Faced with questions about the devastation inflicted on the country, the face of science refused every answer—even the day of the week, the color of his tie, and the carpet—by repeatedly invoking the Fifth.
Ted Cruz warns that publishing property owners’ names is deliberate fuel for leftist harassment and worse, tying it to celebrations of CEO murders, riots, and political assassinations—all while a million dollars buys little in New York.
In part two of this conversation, Chuck Swindoll reflects on more than six decades of ministry, sharing what he wishes he had done differently. He talks about learning to say yes sooner, encourage others more often, criticize less, and involve his wife, Cynthia, as a true ministry partner much earlier in life. Chuck also discusses the four temptations every pastor faces—sloth, silver, self, and sex—and explains why the need for vigilance never disappears, even at 85.
Greg asks Chuck what passage he would preach if he had only one sermon left to give. His answer centers on the message of God's grace—freely given through Christ, undeserved and available to all who believe. Along the way, Chuck shares memories of mentors from Dallas Theological Seminary, reflects on the value of memorized hymns, addresses the rise of antisemitism, and speaks candidly about caring for Cynthia as she lives with dementia. The conversation closes with Chuck offering a heartfelt prayer over Greg, his family, and his ministry.

In this episode, Jim Jordan, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, discusses the significance of the recently obtained personal notes of Dr. Anthony Fauci, highlighting discrepancies between his public statements and private writings. Jordan emphasizes the importance of accountability, stating that without consequences for these discrepancies, similar issues will recur. He also touches on the need to review past testimonies and statements of Fauci to align them with his current stance. The conversation delves into broader concerns about the direction of the Democratic Party, including the influence of socialist ideologies and the potential dismantling of key democratic institutions.

Newly released audio recordings appear to show former President Joe Biden discussing classified information with a biographer and at times describing memory lapses during interviews conducted before the 2020 presidential election.
The recordings were made public after Biden lost a prolonged legal battle to keep the conversations private. The interviews were conducted as part of work on a memoir and include discussions about his time as vice president, personal recollections and documents he retained after leaving office.
According to the released recordings and transcripts, Biden appears to acknowledge retaining some classified material while also referencing moments when he struggled to recall certain dates and events. Supporters argue the recordings lack important context, while critics say they raise new questions about his handling of sensitive information.
The release is expected to intensify political debate over Biden's handling of classified documents and the federal investigation that followed.
Dr. Anthony Fauci invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination during a Republican-led Senate hearing Wednesday, refusing to answer questions about his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The now-retired infectious disease expert was subpoenaed by Sen. Rand Paul, who has been among Fauci's most vocal critics and has repeatedly accused him of misleading Congress about the origins of the coronavirus. Fauci has consistently denied those allegations.
The hearing is part of an ongoing effort by some congressional Republicans to further investigate the federal government's pandemic response and pursue potential legal action against Fauci. His decision to invoke the Fifth Amendment added a dramatic turn to the proceedings and is expected to fuel continued political debate over the government's handling of COVID-19.
President Donald Trump also weighed in, saying he believed Fauci made poor decisions regarding mask guidance and widespread shutdowns during the pandemic.
President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met at the White House to discuss expanding Ukraine's domestic weapons production as the war with Russia continues.
The meeting came shortly after a NATO summit in Turkey, where Trump announced the United States would allow Ukraine to manufacture Patriot air defense systems, a move aimed at strengthening the country's ability to defend itself against Russian attacks.
Following the talks, Zelenskyy described the meeting as productive and thanked Trump for the continued support, emphasizing that diplomacy remains essential alongside military assistance. Trump later called the discussions "very well" and expressed confidence in the ongoing partnership.
Zelenskyy was also in Washington to attend the funeral of Sen. Lindsey Graham, where he met with several U.S. senators following the service to discuss continued support for Ukraine.
The teenager responsible for the deadly 2024 mass shooting at Georgia's Apalachee High School has been sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
Sixteen-year-old Colt Gray pleaded guilty to murder and other charges stemming from the September 2024 attack, which killed two students and two teachers and injured several others. Gray was just 14 years old when he carried out the shooting.
During sentencing, prosecutors said Gray had researched previous mass shootings and studied other attackers before planning the assault. The case drew national attention because of Gray's age and renewed calls for stronger school safety measures.
The life sentence brings one of the most closely watched school shooting cases in recent years to a close, though investigations into the circumstances leading up to the attack have continued.
President Donald Trump says he plans to invite a California lifeguard to the White House after the man risked his life to rescue a young boy from dangerous surf at Santa Cruz's Seabright Beach.
The dramatic rescue was captured on video as the lifeguard swam through powerful crashing waves to reach the child and bring him safely back to shore. The footage quickly spread online, drawing widespread praise for the lifeguard's quick actions and bravery.
Trump said the lifeguard will be presented with a high civilian honor in recognition of the heroic rescue. The president also said he may invite the rescued boy and his family to the White House as part of the ceremony.
A school district in upstate New York has delayed plans to introduce an AI-powered humanoid robot into a high school classroom after concerns were raised about student privacy and data security.
The robot had been purchased to support robotics and technology education, giving students hands-on experience with artificial intelligence and advanced automation. However, the rollout was paused after state officials and community members questioned how student data would be collected, stored and protected.
Additional scrutiny followed reports that the robot's manufacturer has ties to a company known for producing hyper-realistic sex robots, prompting further concerns from parents and residents.
District officials say the program will remain on hold while they conduct a more thorough review of the technology, privacy protections and potential risks before making a final decision.
Jordan says its air defenses intercepted five missiles launched from Iran early Wednesday, as tensions across the Middle East continued to rise following a series of military exchanges involving the United States and its allies.
The interceptions came just hours after U.S. Central Command announced it had successfully shot down an Iranian missile barrage targeting American forces stationed in the region. According to U.S. officials, all incoming missiles aimed at U.S. personnel were intercepted, and no injuries or damage were reported.
The developments followed coordinated U.S. and Saudi Arabian airstrikes targeting Iran-backed militia sites in Iraq. Officials said the strikes were intended to degrade the militias' operational capabilities after recent attacks linked to Iranian proxy groups.
The latest exchange marks another escalation in the growing confrontation between Iran, the United States and its regional partners, raising concerns about broader instability across the Middle East.
