Arts and crafts giant Hobby Lobby faced a backlash after it ran a full-page advertisement on July 4 in several newspapers across the U.S. that appeared to call for a Christian-run government. The advert, which Hobby Lobby ran in newspapers on Independence Day, was titled "One Nation Under God," and included the Bible verse "Blessed is the Nation whose God is the lord," as the company also posted about its campaign on its social media pages.
ROME - The Vatican’s bioethics academy and the World Medical Association on Friday called for an all-out effort to combat vaccine hesitancy and correct the “myths and disinformation” that are slowing the fight against the coronavirus.(Snip)They demanded that “all relevant stakeholders exhaust all efforts to...confront vaccine hesitancy by sending a clear message about the safety and necessity of vaccines and counteracting vaccine myths and disinformation.”(Snip)At a news conference Friday, representatives of the groups strongly rejected claims and questions about vaccine safety and ethics from reporters representing conservative and right-wing Catholic media organizations who complained that vaccine skeptics weren’t included among the speakers.
In a statement, Court Administrator Scott Stewart said the two municipal judges and Clerk of Courts Ted Kalo adopted a policy requiring vaccinations against the virus “Out of concern for the health and safety of the people of our community who are required to attend court proceedings.” (Snip) He said staff members were notified approximately six to eight weeks ago, with a deadline of July 2 to receive or schedule their first dose of a vaccination. In Kalo’s office, he is using vaccination cards as proof. Court employees who refuse vaccinations and are not exempt for medical reasons will be terminated,

and screaming as Ohio Republican

Furious Democrats have behaved “childishly” by yelling and pounding their desks while Ohio Republican Jena Powell attempted to speak on an amendment to a state bill banning biological males from female sports. Jena Powell attempted to add an amendment to the Ohio NIL bill - the ‘Name.Image, Likeness’ bill - which allows college athletes to profit off their name, image and likeness. Ms Powell’s amendment would see biological males banned from competing in female sports.(Snip) “It’s crucial to preserving women’s rights and the integrity of women’s and girls’ sports,” she said.“Across our country, female athletes are currently losing scholarships, opportunities, medals, education and training opportunities.”
Barack Obama turns 60 over the summer.(Snip)Once the symbol of youthful hipness, the former boss of Hope and Change now lectures “young people” on what they should be doing. His legacy is being carried forward by 78-year-old Biden and the 81-year-old Pelosi.(Snip)History is radically revised every generation not just for what it teaches, but for what it doesn’t.(Snip)But how does a new generation learn from a past that isn’t allowed to exist on its own terms? Demonizing the past is a convenient way of obscuring it.(Snip)There’s no change without crisis, and without hope, there’s only hate.
WELLINGTON — The Ohio Republican Party estimates 20,000 to 25,000 people attended the “Save America” rally Saturday. Lorain County Republican Party Chairman David Arredondo said he'd personally estimated about 20,000 people were in attendance at former President Donald Trump’s first rally since leaving office. Arredondo said state Party Chair Bob Paduchik confirmed 20,000 to 25,000 attended the event held near the Lorain County Fairgrounds. He said it was a significant number of people, given the nine day notice attendees had for the event. What other personality--former president, rock star or actor--could pull this kind of crowd together on a short notice?” Arredondo said.
Same old Trump plays Wellington

Like a washed-up singer reliving his glory days, former President Donald Trump largely stuck to his greatest hits when he kicked off his “Revenge Tour” Saturday in Wellington.(Snip)Even his reading of the cautionary tale “The Snake,” which describes a snake biting a woman who saved it from freezing to death,(Snip)He has largely used the snake as a metaphor for immigrants, one of his favorite targets, but it actually works better if one thinks of Trump as the snake.(Snip)He continued to pump venom into American democracy Saturday, insisting that he had won the 2020 presidential election in a “landslide.”
WELLINGTON — With windows and bumpers proclaiming "Trump won" and "Biden sucks," vehicles from all over the United States were parked Friday afternoon at the Lorain County Fairgrounds. They came from near and far--from New York to California, Michigan to Tennessee, Pennsylvania to Indiana--for the chance to see former President Donald Trump. (Snip) The forecast calls for possible thunderstorms to sweep through Wellington early in the day, probably giving way to cloudy skies before the rally gates open at 2 p.m., according to the National Weather Service.
Democrats Need a Day of Atonement

With the creation of June 19th ("Juneteenth") as a federal holiday, Democrats have one more claim to be the party of civil rights and equal opportunity for African Americans, though most Republicans also voted for the holiday. That claim has been promoted for decades by a compliant media, academia and high-profile politicians, but the facts say otherwise. From Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 to the mid-20th century, members of the Democratic Party, dominant in the South due to its opposition to civil and political rights for African Americans, were on the wrong side of civil rights.
When I read “To Kill A Mockingbird” for the first time--and every time since--I invariably pictured my father as Atticus Finch.(Snip)After I read of how Atticus gently sat Scout down on the porch swing and explained our imperfect world to her childish ears, I thought of each time my dad would do the same when I discovered some new hurt or crisis. His explanations of the deep obligations of integrity sounded like the heartfelt lessons in which my dad explained to me the importance of doing what’s right.(Snip)My dad taught me to respect and expect integrity, sacrifice, and wisdom from men.
What to make of Trump coming to town
14 replies
Why us? Of all the fairgrounds in all the towns in all the country, why is former President Donald Trump coming to the Lorain County Fairgrounds?(Snip)The problem is that Trump is not your normal ex-president turned elder statesman. He has taken a sledgehammer to the foundation of democracy. He has continued to insist that the 2020 election was stolen from him, despite no evidence of widespread voter fraud.(Snip) He called his followers to Washington on Jan. 6 for a rally(Snip)He and his allies gave speeches in which they argued that the election was stolen before sending the enraged crowd marching toward the Capitol.

President Joe Biden on Wednesday called for the education system to be expanded from 12 years to 14 years for all Americans to make the US more competitive on a global scale. His speech in Illinois drew about 100 protesters holding signs supporting Donald Trump. McHenry County, where Biden made his remarks, went for the former president in the 2020 election. One large sign read: 'Make America Proud Again.' Biden's focus during his daylong trip is on his plan for free childcare and the education component of his 'human' infrastructure package that he will push to pass Congress without Republican votes. In addition to his call for more, free education,
Utah’s Black Lives Matter chapter has labeled everyone who flies an American flag “a racist” in a Facebook screed posted over the Independence Day holiday, reports noted on Thursday. “When we Black Americans see this flag we know the person flying it is not safe to be around,” says the post. “When we see this flag we know the person flying it is a racist. “When we see this flag we know that the person flying it lives in a different America than we do. When we see this flag, we question your intelligence. We know to avoid you. It is a symbol of hatred,” the post continued.
Barry Diller made his name in the film industry as the chairman and CEO of two Hollywood studios, Paramount Pictures and what was then 20th Century Fox. Now, he is declaring the industry dead.
"The movie business is over," Diller said in an exclusive interview with NPR on the sidelines of the Allen & Company Sun Valley Conference, a media and technology conference in Idaho. "The movie business as before is finished and will never come back."
Yes, that has to do with a substantial decline in ticket sales and the closure of movie theaters during the coronavirus pandemic.
Toyota Motor Corp (7203.T) said on Thursday its political action committee will halt donations to U.S. members of Congress who voted against President Joe Biden's election certification in January.

As we expected, the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR) issued its revised guidelines on stem cells and embryo experiments at the end of May 2021, and as expected, the ISSCR recommendations are rife with proposed experiments on young human beings.
The new guidelines discard the 14-day limit on human embryo experiments in favor of no limits whatsoever, and they allow virtually unrestricted manufacture of human-animal chimeras of any type, as well as creation of genetically altered human embryos and lab constructed human embryo “models.” Very little is left in the category of “currently not permitted.”
Thanks to a series of leaks from the hard drive of Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop computer, we know there is more than enough evidence to appoint a special counsel, or at least convene a grand jury to investigate bribery, tax fraud, and probably several other categories of crime involving the Biden Crime Family. (snip) A mildly curious US Attorney ought to be able to get a grand jury to subpoena the financial records of the Biden clan on this basis. (snip) We understand why none of this is happening – yet. Biden is serving his purpose (snip) But the drip, drip, drip continues and accumulates.
A Turkish bodybuilder and fitness model who moved to the US to flex her muscles away from her conservative country was reportedly banned from boarding her American Airlines flight in Texas because her attire was deemed offensive. Deniz Saypinar, 26, a social media personality who was the first woman in Turkey to be given status by the International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness, recently move to Los Angeles to pursue her career and “experience freedom,” the Daily Mail reported. But the ripped influencer got stuck at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport on Thursday when American Airlines flight attendants took issue with her fashion sense
Knowing which Americans have been vaccinated is “absolutely the government’s business,” Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra said Thursday.
Speaking to CNN, the HHS secretary was responding to criticism of President Biden’s comments Tuesday about going “door to door, literally knocking on doors” to get wary Americans vaccinated against the coronavirus. “It is absolutely the government’s business, it is taxpayers’ business, if we have to continue to spend money to try to keep people from contracting COVID and helping reopen the economy,” Becerra told the network, noting the government has had to “spend trillions of dollars to try to keep Americans alive during this pandemic.”
Dr. Anthony Fauci appeared on MSNBC on Wednesday and slammed unvaccinated Americans, telling them to “get over this political statement.”
“This is not complicated. We’re not asking anybody to make a political statement one way or another,” Fauci said during a segment of “All in with Chris Hayes” on MSNBC. “We’re saying, try to save your life, and that of your family, and that of your community.”
“We have so many things, as you said, so many diseases that I deal with that don’t have solutions,” Fauci continued. “It’s very frustrating. You don’t have a treatment, you don’t have a vaccine.

Government ethics watchdogs and art critics alike are voicing their concerns as first son Hunter Biden prepares for his first solo art exhibition this fall—where paintings from the former lawyer and lobbyist are expected to fetch between $75,000 and $500,000 and buyers will remain anonymous.
“The whole thing is a really bad idea,” Richard Painter, chief ethics lawyer for President George W. Bush, told the Washington Post.(Snip) Walter Shaub, who led the Office of Government Ethics under President Barack Obama, told the paper that the art buyers having their identities protected created a host of problems. “Because we don’t know who is paying
Health experts in the United States have raised the alarm that vaccinated individuals might be spreading the Covid-19 Delta variant, as cases surge in states across the country. The highly transmissible Delta variant now makes up more than half of new infections in the US.(Snip)Christopher Murray, director of the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation, told Insider that the spread of the Delta variant could actually be worse than current data suggests. “CDC guidance is not to test the vaccinated [unless they’re symptomatic], so we’re probably missing a bunch of transmission in vaccinated individuals,” Mr Murray said, who is the lead modeller at the IHME,
