When media headlines scream "50% increase in sepsis" following Texas pro-life legislation, it's time to look beyond the percentages and examine the actual numbers. In this eye-opening episode, we're joined by Dr. Michael New who methodically dismantles a recent ProPublica report claiming Texas women face increased dangers since abortion restrictions were enacted.

The truth? The much-publicized "crisis" amounts to just 28 additional sepsis cases annually out of approximately 400,000 births in Texas – a statistical footnote being weaponized to undermine life-affirming legislation. Meanwhile, a study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association confirms these same laws have saved over 22,000 lives.

We dive deep into how statistical manipulation creates misleading narratives around pro-life victories. This discussion equips you with the factual ammunition needed when confronting exaggerated claims about pro-life legislation.

Perhaps most surprisingly, we explore a medical breakthrough rarely covered in mainstream reporting: abortion pill reversal. Dr. New explains how women who take the first pill in a chemical abortion regimen can often reverse the process through progesterone treatments, resulting in hundreds of healthy births.

The conversation expands to examine promising pro-life developments at the federal level, including the reinstatement of the Hyde Amendment and Mexico City Policy, plus new appointees who support regulation of dangerous chemical abortion pills currently being distributed through mail without proper medical supervision.

Whether you're passionate about defending life or simply concerned about media integrity, this episode provides essential context missing from today's headlines. Share this information with friends and family to ensure the truth about pro-life legislation isn't buried beneath misleading statistics.

A stunning revelation awaits those who believe they know American history: our Revolution both began and ended through the courage of Black Patriots. The first martyr for liberty was Crispus Attucks at the Boston Massacre, while the crucial intelligence that secured victory at Yorktown came from James Armistead Lafayette, America's first double spy.

This eye-opening conversation with author Patrick Poole challenges everything most Americans learned in school. The Revolutionary War wasn't simply fought by "a bunch of rich white guys" – hundreds of Black Patriots served at pivotal battles including Bunker Hill, where commanders formally recognized Salem Poor's exceptional bravery. Prince Estabrook was wounded at Lexington Green during "the shot heard round the world" and continued fighting until the British evacuated New York in 1783. At Valley Forge, when Washington struggled to maintain any army at all, over 50 Black Patriots gave their lives. By the Battle of Monmouth, more than 700 Black soldiers stood in formation.

Perhaps most surprising is the post-Civil War revelation that every Republican Party in Southern states was founded primarily by Black Americans. In Texas, the party began on July 4, 1868, established by 150 Black and 20 white citizens. By 1876, at least a thousand Black elected officials had served across America – facts deliberately buried through racist historical revisionism championed by figures like President Woodrow Wilson.

This historical amnesia has profound consequences. For Black Americans, it robs them of their rightful heritage in building the nation. For all Americans, it creates false narratives that divide rather than unite. As Patrick Poole notes while discussing his book "Black Patriots: Recovering a Lost History of the American Revolution," these stories prove Black Americans "are not strangers here. This is something their ancestors fought and, in many cases, died for."

Discover these forgotten heroes through resources like Biblical Citizenship classes, "American History in Black and White," and Poole's meticulously researched book. The recovery of this shared heritage isn't just historical correction – it's essential for understanding America's true founding and creating a more united future.

A whirlwind of change is sweeping through Washington as the Trump administration tackles longstanding bureaucratic problems with remarkable speed and decisiveness. The president's recent address to Congress wasn't just a speech – it was a victory lap showcasing policies already implemented and producing measurable results.

The administration's regulatory reform strategy stands as perhaps the boldest initiative, with Trump pledging to remove ten existing regulations for every new one implemented. This aggressive pruning of the federal rulebook could save average Americans approximately $18,000 annually in compliance costs while freeing businesses and individuals from bureaucratic micromanagement. The current regulatory state has grown so unwieldy that the U.S. Code would take 25,000 years to read at a pace of 700 pages weekly – a sobering reminder of how far government overreach has expanded.

On border security, February's numbers tell the story: border crossings dropped to an all-time low of approximately 8,000 for the entire month. Under the previous administration, illegal crossings frequently exceeded that number daily. This dramatic turnaround came without new legislation, proving that executive willpower and enforcing existing laws could quickly address what had been portrayed as an intractable crisis requiring congressional action.

Perhaps most ambitious is Trump's pledge to balance the federal budget. The deeper challenge involves restoring proper congressional appropriations procedures abandoned since 1996, when Congress last passed all twelve required appropriation bills on time. Instead, government has operated through continuing resolutions, perpetuating and expanding spending without proper oversight.

These reforms face significant headwinds in a politically polarized environment unlike anything in modern history. Unlike Reagan's era, when dozens of conservative Democrats regularly voted with Republicans on fiscal issues, today's Congress presents a landscape of bitter division and partisan entrenchment. Yet the administration's early successes suggest that meaningful change remains possible through direct leadership, public pressure, and focused determination.
