In today's episode, we tackle the controversy surrounding the U.S. State Department's omission of India from its countries of particular concern list, despite increasing attacks on Christians reported in the country. This move has ignited criticism from Christian groups and a congressional watchdog.

 Next, we explore a recent shift by a federal appeals court regarding a barrier in Texas along the Rio Grande, originally installed to curb illegal crossings from Mexico. The previous decision insisting on its removal has been voided, sparking new discussions. Lastly, we delve into a study revealing that two-thirds of Americans believe parents should have the right to exclude their children from public school teachings they deem inappropriate or contrary to their values.
