Restoring America with Grace Reilly

In today's episode of Restoring America,I sit down with Hannah Faulkner, host of The Hannah Faulkner Show, for a bold conversation about the ethical problems with IVF and surrogacy, the Christian pro-life position, children’s rights, biblical marriage, and what it will actually take to restore America.

We discuss why many Christians have avoided hard conversations about in vitro fertilization, embryo destruction, the fertility industry, and surrogacy. Then explain why being pro-life means asking difficult questions about what happens to embryos created through IVF, why children deserve both a mother and a father, and why adult desires should never come before the needs of a child.

If you are a Christian, conservative, pro-life voter, parent, young woman, or anyone trying to understand the debate over IVF, surrogacy, abortion, feminism, and restoring the American family, this conversation is for you.

Special Guest: Hannah Faulkner.

Allie Beth Stuckey sat down to debate with 20 liberal Christians, and the arguments she had to push back on are worth paying attention to.

Jubilee's Surrounded format puts one person across from a room full of people who disagree with them. In this episode, Allie, a conservative Christian, author, and host of the 'Relatable' podcast, was that one person.

I'm reacting to the clips that stood out to me: the toxic empathy debate, what the Bible says about how we're actually called to love, and the abortion exchange, which went about as you'd expect.

These conversations are worth having and worth taking seriously.

They've tried to abolish the Electoral College over 700 times. They failed every single time. So they stopped asking.

Right now, 18 states have quietly agreed to hand their electoral votes to the national popular vote winner, no matter who their own state chose. They're already 82% of the way to making it happen, and most Americans have no idea.

The Founding Fathers didn't just skip building a democracy. They read history, saw what happened when pure majority rule took over, and built something different on purpose. So why does every politician and news anchor keep calling it "our democracy"?

That phrase didn't sneak into the vocabulary by accident. It's deliberate. And it's showing up alongside real policy pushes to undo the structures the founders put in place specifically to protect against mob rule.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the actual difference between a democracy and a constitutional republic, what the historical record shows about majority rule, and why understanding the distinction matters a lot right now, particularly heading into tomorrow's episode on the Electoral College.

Virginia redistricting is happening right now, and most people have no idea what Governor Abigail Spanberger just signed into law.

She won the Virginia governor's race by 15 points running as a moderate who explicitly promised no redistricting. Three months later, she signed HB29, one of the most gerrymandered maps in the country, and is now polling as the most unpopular Virginia governor in 30 years.

In this episode, I walk through Spanberger's first 93 days: the Virginia redistricting reversal she swore wouldn't happen, her refusal to honor an ICE detainer for a man with over 30 arrests, 50+ new taxes proposed in her first weeks in office, and the bill she just signed handing Virginia's electoral votes to whoever wins the national popular vote, not who Virginians actually voted for.

I'm getting married in a few months. I'm not afraid of proving I'm a citizen. I'm afraid of elections no one trusts.

In this episode, I cover where the SAVE America Act actually stands right now, what Senator Mike Lee is saying about the Senate GOP's moment of accountability, and why the left's "69 million women will be disenfranchised..." argument is just not true. I break down why 83% of Americans support voter ID — Republicans, Democrats, every demographic — and why Congress still hasn't passed it.

Common sense shouldn't be this hard. The House did its job. The courts confirmed only Congress can act. The Senate needs to move.

Our culture has steadily walked away from God and towards the cold embrace of secular leftism. The family has suffered tremendously as a result.

From attacks on marriage and parents to the increase of abortion and divorce, we have watched the once celebrated nuclear family fade into rarity.

Family is central to the stability of both individuals and society as a whole. Creating strong families is beneficial to everyone, and is what we hope everyone gets to experience in their own way.

Marxism's founders advocated for "The abolition of the family!" when they established and promoted their ideology. Sadly, this value was embraced by the communist and socialist leaders that followed. It has been embraced by the Marxist left in our country today.

In today's episode, I walk through 4 ways this is playing out in America right now and where we can see patterns in history.

We break down the state's attempts to jeopardize parent's custody, the Marxist roots of American public education system, Bella Dodd — a Communist Party member who testified to Congress that communists were specifically sent to infiltrate schools and seminaries, and much more.

Some Christians think Jesus would be a socialist. Here are 7 reasons why that couldn't be further from the truth.

Socialism sounds compassionate on the surface. Share everything, help everyone, equality for all. But when you actually trace Marxism through to its end, the fruit is rotten every single time. Today I'm walking through 7 reasons why Christianity and Marxism are completely incompatible, in principle and in practice.

We'll look at what the Bible actually says about generosity (and why it debunks the case for socialism), what Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Kim Il-sung said about Christianity in their own words, and the history of how communist regimes persecuted and killed Christians across the world.

Grace Stuart has spent years helping women recognize and escape abuse. But when she started speaking out as a conservative, she was met with the exact tactics she teaches survivors to identify from the people she was simply trying to help. She argues that there many key parallels between the political left the tactics of abusers.

On this episode of Restoring America, Grace Reilly sits down with Grace Stuart, a domestic violence advocate and host of the Why She Stayed podcast, for one of the most eye-opening conversations this show has had.

Special Guest: Grace Stuart.
