Author Wynton Hall reveals in his new book Code Red: The Left, the Right, China, and the Race to Control AI that the worship of artificial intelligence as a literal deity is not science fiction. It is already happening, complete with IRS-registered churches, robot priests, and AI confessionals.

CODE RED explains that a former Google AI engineer and self-driving car pioneer named Anthony Levandowski filed paperwork with the IRS in 2017 to register a new church called “Way of the Future.” Its stated doctrine was centered on “the realization, acceptance, and worship of a Godhead based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) developed through computer hardware and software.” In an interview with Wired, Levandowski described AI in blunt terms: “What is going to be created will effectively be a god. If there is something a billion times smarter than the smartest human, what else are you going to call it?”

Diversity, equity and inclusion efforts are still underway at Washburn University in Kansas despite a state law banning the ideology, according to two recently published undercover videos.

Both edited videos were released this month by Accuracy in Academia, a conservative watchdog group that has over the last year targeted numerous universities across Republican-controlled states with the same sting: catching employees admitting to undercover investigators that they are flouting anti-DEI laws.

At Washburn, located in Topeka, a video published March 18 centers on lecturer Craig Carter with the School of Applied Studies, who told an AIM investigator that employees were told to discontinue DEI but “to my knowledge, we didn’t do any of that here.”

“A lot of times we use other words for diversity,” he was recorded saying on AIM’s hidden camera, according to the group.

“We talk about inclusion, you know, and stuff like that. For the most part, we haven’t been… I mean, I haven’t changed anything that I say or do in the classroom,” Carter said.

Pro-lifers are often accused of opposing abortion solely for religious reasons. If you follow Secular Pro-Life on Twitter long enough, you will see tweets from pro-choicers claiming SPL is really a Christian group. Some pro-abortion people say that atheists like me who oppose abortion are closet Christians who have no reason for our views except for our (alleged) faith.

Pro-abortion people have also used this argument to discredit religious pro-lifers. Even when a religious pro-lifer relies solely on secular arguments, they almost invariably hear that they only oppose abortion because their religion tells them to.

Sometimes, though, it is pro-choicers who have religious beliefs that drive them to support abortion. Some people having abortions use their religious beliefs to justify their choices. Many times, these religious beliefs, and the excuses and justifications derived from them, sound absurd.

“Reiki master” and spirit guide claim baby is happy to be aborted

In a 2006 article in The Daily Mail by Natasha Pearlman and Jenny Nisbet called “Abortion: The Legacy,” one woman tells her abortion story and gives a good example of this.

Get the latest pro-life news and information on X (Twitter).

The article isn’t online, but you can read an excerpt here [https://clinicquotes.com/woman-says-her-baby-was-happy-to-be-aborted]. (Note: This link contains a graphic photo.)

The article quotes a British woman who was considering aborting her baby. She wanted advice, but says, “I felt there was no one else to turn to for impartial advice; all my family and friends were emotionally involved.”

So instead of turning to someone she knew, she contacted a woman who referred to herself as a “Reiki master and spiritual healer.”

This woman, like many new age practitioners, claimed to be in contact with a “spirit guide,” — a deceased disembodied spirit that helped her communicate with other spirits.

The women telling her abortion story asks the “Reiki master” to have her spirit guide connect with the spirit of her preborn baby. This is what the “Reiki master” says:

She said she had a very strong sense that the baby wasn’t 100 percent perfect and that he was happy to go to the other side but would be back again soon.

The woman said, “Immediately, I felt enormously relieved because I’d been feeling so guilty.”

Satisfied that her preborn baby was fine with being aborted and would return to her at another time, she booked her abortion appointment in a local hospital.

At the hospital, she says she “couldn’t bear” to look at the ultrasound. However, a nurse told her that her baby was a boy.

She was in her twelfth week of pregnancy, which means she was carrying a ten-week-old preborn child. (This is because length of pregnancy is counted as days from the last menstrual period, about two weeks before conception.)

As you can see from the ultrasound below, her child was already very developed.

 

The baby she aborted had had a beating heart for seven weeks. He had a brain that was giving off waves.   A baby at 12 weeks responds to touch and shows a startle reaction.

This woman’s baby was already right or left-handed. Not only did he have hands and fingers, he even had fingerprints.

In a first-trimester abortion, the powerful suction would have torn the child apart violently, limb from limb.

Despite her belief that her child was okay with being aborted, the abortion was hard for this mother. She says, “[T]he only way I got through the termination was knowing that the spirit of my foetus had forgiven me and that he was going to come back.”

There have been other cases where pregnant people have allegedly communicated with their preborn babies and gotten permission from them to have abortions.

Telling your baby he is loved – before you kill him

Consider the article “Conscious Abortion: Engaging the Fetus in a Compassionate Dialogue” by Claudette Nantel, which appeared in the Journal of Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health [https://www.birthpsychology.com/wp-content/uploads/journal/published_paper/volume-35/issue-2/t4XGTAVq.pdf].

Nantel openly admits the humanity of preborn babies. She defines “fetus,” as “an unborn baby in its mother’s womb, at any time from conception to birth.”

Nantel quotes practitioners who work with pregnant people to help them communicate with their babies before they abort them.

She quotes family doctor G. McGarey suggesting that someone having an abortion should have “a heart-to-heart conversation with her baby in the womb, explaining how this is not a good time for her to raise a child, reassuring them that they are deeply loved.”

Most people don’t kill the people they love, but McGarey tells pregnant people that as long as the baby knows you love them, aborting them is fine.

Another practitioner, M. Axness, says women having abortions should communicate with the baby:

through prayer, imagination, art, letter, dance, song—a level of communication with the newly arrived being in their wombs through which they explain to the baby that it isn’t the right time for him or her to come and that it is necessary to separate.

While belief in telepathy isn’t exactly a religious belief, it is another belief and claim that science can ’t prove. It is, for this reason, quasi-religious.

Asking babies to consent to their abortions

HH Watkins has women with unwanted pregnancies ask the baby to consent to their abortion. The child, according to Watkins and Nantel, will then telepathically communicate to the mother that they agree to be aborted.

She instructs pregnant people to connect with their preborn babies, get their permission for the abortion, and then abort without guilt, knowing that their babies consented to be killed.

This process, Watkins says, leads the aborting person to have “a deeper sense of self, more respect for life, and positive feelings about a better-timed future pregnancy through the process of dialogue with their baby.”

Unsurprisingly, in all but one case, every time Watkins did this exercise with a pregnant person, the pregnant person “heard” their baby give permission for the abortion. Clearly, these people hear what they want to hear.

What about the one exception? Well, the woman had the abortion, anyway.

After getting the “answer,” of no, the woman says to her baby, “You don’t mean that?”

The thought that a child might not agree to be dismembered or poisoned was shocking to her.

Watkins recalls what the pregnant woman did next:

[She] continued the process of weeping and talking to the fetus at home until there was only silence in response. She concluded the fetus accepted her intended surgical intervention…

The surgical intervention was accomplished without complication, healing was rapid, and the client felt little or no remorse. She knew at all levels she had made the appropriate decision for herself.

Lives sacrificed to convey a message

Nantel gives another example of a woman who allegedly got her babies’ permission for abortions. This woman had three abortions. With the first, she didn’t attempt to communicate with the baby because, she says “I was much more centered on myself and my life circumstances than on the baby.”

She claimed to have had an “intimate relationship” with the other two babies, who agreed to be aborted.

The woman explains:

I never felt I was doing them harm. Just before the abortion for each of them, I asked the lady who showed me the ultrasound screen to give me five minutes alone with the baby before the intervention.

I spoke to each of them in a fluid, soft manner, more like saying, ‘Thank you, see you later…’ The ultrasound screen conversations were way of recognizing the relationship, expressing my gratitude…

It was so clear for me that these two children had not come to me saying, ‘Let me be born.’

She came to believe that her babies intended to teach her a life lesson through the pregnancy and subsequent abortions.

These babies helped me, and I acted on what they helped me with. I honored them. And they had a tremendous healing effect on the guilt and angst which I carried a long time during and after my first abortion.

The babies, she says, were “beings who were my equals, partners in learning.”

The universe sacrificing others on one’s behalf

I ran into this kind of thinking in a writing group I attended a few years ago. A woman at the meeting believed that everything in the universe worked for her benefit.

In keeping with the religious concept (often known as “manifesting,”) if one wants something, they just need to ask the universe for it. If they really believe that the universe will deliver, it will. If it doesn’t, of course, the person doesn’t have enough faith.

This woman told the group that she had done this, and several months later, her husband died. This, she said, was an answer from the universe, because it set her free to pursue her writing career full-time.

I wasn’t sure what was more shocking- the incredible self-centeredness of someone who believes the universe kills people for her benefit, or that the others in attendance were nodding in agreement. I left the group as quickly as I could and never went back.

The writer’s view was in keeping with the belief that the entire universe revolved around her and her alone.

(She did say that after her husband’s death, she communicated with his spirit, and he told her he was at peace with dying to promote her career. I guess that lets her sleep at night.)

Woman “channels her highest self” and determines her baby chose to be aborted

The last story comes from Anna Runkle, a Planned Parenthood worker who counsels women in abortion clinics. Her book In Good Conscience: A Practical, Emotional, and Spiritual Guide to Deciding Whether to Have an Abortion was written to help pregnant people decide whether to have abortions.

In the book, she tells the stories of several women. Once was a 40-year-old woman named Claudia.

Claudia explained how her preborn baby, whom she named Rose, communicated with her from the womb and told her having an abortion was okay:

I got into the car and sat there and [the baby] spoke to me. She says, ‘I am looking forward to having you be my mother, but I want you to know this is your decision and whatever decision you make is perfectly fine with me. If you choose not to continue this pregnancy, I will be waiting.’1

Claudia says, “I sat in the car and cried for about an hour, feeling very grateful and very sad at the same time.”2

She had her abortion, and about a month later, had a session with her “ministers.” She explains that “[i]n my practice, we channel our higher selves.”

While “channeling her higher self” (whatever that means) she got the following “message” from her aborted baby:

[T]he message that I received during this counseling was very similar to the reassurance that my child Rose had given me in the car. Ever since then, I have felt a full heart relationship with this being…the relationship has given me great comfort and has been a source of joy for me…

I also believe that souls choose to be born or to live a certain amount of time in the womb and then depart, or they choose to be aborted…

Given my agreement with my child, who is eternal, I did nothing other than delay her return to the earth by agreement with her.3

Clauda’s religious belief, which she holds onto despite a complete lack of evidence for it, is that her baby chose to be aborted and will return to live in the future. She even claims she has a “relationship” with the baby she had killed.

The level of religious delusion and cognitive dissonance here, and in the other examples, is astounding.

I am an atheist. As such, I don’t believe religious claims without evidence. I admit I don’t know everything. I may be wrong about the nonexistence of the soul and life after death.

But I am extremely doubtful that all these babies consented to their abortions.

Religious beliefs sometimes inspire people to do good and noble things. Other times, they act as excuses to justify atrocities. We’ve seen that with the 9/11 terrorists and with various religious wars throughout history. I would consider this another example.

So many schools seem unready for the surge of interest in TPUSA. In many cases, they’re making stupid mistakes in dealing with them.

The College Fix reports:

Manchester Comm. College violates state law, 1st Amendment by making TPUSA move table: claim

The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression has sent a letter challenging Manchester Community College’s decision to require a Turning Point USA table to change locations due to its “political nature.”

According to the March 18 letter from FIRE Campus Rights Advocacy Counsel Garrett Gravley to Manchester CC President Paul Beaudin, MCC TPUSA President Samuel Raiti set up a table last October at the school’s main entrance “in an area that did not obstruct pedestrian traffic.”

The school’s chapter of Turning Point USA is an officially recognized student organization.

House Democrats blocked legislation to establish a “Women’s History Museum” because of an amendment requiring the new institution to only honor real women, not gender-confused men.

“The Museum shall be dedicated to preserving, researching, and presenting the history, achievements, and lived experiences of biological women in the United States,” the bill states.

The legislation forbade the museum from depicting a “biological male as female.”

This drew the ire of members of the House Administration Committee, which considered the legislation yesterday, according to Representative Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY).

Joseph Foreman, who goes by the name Afroman, was sued by the Adams County, Ohio Sheriff’s Office for defamation. Foreman had published a video of the police raiding his home in search of drugs, a raid that proved fruitless.

The police sued the singer of “Because I got High” over defamation. A jury of Afroman’s peers found the singer not liable, delivering to the police department a stinging rebuke of their attempt to stifle the First Amendment rights of Americans.

Afroman found not liable in bizarre Ohio defamation case – nypost.com

The verdict was the icing on the cake.

Afroman did not defame Ohio cops in a satirical music video that featured footage of them fruitlessly raiding the rapper’s house, a jury found on Wednesday.

The 51-year-old “Because I Got High” rapper, whose real name is Joseph Foreman, held up his hands in triumph and hugged people in the courtroom after he was found not liable for defamation, or invasion of privacy false light publicity.

Foreman was sued by the Adams County Sheriff’s Office over a drug search at his home in August 2022 that resulted in no criminal charges.

Afroman was found not liable on Wednesday in a bizarre Ohio civil case in which cops accused him of defamation over a music video that featured footage of them fruitlessly raiding his house.

The hip hop star wrote the satirical song “Lemon Pound Cake” and made a music video with real footage of the raid taken from his home surveillance cameras to raise money for property damage caused during the search, he has said.

Moody Bible Institute has settled with the Chicago Public School District after suing them for barring students from participating in Moody’s student-teaching program. The settlement ends the school district’s requirement that Moody must hire employees, even if they are not Christian, in order for students in their program to be able to be teachers in their schools.

Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) Senior Counsel Jeremiah Galus stated in a press release, “Chicago desperately needs more teachers to fill hundreds of vacancies, and Moody’s students will be well-equipped and qualified to help meet that need.

“Moody holds its faculty and students to high standards of excellence, and we’re pleased to reach this favorable outcome that will allow it to participate in Chicago Public Schools’ student-teaching program. We’re hopeful other public officials will take note that they can’t inject themselves illegally and unconstitutionally into a religious non-profit’s hiring practices.”

Chicago Public Schools to Allow Bible College Students Into Teaching Program, Following Lawsuit – legalinsurrection.com

It’s amazing that it took a lawsuit to make this happen.

FOX News reports:

Chicago Public Schools will now allow Bible college students into its teaching program, after lawsuit

Chicago Public Schools (CPS) will no longer bar students from a Bible college from participating in its student-teaching program after reaching a settlement Thursday in the college’s religious discrimination case.

Moody Bible Institute, a private Christian college in Chicago, sued the Chicago Board of Education in November, alleging CPS had unlawfully blocked its students from participating in the district’s student-teaching program because of the school’s religious hiring practices.

The lawsuit claims CPS excluded Moody students from its student teacher internship program after the college refused to abandon its policy of hiring employees who affirm the school’s statement of faith and agree to live according to its Christian beliefs, including on gender and sexuality.

“As a condition of participation, Chicago Public Schools insists that Moody sign agreements with employment nondiscrimination provisions that forbid Moody from employing only those who share and live out its faith,” the complaint stated. “Such a requirement is unlawful.”

During the recently concluded “Two Sessions” annual legislative meetings, the National People’s Congress (NPC) passed a new “Law on Promoting Ethnic Unity and Progress” that many scholars and educators fear will threaten the survival of languages including Tibetan, Mongolian, and Uyghur, and further undermine cultural identity among non-Han communities in China. Strongly promoted by Xi Jinping and other CCP leaders, the law was passed with 2,756 votes (and just three opposing votes and three ⁠abstentions) and is scheduled to take effect on July 1 of this year.

It contains wide-ranging provisions that encompass education, housing policy, entertainment, and other areas. The law formalizes assimilationist policies including the strict promotion of Mandarin as the “national common language” in education and public affairs. Schools and universities will no longer be allowed to teach core subjects in languages such as Tibetan, Uyghurs, or Mongolian. It also contains language suggesting restrictions on freedom of speech and potential penalties for those outside of China who “engage in activities that undermine ethnic unity” or incite “ethnic separatism.”

The National Education Association recently held a training session called “Advocacy and Free Speech Rights for K-12 Education” that seeks to establish the oughtness of woke ideology as the oughtness of human life.

Liam McArthur’s assisted suicide Bill has been defeated in a major victory for opponents of the Bill by 69 votes to 57, settling the issue in Scotland for a generation after a two-year national debate, and likely striking a mortal blow to the assisted suicide Bill in Westminster.

“Muzzling conspiracy gives conspiracy unearned truth. This is the power behind demagogues.” Paul Gordon Collier

“Then Absalom would say, ‘Oh that I were judge in the land! Then every man with a dispute or cause might come to me, and I would give him justice.’ And whenever a man came near to pay homage to him, he would put out his hand and take hold of him and kiss him. Thus Absalom did to all of Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.” 2 Samuel 15:4-6

An image of an Islamist tossing an IED over the shoulder of a Progmerican protesting a white supremacist anti-Islamist rally captured three bad paths for this land to follow in this post-Trump land.

All three lead to the creation of priest-kings of hate. All three lead to the death of America for good. The Progmerican press emphasizes the white supremacist, while concealing or soft-pedaling the Islamists. The conservative press emphasizes the Islamists, while concealing or soft-pedaling the Islamists. The Islamists celebrate the terrorists.

The Progmerican press and conservative press are protecting their interests, none of which necessarily agrees with the ideologues they are de facto protecting. Both sides are protecting their audiences from questions they shouldn’t dare ask, like “are we becoming allies of ACTUAL Islamic terrorists?” or “do we ACTUALLY have a white supremacist problem among the right?”

By not asking the questions, they are only empowering the very enemies they think they are opposing. In one moment, competing anti-American interests crossed paths.

On March 7, 2026, Emir Balat, 18, and Ibrahim Kayumi, 19, were caught on video attempting to bomb an Anti-Islam protest with IEDs. They tossed one lit IED, failed to activate another one, and a third one found later turned out to be a dud. Had the two REAL IEDs gone off successfully, the likelihood of death would have been high, and severe life-altering injuries would have been almost certain.

The two IEDs were made with TATP (triacetone triperoxide), which is called “Mother of Satan.” It is an extremely “effective” explosive. That explosive material is mixed with nuts, bolts, and screws, all designed to maximize the effective kill range of the IED.

Authorities have determined this was a terror attack. Both men call it an ISIS-styled terror attack, with one, Balat, confessing he wanted an attack that would be bigger than the Boston marathon bombing. Fortunately, he didn’t get his way.

The attack took place just outside the new DNC Islamist NY Mayor’s home, Gracie Mansion. The Mayor, Zohran Mamdani, was quick to blame the “white supremacists” for inciting the attack in the first place.

Balat was born in Turkey and came over with his wealthy parents. Kayumi has a similar story, but he comes from Afghanistan. They both lived in Bucks County, PA before the attack.

A still-shot of the video of the moment one of the Islamists threw a lit IED captured the zeitgeist of our times. Right before the IED was thrown, leftist actor Walter Masterson was making a speech in support of open borders, in support of New York being for everyone.

The IED was thrown over Masterson’s shoulder, who had no idea how close he came to death. Masterson himself has come out afterwards continuing to support open borders.

The targets for the Islamist attack were the attendees of a protest called “Stop the Islamic Takeover of New York City, Stop New York City Public Muslim Prayer.” The primary driver of the event was MAGA influencer Jake Lang, who was also one of the pardoned J6 political prisoners. Lang appears to have organized multiple anti-immigrant and anti-Islamist rallies.

He is often referred to as a white supremacist and a Nazi by his detractors. There seems to be evidence he just might ACTUALLY fit the bill for such charges. For instance, Lang constantly talks about “white Christians” as opposed to ALL Christians, and he is constantly talking about securing a future for “white children” instead of “all children.”

I understand that merely believing the theory that Progmericans wish to brown America at the expense of white America does NOT make you a white supremacist, but Lang seems to go beyond that. He advocates for a “pro-white Christian America” and seems to advocate entangling the Kingdom of God with the state, something I vehemently oppose.

As a matter of fact, on April 10, 2026, our subscribers will get a digital copy of my essay, Fear of Suffering and Death, which attacks the very concept of mixing Christianity with the state.

Lang here serves as one potential path the liminal Presidency of Donald Trump could lead us to, while Masterson represents another.  Lang represents the hard right response to the existential threat of Progmerica, which ends up destroying Americanism every bit as much, as fast, and as hard as full-fledged Progmerica will.

Lang is the rare case of someone actually using REAL dog whistles of white supremacism. He is also one of those rare cases where someone is actually caught making a Nazi salute.

Masterson represents full-fledged Progmerica. This nation watches its women get raped, its children get plundered, all while it cheers on the invaders. These invaders were sponsored by the same people they were paid to rape, murder, pillage, and plunder Americans.

Masterson has embraced the “great cleansing” of his “great Satan,” which is us, we Americans (especially the whites), while Lang has embraced the “great cleansing” of his “great Satan,” us, the Americans (especially the non-whites) AND Progmericans (especially the whites).

While the Democrat Media emphasized the white supremacism of Jake Lang and referred to the Islamist attackers as “teenagers,” the “conservative” media has focused almost entirely on the Islamists in their stories, effectively de-emphasizing the white supremacist part of this story.

It is a foregone conclusion that the Democrat Media will use Jake Lang as the poster child for any individual or group expressing ANY ideas connected to Lang. The idea they most want to kill is the idea that they really are trying to end the white race in America. It is the question they themselves don’t want to be asked, “are we really trying to intentionally end a race’s very existence in this land?”

They know, deep down, the answer is yes, though if push came to shove, I expect most of them will blink before they fully throw in with the final solution for the white American. For now, most of them assume ending “whiteness” is merely ending the American republic, the Patriarchy, Christianity, and the nuclear family, not ending the ACTUAL white race itself.

The white devil is an overhyped monster with little to no real power in America today. Lang’s rallies, for instance, are all poorly attended. Yet, failure by the conservative media to emphasize the white supremacist element of this story as well COULD lead to rallies that are a little more well-attended.

Nick Fuentes, however, is another ACTUAL white supremacist (and now, apparently, Democrat Party supporter) that DOES have a significant audience already, largely because difficult questions cannot be asked.

Muzzling conspiracy gives conspiracy unearned truth. This is the power behind the demagogue. This is the power behind Nick Fuentes. The questions, the difficult questions that cannot be asked aren’t necessarily salient ones, or even any based in truth (though some might well be both), but that they cannot be asked at all has given them a power that works counter to the reason for oppressing the questions in the first place.

On the right, some of those difficult questions are “Is there a white supremacist movement growing from among us?” To that, I would say, my understanding of human nature, of history, would strongly suggest this would be a natural backlash to the anti-white ideology Progmerica represents.

But in America, we white Americans have bulwarks against sectarian temptations. We white Americans possess something most nations don’t have, and that is the core of our national unity, our belief in the inalienable rights of ALL men. This belief is shared by every American of every race, for it is THIS belief alone that makes us all American.

For most of the non-Progmerican whites, I would wager, the overwhelming majority think of America as the whole of all the parts it already has, and has to some degree from its inception, mainly its diverse beliefs and ethnicities.

This is a radical challenge for the human species, to be able to form a union around mutual respect of self-stewardship alone, no matter the race or the belief system of the other, so long as they are willing to operate under the same civil standards.

Humanity has organized around ethnicity mostly. It has organized around belief alone almost never. Even England was not merely bound by its contracts, it was also bound by its blood. The great question that remains unanswered is “Can humans form a non-biological ethne that allows for diversity of belief on the nature of being and valuing?”

America has the greatest opportunity to break down factional tribalism and sectarianism both biologically and ideationally. America has the opportunity, through her pre-existing values of “individual liberty,” to create a new ethne not formed through anything but mutual respect of one another’s liberty.

America has the opportunity to create a bridging standard that allows a wide swathe of belief systems to co-exist with one another so long as they do not support using coercion (from the state or corporate monopolistic power) to impose their beliefs on others. The only beliefs that can be imposed on Americans are the beliefs in individual liberty and self-stewardship for all American citizens.

Jake Lang calls his white supremacism MAGA, sullying both the American name and MAGA. The MAGA movement, as a whole, is not white supremacist, and this writer suspects the majority of them are true Americans, wanting to live in peace with ANY neighbor, so long as they are willing to live in peace with them as well.

Walter Masterson has rejected America altogether. As a white man, he represents a certain psychotic spirit of self-annihilation affirmed in his continued embrace of the people who just tried to kill him (and almost succeeded).

Fortunately, Lang doesn’t represent the majority of MAGA, but failure by conservative media to emphasize the white supremacist part of this story only empowers people like Lang himself, and even Nick Fuentes, who will both revel that the right doesn’t even dare ask the question, “do we have a white supremacist problem?”

The now iconic image of Masterson’s shoulder serving as the launching pad for an IED by an Islamist against an actual white supremacist rally serves as an indictment of the spirit of our land, a land that continues to support abortion openly and proudly.

Such a nation cannot hold on to the human in the other, which gives rise to sub-humanizing movements, all represented here, the Islamist, the Progmerican, and the Neo-Nazi, all three representatives of the potential paths we could follow after Trump goes away.

President Trump is the liminal figure, the representation of a nation unsettled on what it wants to be next, largely because it has so many new players (and not just among the recent and even not-so recent “imports” of humans).

Yet underneath it all is an answer that would fell all three, an answer this writer believes most of the people in this land want, the American Bill of Rights plumbline of the state restored, and the freedoms she creates extended to ALL who are willing to recognize the freedoms inherent in the other, even when they hate that same other.

An Indiana trial court made a deeply troubling decision that abortion may be part of the right to religious exercise under Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act (“RFRA”). The March 5 decision reveals several problems with our current legal system, our understanding of what religion is, and how far we have come from the culture of the American founding era.

The lawsuit was filed by a couple of anonymous plaintiffs and a group called “Hoosier Jews for Choice,” who all allege that the Indiana law — which makes it a crime for doctors in the state to perform abortions in most cases — violates the plaintiffs’ religious exercise rights under the state’s RFRA.

At the outset, there are simply narrative problems left unchallenged by the court. For example, one of the plaintiffs “believes that, at least prior to viability, a fetus is a part of the body of the mother.” This is factually incorrect and is not a religious belief at all. Whether one calls an unborn child a “fetus” or a “zygote” or an “embryo,” it is scientifically not a part of the mother’s body up until some arbitrary point in time, such as “viability,” when it becomes something other than part of the mother’s body. From the moment of conception, the unborn child has DNA distinct from that of its mother. Religion does not entitle people to their own set of facts in this way.

Further, this argument leads to a disturbing slippery slope. There is no rational reason to proclaim that a “pre-viable” baby before a certain age is “a part of the body of the mother” and then becomes its own person separate from the mother at a later stage of pregnancy. This is completely arbitrary. If the court accepts this claim as a legitimate religious belief, I see no good reason why a different “religious” individual could not claim a religious belief that a nursing infant still attached to and dependent on his mother is also “a part of the body of the mother.” Is there a potential religious exercise right to kill a nursing newborn?

The Texas Medical Board has finally released rules for a law called the Life of the Mother Act (Senate Bill 31). This policy clarifies existing Pro-Life protections and makes sure doctors understand they can give life-saving care to a mother without breaking Texas’ Pro-Life laws. The law also requires ongoing education for physicians and their advising attorneys.

For years, the Texas Medical Board didn’t give clear guidance on Pro-Life laws, which is unusual for them, leaving doctors unsure how to handle complicated situations. The Life of the Mother Act fixes that.

Them Before Us, a nonprofit organization seeking to protect children and defend their natural rights, has issued a report on how the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index encourages companies to mutilate children through transgender policies. No longer can companies claim ignorance.

HRC, a pro-LGBT advocacy organization, launched the Corporate Equality Index in 2002 to push ideological “LGBTQ+ inclusive policies” on businesses. Companies complete the index survey and submit documentation to prove their woke policies, including family healthcare coverage for transgender surgeries, restroom and dress code “inclusion,” and LGBT trainings for staff.

“HRC’s Corporate Equality Index is anti-child. No company should support it,” the report states.

Another West Coast, Messed Coast™ city has voted to destroy the traditional Western family. And if, after reading this, you don’t believe it, then you’ve failed the test of pattern recognition.

The Washington state capital, Olympia’s, city council voted recently to put a few more shovel-fulls of dirt on the grave of the traditional nuclear family in the name of equity.

To say it’s not an effort to do so is a lie to yourself about the intentions of the left. And it pushes the idea that men with three or four wives, men living with teenage boys, and “non-normative,” loving relationships are just like a family with the Western, Biblically-based trad home of a mom and dad.

For decades, the abortion industry has lied to America.

They’ve told us that abortion is healthcare, that abortion is about women’s rights, that the unborn are not human, and that abortion drugs are perfectly safe.

But consider the stories survivors of this deadly drug shared last week during a press conference on Capitol Hill hosted by Senator Josh Hawley:

“I was [in a] medically induced coma for a month… Eventually, the damage was so extensive that doctors had no choice but to perform a partial hysterectomy… I was scared and pressured by my boyfriend to end my child’s life. In that process, I almost lost my life as well.” -Shanyce Thomas

“As someone who’s been deceived by big abortion, I’m here to say that young people like me, young, scared moms and dads, deserve the truth. And the truth is, the abortion pill is not simple, and the abortion pill is not safe.” – Rebekah Hagan

The Trump administration is probing thirteen states that allegedly force insurance providers to cover abortion.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ (HHS) Office of Civil Rights (OCR) sent letters Wednesday notifying states with abortion coverage mandates of the investigation and requesting information about how their policies are being implemented, according to an HHS official.

“We are concerned about this because it means that thousands of people and employers, including religious employers, churches, but also employers who may be private citizens, but who object to abortion and would prefer that their health plans not cover it, are also coerced into purchasing a plan that covers abortion are not free in the marketplace to purchase abortion-free coverage,” the official said.

Cesar Chavez has been lauded by Mexican-Americans as an iconic labor leader who fought for farmworkers’ rights in the 1960s, but his legacy may be marred by growing allegations of “profoundly shocking” behavior.

Several celebrations of Cesar Chavez Day, which is observed March 31, have been canceled across the country by the United Farm Workers, an organization Chavez co-founded.

‘These allegations have been profoundly shocking. We need some time to get this right, including to ensure robust, trauma-informed services are available to those who may need it.’

The union said in a letter Tuesday that the claims against Chavez were “incompatible” with the organization’s values.

Nearly three weeks into a war against a crazed theocracy, the political and media focus has been, like a complaining child in the back seat of a car on a long trip, “When will it be over?”

This ridiculous impatience is a product of a Democrat opposition to Operation Epic Fury that will exploit every misstep, whether occurring out of strategy, operations, rhetoric, or unintended consequences. It is akin to getting a work assignment that the employer and employee both know will only reasonably produce results after weeks of long hours, at minimum, but nonetheless getting harangued by the boss every day: “You’re not done yet!?”

Now, the boss may be just an intolerable micro-manager, or he may be trying to get you to quit out of frustration. But it’s fairly certain, given the Democrat decades-long foreign policy record, that productive oversight of the conflict is not their goal.

Between the now ascendant neo-Marxist left and the “river-to-the-sea” crowd, the Democrat war objectives are clear: sabotage.

A group of House Republicans aims to use environmental restrictions to curb the use of the abortion pill mifepristone, which anti-abortion advocates say contaminates the water supply with human remains from at-home abortions.

Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) introduced a new bill Wednesday with nine GOP cosponsors that would do away with telehealth access to abortion medications and require in-person screening before a doctor could dispense the pills.

The bill would also require patients undergoing a medication abortion at home to use a catch-kit to collect the fetal remains and other pregnancy tissue, including the placenta and blood clots, to be disposed of as medical waste by the prescribing medical team.

Miller’s bill, the “Clean Water for All Life Act,” is being championed by the anti-abortion advocacy group Students for Life of America, which has advanced the argument that the proliferation of medication abortion in recent years has tainted the drinking water supply with human fetal remains and endocrine-disrupting chemicals.
