| 0:02.9 | Hating Satan is now a hate crime in Iowa, continuing to win in Florida, and don't get yourself |
| 0:09.1 | worked up over Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey. |

| 0:28.5 | With an hours of a federal court finding six more pro-life activists guilty of peacefully demonstrating inside an infamous late-term abortion clinic I told you about yesterday, Christian Navy veteran |
| 0:32.7 | Michael Cassidy was charged with a hate crime this week for toppling a satanic statue at the |
