The Hugh Hewitt Show

4 days ago | hughhewitt.com | John Schroeder

The night before Easter morn is typically a giddy affair. We look forward to a day of family gathering, easter egg hunts, and a celebration of the joy of salvation. But imagine you were one of the disciples before the very first Easter. It would be a time of nervousness and anxiety – Jesus had just been executed and you had no idea if you were next. This Easter morning I find myself more in the state of mind of the disciples.
When Agendas Collide

5 days ago | hughhewitt.com | John Schroeder

During this brief respite in Holy Week, it is time to look at all the news that has piled up. Universities have been blatantly discriminating against whites, Asians and Jews for some time now. The administration’s moves on Harvard are good. No discrimination means, no discrimination. But the absence of discrimination cannot mean the absence of simple human decency. There is a two-edged sword.
This Darkest Day

It is Good Friday, the day that God, in Christ, dies. It does not get darker. Most fortunately, Easter is just a couple of days away, but let’s not rush. God gave us these days with Him lying in a grave for a reason. Last Sunday, Palm Sunday, my local church rushed through the triumphal entry and spent most of the service focused on the Passion – the events of Christ’s trial and crucifixion.
No, Really, He Did it!

Maundy Thursday and the “meat” of Holy Week is upon us. This is a time when we should examine our mistakes and confess them. I hope you go to church this evening and enjoy the Eucharist, communion, a Celebration of the Last Supper, however your church refers to it. By the time Sunday morning rolls around, our sins are forgiven – the price paid, the victory won. And yet we still act like losers. Typically, it is a big stretch to impose religious thinking on political activity.
They Just Hate People

Since Trump won the election and came into office, we do not hear much from environmentalists. But that does not mean they are not active, particularly in other parts of the world where their roots had gone deeper. The more I read, the more I think they just don’t like people. Perhaps it was the publication of “The Population Bomb” in 1968 when they first showed their true colors. But in 1968 there were very real, very consequential environmental issues.
Why The Civil Service Rules HAVE To Change

This story is just annoying. It bounces around like a golf ball in a box, clearly trying to lead the reader to a place it is afraid to go on its own. Essentially, three stories are being covered. One – DOGE efforts at The State Department. Two – efforts at State to root out anti-Christian bias. Three – the appointment of a new interim HR head for State that was overtly Christian in his opening remarks.
Character and The Death of College Athletics

1 week ago | hughhewitt.com | John Schroeder

It has not taken long. After this past weekend, big time college sports, in the age of the transfer portal and N.I.L., has turned undeniably pro. The facade crumbled. With this change has gone the reason, decades ago, that I enjoyed my participation in athletics – up to and including major college sports. For the record, I was not a player – I was a manager/trainer and spent only my freshman year in that role at an SEC school.
The Fine Line Between Negotiation and Appeasement

China is our enemy. We are, as the host is fond of pointing out, back in a “bipolar” world cold war. China is playing by very different rules than the Soviet Union and have, subsequently, deeply infiltrated us economically and academically before we even woke up to the threat. They are increasingly dangerous. The prior and current administrations are responding quite differently.
Undiscussed Benefits of D.O.G.E.

In the church circles I run in it is rare to hear government policy discussed directly. But some of the recent efforts by DOGE have struck home. Specifically, federal funding for refugee services channeled through churches has dried up. Different churches are reacting differently. Locally, where I live, we raised the necessary money in a few weeks using matching grants from some well-endowed churches. Others are being a bit more dramatic.
Enough With The Stunts

2 weeks ago | hughhewitt.com | John Schroeder

Last weekend saw “protests” in many locations around the nation. My wife and I happened through the local one. There was nothing organic about it. The people involved were clearly hired or gullible. The timing was clearly set to coincide with the stock market turmoil. It was not a demonstration or a protest; “the people” were not speaking; it was a stunt, organized and staged by someones unknown. Lot of stunts lately, especially in California.
