The Texas Supreme Court has allowed a ban on gender affirming care
Starting point is 00:00:55 for minors. That's what they call gender affirming. It is in reality, intermittently altering a child's natural puberty process followed by often genital and body mutilation. Texas lawmakers said, yeah, we're not going to allow that here. A higher court said, no, it must be allowed. And now the Texas Supreme Court said, nope, the people and the legislature has spoken. A pro genital mutilation group says the court threatens not only the physical health, but also the mental and emotional well-being of countless Texans. Keep in mind, these are kids under 18. 61% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, 80% of people who make less than $50,000 a year
Starting point is 00:01:38 are living paycheck to paycheck, but 40% of Americans earning over $100,000 a year are also living paycheck to paycheck. Inflation, of course, a major factor, but it's also spending too much. Non-essential items, traveling, eating out, and streaming services. 10% of people say the top reason why they're living. living paycheck to paycheck are these non-essential things. They just don't care about living paycheck to paycheck, at least not enough to stop spending money. I never thought I'd share a women's volleyball story, but here we are in Nebraska,
Starting point is 00:02:15 the University of Nebraska women's volleyball team filled Memorial Stadium. That's the football stadium. 92,003 fans watched a women's college of volleyball game from way up. you couldn't even see the game. This broke the record for the largest crowd to ever watch a women's sporting event. The previous record was in 2022 in Barcelona for a women's soccer match. And the previous record in America was 90,185 at the Women's World Cup final at the Rose Bowl in 1999. I'm Mike Slater for the podcast, Politics by Faith.

Donald Trump is dominating the Republican primary polling, as you know, and that situation may not change. His challenges continue to strive to get a foothold, never mind momentum.
Starting point is 00:04:22 In the face of this, the Democrats and their corporate media allies, are forging an updated narrative. Trump will get hammered in the national election as most Americans don't want him to run. Over the next few weeks, you will consistently hear that from the press. It may be true that most Americans don't embrace a former president, but face with a worse alternative that might not matter. President Biden is obviously weak
Starting point is 00:04:54 and may face serious accusations of bribery. That's not a long shot any longer, and astute observers know it. Impeachment looms even as Biden struggles to do his job. His trip to Maui was another disaster. Kamala Harris is a disaster as well across the board, and polling averages show Trump beating her handily. governor Gavin Newsom has destroyed California so there's that if he decides to get into the race
Starting point is 00:05:33 Donald Trump will understands his competition is in disarray and that keeps him in the game despite his precarious legal situation anything can happen in 2024 so please stay close to us because we will not lie to you.

Starting point is 00:06:00 Name in town if you wish to opine. Now let's go to the mail. So Mark says, if you want to restore any law and order, you need to realize that the Trump tragedy is an all political prosecution. It was political during the first year he was president and before that. But after he broke the rules,
Starting point is 00:06:17 He did break some of the rules. They're absolutely right. Kevin Wheeler, British Columbia, Canada. Bill, how can you call these indictments that Donald Trump politically driven by Democrats when a grand jury votes on the charges before an indictment is handed down? Grand jury are regular folks.
Starting point is 00:06:34 No defense is put into play in a grand jury hearing. Just the prosecutor, you can say whatever he wants. So in D.C., for example, or Atlanta, where it's 90% left, Grand jury's going to indict. James Weatherford, Brownsburg, Indiana. Is it possible for the Republican Party or someone with authority to file charges against the DA in Atlanta? No.
Starting point is 00:07:01 But the Georgia Republicans are trying to get her dismissed because she broke some kind of rule, they say. But you can't sue them they have indemnification. All elected officials do. Mark Doyle, State College, Pennsylvania. Where would a county DA get the resources to do an investigation of the Georgia Magnetid? They have money to do investigation. But the fact that no other county signed on, it pretty much tells you what this is. Carol Creech, Arbery, Texas.
Starting point is 00:07:31 My husband and I enjoy watching the NOSPN News. Based on the Republican debate Wednesday, August 23rd, do you feel Nikki Haley would be a good VP choice for Trump? Trump doesn't like Nikki Haley, though that's never going to happen. Dennis Bardeen, Canistio, New York, can we still believe our justice system is legitimate? No, justice system's corrupt in this country, both criminal and civil. Corrupt. In a moment, something you might not know.

Four hundred fourteen years ago this week, a British explorer sailed into Delaware Bay for the first time. No, Joe, Biden was not on the beach to greet him. Sorry, couldn't resist. Here is the story of Henry
Starting point is 00:08:50 Hudson. The Englishman launched his journey to North America in 1609 on behalf of the Dutch East India Company. Hudson explored vast sections of the continent, including Chesapeake Bay, Delaware, Virginia. He was the first European to explore the area that would eventually become New York City. Henry believed the waterway running along the the west coast of Manhattan, later named the Hudson River, would lead him to the Pacific Ocean, China, and eventually provide a path back to Europe. He was wrong. He reversed course and returned to England and Holland, then launched another three expeditions to find a western route to Asia. Things did not end well for Henry Hudson. His last expedition
Starting point is 00:09:44 departed London in April 1610. The crew sail beyond Greenland, then into northern Canada. After three months, his ship, the discovery became trapped by ice and freezing temperatures. The group sailed ashore to wait out the winter. Lacking food or supplies, the expedition slowly starved. On June 22nd, 1611, the remaining crew mutiny, against the 46-year-old Hudson. They forced Henry into a tiny lifeboat,
Starting point is 00:10:21 along with his teenage son and seven supporters. The group was cast into the frozen sea and never seen again. Although Hudson vanished in the Arctic, his discoveries gave England its claim to vast sections of the new world. And here's something else you might not know. Henry Hudson's legacy lives on.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Three of the most noteworthy bodies of water in North America, the Hudson River, Hudson Strait, and Hudson Bay are all obviously named in his honor. But all in all, it was a rough life and death for Henry Hudson. Back after this. Power, politics, and the people behind the headlines. I'm Miranda Devine.
