EXCERPT:

Attorneys for the Little Sisters of the Poor will appear before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit tomorrow to ask the court to block a nationwide ruling that rejected the Catholic nuns’ protection from the federal government’s abortion mandate.

The Little Sisters have spent more than a decade defeating government efforts to force them to provide abortifacient contraceptives in their healthcare plan or face tens of millions of dollars in fines.

That winning streak features three Supreme Court victories, including a 2020 ruling in Little Sisters of the Poor v. Pennsylvania upholding the federal conscience rule that protects the Sisters from the mandate.

I started my career as a high school history teacher back in 1985. I taught my students about the Holocaust every year and was fortunate enough one summer to be selected for a special National Endowment for the Humanities seminar for teachers, led by Professor Lawrence Langer, a leading Holocaust scholar. Professor Langer came up with the term the “choiceless choice” to describe the no-win situations Jews were put in during the Holocaust, when there was simply no real choice to be made in the face of the genocidal Nazis. The idea has stuck with me for four decades.

It came to mind again when I read a recent Washington Post article following the Supreme Court’s adverse ruling in our case, BPJ v. West Virginia, on June 30, in which Julian Mark writes, “Critics, including some trans rights advocates, say the movement has rushed to tee up causes that the court’s 6-3 conservative majority is not ready to embrace.” While elements of the article were thoughtful, it is based on a flawed premise that warrants exploration.

First of all, the idea that “the [LGBTQ+] movement has rushed to tee up [trans] causes” is completely off the mark. There have been 2,446 bills designed to limit the rights of LGBTQ+ people introduced into state legislatures since 2022 — at least one in every single one of our 50 states — and 255 of them have become law in 27 states. The large majority of these laws are aimed at trans people. The LGBTQ+ movement didn’t “tee up” these laws: the opponents of the LGBTQ+ movement did, because they saw a political advantage to be won by picking on a small and relatively powerless minority and cynically exploited it. In other words, we didn’t pick this fight. We didn’t “tee up” trans issues. Our opponents did.

A federal court has blocked the Trump administration from firing 19 intelligence officers assigned to DEI programs.

 

In a 2-1 decision, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that the Trump administration’s firings were illegal because they did not allow for an appeal or the opportunity for the 19 intelligence officers to request a reassignment.

The Court further ruled that the Trump administration illegally made the decision based on the anti-DEI executive order signed by President Donald Trump upon entering office rather than “workplace misconduct” or “performance concerns.”

Polling Data Shows That The Democrats Are Heading Into Trouble In The Midterms– www.louderwithcrowder.com

EXCERPT:

The math does not add up for the left, and polling data show they will have a much harder time picking up leads than they originally thought. This is because most sensible Americans do not appreciate how radical the party has become. And if you are surprised by this, you are probably a leftist buffoon.

According to CNN’s Data Analyst Harry Enten, the Democrats will need to pick up four seats and lead in at least one GOP-held seat in North Carolina if they hope to take back the Senate. The GOP currently leads six points in the key six swing states, with 53% saying the Democratic Party has gone too far left.

“On the mathematical march to four seats, there really is only one seat at this point that Democrats can look like they can count on,” Enten said.

While it is entirely possible they could win one or two of these seats, they need four, making this a “math problem,” according to Enten.

“These are states that are just very hard to win because, bottom line, what is holding them back is the fundamentals. And when you put it all together, and you look at the prediction marks, the chance to win the Senate, the environment is getting a little bit better for Republicans. There are seats on the table, but the fundamentals are against them,” Enten said. “Simply put, they have a statistical math problem.”

Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) laid out details on a new bill that would expand the U.S. Supreme Court, under a hypothetical Democrat president and Democrat-controlled Senate, by four justices in order to swing the court’s balance of power to the left.

“The Republicans stole two Supreme Court seats in 2016 and 2020. That’s what’s giving them their supermajority. The only way to solve this problem in a very short period of time is to expand the Supreme Court by four seats, up to 13,” Markey said during a recent appearance on MS-NOW.

“That would then restore the 7-6 majority, which should be in place right now. And we have to fight for that, and we can do that statutorily. It does not require a constitutional amendment,” he added. “That has to be at the top of the agenda, and that’s what I’m talking to my colleagues about right now.”

‘Citizen Vigilante’ Aims Popular Punisher Genre At Migrant Invaders– thefederalist.com

EXCERPT:

For all its B-movie trappings, Citizen Vigilante is the first of its kind: a film that sees the migrant crisis in Europe as a crisis for Europeans.

It is politically incorrect in the most provocative sense and, as such, was probably destined to be made by two people (director Uwe Boll and actor Armie Hammer) who have been routinely dragged through the mud and probably feel like they have nothing left to lose.

If the oft-ridiculed Boll and the scandal-plagued Hammer are both at a point where they have stopped caring what people think of them, then the strident tone of Citizen Vigilante reflects a growing outrage many people are feeling with regard to the migrant situation in Europe. The film is unambiguous in the way it opens with the superimposed location title “EUROPE” and closes with the stark dedication: “To the thousands of rape and murder victims in Europe who were betrayed by our legal system.”

The Vatican’s Dicastery of the Doctrine of Faith headed by scandal-plagued Cardinal Manuel (“Tucho”) Fernandez released a decree of excommunication this morning declaring the six bishops of the Society of St. Pius X automatically excommunicated following the consecration of four new bishops without papal approval.

The decree states that the consecrator Bishop Alfonso de Galarreta and the four newly consecrated bishops (Pascal Schreiber, Michael Goldade, Michel Poinsinet de Sivry, and Marc Hanappier) have incurred latae sententiae excommunication. Bishop Bernard Fellay was also declared excommunicated for serving as co-consecrator.

The document goes further, labeling all SSPX priests as schismatics subject to excommunication and declaring that confessions heard by them and marriages they witness are invalid.

The decree also warns the faithful who formally adhere to the SSPX could face excommunication. It urges Catholics to remain in full communion with the Pope Leo XIV and to abstain from participating in Masses and activities promoted by the Society.

  • A federal judge blocked the Trump administration’s restrictions on the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program, citing violations of free speech rights for borrowers engaging in lawful activities such as supporting immigrants and teaching inclusion.
  • Judge Joun criticized the lack of justification for the rule, which could potentially disqualify borrowers based on vague accusations of illegal activity, asserting that the administration cannot create new criminal prohibitions through rulemaking.
  • The PSLF program, which provides loan forgiveness for government and non-profit workers after ten years of service, has helped over one million borrowers since its inception, while the recent ruling aligns with a broader legal challenge from multiple states and organizations against the administration’s policies.

Three people were taken into custody after a CBS News Chicago reporting crew was attacked while preparing for a live broadcast near Chicago’s Adler Planetarium, an incident that authorities say escalated from verbal harassment into a violent assault that damaged news equipment and a station vehicle.

The journalists were not physically injured, but the attack has renewed concerns about the safety of reporters working in the field. The incident unfolded shortly before 4:30 p.m. Monday on East Solidarity Drive, where a CBS News Chicago reporter and photographer were setting up for the station’s afternoon newscast.

According to CBS, three men arrived in a white tow truck and quickly confronted the crew without warning. Witnesses told the station the encounter became hostile almost immediately.

One of the suspects shouted racial slurs directed at one of the journalists before ordering a dog to attack. Police said the animal did not engage, but the confrontation continued to escalate. Witnesses said the dog appeared to be used as a means of intimidation before the other suspects joined the confrontation.

With America’s 250th anniversary approaching this Saturday, just 14 percent of Democrats described themselves as “extremely proud” to be an American, according to a new Gallup poll, as national pride hits a new low.

After the Sept. 11 attacks, national pride was at a high. Through 2004, 65 to 70 percent of poll respondents felt extremely proud, according to Gallup data from the time. Yet, each year since 2018, less than half of respondents reported extreme pride.

As other polls have also shown, this data highlights a widening partisan gap when it comes to national pride. This year, there was a 56-point gap between Republicans and Democrats, with 70 percent of Republicans and 14 percent of Democrats claiming they were “extremely proud.”

Democrats and the propaganda press seem intent on fueling this lack of national pride, as demonstrated by corporate media’s response to the

Iranian negotiator calls deal struck with U.S. a “declaration of America’s defeat”

Iran’s chief negotiator called the deal it struck with the U.S. “a declaration of America’s defeat” on Wednesday.

“The Islamabad understanding was not the result of pressure and coercion, but rather the result of the resistance and authority of the brave Iranian nation,” Iran’s top negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said Wednesday of the agreement signed last week.

“That is why, the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding became a declaration of America’s defeat,” he said, adding that security in the Middle East must be ensured by the countries of the region.

President Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed the agreement last week, launching a designated 60-day negotiating period during which Pakistani and other mediators hope to bring the two sides to a permanent settlement to end the war.

WASHINGTON — WASHINGTON (AP) — The Pentagon has told senators it needs roughly $80 billion, mostly to cover the cost of the U.S. war against Iran, adding to what is already a sizable military spending boost being sought by President Donald Trump.
