happy 53:03 – Tigers' Make-or-Break Stretch 55:53 – We Need To Talk About: Harper's Cycle 1:02:55 – Turbo Mode: Weekend Recap Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Jason explains how the Alphabet Mafia has infiltrated sports, with Pride Night dividing both players and fans. The backlash faced by San Francisco Giants players who wrote Bible verses on the team's Pride Night cap is the latest example. The very same Alphabet Mafia has diminished the popularity of WNBA star Caitlin Clark. Steve Kim, Dre Baldwin, and Anthony Walker enter the discussion about the Giants players, expressing themselves in a quasi-protest at the event. Steve, Dre, Charles Baker, and Maurice Drake Jr. then examine how Clark has been minimized by the Alphabet Mafia. ​​Today's Sponsors: PreBorn PreBorn has helped rescue more than 400,000 babies, and every single day, they continue that work by offering mothers something powerful and life-changing: an ultrasound.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. You Don't Build By Taking Clay Travis discusses the surge in U.S. markets and corporate growth, particularly the historic SpaceX initial public offering, which Clay describes as the largest in U.S. history. He explains that the company rapidly reached a multi-trillion-dollar valuation, making Elon Musk the first trillionaire, and uses this milestone as a launching point for a broader discussion of capitalism, wealth creation, and economic policy differences between political parties. Clay contrasts what he characterizes as Republican pro-growth, entrepreneurial thinking with what he sees as Democratic focus on wealth redistribution, arguing that economic success stories like Musk’s represent expanding opportunity rather than inequality. The hour dives deeply into economic philosophy and wealth creation, with Clay emphasizing the concept that wealth is not fixed but can expand through innovation and entrepreneurship. Using relatable analogies such as a growing “economic pie,” he argues that companies like SpaceX demonstrate how new value is created rather than simply redistributed, benefiting not only founders but also employees, investors, and institutions. He highlights that thousands of SpaceX workers became millionaires following the IPO, illustrating how private-sector innovation can generate widespread financial opportunity across different income levels. Terror Attack Thwarted Clay covers a breaking news story about a thwarted terror plot targeting the UFC 250 event held at the White House, featuring an in-depth interview with former FBI special agent Nicole Parker. She outlines how multiple suspects allegedly planned a coordinated drone and sniper attack on the high-profile event, which would have targeted thousands of attendees and potentially caused mass casualties. The plot reportedly involved explosive-laden drones, forced evacuation tactics, and secondary sniper attacks, with law enforcement intervening quickly after receiving a tip from a family member of one of the suspects. Clay and Parker discuss how this incident underscores evolving security threats, particularly the rise of drone warfare and domestic terror risks, noting that major public gatherings—such as sporting events and international tournaments—are increasingly vulnerable. The discussion transitions into broader national security concerns, with Clay emphasizing the growing danger posed by drone technology in modern attacks. Parker explains that drones have become one of the top emerging threats, given their ability to carry explosives and bypass traditional security measures. The conversation highlights how federal agencies and law enforcement are adapting with advanced detection systems and rapid-response protocols, while also stressing the importance of vigilance at large-scale public events like the World Cup and national celebrations. The Pioneer Spirit Saved Us Clay provides an extended reflection on Elon Musk’s rise to becoming the world’s first trillionaire, with Clay positioning the SpaceX and Tesla founder as a symbol of American entrepreneurship, innovation, and risk-taking capitalism. He outlines Musk’s journey from early success with PayPal to reinvesting his wealth into high-risk ventures like SpaceX and Tesla, emphasizing the concept of a “builder mindset” versus a “taker mindset.” Clay argues that Musk’s willingness to risk his entire fortune to create new industries represents the core of American economic dynamism, contrasting this perspective with critics who argue for limiting wealth accumulation. He frames the conversation as a broader debate about economic growth, opportunity, and the role of innovation in expanding prosperity. Gay Pride Resentment Clay talks about a Major League Baseball Pride Night dispute involving the San Francisco Giants. Clay examines the controversy surrounding players who wrote Bible verses on their uniforms in response to required Pride-themed gear, framing the issue as part of a larger debate about free speech, compelled expression, and cultural expectations in professional sports. He argues that mandating participation in symbolic messaging can create tension, particularly when it conflicts with personal or religious beliefs, and suggests that such policies may ultimately be counterproductive in shaping public opinion.
