Great!
I enjoyed speaking with Sen @RickSantorum at @TexasGOP convention, and I thanked him for lending his voice to the conservative opposition to big government bills like SB2420, which are the OPPOSITE of "parental empowerment" and opens the door to dystopian DIGITAL IDs.
.@RickSantorum will join @BiancaDLGarza during the 1 pm ET hour on @NEWSMAX to discuss the latest news in politics. Hope you will tune in! https://t.co/VHQvSgJ0uj
“Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from Him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.” (Psalm 127:3-4)
Happy Father's Day to all the dads and grandpas out there! #FathersDay
"There's Only One Thing In Your Life That’s Eternal"… | @RickSantorum and his daughter @emarcolini1 joined @AbigailCBN for a heart-to-heart conversation about their life and faith journeys ... https://t.co/28ARwKBHMI via @YouTube
20 years ago, An Inconvenient Truth put climate change at the center of global debate, shaping politics, influencing leaders, and inspiring a generation of activists.
Two decades later, we can assess not just its impact, but its accuracy. Many of the film’s most alarming predictions did not materialize, while many of the policies it inspired have proven costly and ineffective.
The lesson? Panic is a poor guide for public policy. Focusing on innovation, adaptation, and economic development can do far more to help both people and the climate—at a fraction of the cost.

"The question is, where does the power belong? And what is in the best interest of the family, of the child, and of society as a whole? And it's NOT getting government more involved in your kids' lives." @RickSantorum on KOSA (Kids Online Safety Act). Tell your reps to vote NO!
Our 8th child has Trisomy 18. The prognosis we were given was even more devastating. Thankfully I had learned that a father’s job is to love protect and provide while shepherding her to heaven. I learned all of my children are disabled in some way. All of them suffer physically and mentally. They all will break your heart and give you great joy. They all require more love and effort than you have ever given to anyone before. You were convinced not to love your child enough to even be born. I grieve for you and your wife because you bought the lies of a society that places yourself above others, even your own children. I grieve you saw your child through a utilitarian lens as a list imperfections, not as a gift God sent you to bring you closer to Him. God doesn’t make mistakes. It’s clear from your post that this child was given to you to help you find what really matters in life, to teach you about sacrificial love and put you on a path to true happiness on this earth and in eternity. I will pray for repentance reconciliation and restoration so some day you will meet your child in heaven.
What does it actually cost to be a seriously Catholic politician in America?
@RickSantorum and @MaryMargOlohan on homeschooling, large families and how he predicted the gender ideology movement more than two decades before anyone took it seriously.
Get the latest political analysis and commentary this morning as @RickSantorum joins the Wake Up America team at 7:25 am ET to discuss a possible Iran deal, the upcoming Los Angeles mayoral election, midterms, and more. Hope you will tune in! https://t.co/VHQvSgJ0uj
Gas prices were higher under Joe Biden for no good reason other than the fact that the administration simply wanted to constrain supply for global warming that was a farce. This is a very small price to pay for Americans for stability & security denuclearizing Iran @RickSantorum
Is the Catholic moment in American politics finally here?
@MaryMargOlohan is joined by former US Senator @RickSantorum for the first episode of In Conversation With to discuss the rise of Catholicism in conservative politics, the culture wars he saw coming decades ago, and the personal faith that shaped it all.

There is a growing blind spot in Washington’s understanding of Iran - one Israelis and Gulf Arabs grasp more clearly than many in the Trump camp or Europe.
This is not just about missiles or sanctions. It is about belief: the Mahdist narrative gaining influence within the IRGC, Iran’s hardliners, and supporters of Mojtaba Khamenei.
Many inside the regime now believe Iran survived recent crises not because of diplomacy or restraint, but because of “the unseen hands of the Mahdi” protecting its divine mission.
That is the real danger.
For years, the West dismissed Iran’s apocalyptic rhetoric as symbolic. But in times of war and survival, such beliefs can morph into fanatical operational devotion!
Within IRGC circles, Mojtaba Khamenei is increasingly linked to the “Khorasani” figure from Shi’a prophecy - a leader from eastern Iran who survives foreign attacks amid regional chaos. Hardliners also cast Abdul Malik al-Houthi as the “Yamani,” destined to align with him in a wider regional struggle.
None of this proves prophecy. But movements driven by apocalyptic conviction do not need their beliefs to be true to become dangerous. They only need followers willing to act on them.
That is the risk now facing the region.
If Tehran emerges bruised but intact - convinced America ultimately backed down - the result will not be moderation. It will be vindication of the “Unseen protective hands of the Mahdi” narrative!
The IRGC will see survival as divine endorsement. Every survived strike and every Western hesitation will reinforce the belief that the regime is protected because it serves a sacred mission.
That is how political movements become messianic ones.
The Middle East has seen this before. Al-Qaeda mythologized bin Laden’s survival. ISIS turned Baghdadi into an apocalyptic symbol. In both cases, symbolism mattered as much as military strength.
Once a movement becomes eschatological, deterrence weakens. Sacrifice becomes sacred, and endless conflict becomes a path to redemption.
That is why unfinished wars carry risks.
If America retreats ambiguously while Iran grows more convinced of its divine mission, the result may not be a weaker Iran, but a more radicalized and dangerous revolutionary axis stretching across the region and seeking nuclear weapons, not for deterrent, but for intimidation!
The danger is not simply that the Islamic Republic survives.
The danger is that it believes God/Mahdi ensured its survival.
And once states begin viewing geopolitics as divine destiny, the region enters a far darker phase.
Right now, @USCIRF has ZERO Commissioners.
We urge @POTUS and congressional leaders to promptly appoint — or reappoint — Commissioners.
Appointments remaining:
@POTUS: 3
@SpeakerJohnson: 1
@RepJeffries: 2
@johnthune: 1
@SenSchumer: 2
At a time of growing religious persecution and instability around the world, the US cannot allow a gap in this important bipartisan religious freedom institution.
