"But God Meant It For Good" 

Christians and Jews are very familiar with the story of Joseph, found

Racism, Sin & America, Stop Importing Hate, What Two-State Solution

Racism, Sin & America 

There are new reports today on what motivated Dylann Roof to carry out his murderous rampage in Charleston, South Carolina. He reportedly plotted this attack for six months and hoped to start a race war. This thug (yes, that is exactly what he is) with a drug-addled brain embraced a particular evil, the undeniable sin of racism.

Carnage In Charleston 

Last night, Dylann Storm Roof walked into the Emmanuel AME church in Charleston, South Carolina, during a Wednesday evening Bible study. According to a church elder, Roof was there "not so much as a participant, but as a brief observer who then stood up and then started shooting."

Jeb Jumps In, Trump-Carson-Sanders, Left Gets Religion

Jeb Jumps In 

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush yesterday formally declared his candidacy for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. His announcement showed all the hallmarks of a well-financed campaign -- excellent choreography and lots of energy. 

As expected, Bush highlighted his record as governor of Florida. And he also struck a few notes likely to appeal to a broad spectrum of voters. For example, Bush made it clear that he intends to run against Washington, as an outsider, when he said:

Iran Says No Inspections 

You are going to hear more about President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran as the June 30th deadline approaches. The rhetoric will be muddled and at times intentionally so. For example, Obama may say one thing while Iran says the exact opposite. 

Keep this report handy. Set it aside and re-read it in the weeks ahead.

Why Obamatrade? 

Wherever you are on free trade, Senator Jeff Sessions raised a serious objection earlier this week to the Obamatrade bill Congress has been debating this week. Here's what Senator Sessions said:
 

"Congress won't tell the American people what's in the fast track bill until it's passed and too late to take it back. By the time the fast track bill is passed, Congress will have unilaterally suspended the ability to amend it. This isn't how a republic is supposed to function -- with no consent of the governed."

"Historic Blunder" 

A key House Foreign Affairs subcommittee yesterday heard testimony from defense and nonproliferation experts regarding President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran. The hearing also tackled the issue of Iran's ballistic missile program, which is often ignored in the larger debate about its nuclear ambitions. 

Ambassador Robert Joseph, an arms control expert, told members of Congress that Obama's Iranian nuclear deal "will represent perhaps the single greatest strategic mistake in the national security area in the past 35-plus years."

Obama's Modern Military, Out-Of-Touch On Trade, Floundering Foreign Policy

Obama's Modern Military 

Pastor Brad Whitt of Abilene Baptist Church in Augusta, Georgia, is in shock. For the first time in 20 years, the U.S. Army is refusing to provide an honor guard from nearby Fort Gordon for the church's annual Independence Day celebration. 

Why? Because of a 2011 regulation imposed by the Obama Administration declaring that the Army cannot participate in any event "involving the promotion, endorsement or sponsorship of a religious movement."

Jerusalem Reality Check, What Are Children Singing, Still No Strategy

Jerusalem Reality Check 

The Supreme Court issued a disappointing decision yesterday. Six justices ruled that Congress could not require the State Department to issue passports for Americans born in Jerusalem with "Israel" listed as their place of birth. That Jerusalem is in Israel might seem obvious enough, but the Obama Administration fought the law.

Sadly, six justices declared that the law was a violation of the president's authority to recognize nations. Writing for the court's majority, Justice Anthony Kennedy declared:
