David Wurmser, Senior Analyst for Middle East Policy at The Center for Security Policy, responds to President Trump�s warnings of an imminent decision on Iran, what this could mean for the region, how the election results may influence our Middle East policies and positions, Vice President Vance�s criticism of Israel, and what this means for future U.S.-Israel relations.

Ryan Bangert, Senior Vice President for Strategic Initiatives and Special Counsel to the President at Alliance Defending Freedom, contemplates what�s next for the pro-life movement following midterm ballot initiatives, how we can interpret those results, and provides an update on a New York court hearing regarding an abortion pill reversal medication.

Jeanne Seaver, Founder and President of Moms Against Gambling, shares a silver lining from the midterm elections, resulting in multiple pro-gambling initiatives failing, but expresses caution as many industry CEOs are optimistic that they can continue expansion under the Democratic controlled Congress.

David Closson, Director of the Center for Biblical Worldview at FRC, offers a biblical response to life�s challenges and defeats, while encouraging continued engagement on faith-related public issues that matter.
