Sorry to create a new thread, but could not find the earlier one to describe our early voting experience. (I did try!) Anyway, the Missus and I voted today in Rowan County, KY. It was fine: very relaxed and friendly, no lines at all. (Please assure Mr. Hinderaker at Powerline that I don't intend to change my vote for President Trump!) In fact, it felt so nice I may do it twice....

How do you worship when fear tries to take over your heart? For insight, look at the disciples when they were in a storm and Jesus was right there with them. “Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep. Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, ‘Lord, save us! We are perishing!’” (Matthew 8:23-25). Jesus got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it became perfectly calm. The men were...

I know you hate the timing, liberal media, but Joe Biden, his son Hunter, and his brother Jim might all be dirty. The Biden camp has yet to refute the scores of emails from Hunter Biden that weave a sordid and wide-reaching web of corruption. You already know about Hunter’s Burisma gig in Ukraine, where he was getting $50k/month to reportedly sell access to top Obama officials....

Explanation: Inspired by the halloween season, this telescopic portrait captures a cosmic cloud with a scary visage. The interstellar scene lies within the dusty expanse of reflection nebula IC 2118 in the constellation Orion, the Hunter.

Many political observers and everyday Americans say today’s tone is influenced and partly fueled by extremists on the far right and left.
