trying to usurp Congress by simply passing legislation adopting reasonable
changes: creating a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants who have
lived here for years and stayed out of trouble and are willing to pay a fine;
allowing guest farm workers; and increasing the number of legal immigration
slots for foreigners who earn advanced degrees in technical fields from U.S.
universities. Those changes were part of the bipartisan "Gang of Eight" bill
pushed in 2013 by such GOP senators as John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Marco
Rubio. It died in the House after clearing the Senate.)

-- Corvettes for Christ
omission from parade unfair - CHAPLAIN JOHN KALASHIAN (DIERSEN: I had the honor
of speaking with Mr. Kalashian at the Bloomington Gold Corvette Show in
Indianapolis last Saturday morning.)http://journaltimes.com/print_specific/column/byline/corvettes-for-christ-omission-from-parade-unfair/article_59bd4f2f-1afb-5c9a-8c7c-7ca8e10d10af.html(FROM
THE ARTICLE: Recently, Lovdahl and Racine’s Fourth Fest board made a
determination to ban Corvettes for Christ from entering and operating its
gospel-decorated motor home and trailer in the July 4 parade. Their cited
reasons for their unfortunate action were based on: Categorizing Corvettes for
Christ as a business involved in advertising No decorations on the trailer
Message of our ministry was represented by one man (me) Sadly, the board is
wrong in their judgments while refusing to accept the relevant facts and truth
surrounding their discriminating action. First of all, Corvettes for Christ is a
federally-recognized religious nonprofit organization, not a business such as
the American Professional Driving School, which Lovdahl improperly compared us
to. Our religious ministry is commanded by God to go out unto the outer most
parts of the earth with "The Good News" of Jesus Christ. Lovdahl, for your
information, this is not called advertising. It is called God’s Great
Commission. Corvettes for Christ is not about building a business, but rather
about building the Church of Jesus Christ. As a nonprofit, we do accept
tax-exempt donations, but our costs of operating and maintaining the ministry
far exceed any financial support we may receive. Secondly, the gospel motor home
and trailer is in fact decorated and has involved great investments of time and
money, equaling and exceeding many float entries in the parade. The gospel motor
home and trailer are decorated in the spirit of what our country was founded on
— faith in God. We honor the men and women who sacrificed to protect and
guarantee our freedom in the world, and we should honor God who provided divine
direction to our Founding Fathers and ultimately sacrificed his Son Jesus Christ
to free us from sin. This is the message of the beautiful large white cross
decorated on the trailer — a message of hope and freedom. Thirdly, Lovdahl
states that Corvettes for Christ should enter the parade in a "more efficient"
way, as it is represented by one man (me). His comment indicates that he fails
to understand that the message of the cross is central and vital on our gospel
trailer. When he denies Corvettes for Christ the use of its gospel trailer, he
denies us the opportunity of what he proposes, to efficiently proclaim the
gospel. It is our gospel trailer that provides a decoration of a large white
cross and the motivational scripture of Hebrews 12:1-2, to run our life race
with Jesus Christ. When we are denied the use of our gospel-decorated trailer,
we are then denied one of our ministries primary methods of conveying the Good
News of the Cross. It’s not about me, as Lovdahl apparently believes, but rather
it’s about the cross and its message of salvation and hope. The Fourth of July
represents our freedom made possible by the unselfish sacrifices of many men and
women. Let’s not forget that our country was founded on Judeo-Christian
principles and our faith in God, a God who unselfishly sacrificed his Son to
free us from sin. God and Country, this is what makes our country great. And
what makes for a great parade.)

leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. stand up for a) those who

seem to trust Trump more, making them ripe for persuasion. While just 36 percent
of all respondents told pollsters that Trump is “standing up for” their beliefs,
63 percent of white evangelicals said Trump is — far more than white
non-evangelical Protestants (48 percent), white Catholics (40 percent), and
voters of no religion (27 percent).)

MONEY MAGAZINE
-- How Companies Block Your Day in
Court - Megan Leonhardt http://time.com/money/4362582/forced-arbitration/(FROM
THE ARTICLE: Your checking account balance is wiped out because of a massive
fraud. The bank failed to protect you, but you can’t sue. Why? You’ve signed a
contract barring you from taking it to court. If that sounds surprising, you
have company. Three out of four people surveyed by the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau last year did not know whether they had signed away their
right to bring a lawsuit against a financial company. That’s because these
restrictions—known as mandatory arbitration clauses—are usually hidden in
contract fine print. Yet they’re pervasive. If you watch videos on Netflix or
shop on Amazon, you’re governed by one of these clauses. Ditto, most likely, if
you have a cell phone plan with a major provider; you may even see them in
nursing-home and employment contracts. The clauses force you to use a private
forum to settle disputes—giving up the judicial system for one that, opponents
say, has an inherent bias against consumers. “The problem with arbitration is
that the arbitrators often come down on the side of the company and have cozy
relationships with industry,” says consumer class action attorney Carl
Mayer.)
