BOB UNRUH — Joe Biden spent much of the evening appearing to look down at his podium as President Donald Trump accused him of making the United States a "rat's nest" at the presidential debate Thursday on CNN. And Biden made several false claims about Trump. On the border, through which Biden has allowed millions of illegal aliens to come, Trump said, "All he had to do was leave it alone. He decided to open up our border." It's one of the major concerns for voters this year.... (more)

PETE RIEHM — Americans are generally dejected. By every metric, nothing in America is going well. At least two-thirds of Americans, according to polling, believe the country is going in the wrong direction. Economic hardships and international threats will come and go, but Americans have always had the character and grit to face whatever challenges were hurled their way. However, a deepening moral malaise is eroding character and weakening grit. With social ills ever spiraling into contagion, there is a lingering despair hanging over America. The root of the problem is that one of the most fundamental building blocks of a vibrant, vigorous nation – strong families – has been increasingly decimated the entire past half-century.... (more)

STEPHEN STONE — About ten years ago, I took my favorite traditional Irish tune, Gaftai Baile Bui, added lyrics, and turned it into an “Independence Day anthem” that spoke from an unapologetically Americanist viewpoint appropriate to the Fourth of July. The song has been performed publicly only once—at a Daughters of the Utah Pioneers gathering that our oldest daughter was in charge of in 2015. On that occasion, the song was sung by a close friend of our family, Denis Sorenson, lead singer of the 1960s Capital Records folk group “The Three Ds,” which in the 60s consisted of Denis and his two highly talented associates, Duane Hiatt and Dick Davis....

JERRY NEWCOMBE — Did the founders create America as “one nation under God,” or did they want Christian expression banned from the public square? A recent film seems to promote the latter idea. Dr. Ted Baehr’s MOVIEGUIDE writes: “’Bad Faith’ is a propaganda documentary from the Religious Left, written and directed by a small-time movie producer who happens to be a film and television professor at a Catholic college in Los Angeles. The movie accuses Evangelical Christian conservatives and Republican Christians, from the 1980s to the present day, of waging a racist war against ‘American Democracy.’ The movie uses leftist, progressive pundits, professors, authors, journalists, and activists to make its claims.”...
