Written By Pete Range

On this week's show Peter breaks down President Trumps address to Congress, why a new NIH director is needed, and how your witness can change the course of human history. We’ll cover:

  • President Trump’s Speech to Congress: Honoring American heroes like a brave 13-year-old cancer survivor and Laken Riley’s family, a bold stance on the border crisis with illegal crossings at a decades-low, and a powerful message to children: “You are perfect the way God made you.”

  • Trump’s NIH Nominee: Dr. Jay Bhattacharya pledges to end the use of aborted baby parts in research, emphasizing ethical science that respects life.

  • Pro-Life Progress: The Trump administration drops a Biden-era lawsuit against Idaho, reinforcing state protections for the unborn.

  • Government Waste Exposed: Millions spent under Biden on transgender experiments on mice—$8 million in taxpayer funds highlighted by Trump.

  • Inspiring Faith: Msgr. James Shea shares a moving story of a stewardess seeking ashes, revealing the hidden hope waiting to be awakened in us all.
