3 weeks ago EASTER WEEKEND Special Edition: U.S. Senator JOHN KENNEDY (R-LA) offers his best wishes for Easter 2025, and also outlines why President DONALD J. TRUMP is justified in calling for an end to taxpayer subsidies of PBS and National Public Radio; he also weighs in on cutting off federal funds for Harvard University whose ideology he suggests “teaches people on campus how to hurt Jewish students.” House Speaker MIKE JOHNSON charges Democrats are “outright lying” about Social Security and Medicare to scare voters, but adds that will not deter him from powering the Trump budget reconciliation measure to a vote before Memorial Day. Rev. WILL GRAHAM, Executive VP at the Billy Graham Evangelical Association (and Billy Graham’s grandson) offers a Scripture-focused Easter message he shared in Baton Rouge this week at Louisiana Governor JEFF LANDRY’s prayer breakfast. And TONY PERKINS’ commentary contrasts Easter Sunday under President Trump with 2024’s so-called “Transgender Recognition Day” designated by Joe Biden…plus much more on our latest edition of THIS WEEK ON CAPITOL HILL, releasing at 10AM Eastern Saturday on the Salem News Channel.
