JAY EVENSON, DESERET NEWS — I have an 8-year-old granddaughter in Virginia who is being home-schooled. Her mother didn’t know she was part of a powerful nationwide trend bubbling just beneath the surface of American culture, brought to light this week in a Washington Post report. The most important thing to her, she told me in a text, was to be able to meet her daughter where she is, academically — adjusting lesson plans to move quickly through materials she has mastered, while spending more time on things her daughter is struggling to learn....

DESERET NEWS — Matthew Perry, who was found dead Saturday at age 54, did not speak about faith often, but the stories he did share highlighted religion’s pivotal role in his life and career. Last year, as he promoted his memoir “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing,” Perry told Bill Maher, the host of “Real Time with Bill Maher” on HBO, that his “very close relationship” with a higher power helped him through his addiction recovery. “I believe there is a higher power,” Perry said, according to The Christian Post. “I have a very close relationship with Him that’s helped me a lot.”...

YOUTUBE — Singer/musician Bird Youmans performs his version of "On the Wings of a Dove," a 1950s song about God's grace first recorded by Ferlin Husky. Husky's producer refused to record it, so Husky took the opportunity to record it when his producer was unavailable. The result is a classic Christian country hit that has continued to stir hearts for over 60 years.... (more)

JUST THE NEWS — Before the Israel-Hamas war began, a nonprofit called Adalah—The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel routinely released reports and filed petitions in the Israeli Supreme Court accusing the government of serious misconduct.... (more)

JUST THE NEWS — The CDC recommends getting a flu and COVID-19 vaccines at the same time, deeming this "coadministration" not only convenient but "safe." Its own researchers won't go that far, and neither will the FDA's, including the head of the agency's vaccine safety office. Both agencies have now found a small risk of stroke in older people who get the two vaccines on the same day, part of increasing global interest in severe adverse events (SAEs) in older populations at naturally higher risk from SARS-CoV-2....

JOHN STOSSEL — President Joe Biden says 24 million Americans "suffer from food insecurity!" News anchors were shocked that there is "food insecurity in the richest country in the world!" ABC hosts turned "insecurity" into "hunger." But in my new video, Rachel Sheffield, who researches welfare policy at the Heritage Foundation, explains, "Food insecurity is not the same thing as hunger. It just means that they had to rely on cheaper foods, store-brand alternatives ... or reduce variety." Really? The alarm about "food insecurity" is based on that? Well, yes. Even the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in its fine print, admits that "for most food-insecure households, the inadequacies were in the form of reduced quality and variety of food rather than insufficient quantity."...

NEWSMAX — House Republicans on Monday introduced a plan to provide $14.3 billion in aid to Israel by cutting funding for the Internal Revenue Service, setting up a showdown with Democrats who control the Senate. In one of the first major policy actions under new House Speaker Mike Johnson, Republicans unveiled a standalone supplemental spending bill only for Israel, despite Democratic President Joe Biden's request for a $106 billion package that would include aid for Israel, Ukraine and border security....

THE FEDERALIST — Last month, Mitt Romney announced he will retire from the Senate after one term. Romney, who is 76, cited his age. That was undoubtedly a major consideration for a guy with a platoon of grandchildren. It’s also true that Romney is unpopular with Utah voters and had no real chance of reelection after becoming the most prominent elected Republican antagonist of Donald Trump. With Romney’s 30-year political career ending with a whimper, there would naturally be a forceful attempt to shape his legacy as something other than a failure.... (more)

THE FEDERALIST — Many people today believe the world is overpopulated and that we are running out of natural resources. This belief is based on the false premise that humans are a burden on the planet and that resources are fixed and finite. The truth is that humans are capable of creating more resources and solving more problems than they consume or create. The more people there are, the more opportunities there are for education, collaboration, and innovation that can benefit everyone.... (more)

EDDIE SCARRY — There’s a simple pattern that the media follow when covering each new crisis that pops up during Joe Biden’s catastrophic presidency: A calamity occurs either domestically or abroad, and rather than examining the cause, the media instantly frame Biden as a hero at battle. Hyperinflation? “A glaring liability that looms” (The New York Times).... (more)

JUST THE NEWS — Kansas Republican Sen. Roger Marshall this week called on the Biden administration and the Department of Homeland Security to provide information on individuals on the terrorist watch list encountered at the southern border amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.... (more)

PJ MEDIA — In 452, an unarmed and unaccompanied Pope Leo I met Attila the Hun outside the gates of Rome and singlehandedly persuaded him not to sack the city. In 1095, Pope Urban II gave a rousing speech to the assembled nobles in Clermont, France, which launched the first of a series of Crusades to liberate the Holy Land from the bloodthirsty Turks. In 1801, Pope Pius VII successfully negotiated a concordat with Emperor Napoleon, effectively protecting religious freedoms for Catholics and Protestants alike from the oppressive zeal of the revolutionary Left....

BOB UNRUH — Amid the Washington, D.C., reign of Joe Biden, whose actions often target and try to punish Christians in America on issues he has chosen as his primary focal points, like abortion and transgenderism, the new House speaker bluntly has put himself in the opposition. Rep. Mike Johnson, newly elected to the speaker's post after Rep. Kevin McCarthy was removed, said, "Go pick up a Bible off your shelf and read it – that's my worldview. That's what I believe, so I do not apologize for it."... (more)

MADELINE CRABB — For a few weeks, scores of Americans have been upset over the inability of the U.S. House of Representatives to select a new Speaker. For those of us who are Christians, it has been a battle we have had to take to the Lord in prayer. To my fellow believers in Christ, I encourage you to look at the new Speaker, Mike Johnson, as a breath of fresh air and even a cause for hope.... (more)

JERRY NEWCOMBE — It’s amazing how, in our age of the great unraveling, we see the value of a college education imploding before our eyes. The evil Hamas did in Israel on October 7th, 2023—leaving 1400 Israelis dead in brutal attacks on men, women, children, and even babies—revealed their true goals. But many college students are defending them.... (more)

LIFE SITE NEWS — After becoming our nation’s third president, Thomas Jefferson received a letter from the Danbury Baptist Association of Connecticut. The church elders expressed “great satisfaction” that Jefferson had been raised up to the “the chief magistracy in the United States.” They also shared their concern about a vagueness they sensed in the Constitution’s protection of religious freedom....

LIFESITENEWS — Pro-life congressman Mike Johnson of Louisiana has been elected speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives. The final vote tally was 220-209. Johnson, 51, succeeds Kevin McCarthy in the role after Republicans were unable to rally behind several prominent candidates this week, including Majority Leader Steve Scalise, Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, and Majority Whip Tom Emmer, whose failure has been largely credited to Trump’s public opposition to him....

NEWSMAX — House Republicans chose Rep. Mike Johnson as their latest nominee for House speaker, hours after an earlier pick, Rep. Tom Emmer, abruptly withdrew in the face of opposition from Donald Trump and hardline GOP lawmakers. Johnson, of Louisiana, is a member of House GOP leadership and a lawyer specializing in constitutional issues who had rallied Republicans around Trump’s legal effort to overturn the 2020 election results....

FOX NEWS — Donald Trump is running for president again in 2024. But there was a brief period earlier this month when the former president was also running for speaker. Only one person has ever served as both House speaker and president. But certainly not at the same time. James Polk was elected House speaker by his colleagues from 1835 to 1839 while he was a congressman from Tennessee. Later, from 1845 to 1849, Polk served as president.... (more)

FOX NEWS — Israeli forces released footage of the "Iron Sting" system launching a mortar bomb to take out a rocket launcher in its first-ever use in an operation on Sunday. The Iron Sting, described as "an innovative and accurate mortar bomb," is one of a variety of weapons being used to thwart dozens of terrorists, the Israeli Air Force posted on X, along with video it said showed the 120mm mortar decimating an enemy rocket launcher. The Israeli army used the weapons system in conjunction with the Israeli Air Force.... (more)

TOWNHALL — Justice Samuel Alito is warning that a recent decision made by the Supreme Court majority might give the government the green light to censor Americans. On Friday, the Supreme Court agreed to hear a free speech case, Missouri v. Biden, that challenged the Biden Administration's communications with social media companies to censor the First Amendment.... (more)
