Top headlines for Friday, July 14, 2023

On today's episode, we start by recounting the remarkable journey of a pastor and his 64-member congregation who escaped religious persecution from the Chinese Communist Party, and their struggles and triumphs in their bid to find freedom in the United States. Then, we follow the progressive triumph of the Miss Netherlands pageant as they crown their first-ever trans-identifying individual, a milestone that comes with its own set of challenges. We also discuss Iowa's game-changing decision as Republican Governor Kim Reynolds signs a new law restricting abortions, reflecting on the complex intersection of politics, morals, and women's rights. Finally, we will dive deep into the fourth lawsuit filed against the Kanye West-founded Christian Academy for alleged wrongful termination and hazardous working conditions.
