Ep 684 | Fascism Is Here, Not in Italy

BLAZE PODCAST NETWORK
About this episode

Today we’re kicking off this episode with good news! Italy just elected its first female prime minister, Giorgia Meloni. We listen to her compelling speech highlighting the reality and importance of gender, natural families, and Christianity. Giorgia Meloni says yes to sexual identity and no to gender ideology. Meloni is proof that people are tired of left-wing chaos and are ready for more conservative leadership. Then, we talk about the terrifying story of pro-life activist Mark Houck, whose house was raided by the FBI after a situation where he pushed someone who was harassing his son while counseling women outside an abortion clinic. We discuss the raid at Houck’s home and why this is an ongoing scare tactic by the Left. Then we address the tragic killing of Republican teen Cayler Ellingson, who was killed by a man who considered him a “Republican extremist," and the media's strategic silence on the story. We wrap up this episode with an encouraging word that Jesus is our eternal hope and God is continuing to use Christians for His glory.
