The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, a powerful lobbying group widely known as AIPAC, spent approximately $126.9 million during the last election cycle. AIPAC supported 152 Democratic candidates with a total of $28 million in direct contributions. They supported 233 Republican candidates with a total of $17 million in direct contributions. Because most members of Congress are heavily influenced by AIPAC to support war with Iran, it appears the only anti-war party is the Libertarian Party. Listen to this perspective from Taylor Richmond, chairman of the Libertarian Party of West Virginia. And then listen to the next episode to get a very different perspective on bombing Iran from a highly decorated retired US Army Captain from West Virginia.

The US Supreme Court upheld Tennessee’s ban on "gender-affirming care" for minors. The justices’
6-3 decision in the case effectively protects from legal challenges many efforts by President Donald Trump’s administration and 26 state governments to prohibit surgery, puberty blockers, and hormone treatments for children. Will Hild, Executive Director for Consumer's Research, talks about the impact of that decision and calls out nonprofit hospitals (such as Cleveland Clinic) for using federal funding, taxpayer dollars, and benefits like tax-exempt status to push a woke agenda that includes these "treatments" for minors.

Benjamin Netanyahu has predicted Iran will have a nuclear weapon in "three to five years" several times since 1992. When do we realize this falls in the same category of Al Gore predicting (starting about the same time period) the sea ice melting and polar bears dying? Could it be that both politicians are false prophets? I discuss the Israel/Iran war with former member of US Army Special Forces and the most embedded combat reporter of all time, Michael Yon. Get ready...Michael's views on Netanyahu and other issues may be very different than what you hear on Fox News.

Listen to my guest Tim Throckmorton of the Family Research Council discuss this and more on today's episode. Tim is a former pastor in Southeastern Ohio.

When you talk to people who don't share your beliefs about controversial issues, are you able to tell them the reason why you believe what you believe? It's important for Christians to take a stand on right and wrong, but it's not enough to just say, "That's what I believe." The world needs answers and we should be always ready to give an answer...an answer based on the solid foundation of God's Word! Let's look at two hot-botton issues: homosexuality and abortion. Most church members would say they believe homosexuality is wrong, but when pressed, they don't know why. Christians have long been prolife advocates, but why do we believe abortion is wrong? We must go to the Bible for the answers.
