There is a moment in every legislative fight when the machinery of procedure either serves the people or becomes an excuse for cowardice. We are in that moment now. The SAVE America Act — legislation that Republicans campaigned on and that the American people voted to see enacted — sits hostage to the filibuster, that hallowed Senate tradition that has, once again, transformed majority-rule governance into a veto wielded by a determined minority.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune has acknowledged the core problem plainly enough: four Republican senators remain opposed to eliminating the filibuster. Four. Not fourteen, not forty — four. That is not a wall. That is a door with a single deadbolt. The only question is whether Thune has the will, and the skill, to find the key.

America is a Christian nation. Our very founding testifies to this eternal truth. From the Pilgrims crossing the Atlantic in search of religious liberty to the Continental Congress opening its sessions in fervent prayer, our forebears understood that true liberty flows from dependence upon Almighty God. To be genuinely America First, we must honor our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as the cornerstone of our national identity. In these treacherous political and cultural landscapes—where secularism, moral decay, and anti-Christian beliefs have become normalized—we dare not forget that our blessings as the greatest nation on earth come directly from the hand of Providence.

As we stand on the threshold of America’s 250th anniversary in 2026, a profound opportunity presents itself: the chance to rededicate our nation as One Nation Under God. President Trump has proclaimed a “Year of Celebration and Rededication” and called for the National Jubilee of Prayer, Praise, and Thanksgiving on May 17, 2026, on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. This gathering, part of the broader Freedom 250 and America Prays initiatives, invites believers from every state to come together at sunrise for worship, testimonies, music, and a powerful national moment of prayer—echoing the very prayers that sustained our founders 250 years ago.

President Donald Trump is pursuing a one-month ceasefire with Iran while the U.S. has delivered a detailed 15-point peace plan aimed at ending the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

The proposal demands that Iran fully dismantle its nuclear program, abandon support for proxy militias, limit its missile capabilities, and keep the Strait of Hormuz open as a free maritime corridor.

In exchange, Iran would receive the lifting of international sanctions and U.S. assistance in developing its civilian nuclear program for electricity generation.

The plan was delivered through Pakistani channels with an initial short response deadline, and the framework draws on elements similar to previous Trump-brokered agreements.

Trump has publicly stated that talks are productive, claiming Iran has already made significant concessions, including a valuable undisclosed “present” to the United States.

Military operations, including Operation Epic Fury, continue alongside diplomacy, with a five-day pause ordered on strikes against Iranian energy infrastructure.

Iranian officials, including parliament speaker Mohammed-Baqer Qalibaf, have denied formal negotiations, even as reports indicate backchannel communications.

Oil prices dropped sharply on news of the diplomatic push, reflecting market hopes for de-escalation amid disruptions caused by Iran’s actions in the Strait of Hormuz.
