The Handmaid’s Tale is often framed as a warning about America’s future but is it rewriting America’s past? Author Margaret Atwood has argued that the story reflects real historical patterns.

But Dr. Phil and historian and author Danny Stein challenge that claim, arguing the story is pure fiction that misrepresents and attacks America’s religious roots.

Families of girls killed in the Camp Mystic flood lay out their case: four lawsuits alleging negligence and gross negligence, a history of deadly flooding they say the camp chose to ignore, and emergency instructions that told children to stay in cabins as waters rose. They respond to Camp Mystic’s claim that the flood was “unprecedented,” talk about the new Heaven’s 27 Camp Safety Act and Youth CAMPER Act, and share how their daughters’ legacies are driving a fight for accountability so no other parent endures the same loss.

Nick Reiner faces charges of parricide, the killing of a parent by their child. It is one of the rarest crimes, and one of the most disturbing because it violates one of the most basic human bonds.

Parents are supposed to protect their children. Children are not supposed to fear — or kill — their parents.

This video examines the Nick Reiner murder trial, the meaning of parricide, and the warning signs and psychological factors experts say often precede these rare cases.

White House Border Czar Tom Homan returns to visit with Dr. Phil and share what he sees as real results on the border—fewer illegal crossings, more resources for officers, and a renewed focus on public safety. In this respectful, straightforward conversation, Dr. Phil also asks Homan to weigh in on the deadly events in Minneapolis, and Homan offers his candid take on what happened and how it connects to his broader views on law and order. Dr. Phil gives him the space to explain his decisions, highlight the accomplishments he’s most proud of, and respond to concerns about how these policies affect families on all sides of the issue.​

Parents who sent their daughters to Camp Mystic, an all‑girls Christian camp on the Guadalupe River, relive the joy of that summer and the horror of the flash flood that followed. They describe the girls they lost, the riverside cabins in “Flash Flood Alley,” and the moments they realized this was not just a freak storm, but a preventable disaster they say was made worse by bad policies, missed warnings, and a camp that promised their children would be safe.​
