Director of Communications for the Center for Renewing America Rachel Cauley addresses what is happening on Capitol Hill. Cauley believes that recent actions taken by the House have sparked fear-mongering tactics, exemplified by headlines warning of an imminent government shutdown. While it’s accurate that a short-term lapse in government funding might lead to a shutdown in the near future, Cauley argues that this outcome isn’t necessarily as dire as it’s being portrayed. Government shutdowns, in their view, don’t have to be needlessly stressful events. They point out that Republican administrations tend to take more deliberate measures to minimize the impact of shutdowns on everyday citizens, whereas the same cannot always be said for Democratic administrations.

Interview with Col. Bil Rutledge
Col. Bill Rutledge (Ret. USAF) shares his perspective on Eric Metaxas’ book Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy. Rutledge delves into the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a theologian and anti-Nazi dissident, emphasizing the significance of his story. In 1917, Bonhoeffer made a bold move by urging the United States Congress to declare war on Germany, demonstrating his early recognition of Germany’s descent into fascism and the peril it posed. Rutledge underscores the relevance of Bonhoeffer’s insights in contemporary times, advocating for vigilance against the emergence of fascist and authoritarian ideologies at their inception. Bonhoeffer’s courageous actions serve as a timeless reminder of the importance of taking proactive measures when such threats begin to take root in society.Listen to the full interview in the second hour.
