VP Vance zeroes in on El-Sayed during Michigan rally
In response to the Vance’s remarks, El-Sayed countered Monday with his own definition of “evil.”
“Evil is ripping healthcare away from working people in exchange for tax breaks for billionaires. Evil is making people pay more for groceries and gas while pushing for trade wars and actual war. Evil is dividing people for your own gain. Evil is selling out your morals for a little bit of power.
“Michigan is better than being lectured to by sock puppets from Ohio and Florida. We understand what’s at stake, and Michiganders will show you at the ballot box this November when we send Mike Rogers packing,” El-Sayed said in a press release...

Trump Says Religion Reduces Crime. Experts Disagree. | HuffPost Life
““Religion can have the opposite effect,” Adamczyk added. “We can think about murder and terrorism, and in some cases, religion is the motivating source for that.”
Belief in heaven and hell doesn’t appear to deter crime, either.
“Although there are people who choose not to commit crime in order to ‘go to heaven,’ empirical research does not indicate that is how religion generally works in reducing crime,” Jang said.
This distinction is found in a 2021 study by the Percy Foundation, a nonprofit that studies religion and criminal justice. Researchers interviewed 526 inmates and found that the majority were religious believers prior to their arrests.
Notably, 69.5% of sex offenders and 62.7% of the non-sex offenders said religious faith was “somewhat or very important” to them based on self-reported views prior to their arrests. While this is compared to 73% of adult men in the general U.S. population who say religion is “somewhat or very important,” according to a 2014 Pew survey, it’s still noteworthy that the majority of incarcerated men were religious before committing a crime. ”…

Americans United for Separation of Church and State said the event will advance Christian nationalism rather than religious freedom, and on Friday, a group of progressive faith leaders will host a virtual press briefing that argues Rededicate 250 misrepresents how America's founders approached religious tolerance.
As a counterpoint to the Rededicate event, Interfaith Alliance said it will team up with protest artist Robin Bell to project pro-religious freedom messages, including "Democracy NOT Theocracy" and "Reject Christian Nationalism," on the walls of the National Gallery of Art on Thursday evening…

Trump rails on affordability ‘hoax’ and immigrants in rally-style speech
The president has often dismissed concerns about prices as a "hoax" and a "con job" to suggest that he bears no responsibility for inflation. In an interview with the Politico news site released on Tuesday,
Trump was asked what grade he would give the economy. "A-plus-plus-plus-plus-plus," he replied… Trump also launched a racist attack on Democratic congresswoman Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, a Muslim born in Somalia. He said: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch. She's always complaining."
Trump went: "We ought to get her the hell out! She married her brother … Therefore she's here illegally." The crowd chanted: "Send her back!"
