HHS Finds Systemic Disregard for Sanctity of Life in Organ Transplant System

- By HHS Press Office
Secretary Kennedy Threatens Closure of Deficient Organ Procurement Organization
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under the leadership of Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. today announced a major initiative to begin reforming the organ transplant system following an investigation by its Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) that revealed disturbing practices by a major organ procurement organization.
“Our findings show that hospitals allowed the organ procurement process to begin when patients showed signs of life, and this is horrifying,” Secretary Kennedy said. “The organ procurement organizations that coordinate access to transplants will be held accountable. The entire system must be fixed to ensure that every potential donor’s life is treated with the sanctity it deserves.”

Is Science vs Faith Just a Myth?
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
The claim is often made that science in faith are always at odds with each other. This claim is particularly made when discussing topics like those concerning origins come into play. This is because there are models claimed by the scientific establishment as being scientific while the Bible describes God creating everything. However, it turns out that there are reasons why this is nothing but a myth resulting from atheistic influences in the mainstream scientific community.
Beshear Addresses AFL-CIO, Bashes Trump

- By Terry M. Thacker

“I'm Andy Beshear, I'm a proud Democratic governor,” said the Kentucky governor to cheers as he began an address to a group of several dozen attendees at a meeting this Wednesday of the AFL-CIO in Greenville.
Even though President Donald Trump is only six months into his second four-year term, Beshear was the second Democrat governor (and potential candidate for president in 2028) to pay such an early visit to the Upstate in as many weeks. California Governor Gavin Newsom addressed an enthusiastic crowd last Wednesday in Pickens during his two-day speaking tour of the Palmetto State..
“If you don't know me, I'm the guy who's won three straight races in deep red Kentucky,” said Beshear. “I'm the guy who beat Mitch McConnell's hand-picked candidate. I'm the guy who beat Donald Trump's hand-picked candidate.”

“My fellow South Carolinians, today is Day One of my campaign for governor,” declared Lieutenant Governor Pamela Evette to loud applause on Monday at the Smokestack at Judson Mill in Greenville.
Over 250 supporters and potential supporters packed tightly into the old, historic brick building. Several more attendees had to stand in the outside courtyard.
Evette put heavy emphasis on her early, unwavering support of Donald Trump from the beginning. She said that she was “all in” even when others were waiting to see which way the winds would blow.
White House Draws Support, Pressure from over 60 Organizations to Fund AI for Schools

Use of this technology should be very, very limited in Pre-K-8. Books, paper, pencils and cursive have been proven to be far more effective teaching tools.

Some 68 tech companies and associations have signed a pledge supporting the Trump administration’s goal of making artificial intelligence (AI) education accessible to all students, the White House announced on June 30.
Companies that signed the pledge include Google, IBM, MagicSchool, Meta, Microsoft, NVIDIA and Varsity Tutors, according to K-12 Dive.
The “Pledge to America’s Youth: Investing in AI Education” signals Trump’s priority to establish public-private partnerships as a key part of rolling out the president’s executive order on AI in K-12.

Over 30 years ago, this was in mid ‘90s, – pre-internet – meetings were held in Western Montana, Idaho, Eastern Washington, and Oregon. These were consensus meeting – some of the earliest after the Rio Accord establishing Agenda 21/Sustainable Development was signed onto by over 100 world leaders. I was living in Helena, Montana at the time and somehow was invited to attend. The meeting was projected live from Washington, D.C. to each location. It was the introduction of a plan to return the Columbia River Basin to pre-Columbian times.
U.S. Ambassador Mike Huckabee Attends Netanyahu Trial, Echoes Trump’s “Witch Hunt” Critique

- By Worthy News Jerusalem Bureau Staff

(Worthy News) – In a diplomatically unorthodox move, U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee attended a court hearing on Wednesday in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ongoing corruption trial, making headlines both in Israel and abroad.
Huckabee, a former Arkansas governor and longtime ally of both Netanyahu and U.S. President Donald Trump, arrived at Tel Aviv’s District Court alongside Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana. The visit, which sparked controversy, appeared to signal solidarity with the embattled Israeli leader.
Trump Getting More Done with Smaller, Less Costly White House Staff
- Details
- By Mark Tapscott - The Washington Post

President Donald Trump’s White House staff is much smaller and is costing taxpayers 29% less in the first year of his second term than did Joe Biden’s administration in his last year in the Oval Office in 2024, according to data compiled by the non-profit government transparency watchdog Open the Books (OTB).
Trump “spent just $44.1 million paying 404 employees in 2025, making it the least costly payroll since at least 2009 when adjusting for inflation,” OTB said in a July 8 report. “The new dollar total is also a 29 percent reduction from the White House payroll in 2024, when Joe Biden spent $62.2 million.

German and Soviet Statistics Tell a Bloody Story

According to the National World War II Museum in New Orleans, 5.5 million members of the German Armed Forces were killed, died of wounds, or remained missing at the end of 1946. This was approximately 30 percent of the 18.2 million German military personnel who served during the war. The population of Germany in 1939 was 80.6 million, which included 6.7 million from Austria annexed in March 1938 and 3.3 million from German-speaking Sudetenland, formerly part of Czechoslovakia, occupied by German troops in September 1938.
Socialism Has Always Failed, And Always Will

- By W.H. Lamb

“Socialism, along with its illegitimate son communism, is advancing around the world. Socialism appeals to man’s desires to get something for nothing through the agency of an omnipotent State government.
…Under socialism, the individual is given little incentive to invent, produce a better product, or to be more efficient so a product can be sold at a lower price and thus benefit all of society. The State determines everything. Socialism is rarely democratic; that is, the people have little to say about who gets elected to office….”

A group of citizens take action against a county council that refuses to listen to their cries for more transparency

A group known as “Concerned Citizens of Bamburg” sent a letter from their legal counsel demanding that the members of Bamberg County Council defer the final vote on the 2025-2026 county budget due to alleged lack of public notice and violation of state law.
On June 20th, Attorney Lauren Martel, the legal counsel for Bamberg’s concerned citizens, sent a letter to Bamberg county council members outlining the violations of state law, failure to provide public notice, along with several demands.

In his July 10, 2025, commentary, “Calling On The Eagle Forum To Add to Its Legacy of Liberty,” RealClearMarkets Editor John Tamny seeks Eagle Forum’s support of a constitutional convention (aka Con-Con) with the goal of pushing Congress to support term limits for the federal legislature. However well-intentioned his call for our support of a Con-Con is, Phyllis Schlafly clearly outlined the threats inherent in using such a convention to amend the Constitution.
Time For New Immigration Law

- By Star Parker
Last month, the Trump administration Labor Department slapped a hold on Biden administration rules on H-2A visas, which allow U.S. farmers to hire foreign workers when they are unable to fill their jobs with Americans.
The H-2A rules were already stringent regarding requirements about pay and providing room and board and transportation to workers.
But the Biden administration, under the thumb of union pressure, added additional stringencies, allowing guest workers "collective action," giving unions access to pitch their line onsite and making it more difficult to fire workers.
New Film 'Pardon Me: The Bevelyn B. Williams Story' Spotlights the High Cost of Conviction in a Politically Divided America
- Details
- By Owlam Studios and Hardrich Inc.

MEDIA ADVISORY -- Pardon Me: The Bevelyn B. Williams Story is a bold and gripping new biographical drama that brings to light the harrowing true story of a fearless pro-life activist who paid the ultimate price for standing on her convictions. Based on real events, the film traces the rise of Bevelyn B. Williams—a passionate Christian woman whose peaceful protests and unapologetic stance for the unborn brought national attention… and federal charges.
Through powerful storytelling and raw emotion, Pardon Me chronicles Bevelyn’s courageous journey from outspoken activist to political target. Her unwavering commitment to faith and truth soon places her in the crosshairs of the Biden Administration’s Department of Justice, which prosecutes her under the controversial FACE Act. What begins as a movement of peaceful resistance spirals into a high-stakes legal battle—one that tests the limits of religious freedom, government authority, and the soul of a nation.
Trump Should Index the Capital Gains Tax for Inflation
- Details
- By Stephen Moore
President Donald Trump should follow up on his historic "big, beautiful" tax bill with an extra booster shot for the economy by immediately indexing the capital gains taxes for inflation.
There is a reasonable chance he can do this without having to go through Congress. And our sources in the administration tell us Trump is interested in doing just that.
The tax on inflationary gains is patently unfair.
Consider a middle-class investor who bought a stock at the start of the Biden presidency for $10,000 and sold it off four years later at a valuation of $12,200. The investor would pay a tax of about $400 on the "gain" of $2,200. But over that time period, prices of everything rose on average by 22%, thanks to Bidenflation, so the investor didn't really gain anything.

“Get out of here!” yelled about 40 conservative protesters in downtown Pickens on Wednesday as California Governor Gavin Newsome left the Southern Vault building, where he had just finished holding a meet and greet among potential supporters.
Newsome made several 'campaign' stops in the Palmetto State on Tuesday and Wqednesday, no doubt as a prelude to a potential presidential run in 2028. South Carolina, although a smaller state, has an oversized influence in presidential politics in that it is an early primary state.

The OBBB in Bullet Points

In an incredible conclusion to over a year of planning, pushing, and politicking, the One Big, Beautiful Bill “OBBB” (H.R. 1) was signed into law on Independence Day last week. Some are calling it the “biggest conservative victory in 30 years.” Eagle Forum praised its passage in a press release saying, “The One Big, Beautiful Bill reins in decades of reckless spending, secures our nation’s borders, protects the most vulnerable among us, and provides tax relief for all American families.” The OBBB went through several iterations during that time, losing and gaining policies in various committees and floor votes. Here is a breakdown of the key provisions of the law President Trump signed at the July 4th celebration at the White House.
Church Watchdog says St Thomas Fifth Avenue Needs to Remove Porn Producer from Property

- By Anglican Watch

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Anglican Watch, the unofficial watchdog of the Episcopal Church, is calling upon St. Thomas Fifth Avenue, one of the flagship Anglo-Catholic parishes in the country, to remove a well-known pornographer from the church campus.
While Anglican Watch is not including the individual’s name in this press release, he is believed to live on campus with his same-sex husband in close proximity to children at the St. Thomas Choir School.
“Although we support the full inclusion of LGBTQ+ persons in the church, and are ardent supporters of the First Amendment, we believe that free speech requires responsible behavior,” states Anglican Watch official Eric Bonetti.
AMA President Gets USPIE’s July 2025 Millstone of the Month Award for Backing Trans Mutilation of Children

It’s astonishing that American Medical Association (AMA) President Bobby Mukkamala is siding with those who would ply children with life-altering drugs and hormones or irreversible surgeries to castrate them or remove healthy breasts.
The largest medical association in the United States has come out against the Supreme Court’s ruling in United States v. Skrmetti, which upheld Tennessee’s law against subjecting minors to transgender drugs, hormones and surgeries.
“The American Medical Association is disappointed in today’s decision that opens the door to further intrusion into patient care and harmful government interference into the practice of medicine,” American Medical Association (AMA) President Dr. Bobby Mukkamala said in a statement after the ruling was issued on June 18.
ACT NOW: Senate Armed Services Committee May Consider Two Dangerous Provisions
- Details
- By Eagle Forum
The Senate Armed Services Committee is beginning to draft the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This week, they will be marking it up in committee, where they can present amendments to add or strike language. In recent years, dangerous language has been inserted with the help of a few Republicans. We ask you to urge them not to make the same mistakes!
Previous Senate iterations of the NDAA included a provision that would require women ages 18-25 to register for the Selective Service. Senators ignored the fact that women do not have the same muscular and bone structures as men, and therefore, fewer women would be capable of qualifying for military service. Reports and studies have shown that men outperform women in strength and endurance. Even when they “meet the minimum requirements” for military service, women are injured at twice the rate of men, just as female athletes in high school and college sports suffer much higher rates of injury. Anyone sending young women off to war would be using them as cannon fodder.
Texas Flood Claims Lives of Christian Campers

- By Evelyn Elliott - The Washington Stand

Tragedy hit Texas on the Fourth of July, when the Guadalupe River flooded, claiming at least 104 lives as of Tuesday morning. Authorities predict the casualties will continue to climb.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called the flood a “once in a generation disaster,” and on Sunday, President Trump signed a major disaster declaration “to ensure that our Brave First Responders immediately have the resources they need.”
First responders reacted quickly to the flooding, rescuing over 850 people. One U.S. Coast Guard, Rescue Swimmer and Petty Officer Scott Ruskin, rescued 165 people himself, causing Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to call him an “American hero [whose] selfless courage embodies the spirit and mission of the [U.S. Coast Guard].”
Three Biblical Pillars of Christian Faith
- Details
- By Mike Scruggs
Grace Alone, Faith Alone, in Christ Alone
Grace Alone
On April 22, I published an article in the Times Examiner entitled “The Sovereignty of God.” On June 10, I followed with an article entitled “Sharpening the Truth of Amazing Grace.” Grace is the sovereign gift of God. We do not earn Grace. We may be made in the image of God, but that too, is the sovereign gift of God. We are missing the mark, if we presume we can merit grace or salvation by our own efforts or wisdom. The sinful nature we inherited from Adam is too strong, too blinding, and too polarizing for us to truly know God or recognize our own depraved condition, nature, foolishness, and hopelessness. Grace is God’s loving intervention to cleanse, redeem, enlighten, save, and ultimately glorify whomever He chooses. But I cannot do justice to conveying these Biblical truths. Let Scripture, the Word of God, make the case.
While Americans Slept, Into Our Lives The Enemy Crept!

“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for
light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.”
ISAIAH 5:20 New International Version Bible
Perhaps the most pertinent question facing us today is: just WHO is the “enemy” that has infiltrated its poisonous beliefs into our midst over many generations? An article in The New American Magazine, published on March 8, 2021 featured the insights of C. Mitchel Shaw, and was titled The Great Awakening. Reading it again, it prompted me to reflect on whether or not Americans are truly “awakening” to the dangers posed to their freedom under our increasingly disregarded 1787 Constitution, or have been brainwashed to become so “woke” by the lies of the main stream media during the scurrilous recently ended Comrade Sleazy Joe Biden mal-administration, and their almost cult-like and slavish adherence to the babblings of the “gods” of the despicable social media—the collectivist churls who are so determined to tell Americans, especially our younger citizens, WHAT to think, WHAT to dislike, andWHO to permit to exercise the increasingly nebulous concept of“free speech”, that most of them are essentially useless in the fight for freedom’s preservation.
Americanism and America

- By Robert W. Malone MD, MS
... and why it matters.

For U.S. citizens, this is our most patriotic weekend of the year, so it seems fitting to rewrite and republish an essay that I wrote two years ago on Americanism. It is important to remember that in most of Europe, Patriotism is considered a bad thing that can lead to ‘far right” totalitarianism. Most U.S. citizens see it quite differently, and we celebrate patriotism, particularly on the Fourth of July every year.
Americanism can be defined as a belief in devotion, loyalty, or allegiance to the United States of America, as well as respect for its flag, traditions, customs, culture, symbols, institutions, and form of government.
At the heart of Americanism is loyalty to the United States, its culture, and its political structure. These ideals include, but are not limited to, independence, justice, freedom of speech, democracy, the Constitution, our Republic, and economic progress.

Individual Choice vs Government Tyranny: The Debate Goes ON

- By Tom DeWeese - American Policy Center

In the Fall of 2006, I received a most unexpected invitation to travel to Cambridge University in Great Britain and take part in a debate before a 200-year-old debating society called the Cambridge Union. The issue we were to debate – “This House believes that the United Nations is a dead loss!” There was an issue I could easily get behind.
My opponents in the debate included Simon Hughes, a member of Parliament and President of the Liberal Democrats; Lord David Hanney, Former UK Ambassador to the UN; and Salil Shetty, Director of the UN’s Millennium Campaign. The two other debaters who were supposed to be on my side were both pro-UN leftists. So, it was a typical five-to-one debate.
The Biggest Conservative Victory in 30 Years

Everyone knows that the "big, beautiful" tax bill signed into law on the Fourth of July lowers tax burdens for families and businesses. It also averts a $4 trillion tax increase starting next year. That's enough reason to heartily celebrate.
But what isn't well known is that this new law doesn't just change tax policy. It includes dozens of other long-sought policy goals -- what I call "hidden gems." Here is a list of some of the major policy victories:
The law is the most aggressive federal advancement of school choice by allowing low-income parents to direct education dollars to private, charter or Catholic schools that are better for their kids.
