Colorado is trying to silence free speech again. A state law forces businesses to use customers' preferred pronouns even if they're biologically inaccurate. With the help of Alliance Defending Freedom, a Christian bookstore, and a sports apparel company are challenging the law, but a court recently ruled against them. They appealed the ruling, and with ADF's help, they'll keep fighting another attempt by Colorado to skirt the First Amendment.

President Trump convenes his cabinet today as peace talks with Iran reach a tipping point.
It's either going to be a good deal or there isn't going to be one.
I'm Daily Wire executive editor John Bickley with Georgia Howell. It's Wednesday, May 27th. This is Morning Wire.
Drone warfare in Russia and Ukraine leads to some of the most significant attacks to date. We have the latest on the four-year war.
The idea that, you know, we're talking about ends of wars after a couple weeks or months or years is really ridiculous when you look at the history of warfare.
And influential left-wing streamer and Democrat darling Hassan Piker confirms he's under investigation for aiding Cuba. They're after your boy.
They're up my a**.
Thanks for waking up with Morning Wire. Stay tuned. We have the news you need to know.
There's a reason so many Americans feel called to stand up for children right now. Because in a culture that moves incredibly fast, kids deserve protection, guidance, and the chance to grow up without being pushed toward irreversible decisions before they're ready to fully understand the consequences. That's why organizations like Alliance Defending Freedom are stepping in. ADF is working to encourage major corporations to reconsider policies that provide coverage for so-called gender transition procedures for minors through employee health care plans. This conversation is bigger than politics. It's about whether our culture is willing to slow down, protect childhood, and support families navigating difficult decisions with care and wisdom.
And the reality is public pressure matters. When everyday Americans speak up together, companies listen. Join ADF.com slash wire to sign the petition today. Again, that's join ADF.com slash wire.
With the fragile ceasefire seeming to fray more every day, President Trump has convened a rare cabinet meeting today.
What recent actions has President Trump taken regarding Iran?
The meeting was originally scheduled to be at Camp David, which itself is rare, but was moved to the White House at the last minute due to weather.
Joining us now to discuss is Victoria Coates, national security and foreign policy expert at Heritage. Victoria, great to see you again.
Good to see you both.
So let's start with this cabinet meeting. How significant is it that the president called for it now? And what do we know going into this?
Yeah, it is unusual. The president is not a huge fan of Camp David. It is quite rustic for his tastes, but it is also extremely private and a quiet, secure place where if you need to make a very serious decision, that's an appropriate place to go. And historically, that's when he's made his big decisions. I think that shows you the urgency of it.
He said this is very secretive, so we don't know many details going into this, correct?
No, I mean, we can read the tea leaves a little bit. You know, clearly there is a fissure emerging amongst the leadership of Iran. You have the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on the one hand. Those are the folks who probably sent out the mine boats and prepared the missile launchers. Then you have President Pazushkin and his administration. They're the ones who seem to be doing things like loosening up the Internet access. They might be more willing to deal on the nuclear program, but it's not clear there's a decision maker.
Right. You mentioned the mines. We've reported here on the recent strikes from the U.S. in the southern part of Iran. CENTCOM made sure to stress that these were defensive and very limited.
