Welcome to the Walboater show. This is the intersection of faith and culture. We're taking on those hot topics of the day from a biblical, historical and constitutional perspective. And you found us on Friday, which means it's good news Friday. Rick Green here with David Barton and Tim Parton. and I can't even, I'm glad I don't have your

jobs, guys, because there's so much good news. How y'all are going to pick what to do today? I don't

know, but let's just get after it. So what's our first piece of good news? Well, Rick, I want to hit an

issue that was talked about a lot over the last really four or five months leading up to the election. It goes back to the Republican National Convention back in the summer.

And so, man, that seems like a long time ago.

And I guess it was.

What was that six months ago or seven months ago?

But at that point in time, it was a real shocker for a lot of conservative Republicans

that the strong pro-life language came out of the Republican platform. Language has been there

since back really before Reagan. And that language, so many people saw that as a betrayal or

selling out of core Republican values that Trump had been real pro-life in his first administration.

And then after the court struck down Roe v. Wade and turned it back to the states,

he came out and said, well, this shouldn't be a federal issue.

This should be a state issue.

And, of course, we've disagreed with that saying, no, no, an atlable right is an issue.

It's a right that goes to every individual.

It doesn't because you live in a pro-life state, it's because you're

human. It's like slavery is not a state's rights issue, the right to liberty out of the Declaration

of Independence. That belongs to every individual. And so there was a lot of people really concerned

about Trump not going to be pro-life anymore. And it looked like it was not going to be that in his

administration. And I had a different take not going to be that in his administration.

And I had a different take back then.
