Jonathan Alexandre of Liberty Counsel opens "CURE America" with the ancient claim of Jeremiah 1:5: that the child was known before the body was formed. He is joined by Jordan Jackson, city director of Love Life DC, and by Torrey Snow, CURE's National Clergy Director. Jackson describes standing outside the Planned Parenthood clinic at Fourth and Florida and insists the building is only the smallest part of the contest. The decisive ground, he argues, is not the White House but the church house. He returns again and again to the forgotten fathers: when a frightened woman first turns to the man in her life and receives provision rather than the slogan "your body, your choice," more than ninety percent of those pregnancies continue. House of Refuge congregations publish a public pledge of help without shame. A Canadian pastor read the pledge once; two women came forward the same morning—one who had carried silence for forty years, another for fifteen. In Plantation, Florida, a local chapter prayed a clinic closed and later purchased the building. Women still arrive seeking abortions. The door is not locked behind them. Jackson speaks of his own wife and children, though they remain off camera. Snow traces the same conviction through the late Bishop Dean Nelson and the Douglass Leadership Institute: a Jeremiah 1:5 Sunday directed at Black pulpits, a denominational statement that became practical, an amicus brief on the road to the Court, and Nelson standing in the street at the height of Black Lives Matter naming the clinics that sat inside the zip codes the slogans claimed to defend. Together the three men name four tasks for the church—compassion, mercy, justice, and fellowship—and place the numbers that give justice its weight: a people who are twelve to thirteen percent of the nation account for roughly forty percent of abortions; in New York City the odds that a Black child who is conceived will be born are roughly even. Marty Dannenfelser, CURE's vice president for government relations and coalitions, then takes Jackson's place. The conversation moves from the clinic door to the kitchen table: inflation, credit, rent, and the politicians who treat price ceilings as compassion. Competition, they argue, is what lowers prices; artificial ceilings on credit, wages, and rent shrink supply and leave households with higher paychecks that buy less. Ownership is set against the rent cycle. Star Parker's column on policies that would make borrowing more expensive is placed under the discussion. They close by surveying the midterm landscape—the SAVE Act, "Dobbs", the filibuster, court-packing, D.C. and Puerto Rico statehood, and the Women's Health Protection Act—and by recalling a warning as old as the commandments: beware the candidate who offers something for nothing. The church can walk with the woman and the family. Government can step aside. It cannot do the walking.
