Tucked neatly into Section 2 of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) is a small but powerful provision that’s turning heads across the Second Amendment community. In plain terms, it removes firearm suppressors—more commonly known as silencers—from the National Firearms Act (NFA). This means that law-abiding Americans will no longer be forced to pay a…
A Review of the OBBBA’s Endowment Tax Provision
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act introduces a significant overhaul of how large private university endowments are taxed in the United States. Currently, qualifying colleges and universities with sizeable endowments pay a flat 1.4% excise tax on their investment income.

Work, Welfare, and Wisdom: A Review of SNAP Reforms
A couple days ago, we examined the Medicaid work requirements tucked into the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Now, it's time to roll up our sleeves and take a biblically grounded, no-nonsense look at a similar provision in the same bill: the new work requirements for SNAP, better known as food stamps. The provision introduces…
The Constitution, the Courts, and the Call for a Leaner Government
The American government has long been bloated beyond reason—so when President Trump launched an executive order aimed at trimming the fat by laying off tens of thousands of federal employees and even eliminating some agencies altogether, many conservatives gave a hearty cheer. But not everyone was thrilled. On May 9, 2025, U.S. District Judge Susan…
Reckoning with the Red Ink: A Christian Conservative Review of Trump’s Budget
On Friday, President Trump dropped his 2026 budget proposal like a hot potato on Capitol Hill, and let’s just say — folks are either cheering or chasing it with pitchforks.

Righteous Ends Demand Righteous Means
So, the Supreme Court just handed down a decision that looks like a win for President Trump on the surface, but when you scratch a little deeper, it’s actually a warning shot — one that conservatives, constitutionalists, and anyone who still believes in the rule of law would do well to heed. At the heart…
Free Speech Isn’t Terrorism — But Supporting Terrorism Absolutely Is
In today’s political circus, it’s getting harder and harder to separate what’s real from what’s just noise. But when the federal government arrests a foreign student near Boston, accuses her of supporting Hamas, and revokes her visa, it’s not just another Twitter argument. This time, it’s serious — and it deserves an honest, careful look.…
Foreign Aid, Fiscal Responsibility, and a Smarter Way Forward
Foreign aid has always been a hot-button issue in American politics. To some, it represents the best of America—our generosity, leadership, and commitment to helping those in need. To others, it’s an example of out-of-control government spending, too often wasted on corrupt regimes, ineffective programs, and nations that don’t have our best interests at heart.…
Trump, Courts, and the Real Separation of Powers Debate
The latest media frenzy over President Trump’s stance on court rulings is nothing more than the left’s predictable hysteria over his presidency. This time, the mainstream press is in full meltdown mode over Trump’s comments affirming that while he will abide by the courts, he will also appeal decisions that block his agenda. In a…
Elon Musk, DOGE, and the Battle for Government Accountability
So, Elon Musk—one of the world’s richest men and the guy responsible for electric cars, reusable rockets, and free speech on X (formerly Twitter)—has been handed access to the federal government’s financial systems. Not only that, but he’s leading a task force called the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE)—because, of course, he couldn’t resist naming…
