Good news stories today about the Texas A&M victory, the pro-life victory at the Rio Sustainable Development Summit and our dear friend Reggie Littlejohn’s moving account of her meeting with Chen Guangcheng.

Also, watch the video of Marc Rubio’s talk at the Faith and Freedom Coalition. Many consider this youngish politician to be a great hope for the future of the US.
