by Suzanne Bowdey |
Elon Musk may be stepping down as the public face of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), but his fingerprints certainly remain. Early this week, the president will finally be sending a rescissions package to Congress that makes the first wave of DOGE cuts permanent. And while people will debate long and hard whether the eclectic space genius was the right man for the job, taxpayers may soon have 9.4 billion reasons to be grateful. |

PERKINS: Absent Truth, Fairness in Health Care Is Compromised |
by Tony Perkins |
In Isaiah chapter 59, the prophet lamented a troubling condition in his day, declaring: "Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands afar off; for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter." Isaiah recognized that without truth, integrity, justice, and fairness become unattainable. When truth collapses, genuine justice is compromised. This insight resonates powerfully today when considering recent claims made by Democratic lawmakers regarding the reconciliation bill that targets waste, fraud, and abuse in Medicaid. |

SCOTUS Slows Judicial Overreach in Environmental Cases as Ire Grows over Universal Injunctions |
by S.A. McCarthy |
A recent decision handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court has curbed some judicial overreach and continued a thread previously taken up by the nation's highest court regarding the relationship between judicial interpretations and the authority of government agencies. In Seven County Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County, decided Thursday, the Supreme Court vacated a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit which had itself vacated a decision by the U.S. Surface Transportation Board (STB) that granted permission for construction of a railroad. |

Remember: Satan Is the Enemy. Sinners Are the Mission Field. |
by Sarah Holliday |
To excel as a driver, you must resist the grip of road rage. To thrive as a teacher, you need deep knowledge paired with unwavering patience for your students. To communicate effectively, you must think carefully and meet people where they are. Yet, in today's society, we're plagued by tunnel-visioned emotionalism. Too often, we let fleeting feelings steer our actions. Worse still, many allow emotions to shape their perception of reality itself. This is a dangerous path - often a one-way ticket to chaos. |
