Guest Post by Pro-life Leader Frank Pavone, National Director, Priests for Life State leaders and prolife activists from most states in the nation gathered for two days in Arlington, Virginia, for the 55th National Right to Life Convention on June 12 and 13, under the theme of “We the People.” With America’s 250th birthday right on the horizon, conference participants were in a mood both of celebration and of determination to apply both to culture and law the truth that the Declaration of Independence articulates, that we have an inalienable right to life given by God, and that governments exist to secure that right.

President Trump seems to be trying in earnest to end the Iran war that we embarked upon on Israel’s behalf, and it’s upsetting all the right people. If New York Times columnists Bret Stephens and Thomas Friedman are disappointed, the president is doing something right. These are the Israel First type people who are anathema […]

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a preliminary injunction Friday against a California law that allowed children to hide their transgender status from their parents.The law required teachers and others to withhold information from parents related to their children identifying as transgender or asking to be called by a different name.'The Constitution is clear — parents have the right to know what is happening with their children and make decisions regarding their mental health, and no state law can override that fundamental protection.'The three-judge panel initially rejected the lawsuit from residents of Huntington Beach but relented after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a similar case on the side of parental rights.The appeals court recognized that the law would likely violate parents' First and Fourteenth Amendment rights.America First Legal, the organization that represents the parents, called the ruling a major victory in a statement on its website."California cannot use state law to force schoolteachers and administrators into a conspiracy of silence against parents," AFL senior counsel Nick Barry said. "California's law, and similar school policies, use state coercion to intentionally interfere with the parent-child relationship and separate a child from their parent. That is wrong and unlawful."AFL added that the state of California "sought to prevent parents from obtaining information about 'gender transitions' of their own children without the child's consent."Proponents of these types of laws say they are necessary to protect children who may have feelings that would lead them to identify as transgender from parents who may oppose their wishes. Critics say cutting out parents puts children at risk of grooming and abuse by far-left teachers and other school officials.RELATED: Supreme Court sides with Catholic parents against California on student gender notification — for now "The Constitution is clear — parents have the right to know what is happening with their children and make decisions regarding their mental health, and no state law can override that fundamental protection," Barry continued.California Attorney General Rob Bonta has not commented on the ruling yet.

At the 2026 G7 Summit in Évian-les-Bains, France — which concluded on Wednesday June 17 — U.S. President Donald Trump met with leaders ranging from French President Emmanuel Macron to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Right-wing Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni also met with Trump at the G7, but Italian officials are angry over a comment Trump made about her — so angry that the deputy prime minister canceled a visit to the United States planned for June 21-22.On X, formerly Twitter, The Hill's Julia Manchester reports, "Italy’s foreign minister cancels his trip to the U.S. after President Trump reportedly say Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni 'begged' him for a photo at the G7 Summit."It is the "begged" part, according to Manchester, that Italian officials found offensive. One of them is Italian Deputy Prime Minister Antonio Tajani, who also serves as Italy's minister of foreign affairs.On X, Tajani posted, "The serious and offensive words of President Trump towards Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni offend all of Italy. For this reason, I have decided to cancel my visit to the United States scheduled for the next 21 and 22 June."The Rome-based Tajani, now 72, is a veteran of Italian politics. During the 1990s, he was a spokesman for then-Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. Tajani was a founder of the center-right Forza Italia party along with Berusconi, and he was president of the European Parliament in the late 2010s.In a video posted on X, Meloni said, "Donald Trump's statements are completely made up. I am frankly astonished. I don't know why the president of the United States behaves like this towards his allies. It is not the first time, moreover. I can only say it is disappointing that he does not show the same determination with the enemies of the West and of the United States, whose leaders he instead treats with far greater indulgence. There is one thing he should remember: neither I nor Italy ever beg."Italian politician and activist Alessandro Di Battista, known for his work in the Five Stars Movement, addressed the controversy as well.In response to Tajani's post, Di Battista tweeted, "Stop buying US gas instead of Russian gas. You're pathetic with these stupid things here!"According to India Today, the Trump/Meloni controversy "marks a significant deterioration in relations between the two right-wing leaders, who had appeared to stabilize their previously strained relationship during the G7 summit in France." Reuters reports, "Meloni said she was 'astonished' by (Trump's) comments, which were 'completely made up.' She also chided him for acting with far greater deference to the enemies of the West than he does towards old, established allies. Underscoring how much Trump's comments have angered Meloni's government, Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani announced he was cancelling a planned visit to the U.S. next week. The latest exchange marks a sharp deterioration in ties, coming just days after signs emerged at the G7 Summit that the two right-wing leaders had steadied a previously strained relationship following tensions this year over the war on Iran."Reuters adds, 'Video from the event in France showed Meloni and Trump deep in conversation, sitting side-by-side on a small sofa, but the U.S. leader suggested he had merely indulged her by chatting with her."
