Update on Washington State’s Attack on the Seal of the Confessional

The fight is not over.

A federal court on July 18, 2025, blocked the controversial Washington state Senate Bill 5375 reporting law that would require priests to violate the seal of confession, siding with the state’s Catholic bishops who filed suit against the measure earlier this year.

Early indications suggest that the state of Washington plans to appeal the decision. We must assume that these attacks on our First Amendment rights (and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment) will continue to be promoted by wayward states like Washington and California (the proposed bill was Senate Bill 360).

We should never forget how vital appointments to “our” judicial courts are, especially the U.S. Supreme Court. One positive aspect of this troubling decision from Washington State has been the support from President Trump’s Justice Department (DOJ), which also sued over its new anti-Catholic law. The process would have been significantly different during the “Biden War on Christianity.”

In the coming weeks, we will outline and provide facts on how the previous administration weaponized the federal bureaucracy and the DOJ against Christians. A useful pre-read is Michael Rubin’s Op-Ed, “Why Does Biden Treat Christians with Disdain?” (Washington Examiner, April 10, 2024).

We must stay vigilant in safeguarding our religious freedoms. The slope is slippery, and liberty is lost one bill at a time. Thanks for reading!

When Pope John Paul III saw the signs—hatred of Christians, targeted attacks on faith, alliances formed in the shadows—he didn’t call a council. He called warriors. Gideon’s Sword is more than a Vatican op. It’s a lifeline to the Church in America. And Micah Miller—fallen, broken, lethal—is their tip of the spear. There’s no pulpit for what’s coming. Only battlefields. THE FALLEN — Read it before your church burns.

He served God. Then he served man. Now he serves justice.
Micah Miller was a soldier.
Then a priest.
Then, a husband who buried the woman he loved.
Now?
He’s something else entirely.
-Trained by the 75th Ranger Regiment.
-Forged in the crucible of loss.
-Skills perfected on the violent streets of Haiti
-Recruited by the Vatican to fight a war America won’t even admit exists.
They tried to erase the truth.
They tried to burn down the faith.
But they didn’t count on Micah.
Now he leads a covert team into the heart of American darkness—where child mutilation is praised, churches burn in silence, and powerful men hunt the innocent.
THE FALLEN isn’t just a thriller. It’s a warning shot.

President Bearden didn’t steal the White House. He bought it—with the souls of men too weak to say no. Now the puppet masters are pulling strings from behind the curtain, and the last obstacle standing in their way? A fallen priest with a guilty conscience and a Mossad agent who doesn’t forgive. When truth becomes treason, who will you trust? THE FALLEN — Read it before they bury it.

Micah Miller never wanted redemption. Not after burying his wife. Not after walking away from the priesthood. But when the Pope himself calls, you answer.
Now he’s on a mission that will shatter everything he thought he knew—about his Church, his country, and the war being waged behind closed doors.
If you think this is just fiction, think again.
The war on faith has already begun.
Read the book, they’ll say it’s too dangerous to publish.
