News Round Up and Comment for 11-13-26

Pastor Curtis McMiller is Pastor of Heritage Baptist Church in Kenosha, Wisconsin. He's the speaker on the radio program, Answer the Call which airs on WVCY-FM in Milwaukee. Election Day was just 9 days ago. The results reveal that the country has decided to take a hard-left turn. As we have discussed on broadcasts since the election, a change in many policies and proposed legislation is underway. At stake is the lives of pre-born children. At stake is our immigration system. At stake is the educational system. At stake is the indoctrination of the LGBTQ+ agenda. At stake is our healthcare system. At stake is the judiciary. At stake is how we treat Israel and the Jewish people. The list goes on. What is greater at stake than all of these is the direction our nation is going spiritually. Spiritually speaking, the morals of our culture are following the pathway of darkness and destruction. We are seeing the avid promotion of false religious systems and a growing hostility to Christianity. Our culture is following a pathway that is headed to destruction, not temporary destruction, but eternal. Jim mentioned that he saw a meme recently that caught his attention. It read: "Attempting to change society without Jesus Christ is like rearranging the furniture in a burning house." Indeed, the election should be a wakeup call to our nation. However, don't miss the main issue…that this world needs Jesus and Pastor McMiller indicates that "The Church Must Seize the Opportunity." How can democratic socialists claim they swear to uphold the Constitution when their stated goals contradict that? Are they aligned with Islamic adherents? Listen well!

Dalton hosted this special broadcast that featured tributes to veterans from listeners, along with audio clips from activities that took place at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia.

For all practical purposes the results of the 2026 mid-term election are now in our rearview mirror. There are still some contested races and also unanswered discrepancies in certain areas, but as it relates to the direction our country is choosing to go, that's basically been determined. What's so baffling is how ready and anxious our nation is to attack and kill the most vulnerable among us--the pre-born babies. These infants are fully human but are unable to protect themselves from those targeting them for death. Now if you saw a child sleeping in a crib and some person came in wielding a knife, you would do all you could to disarm the intruder and protect that little one. Yet, if you move that child from a baby crib to an even more loving environment, the mother's womb, why is our culture so willing to allow similar instruments of destruction to take the life of the baby? You may have heard those who say, "Well, I vote for a particular party because they care about the little guy." What about the little guy in the womb. Who's looking out for him? With a recap of the election, what this means to the matter of life, as well as comments on where we go from here, Crosstalk welcomed back Victor Nieves, president of the Life Issues Institute. The institute was founded in 1991 to serve the educational needs of the pro-life movement. Victor developed a passion for life while working in state House and Senate campaigns in Missouri. That advocacy for life has exponentially grown. He has a degree in political science with a dual focus on American government and constitutional law. He's the speaker on the weekly pro-life program, Life Defenders.

Today is the anniversary of Kristallnacht, or the Night of the Broken Glass, an infamous time of Nazi Germany carrying out a pogrom against Jews.  Yesterday, on the eve of Kristallnacht, Jewish businesses were targeted in Philadelphia with a so-called "boycott ride."  We'll discuss that issue today. Also, many are asking, is there a turning underway in how the United States views Israel?  Many of the Socialists Democrats have spoken loudly their opposition to Israel, and now with last week's election, there are also Republicans rethinking their position.  As a matter of fact, Israel has even been blamed for the recent U.S. election results. We also take a look at the war with Iran, what is happening and why some are saying that Iran has won especially with the result of the election.  The United States is not the only country holding elections, Israel also voted and we'll get the latest on where things stand and what coalition is garnering the most votes to propel the office of Prime Minister.  Joining us today on these and related issues is  Chris Katulka. Chris is the Vice President of North American Ministries at The Friends of Israel Gospel Ministry and host of The Friends of Israel Today radio program.  He is a Bible teacher, and writer for Israel My Glory magazine and is author of the book, "Israel Always."

Predictably, this was a big week for news. Here is a sampling of the headlines shared: Trump elevates hardliner Stephen Miller as chief of staff after midterm defeat California governor commutes sentences for state's 548 death row inmates Physician Who Oversaw Christa Pike's Botched Execution Had Not Performed Key IV Procedure in 13 Years Iran executes 32 in less than a week amid rise in protests Trump Races To Confirm Judges Before Midterm Elections Harmeet Dhillon Resigns as US Assistant Attorney General Hegseth future in question as House Republicans consider impeachment effort A Record 97 Muslims (and Counting) Elected in 2026 U.S. Midterms 57% of Jewish early voters in Michigan went for El-Sayed Missouri state representative arrested Wednesday after being reelected Somali daycare owner connected to fraud wins Minnesota election Nebraska voters say no to mobile sports betting Florida Governor-elect Byron Donalds opened his victory speech by thanking Jesus Christ Ayanna Pressley urges Democrats to use their power to pursue far-left policies Influencer Followed by Abdul El-Sayed Calls for Mass Executions of Republicans Arkansas Named Most Pro-Life State in America for Seventh Year in a Row (1 John 4:4) "Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world."

The fallout from Tuesday's election continues to unfold. Those who allege that President Trump was going after political opponents are now telling those in this administration to "Lawyer Up." Yesterday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said it was a "close to extinction-level event for Republicans." He warned the impact of the election results are going to last "far beyond just two years." Ballot questions on abortion lost in 3 out of 4 states, not to mention the abortion measures that will be advanced by a new Democratic legislative body. And although some ballot questions went against the LGBTQ agenda, the LGBTQ Nation is touting the fact that at least 16 LGBTQ+ lawmakers will be sworn in to the House and Senate next year, making them what they report to be "the largest group of queer legislators ever to serve in Congress." The Daily Signal reports, "Democratic Socialists of America chapters are already mobilizing to gain nation power in the 2028 election, passing resolutions urging member Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to run for president." The goal is to derail the Trump agenda and certainly to advance leftist causes. All Israel News reported, "The National Exit Polls showed that white Evangelical or born-again Christians accounted for just 17% of the national electorate, compared with 24% in the 2022 midterms and approximately 23% in 2024."

The United Nations has a plan to place a third of Earth's land and water under control. Such control threatens private property, national sovereignty and economic freedom. There are specific targets they want in place by 2030. Our guest today attended the 17th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (COP17) in Armenia. But before that we'll discuss the blue wave that hit the nation. The Red/Green Alliance has intensified. Both the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate have flipped to Democratic Control. It's been reported that Speaker Mike Johnson will not be seeking the speakership in the next term. Washington DC has elected its first ever Democratic Socialist Mayor. Not a single Republican won statewide in Texas flipping both the office of the Governor and the U.S. Senate Seat. The first elected Muslim is going to the U.S. Senate, Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan. Kansas is sending a Democrat to the Senate for the first time in nearly 100 years.

Today is Election Day. Before you go to vote, check your polling hours and take the proper ID with you. Stay in line because if you're in line when polls close, you can still vote. If you have a mail ballot, drop it off today at it's proper location. Friends, there is too much at stake to sit this one out. Every seat in the U.S. House is being voted on today as is one-third of the U.S. Senate. This means that today's election will determine control of both the House and the Senate along with the agenda of whatever party is in control. Some 36 states are voting on the office of governor. 15 of the incumbent governors are term-limited. Six are Democrats and nine are Republicans. There are 31 lieutenant governor seats on the ballot. 30 attorney general seats are on the ballot as are 26 secretary of state positions. There are some 296 state executive offices in 43 states on the ballot. These include school superintendents, stage agency commissioners and others. Most states are voting on their state legislative offices. The makeup of the legislatures also will determine what agenda is furthered. Then there are the referendum questions in individual states.

He is an author and the host of the radio broadcasts Faith & Freedom and Freedom's Call and the TV broadcast Freedom Alive. We are now on the eve of the 2026 election. Early voting is over and what matters at this point is who will show up at the polls and vote tomorrow. There is much at stake as it relates to the outcome of this election, not just for today, but for the America that we are passing down to our children and grandchildren. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin has indicated in an interview with Newsmax that the total number of noncitizens on the voter rolls could exceed 300,000. People are being influenced by the polls, yet Western Journal reported last week the collapse of the polling industry continues with the total number of fake polls which have been exposed reaching 15. The Ohio Secretary of State, which is the state's top election officer, indicated he's concerned that pollsters are chronically under sampling Republicans as we lead up to election day. Noah Webster in his writing "History of the United States" wrote: "When you become entitled to exercise the right of voting for public officers, let it be impressed on your mind that God commands you to choose for rulers just men who will rule in the fear of God. The preservation of government depends on the faithful discharge of this duty." Don't miss this broadcast that covers aspects of the upcoming mid-term election that you simply won't get from mainstream media.
