The Christian Post's Brandon Showalter explores major claims surrounding the transgender discussion, shedding light on new developments and key elements about the topic. 

Among other topics, Showalter challenges the assertion that transitioning, particularly in young individuals, improves mental health and saves lives. He categorically dismissed this claim as "completely specious," emphasizing the lack of evidence supporting the idea that altering one's body through surgeries and experimental drugs leads to mental health improvement.

Showalter condemned the promotion of transgender interventions as medically based and scientifically supported. He argued that the procedures, such as hormone blockers and surgeries, constitute a "great medical scandal" rooted in pseudoscience. He pointed out the dangers of altering natural developmental processes like puberty, asserting that such interventions worsen dysphoria and perpetuate confusion.

Religious persecution is raging across the globe. Christian Post reporter Ryan Foley attended last week's International Religious Freedom Summit in Washington, D.C., and heard from experts who warned about the dire situations in various nations.

Listen to Foley break it all down on today's "Inside Story."

The Satanic Temple's devilish display in the Iowa State Capitol was destroyed last week by a Christian Navy veteran who has said he simply couldn't stand by and let the evil symbolism stand.

"Matthew Cassidy, 35, made headlines last week when he pushed over a red-cloaked Baphomet statue erected near a Nativity scene in the Capitol rotunda, as first reported by The Republic Sentinel," The Christian Post's Jon Brown reported. "He tossed its silver goat head in the trash before turning himself in to authorities, who issued him a citation for fourth-degree criminal mischief."

Cassidy faces a legal battle now, though he's defending himself and his actions. A fierce debate has since followed about his actions, with some praising him and others decrying the destruction. Brown joins Billy Hallowell on "The Inside Story" to break it all down.
