Summary
Aaron McIntire unpacks a packed Friday five-pack. President Trump defends Operation Warp Speed as “one of the most incredible things ever done,” despite his Health Secretary pulling mRNA vaccine research funding, sparking base frustration. The Trump administration tightens H-1B visa rules with mandatory interviews starting September, slowing the process to curb big tech’s reliance on cheap foreign labor. A new census excluding illegal immigrants could reshape congressional districts, while Florida joins Texas in redistricting to vaporize Democrat seats. Holly, a Cincinnati assault victim, demands more police and accountability after a brutal attack by a repeat offender. R.C. Sproul’s viral clip rebukes a low view of God’s justice, and McIntire answers listener questions in Ask or Tell Me Anything.
