Today on the LOOPcast, we break down America’s new “Accommodation Nation,” where elite campuses are flooded with disability claims and students can’t pass middle-school math. We look at why most Americans now say college isn’t worth it, then unpack Trump’s new Invest America accounts and the Dells’ multi-billion-dollar boost. Plus: big Catholic converts at ASU, a key conservative win in Tennessee, the Word of the Year (“rage bait”), and the rise of therapy as a religion.

Daily Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before you seeking your calming presence to bring peace to my troubled heart. My soul feels like a restless sea, tossing and turning with worries. I place my trust in your boundless love, knowing that you will heal the stress and anxiety that weights me down and burdens me. Light up the darkness Lord and let your light shine the way for me. Amen.
