President Trump warned Harvard University that it could and should lose its tax-exempt status. “Perhaps Harvard should lose its tax exempt status and be taxed as a political entity if it keeps pushing political, ideological and terrorist inspired/supporting ‘sickness,’” he wrote on social media. “Remember, tax exempt status is totally contingent on acting in the public interest.” Harvard announced yesterday they would defy President Trump’s order to crack down on anti-Semitic protests on campus. In doing so – the world’s wealthiest university risks losing all of its federal tax money. According to the New York Post, Harvard stands to lose as much as $9 billion. So far, the Trump administration has frozen $2 billion in funding. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Attorney General Pam Bondi has a message for the domestic terrorists targeting Tesla properties: Justice is coming. The attorney general announcing that a 24-year-old man has been arrested and charged with firebombing a Tesla dealership in Fort Collins, Colorado. Cooper Jo Fredrick is facing up to 20 years in federal prison if he’s convicted. And the attorney general says there will be no plea deals or negotiations. Bondi told the domestic terrorists you can run, but you cannot hide. For what it’s worth The terrorists not exactly all that bright because Telsa vehicles come with built-in cameras. And citizens are sharing photos on social media – leading to arrests. So for the domestic terrorists determined to key a Tesla – smile – you’re on candid camera.

A 61-year-old woman was driving her Tesla on a busy roadway in Flagstaff, Arizona when another motorist cut her off. The driver jumped out and brutally attacked the woman. The attacker punched the woman until she bit his hand. Police issued the attacker a citation. A citation? He should've been charged with domestic terrorism. In another incident, a Flagstaff woman was grocery shopping when someone left a profane and threatening note on her Tesla. Over the weekend far-left protesters staged mob-actions at Tesla dealerships across the nation – apparently unaware that Elon Musk only owns a 20 percent share in the company. The FBI is warning Tesla drivers to be vigilant amid hundreds of reports of attacks and vandalism. Both women in the Flagstaff attacks told a local television station they had joined a gun safety class. My recommendation to every Tesla owner is to purchase a firearm, learn how to use it and be ready to use it to protect yourself and your family.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Musk and his team are uncovering the largest money laundering and corruption scandal in the history of the Republic.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz wants to throw down on Trump supporters. Governor Walz part of the Democrat Party’s tag team that got body slammed by President Trump in the 2024 presidential elections. The governor – who was once an assistant high school football coach is apparently still working through some issues. He told California Governor Gavin Newsom that he could kick most Trump supporters in their “Blessed Assurance.” This is the same guy who put tampons in the boys bathrooms. Walz then suggested that he might even challenge them to a WWE fight. Well, that challenge caught the attention of Knox County, Tennessee Mayor Glenn Jacobs – better known as WWE superstar wrestler Kane. Jacobs challenged Walz to a charity wrestling match – told him to put his money where his mouth is. The Tennessee mayor offering to kick in a $10,000 donation.Governor Walz – was quite the chatterbox on Newsom’s podcast – but for some strange reason – he’s hit the mute button.

Obama once said if Republicans bring a knife to the fight Democrats should bring a gun. Eric Holder once said when they go low, we kick them. Maxine Waters once said to absolutely harass Trump supporters in supermarkets and restaurants and gas stations. The Democrat Party is in essence a gang of thugs. There’s no such thing as live and let live or agree to disagree. The Democrats want to destroy all dissenting opinions. When Ben & Jerry’s went woke conservatives stopped buying Cherry Garcia. When the spice company Penzey’s told Trump supporters they were not welcome, we just bought our paprika someplace else. And when Bud Light hired an ugly dude in a dress to promote its beer, conservatives found another way to quench their thirst. But when Democrats got triggered by Elon Musk, they firebombed his Tesla dealerships, burned down charging stations and doxed Tesla owners.

A member of the French government is demanding the United States return the Statue of Liberty because our country does not represent the "values" of Lady Liberty. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt offered a brilliant retort: She said without the United states they would be speaking German right now. America is more than happy to welcome the world's tired and poor - the huddled masses yearning to breathe free. But we draw the line at South American gang bangers and Islamic Radicals who want to blow us all to kingdom come. But fair warning to the French — if the Germans decide to invade — don’t call us to pull your duck fat out of the fire.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Monday, March 17th, 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 Adam McManus Texas university lecturer on video harassing evangelist put on leave A University of Texas at Arlington philosophy lecturer who was seen in a viral video harassing a Christian evangelist says he's been placed on administrative leave, reports The Christian Post. In a video shared on March 9th, Charles Hermes, an undergraduate advisor and senior lecturer of Philosophy, is seen shouting "No justice!" at a pro-life street preacher during a pro-abortion rally in Fort Worth. The evangelist is heard asking, "Do you believe in Jesus?" to several bystanders in the video.  A campus reporter enters the frame and asks the preacher, "Why are you here?" The preacher replies, "I am here because I was brought here. I am here because all the children that are dying.” Proverbs 24:11 says, “Rescue those being led away to death; hold back those staggering toward slaughter.” Senate passes funding bill to avert government shutdown Last Friday, the U.S. Senate approved a House-passed bill to extend government funding by six months, hours before a shutdown deadline, reports The Epoch Times. In an initial procedural vote, 11 Senate Democrats joined Republicans to advance the measure. Afterwards, the Senate passed the bill in a 54–46 vote. Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire and Independent Senator Angus King of Vermont supported final passage. Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky was the only Republican to oppose the package, because there were not deeper cuts in spending. PAUL: “President Trump has pledged to balance the budget. I want to help him with this task, but to balance the budget requires much less spending than this current bill entails. “Our national debt now exceeds $36 trillion. That's 124% of the size of our economy. That should not be a surprise. We're adding $2 trillion every year to the debt, this year included. “Critics of excessive federal spending have rightly argued that we should return spending to pre-pandemic levels. This is something I could support. The spending bill before us, though, spends $400 billion more than we were spending before the pandemic. Spending went through the roof during the pandemic, and it never came back down. And the deficits are out of control. “In order for this bill to get back to pre-pandemic levels, it would have to be $400 billion less. That's something I could support.” The legislation, which extends government funding through September 30, now heads to the desk of President Donald Trump, who's expected to sign it. Homeland Security revokes student visa of terrorist sympathizer Last Friday, the Department of Homeland Security announced it revoked the visa of one Columbia University student escalating its crackdown on those engaged in pro-Hamas demonstrations over the conflict in Gaza, reports The Hill. The stripping of the visa comes just days after the detention of Mahmoud Khalil, a former grad student at the university, by Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Khalil has a green card. Secretary of State Marco Rubio explained the Trump administration's actions. RUBIO: “When you come to the United States as a visitor, which is what a visa is, we can deny you that visa. We can deny you that if you tell us, when you apply, ‘Hi, I'm trying to get into the United States on a student visa. I am a big supporter of Hamas, a murderous, barbaric group that kidnaps children, that rapes teenage girls, that takes hostages, that allows them to die in captivity, that returns more bodies than live hostages.' If you tell us, … ‘I intend to come to your country as a student, and rile up all kinds of anti-Jewish student, antisemitic activities.' ... “This is not about free speech. This is about people that don't have a right to be in the United States to begin with. No one has a right to a student visa. No one has a right to a green card.” Bill allows interrogation of homeschool parents Illinois homeschool advocates and supporters of private education are warning about a bill in the Illinois House that could involve the invasion of personal privacy and lead to government intrusion into the rights of parents to educate their children, reports LifeSiteNews.com. It's based on model legislation supported by a Massachusetts-based group that also warns about “parental rights extremism” and “Christian fundamentalists.” Illinois House Bill 2827 “would create new requirements for homeschooling families to report their educational activities to authorities,” according to the Home School Legal Defense Association. Deuteronomy 6:7 says, “You shall teach [the Commands of God] diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise.” The group, along with Illinois Christian Home Educators, recently had more than 2,000 people come out to the state capitol to rally in support of educational freedom. More than 20,000 people have also filled out witness slips against the pending bill and only 500 have voiced support. The legislation was introduced by Illinois Democratic Rep. Terra Costa-Howard and co-sponsored by another 15 State Reps. under the guise of protecting kids in homeschool from abuse and ensuring they're aware of opportunities for medical care and activities through their local school district.

Country band censored by TV station over patriotic song And finally, the Dugger Band, a patriotic country music group, was censored by television station WSMV in Nashville, Tennessee, reports Christian talk radio host Todd Starnes. The brothers -- Jordan and Seth Dugger -- had written a song called “True Colors.” They had been invited to perform on the station's “Today in Nashville” program. But when station management read the lyrics – they told the boys from the mountains of East Tennessee that it was politically biased – because it promoted America. The Dugger brothers said, “We wrote this song because we're proud to be Americans and we're tired of people putting the USA down.” Listen to some of the lyrics that offended the management at WSMV TV. “You're just sitting there sipping on that Starbucks cup Hating on everything, not doing anything I crank up some Toby Keith Climb back in my truck [Pre-Chorus] “And it don't matter where the chips may fall That Statue of Liberty will be standing tall The best part about the land of the free Is if you don't like it, you're free to leave [Chorus] “But I ain't leaving here I'm an eighth generation God-fearing blue collar with the flag waving And I don't wait for the Fourth of July It′s year round, life-long American pride “And right here, right now, I'm drawing the line If this country ain't something you can stand bеhind Then that's the differеnce 'tween me and you 'Cause my true colors are red, white and blue” If you object to WSMV-TV's decision to prohibit The Dugger Band from performing their patriotic song “True Colors,” send a polite email to comments@wsmv.com. You can call (615) 353-4444 Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  Or send a 2-sentence letter to Jasmine Hardin, General Manager, WSMV-TV, 5700 Knob Road, Nashville, TN 37209.
