    Father, I pray you protect Donald Trump and JD Vance. I pray Your hedge of protection around them, their families and their campaigns. I pray Father that You reveal to the world the hidden things of darkness concerning the attempted assassination. I pray Father that any involvement of our government or any other government be fully exposed. Bring to light for others to witness the evil within our government and political foes. I pray Father that You anoint these two and guide them through these dark days. I know Your return is near and time is short. I pray Father...

    The family of a 76-year-old Kentucky man was awarded over $2 million for his death from second- and third-degree burns suffered in a scalding hot motel shower where water temperatures reached at least 150 degrees Fahrenheit. Court documents from the lawsuit alleged that Alex Chronis checked into the Econo Lodge in Erlanger, Kentucky, on Nov. 18, 2021. The next morning, he turned on the shower and was immediately struck by extremely hot water that knocked him to the floor while the water continued to burn him. The two people who were in the motel with Chronis heard his screams and...

    Ukraine is on its way to being able to “stand on its own feet” militarily, Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Friday, noting that more than 20 other countries have pledged to maintain their own military and financial aid to the country even if the U.S. were to withdraw its support under a different president. Blinken for the first time directly addressed the possibility that former President Donald Trump could win the November election and back away from commitments to Ukraine. Trump’s public comments have varied between criticizing U.S. backing for Ukraine’s defense and supporting it, while his running mate,...

    1 hour(s) ago PINNED Besieged Biden campaign sends lengthy memo making case to stay in The Biden campaign took a swipe at “anonymous” sources that have relayed concerns from within the Democratic Party about the president's candidacy as questions continue about his physical and mental state. Campaign Spokesperson Kevin Munoz highlighted Biden TV interviews this past week and support from Black women and Hispanic groups, while linking Trump to the conservative Project 2025 agenda, which has been portrayed as a blueprint for a future Republican administration, which he has disavowed. “Donald Trump and Republicans – despite claims of a 'new...

    [Catholic Caucus] Cardinal Cupich connects Eucharist to synodality at National Eucharistic CongressThe Eucharist can be thought of as a school for becoming a more synodal church, Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich said during a July 18 presentation at the National Eucharistic Congress.Addressing a hotel ballroom packed with a diverse audience of Catholics, Cupich made several connections between the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist, the central theme of the congress, and synodality."Whenever we take the Eucharist, we gradually become freer to take up the mission of Christ," Cupich said in his presentation, titled "Synodality as a Mode of Being Church."Cupich,...

    Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio called on President Joe Biden to end his re-election campaign Friday, becoming the fourth Democrat in the chamber to ask Biden to drop out of the race. Brown, according to his campaign, will not weigh in on the process to choose a new Democratic nominee and believes Biden should serve the rest of his term. Brown’s Trump-endorsed Republican opponent, businessman Bernie Moreno, has been linking him closely to Biden’s struggles for weeks. “Sherrod and Joe have been friends and political allies for many years,” said Moreno in a campaign statement earlier this month, “so does...

In a document setting out her programme ahead of a European Parliament vote on granting her another term, Von der Leyen said the effort would include flagship projects on air and cyber defence over the next five years. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the document reflected von der Leyen's "changing priorities" and said her proposals gave a "military colouring" to the European...
