Survey the headlines on any given morning this week and the temptation toward despair practically markets itself. A Middle East ceasefire that exists mostly on paper keeps shuddering toward collapse. A Los Angeles election that looked, on Tuesday night, like a genuine populist breakthrough is being quietly subtracted away one mail tranche at a time. And the United States Senate, controlled by Republicans, cannot summon the will to pass the very bill designed to stop exactly the kind of slow-motion vanishing act now playing out in California. Three fronts, three apparent defeats, all in the same news cycle.

The believer is given a different vantage point, and it is not naive optimism. Scripture does not promise that the news will be good. It promises something far stranger and far sturdier, that the God who numbers the hairs on our heads also removes kings and raises them up, and that the very things plotted for evil are routinely the raw material He uses for good.

On Tuesday, CNN held another California Gubernatorial debate. Some of the candidates were awful, especially Antonio Villaraigosa and Katie Porter. Others did okay.

Xavier Becerra and Steve Hilton looked the best. We learned three things from the debate:

1. Legacy media is going to let Becerra off the hook for his various scandals.

2. Katie Porter let it slip that illegal aliens are replacing the American citizens who are leaving.

3. Steve Hilton hit Becerra hard, but perhaps too late in the debate.

It will be an interesting four weeks until the election on June 2.

The Trump administration is preparing to climb down off a tree it spent two months sawing at. According to Axios reporting, the White House is drafting an executive action that would carve out a path for federal agencies to resume using Anthropic’s artificial intelligence systems, including the company’s most advanced model, Mythos, despite the Pentagon’s earlier designation of Anthropic as a “supply chain risk to national security.”

One source involved in the discussions described the maneuvering, saying the White House is looking for a way to “save face and bring em back in.”
