The number of abortions should be ZERO, but mail order abortion allows thousands of deadly pills to be shipped into pro-life states to take the lives of innocent children. Gabriella McIntyre from Alliance Defending Freedom gave us the inside scope on the legal battle to end chemical abortion.

🚨BREAKING: Isabel Vaughan-Spruce has pleaded "not guilty" to fresh charges for standing and silently praying inside a "buffer zone".

The new charges were presented at an ongoing hearing, in which Isabel's legal team is arguing that her prosecution amounts to an "abuse of process" and breaches her human rights to freedom of thought and religion.

The judge has also commented that “standing is not a crime" and "Courts are not here to pass judgment on people's views.”

UK censorship and thought policing must end.

Each year, @alliancedefendingfreedom bestows the Alan E. Sears Leadership Award on someone who embodies the ideals of our founder: servant leadership, humility, character, dedication, and commitment to victory.

Past recipients include Alan himself, David and Barbara Green, Joni Eareckson Tada, Elsa Prince Broekhuizen, Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone, Os Guinness, and, last year, Attorney General Steve Marshall.

This year, it was my honor to present the 2026 Sears Award, posthumously, to Charlie Kirk.

Charlie spent his life changing hearts and minds. He took a folding table, a microphone, and a sign that said “Prove me wrong” on college campuses across the country.

He believed disagreement should be met with conversation, not silence. He knew the value of listening before speaking. And he believed a young person who hears the truth plainly and in love can be changed by it.

Charlie Kirk was taken from us far sooner than we imagined. But his legacy lives on—in his example to every young man and woman finding their way to the doors of church, in every student who dares to speak up, and in all who continue to contend for truth and freedom today.

ADF was pleased to present the award to @mrserikakirk on her late husband’s behalf. I pray God continues to sustain her and all who loved Charlie.

🚨 ICONS TAKES A STAND AT THE U.S. SUPREME COURT

The Independent Council on Women’s Sports (ICONS) and its members have filed an amicus brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in support of Washington high school wrestler Kallie Keeler and @alliancedefendingfreedom, whose case raises critical questions about fairness, safety, and Title IX protections in girls’ sports.

Keeler is seeking emergency relief after alleging she was sexually assaulted by a male opponent during a girls’ wrestling match.

In our brief, ICONS argues that schools have a responsibility to protect female athletes and that the burden of ensuring fairness and safety should not fall on young girls and their families.

The stakes extend far beyond one athlete. This case could help shape the future interpretation of Title IX and the legal protections afforded to female athletes nationwide.

ICONS remains committed to advocating for sex-based protections, equal athletic opportunities, and the safety of women and girls in sports.

🚨 IN THE NEWS: VICTORY FOR PARENTAL RIGHTS!

We’re a steady, common sense voice for parental rights and religious liberty on the air, in print and online, bringing a winsome pro-family perspective and helping to keep parents.

@broadandliberty continue their coverage after Chester County Intermediate Unit rescinded its policy that instructed school employees to conceal a student’s gender transition from their parents. This was a result of a demand letter from the Independence Law Center and Alliance Defending Freedom.

“We are delighted that the Chester County Intermediate Unit agreed to rescind a policy that disrespected the rights of parents. It is in the best interest of kids to have their parents involved in all aspects of their lives, particularly during the challenging adolescent years. Rescinding the policy restores not only parental rights but also the rights of teachers and staff, ultimately creating a better environment for students to thrive.”
— Randall Wenger, Chief Counsel, Independence Law Center

But CCIU is only one district. More than 20 school districts in the Philadelphia and surrounding counties maintain similar policies or practices, and federal complaints involving at least two districts remain under investigation.

This victory shows that parental rights matter and schools should never be hiding important information about children from their parents. As @alliancedefendingfreedom CEO & President said on X, "One district down . . . many more to go. Stay vigilant, moms and dads."

Yesterday, I had the privilege of arguing before an en banc panel of the 9th Circuit.

@alliancedefendingfreedom is representing Yakima Union Gospel Mission, a Christian homeless ministry in Washington state. We’re challenging the State’s unprecedented attempt to determine who is religiously qualified to serve at a church or ministry—coercion Justice Alito warned could “extinguish” religious groups “from participation in public life.”

Our job is to make sure that doesn’t happen. I value your prayers for this case.
