Trump Cracks Down: Citizenship Test Getting Tougher
In a sweeping crackdown to restore national sovereignty and defend American workers, the Trump administration is unveiling a bold new phase of its immigration overhaul—reviving a tougher citizenship test, reforming the H‑1B visa system to prioritize higher-paid jobs for Americans, and exposing dangerous loopholes that have allowed gang members and violent criminals to gain legal status under the guise of protecting abandoned minors. At the heart of this effort is Joseph Edlow, who says the current naturalization test is too easy and fails to reflect the gravity of becoming a U.S. citizen. Under his leadership, USCIS is targeting fraud and abuse head-on, releasing a damning report showing that hundreds of MS-13 gang members infiltrated the country through a so-called protective program for immigrant youth. As Trump and Vice President JD Vance make it clear: the days of tech giants outsourcing labor and prioritizing globalism over American jobs are over. A new visa integrity fee and security-first approach underline this administration's core message—it's time to put America and its citizens first, once and for all.

Henry Louis "H.L." Mencken (1880)September 12, 2025
Often regarded as one of the most influential American writers of the early 20th century, Mencken was a journalist, satirist, social critic, and cynic known as the "Sage of Baltimore," for the city where he lived his entire life. Perhaps best remembered for his satirical reporting on the Scopes evolution trial, which he dubbed the "Monkey trial," Mencken was frequently critical of myriad institutions. Why did the Arkansas legislature pass a motion in 1931 to pray for Mencken's soul? Discuss

Festival of St. Nichiren's Pardon
At the Botamochi Temple in Kamakura, Japan, this festival honors St. Nichiren (1222-1282), considered to be Japan's most fervent Buddhist priest.

The Festival of Nichiren's Pardon is observed by members of the Nichiren sect with massive demonstrations and the loud chanting of prayers attributed to Nichiren, accompanied by the beating of drums. People make offerings of botamochi, rice balls covered with sweet bean paste, in his honor. Discuss
