Georgia police officer Jacob Kersey resigned after he was told by superiors that he could not share his personal religious views on social media. On Jan. 2, Kersey posted a 20-word message about his view of marriage on Facebook. “God designed marriage. Marriage refers to Christ and the church,” he wrote, paraphrasing the Apostle Paul’s teaching in the Book of Ephesians. “That’s why there is no such thing as homosexual marriage.” Kersey was asked by his superiors to delete the post, but when he refused he was placed on administrative leave. He ultimately made the choice to resign because he did not want to be forced to choose between freely expressing his convictions and keeping his job. Kersey joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to share his story and why he felt so convicted to stand for his religious beliefs.

Michele testifies in favor of "Sage's Law," a bill requiring schools to tell parents about their kids' gender transitions. Her daughter, Sage, became a victim of sex trafficking after the school hid her transgender identity from her mother.

Erin Friday’s daughter was introduced to gender identity ideology in a comprehensive sex-ed class in seventh grade.“The seed was planted after that class,” Friday says. “And in fact, all of her friends, there were five, sat in my front yard saying what their new labels were.” Friday says she was “alarmed by the language that they were using, including 'pansexual,' which is not a term that 11-year-olds should know.” The mother began looking into what her daughter was learning in school and was struck by the fact that other adults were not also questioning the teaching of gender ideology to middle schoolers.When her daughter said she was "transgender," Friday began taking decisive steps to rescue her from transgenderism.She took her daughter's phone, put her in a new school, and tried her best to surround the preteen with the truth about who she was as a female. It was not easy, but Friday says, as a parent, “you have to be strong enough, your love for your child has to be strong enough, to take their vitriol.”After about a year and a half, Friday’s daughter stopped claiming a transgender identity. Today, through the work of the parental support group Our Duty, Friday is helping other families navigate through gender identity ideology.Friday joins the show today to share her story, and to explain how parents can protect their children from the harms of gender identity ideology. What I've Learned Rescuing My Daughter From Her Transgender Fantasy Anime, social media, and an older teen girl all played a role in my once girly daughter's abrupt announcement that she was now transgender.

Georgia police officer Jacob Kersey has resigned after he was told by superiors that he could not share his personal religious views on social media. The post that got him in trouble read, “God designed marriage. Marriage refers to Christ and the church,” he wrote, paraphrasing the Apostle Paul’s teaching in the Book of Ephesians. “That’s why there is no such thing as homosexual marriage.” Although he is confident of finding other work, Kersey said, he knows that a long-time officer with a family to support, put in a similar situation, would be faced with the choice of “losing everything that they ever worked for, and their retirement, or standing up for their beliefs.”

Thousands of college students attended the 50th annual March for Life in Washington, DC. Here’s what they told The Daily Signal about why they are marching for life.

The Daily Signal went to the 50th March for Life in Washington, D.C. and asked pro-life advocates the questions pro-abortion activists would like to ask.We asked, why do you want to control women’s bodies, because Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has said that pro-life lawmakers are really advocating for “controlling women’s bodies.” And why do you think it’s okay to torture women, because Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., says pro-life centers are essentially torturing pregnant women. Find out what pro-life advocates really believe!

“Social media introduced this idea that I could be a boy,” Chloe Cole says. Cole began telling her friends and family that she was a boy when she was 12-years-old after she was introduced to gender identity ideology through social media. She started taking testosterone and puberty blockers at 13, and had a double mastectomy at 15. At 16, she detransitioned. “I decided to stop transitioning entirely,” Cole says. “It was too much for me, and I knew that I couldn't keep lying to myself.” Cole joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain how she because involved in the transgender movement, and why she ultimately decided to walk away. Today, Cole is working to prevent other young people from walking down the same path she did. Still haven’t subscribed to The Daily Signal on YouTube?

America is suffering from a pandemic that is not a virus, it “is a pandemic of fatherlessness.” That’s according to Pastor Kris Vallotton, author of the new book, “Up Rising: The Epic Battle for the Most Fatherless Generation in History.” “Fifty-one percent of all children in America right now are born out of wedlock, 51%,” Vallotton, the senior associate leader of Bethel Church in Redding, California, says. “In 1950, 4% of Americans were born out of wedlock.” The results of children growing up without fathers in the home are devastating, Vallotton says, with data revealing that “75% of all inmates grew up without a father,” and “63% of all youth suicides come from fatherless homes.” Vallotton also points to a rise in transgenderism and gay marriage as a side effect of fatherlessness, because “when we embrace gay marriage… what we said is that you can have two mommies and two daddies, because mommies and daddies are interchangeable.” Vallotton joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to share his own personal story of losing his father as a young boy and how that affected his life, and to offer a hopeful solution for how children can experience the love of a father amid a fatherless generation.

With the start of a new year, Dr. Ben Carson says he is concerned that America’s schools have lost their vision. Americans have lost “vision of what education is there for,” says Carson, the former secretary of Housing and Urban Development and renowned neurosurgeon. “Education is there to teach you how to function successfully in a complex society,” he says, “and when you lose sight of that, then you start saying, ‘Oh, we’ve got to concentrate on what kind of pronoun you use, and whether you’re really a girl or a boy, and are you a victim?’” With the start of the new Congress, Carson says, politicians need to prioritize not only education, but the economy, election integrity, lessening America’s dependence on China, and holding Big Tech accountable. “If we can put a man on the moon, we can certainly come up with a mechanism that we have open, fair elections that are transparent, that are quick, that we have Election Day, not election season,” he says. Carson joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to discuss his road map for America’s success in 2023.

Annabella Rockwell was thrilled when she learned she had been accepted at Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts, the oldest women's college in America. “I was so excited,” Rockwell said. “I was so eager to learn.” But the more she learned in her college classes, the more her joyful personality waned, her mother says. By junior year, a “serious robot came home” from college, Melinda Rockwell says of her daughter. In gender studies classes, the college student learned about the “patriarchy and the oppression that we experience in this country,” and she adopted these views as her own. Melinda Rockwell began to seek professional help from cult specialists to learn she could rescue Annabella from the indoctrination she experienced in college. Mother and daughter join “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain how Annabella found a way out of the woke cult, and ultimately became development director for PragerU.

Earlier this month, protesters in China stood up against the repressive Chinese Communist Party and President Xi Jinping. An apartment fire on Nov. 24, which killed at least 10 and hurt at least nine others, has been blamed on the communist regime’s lockdowns and other harsh “zero-COVID” policies.
