A Faith and Public Policy Ministry
(Washington Stand) Last week, U.S. District Judge Ana C. Reyes, a Biden appointee, halted President Trump’s policy that prohibits transgender individuals from serving in the military. To understand the significance of this ruling, we need to look at the policy’s origins and the reasons behind it. Transgender-identifying individuals were never allowed to serve in the military until former President Obama
(Townhall) It’s evil rarely seen. Last month, over 70 Christians in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) were bound, marched into a church, and beheaded. Local church leaders are devastated: “We don’t know what to do or how to pray; we’ve had enough of massacres.” This method of execution was intentional, designed to put terror in the hearts of Christians in the
(Harbinger’s Daily) Spiritually, a significant foreseeable consequence of AI systems like large language models (LLM) is that humans may easily be tempted to begin looking to them as the final authority for truth. Because of their astounding capabilities to rapidly synthesize knowledge from across the internet, LLMs might seem “all-knowing.” We may begin looking to AI as the ultimate, unquestionable
(Harbinger’s Daily) Despite historic levels of public opposition, Illinois lawmakers advanced controversial legislation attacking homeschoolers and private schools that could lead to the jailing of home-educating parents and even the removal of children from their homes. Massive pushback is already underway. The controversial bill, HB2827, also known as The Homeschool Act, was approved this week by the Illinois House of Representatives’
(The Federalist) In 2024, California Gov. Gavin Newsom proudly made California the first state to offer medical care for people who entered the country illegally and reside in the Golden State. However, the cost, estimated at almost $8 billion, is being paid by all taxpayers, not just Californians. Do people in Texas, North Carolina, and hyper-taxed Illinois want to fund California’s 700,000 illegal
(The Federalist) Only 10 days into President Donald Trump’s second term it’s abundantly clear that Christians who opposed his presence in the White House and condemned their brethren for supporting it have some repenting to do. Never Trumpers spent the last decade weaponizing their faith to demonize Christian Trump supporters. By the time the 2024 election rolled around, they had
(Life News) Vice President JD Vance delivered his inaugural public address at the 52nd annual March for Life rally in Washington, D.C. today. In his speech, Vance celebrated the pro-life movement’s recent achievements, notably the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. He praised President Donald Trump’s role in appointing pro-life judges and pardoning two dozen pro-life activists
(Harbinger’s Daily) Public schools in America allow Planned Parenthood access to the youngest of children in order to push their hyper-sexual, destructive agenda. They justify perversion and deceptively use terms like health, science, and “age appropriate;” and with the help of tax dollars, they have exposed kids to pornography, homosexuality, sexual experimentation and of course, abortion as they normalize unrestrained
(Washington Stand) Last week began in the Capitol Rotunda with President Donald Trump taking the oath of office to become the 47th president of the United States. Over on MSNBC, Rachel Maddow and Joy Reid — offering color commentary — lamented the occasion and asked, “How is this happening in America?” I found that question a bit amusing, not out
(PJ Media) In 2022, states received $189 billion in funding for primary and secondary schools. The funding was supposed to go to programs that would allow kids to make up for the lost learning they were forced to experience during the pandemic. Standardized test scores had fallen to levels not seen in forty years or more. The infusion of cash
