A Faith and Public Policy Ministry
(Faith & Freedom) A surprising number of federal bureaucrats working in Washington, D.C., plan to oppose President Donald Trump from within the government—a deep state is emerging in his second term. In a refreshing change from Trump’s first term, Republicans in the government largely plan to support the president, a survey finds. This means the Trump 47 deep state phenomenon
(The Federalist) The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) has released the results of the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) for the 2024 school year. Known as the “Nation’s Report Card,” NAEP assesses the reading and math skills of America’s fourth and eighth graders. The latest report reveals something surprising: after adjusting for demographics, the reading and math scores
(Harbinger’s Daily) This week, we marked Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, when we solemnly remember the 6 million Jews brutally murdered in a true genocide. It is a tragedy from which the Jewish people have not yet numerically recovered, even after 80 years. Did you know that this solemn day, along with two other secular days observed in Israel, fulfills
(Life News) Last week, Amna Nawaz of PBS News asked Dr. Marty Makary, new commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, if he planned to impose restrictions on the distribution and use of mifepristone and misoprostol in chemical abortions. The FDA approved mifepristone for chemical abortions in 2000, after a selective, limited study determined that it was “safe and effective.” Since
(Townhall) There’s a mind-blowing battle playing out in Sacramento among the Democrats who dominate California politics. We told you this week about how these same Democrats quietly killed a bipartisan bill, without debate, that would have implemented the successful reading instruction program that has allowed Mississippi students to overtake California kids in early literacy. They did so at the furious
(Washington Stand) In recent times, Coloradans appear to be facing the weight of policies that attack their First Amendment rights. Earlier in April, state Democrats launched a full assault on free speech through HB25-1312 — legislation that seeks to classify “misgendering” and “deadnaming” as forms of abuse. But while Coloradans grapple with threats to their free speech, another policy shift
(Harbinger’s Daily) According to reports, the UK will soon approve experiments to “dim the sun” in an effort to slow down “global warming” (wait—are we back to global warming instead of climate change now?!). How will they dim our sun? Well, they plan to inject aerosols into the atmosphere to reflect sunlight into space, thus creating a cooling effect. Is
(Townhall) In a significant shift from previous years, several major corporations have scaled back or withdrawn their support for Pride Month events. Companies such as Anheuser-Busch, Diageo, and Comcast have cited budget constraints and a challenging political environment as reasons for their decisions not to donate money to Pride groups ahead of Pride Month, a monthlong event celebrating LGBTQ+ people
(Washington Stand) It may feel like the country is finally embracing sanity on girls’ sports, but not everyone has boarded the bipartisan bandwagon. While Americans of all political stripes loathe the idea of biological boys competing against their daughters, there are still some powerful holdouts making life absolutely miserable for the brave voices demanding justice. And on both coasts, they’re
(Harbinger’s Daily) It’s becoming increasingly popular in churches today to assert that God has replaced Israel with the church. Some believe that the Lord rejected Israel, while others see the church as somehow the spiritual fulfillment of the kingdom promises made to Israel. This teaching is often referred to as “replacement theology.” I have many problems with such teaching, starting
