Aug 17 (Reuters) - Former U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday he had canceled a press conference scheduled for next week to release a report into the 2020 election in Georgia, saying his attorneys would put his arguments in court filings instead. Trump said earlier this week that he would hold the press conference on Monday to release a detailed, 100-page report into what he described as "election fraud" in the state of Georgia during the 2020 election he lost to Democrat Joe Biden

Alliance Defending Freedom issued two letters Thursday concerning Planned Parenthood’s involvement in sex education curricula that an Arizona school district has considered in recent weeks–curricula that, if adopted, would likely violate a state law that requires preference to be given to abstinence, childbirth, and adoption, not abortion.  One of the letters exposes falsehoods in a recent Planned Parenthood Arizona e-mail about the pro-abortion group’s involvement in the Tempe Union High School District’s sex education curriculum considerations. The other letter asks the school district to recuse one of its board members from any consideration of the district’s adoption of sex education...

There is a remote, although gaining, possibility America's military will intervene as a last resort to resolve the "Obama problem." Don't dismiss it as unrealistic. America isn't the Third World. If a military coup does occur here it will be civilized. That it has never happened doesn't mean it wont. Describing what may be afoot is not to advocate it. So, view the following through military eyes:

Q I have an acquaintance who is studying in the United States on a student visa. In a social contact following the last national election, he made it clear he had voted. Since he is not a U.S. citizen, I was somewhat taken aback by this, so I questioned him. He said he simply went to the polls, presented a driver's license and was registered to vote. He rationalized that if it was so illegal for him to vote, then the poll judges should not have so readily accepted his eligibility, and he added that he felt he had a...

In the 1993 film "Groundhog Day," comedian Bill Murray played a television personality who found himself trapped in an endless, repetitive sequence of events. He was doomed to continuously relive the events of one day in his life as a weatherman assigned to cover the telltale behavior of a legendary Pennsylvania groundhog. The way this week started for George W. Bush, he must have felt a lot like Murray's ill-fated character. The president seems mired in an endless repeat of half-hearted actions by Iraq, inconclusive statements by United Nations weapons inspectors, stall-ball language from members of the U.N. Security Council,...
