  <description>&lt;p&gt;Rod Blagojevich is back in the headlines, claiming newly released FBI records prove he never tried to sell Obama's old Senate seat. What those records actually show is Obama and Rahm Emanuel maneuvering over who would get it—a story the legacy media barely touched at the time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this episode of Restoration Spotlight, we're reopening the case with Restoration of America's John Pearman and Dan Curry, who watched it unfold in Illinois, and Restoring America host Grace Reilly. The panel walks through it all—from the federal wiretap that took Blagojevich down, to a Bush DOJ that held its fire on Obama's team, to an Obama DOJ that did the opposite to Trump's in 2016. We're not defending Blagojevich; we're asking why the people around him never paid a price.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Hyde Amendment has kept federal tax dollars from funding abortion for 50 years and saved an estimated 2.6 million lives, but there's plenty left to fix, from tax-subsidized abortion groups to a deeply divided country and millions of Christians who sit out elections—and our panel breaks it down.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Topics include:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;•  What newly released FBI records reveal about Obama and Rahm Emanuel&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;•  How the Bush and Obama DOJs handled presidential transitions&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;•  50 years of the Hyde Amendment and how taxpayers still subsidize abortion&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;•  Gen Z, socialism, and America's deepening political divide&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;•  Why millions of Christians who don't vote could change everything&lt;/p&gt;
