In beginning God said “let us make man in our own image and likeness”. So, after creating everything out of nothing with the eye of an artist for the colors of life, He wanted a being with a soul, with a heart to love and communicate with. This is the greatest love story ever told; that God knew that man would sin and choose to fall out of fellowship, however, He is the all knowing God. So instead of not giving man a free will to choose, He knew that for love to be true it had to be freely...

Biden and Blinken may associate acquiescence to Berlin with sophisticated diplomacy and may assume that Germany stands for the same values as the United States, but this would be a mistake. Simply put, Germany is neither a good ally nor does its leadership share the same liberal, democratic worldview as the United States. When Russia’s Gazprom and European partners announced plans to expand pipelines carrying Russian gas to Europe, eight European Union members and the Obama administration raised objections. Not only would Nord Stream 2 make Europe more dependent on Russian gas but, by rendering the existing pipeline across Ukraine...

When asked if House Democrats would be pursuing further action against Omar during a press conference, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., didn’t even let the reporter finish his question before answering in the negative. "I think that she clarified her remarks and we accept that, and she has a point that she wanted to make and she has a right to make that point," Pelosi said. "There's some unease about how it was interpreted." "She made her clarification," Pelosi added before moving onto the next question.

The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled that a trove of files related to murder victims Barry and Honey Sherman be unsealed and opened to public access. The unanimous decision found that trustees of the wealthy Toronto couple's estate failed to establish a major risk to their safety and privacy, and that public interest and the principle of open court proceedings require unlocking the files. "In this case, the risks to privacy and physical safety cannot be said to be sufficiently serious," Justice Nicholas Kasirer wrote. "The sealing orders should not have been issued. Open courts can be a source...

Monroe County Legislator Ernest Flagler-Mitchell is hearing new demands for his resignation -- this time from his allies in the legislature. Republican Monroe County Legislature President Dr. Joe Carbone is now joining Democrats in calling for Legislator Ernest Flagler-Mitchell to resign following numerous allegations of sexual abuse from 13 women. Carbone says Republicans worked behind the scenes to encourage Flagler-Mitchell to resign, but he refused.

... Laws setting guiderails for classroom instruction on race passed this year in Republican-controlled states have left some teachers worried about how they will be enforced. Particularly in districts with large numbers of people of color, educators say they worry everyday discussions about students’ experiences could land teachers in hot water. In response to a push for culturally responsive teaching that gained steam following last year’s police killing of George Floyd, Republican lawmakers and governors have championed legislation to limit the teaching of material that explores how race and racism influence American politics, culture and law. The measures have become...

A school board member gave a graduation speech in which she told a mainly-immigrant class of high schoolers that they were entering a world filled with “racism, extreme versions of individualism and capitalism, [and] white supremacy,” and encouraged them to remember their “jihad” and reject the concepts of objectivity and neutrality. Fairfax County school board member Abrar Omeish gave the keynote address at the commencement for Justice High School in Falls Church, Virginia on June 7. The ceremony began with a ceremony in which JROTC military cadets were the only people at the graduation who wore masks. The class president...

Democrats are famous for treating the men and women who would take a bullet for them as their personal valet service. But few seem to be taking it quite to the level that Kamala Harris has. It ought to be no surprise that she's constantly making life hell for them. Latest such incident was Harris's insistence on marching in a loud crowd at the gay pride parade in Washington, D.C. According to Fox News: Vice President Kamala Harris made a surprise appearance at the Pride event in Washington on Saturday but it was one of her protectors who drew the...

The summit between the two presidents is expected to take place in Geneva, Switzerland on 16 June, and it will be their first meeting since Joe Biden's inauguration earlier this year. Regional conflicts in Syria and Libya, global security threats, and environmental issues are expected to be on the agenda. The recent wave of ransomware attacks across the US may also be brought up during the talks, as the American authorities repeatedly claimed that some of the hackers behind them may reside in Russia. Commenting on the issue, Russian President Vladimir Putin noted that Moscow would be ready to hand...

... As rising murder rates gain attention in American cities, Republicans have ramped up a misleading campaign to cast Democrats as anti-police and lax on public safety. It’s a message they believe helped them stave off greater Democratic gains in last year’s elections and one with renewed potency as cities consider cuts to department budgets as part of an effort to revamp policing. It’s not at all clear that the GOP strategy, which stretches back to President Richard Nixon and was used by President Donald Trump, is a winning one. But it may be prominent as Republicans search for ways...

Australian Sky News pundits laugh at how the U.S. corporate media hype the JoeBama administration while the world laughs at the G7 pantomime on display. At least one news agency is honest…. Once you see the strings on the marionettes you can never watch the pantomime and not see them; regardless of how hard the media attempts to proclaim the contrary…

WASHINGTON, Wednesday, June 12. The one topic of conversation is the disaster at Great Bethel. The details give a gratifying diminution of the number of killed and wounded, but that does not atone for the failure of the expedition. The blame fully rests upon Gen. PIERCE, who, it is established, became confused, and unable to comprehend the situation, and to give the necessary order. Either Col. DURYEE or Col. TOWNSEND, it is commonly remarked, would have produced a different result had they been entrusted with the command. Lieut. J.H. BUTLER, nephew of Gen. BUTLEE, has arrived here with dispatches to...

The lesson of this week’s leak of billionaires’ tax returns isn’t that taxes are too low, the rich should pay more or any of the other claims the leak was designed to support. The lesson is that Republicans must realize that Democrats are no longer their only political foe. They face an equally potent and dangerous federal bureaucracy—committed to destroying GOP officials and propelling a liberal agenda. ProPublica claims not to know who provided the confidential tax data of thousands of American citizens, including some of the nation’s wealthiest people. The left-leaning media outlet acknowledges it ran its piece even...

Vice President Kamala Harris is in the ultimate no-win position when it comes to visiting the U.S./Mexico border. If she doesn’t go, she is shirking her responsibility, if she does, she will be politically damaged by the trip for a lifetime. Imagine the photo-op that would stick with Harris for as long as Google, Facebook, Amazon and Twitter would allow it. She would either be in front of the wall that Donald Trump built, an overflowing child detention facility posing with children in cages, or an opening in the wall that isn’t completed and serves as a passageway for illegal...
