It's bad enough when a natural disaster strikes and citizens lose their homes, their businesses, their access to medical treatments and clean water and schools for their kids. But then to have to wait years — and more years! — for the well-funded FEMA to chip in the tax dollars to pay for the rebuilds? That's maddening and outrageous. David Richardson, who served as the acting head of FEMA during the Texas floods, and who then wrote the book on the bureaucracy of it all, "Texas Flood 4 July 2025," said you're better off rebuilding on your own if disaster strikes — because you can't afford to wait on the government to help.

Can Christians believe in UFOs and so-called aliens and still be Christian? Yes, said Derrick Warfel, author of "UFOs and GOD," and creator of a documentary of the same name. The devil is in the details, so to speak, and of tantamount importance, he said, is to realize that these supposed aliens are actually demonic — they're part and parcel of the descriptions of the supernatural within the Bible.

If there's one lesson to learn from the whole Covid tyranny years in America, it's that government is not science and should never again be allowed to dictate how individuals deal with medical issues, including pandemics. Unfortunately, Congress has given Big Pharma and their partners some powerful tools to push shots and medical treatments into the public sector without properly testing them for safety and efficacy — and without having to face consequences for adverse impacts. Mary Holland, president of Children's Health Defense, talks about mRNA shots, Anthony Fauci, the state of America's medical freedoms, and more.

When it comes to protecting the future of American Exceptionalism, it's the Judeo-Christian worldview that matters most. That's because without God, there can be no God-given rights and liberties. Remove God, and all that's left is government-granted — and remember, what government grants it can also take away. Troy Miller, CEO of NRB, talks about the importance of the Judeo-Christian worldview and the battle that's confronting America right now.
