Until recently, the United States was the biggest funder to the World Health Organization.

"With God all things are possible." That Bible quote (Matthew 19:26, New King James Version) hung two days ago on the door to the Recorder's office in the Lake County (Indiana) Government Center. It's visible to everyone entering or leaving the building through the main entrance. Recorder Gina Pimentel, re-elected in 2024 for a second four-year term, has posted campaign photos on Facebook that show her family posing in front of a church, or in front of a giant wooden cross (from which I cropped her three young children) and a post celebrating the National Day of Prayer.
