In this segment, Kelsey Pritchard, Communications Director for Susan B. Anthony (SBA) Pro-Life America, joins the show to discuss the growing tension between the pro-life movement and Republican leadership. Following recent comments from President Donald Trump suggesting that the party should remain "flexible" on abortion policy, Pritchard outlines why the Hyde Amendment—a long-standing legislative provision that prevents federal taxpayer dollars from funding elective abortions—is a non-negotiable line in the sand for millions of voters.

Key Discussion Points


What is the Hyde Amendment? Pritchard explains that the Hyde Amendment has been a bipartisan consensus for nearly 50 years, ensuring that Americans are not forced to violate their conscience by funding elective abortions through federal programs.


The "Shock" of Trump’s Comments: Despite previously being a champion of the Hyde Amendment, Trump’s recent call for "flexibility" has sparked swift backlash. Pritchard argues that moving away from Hyde is a "no-go" and "completely unacceptable" to the pro-life movement.


Political Consequences & Stats: The interview highlights the high stakes for the 2026 midterms. Pritchard warns that even a small 1% to 2% drop in pro-life voter turnout could cost Republicans control of the Senate and House.


The $80 Million Strategy: SBA Pro-Life America is launching a massive $80 million mobilization effort targeting battleground states like Georgia, North Carolina, Michigan, and Iowa.


A Moral Stand: Beyond politics, Pritchard emphasizes the moral weight of the issue, stating that taxpayer-funded abortion would lead to an increase in the number of abortions and cause "misery" for women across the country.

ABOUT LESSONS FROM THE FRONT

Lessons From the Front is the most honest, relatable, and humble book yet written about Ukraine and the Middle East. It's not the memoir of a seasoned correspondent - it's the raw perspective of a 25-year-old kid from Cleveland who thought he understood the world. until war humbled him.One day in Ukraine taught him he had much to learn. One day in the Middle East taught him he didn't know much of anything at all. Instead of pretending to be an expert, Robert admits what he doesn't know, learns in real time, and lets the people living the conflict teach him - and the reader - what war really asks of ordinary human beings.Unlike most war books, this isn't about strategy, geopolitics, or ideology. It's about people - families fleeing, soldiers breaking, civilians surviving - and the lessons these fast-paced moments teach about home, time, fear, and humility.Listeners will walk away saying: "The world is more complex than I thought - and I want to understand it better." 

WHY THIS BOOK MATTERS (and why now)

In a fractured country starving for nuance, Lessons From the Front is proof that understanding is still possible.The book arrives at a moment when:' . Americans are overwhelmed by global events. Media trust is historically low. People are tired of punditry and certain answers. Younger audiences crave honesty over ideologyRobert's voice cuts through the noise with humility, unvarnished truth, and human storytelling.Bill O'Reilly - The state of American journalism is shaky at this point in history but brave guys like Robert Sherman just might save the industry.a fascinating book."Brigadier General (ret) John "Dragon" Teichert - "Robert Sherman's insights from the Ukrainian and Israeli front lines are stunning.creating a book that readers won't be able to put down."
