October 24, 2023 Official Says His State Has Suffered 'Highest Fentanyl Death Rate in America'
West Virginia is feeling the worst effects of illicit fentanyl flowing across America’s southern border, according to state Attorney General Patrick Morrisey.

Fentanyl is “ravaging our state,” Morrisey says, noting that is “in part because West Virginia for many decades really has had the highest drug-overdose death rate in the nation.” And now, the Mountain State has “the highest fentanyl death rate in America.”

Working to secure the border will save lives in West Virginia, he says.

Morrisey joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss the Biden administration’s failure to secure America’s border and the growing concerns over border security given the war between Israel and Hamas.

October 23, 2023 Coach Kennedy Explains How God Used ‘Average Joe’ to Defend Religious Freedom
“Average” is not the adjective that comes to mind when talking about an American who took a religious freedom case all the way to the Supreme Court, but football coach Joe Kennedy says he identified with the word.
“I’ve always looked at myself actually [as] below average,” Kennedy says. “I really had no idea that God was going to take my life in this way, in this path.”
In his new book, “Average Joe: The Coach Joe Kennedy Story,” Kennedy explains how his simple commitment to God to take a knee in silent prayer on the 50-yard line after the high school football games he coached landed him at the center of one of the largest religious freedom cases in recent history, Kennedy v. Bremerton, Wash., School District. It was decided in his favor 6-3 by the Supreme Court on June 27, 2022.
“If you could take a schmuck like me and change the path of the nation as far as religious freedom and the First Amendment goes, imagine what [God] could do with some other people,” the coach says.
Kennedy joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss his new book and to explain why he chose to take a stand for religious freedom and why he left coaching shortly after his Supreme Court victory.

October 20, 2023 Rabbi Scott Kahn on Being in Israel for Hamas Attacks
For Rabbi Scott Kahn, Oct. 7 was a holy day, the Sabbath.
He went to an early morning service at his synagogue and standing outside for a moment, he saw something strange.
“We suddenly heard booms overhead in our city of Ramat Beit Shemesh. So we looked up, and we saw smoke just randomly. It wasn’t a plane. It was just like bursts of smoke,” he tells The Daily Signal.
Soon, he heard about how his loved ones were affected, including his son-in-law in the army reserves, who was called up to serve near Gaza. Kahn heard about one distant family member who was shot, but who had survived by hiding in a ditch. In Sderot, another family member escaped to a bomb shelter with her three children “less because of the rockets and more because there were terrorists roaming the streets of Sderot looking for Jews to kill.”
In Kahn’s full interview for “The Daily Signal Podcast,” he discusses the spiritual significance of Oct. 7 to Jews this year, how he and other Israelis are responding after the attacks, and what his hope for the future is.

October 19, 2023 From Israel: Yael Eckstein Says ‘Even ISIS Didn’t Do Things Like This'
“Israel is a country who cherishes life,” Yael Eckstein says, “and our enemies know that."

Those enemies use that fact as a tool against Israel, adds Eckstein, president and CEO of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, who is today's guest on "The Daily Signal Podcast."

Hamas killed 1,300 Israelis and took hostage about 200 “elderly, babies, children, women, [and] handicapped” in its surpise attack Oct. 7 on Israel, she says, and the situation is “unfathomable.”

“Even ISIS didn't do things like this,” Eckstein says, adding that when Hamas describes its aim as “to wipe Israel off the map and kill every man, woman and child, we have to take that seriously.”

Speaking as a wife, mother, and global ministry leader living in Israel, Eckstein explains that Israelis are living in a paradox right now.

“On one hand, we are as broken as I can ever remember the people of Israel being. And on the other hand, we are stronger than we've ever been,” she says on the podcast.

On the podcast, Eckstein describes the work in Israel of the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews, as well as Israel's response to the surprise terrorist attack by Hamas.

October 18, 2023 Reporter on the Ground in Israel Shares Firsthand Account of War-Torn Country
Field reporter and former U.S. Marine Julio Rosas, who has been in Israel since Wednesday, is sharing details from the ground as the war between Hamas and Israel continues.
"Just before I signed on to join this podcast, there was—I got alerts on my phone that there were rockets being launched further to the south of us, and so that is currently the biggest threat," said Rosas, author of "Fiery But Mostly Peaceful: The 2020 Riots and the Gaslighting of America," as he joined us for an interview on "The Daily Signal Podcast."
"Also, there are some infiltrations attempts still being made, not obviously on [as] big of a scale as the initial attacks, but this is still—it's a pretty active area," said Rosas.
Rosas was in Sderot, Israel, at the time of the interview.
"The more north you go in Tel Aviv, which is where most of the flights go into right now, things are kind of normal. I would say that not as many businesses are open during normal hours," added Rosas. "And also just the fact, again, rockets get fired all the way as far north over there."
Rosas, who said he was also in Northern Israel, shared that "[i]t's kind of the same story where the towns along the Lebanese border have been evacuated."
Rosas continued:
There's not that many people there left, and it's concerning because there's still a lot of kind of minimal fighting between the [Israel Defense Forces] and Lebanese and Hezbollah kind of back and forth.So that's one of the reasons why Israel hasn't gone fully into Gaza yet, is because they want to make sure that their northern and eastern regions are prepared for any response that they make here down south.
Rosas joined today's episode of "The Daily Signal Podcast" to discuss what he's hearing from locals about the Israel-Hamas war, what he wants Americans to know about what he's seeing on the ground in Israel, and how the situation has changed since he arrived in the war-torn country.
