Big Day For Supreme Court It was a big day for the Supreme Court today and a good day for freedom-loving Americans in the face of growing government tyranny. The big decision was that of Hobby Lobby challenging the ObamaCare contraception mandate. In a 5-4 decision, the court ruled in favor of Hobby Lobby, stating that closely held corporations cannot be required to provide contraception coverage. What exactly does that mean? The scope of the decision is specific to a "closely held corporation" like Hobby Lobby, which is defined by the IRS as: Having more than 50% of the value of its outstanding stock owned (directly or indirectly) by 5 or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of the tax year; and Is not a personal service corporation. The Green family, which owns Hobby Lobby, asserted that the contraception mandate ran counter to their religious beliefs and that they should not be compelled by the government to provide coverage for certain types of birth control.

According to CNS News, "ISIS declared it was establishing a khalifah (caliphate, or Islamic state), changing its name from ISIS to 'the Islamic State,' and proclaimed its leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as 'caliph' - the political successor to Islam's 7th century founder, Mohammed." Their caliphate stretches from Syria through Iraq. The group also appears to have released a video, where they mock Obama by asking, "Obama, did you prepare enough diapers for your soldiers?" How serious is this caliphate and how strong is ISIS? It's hard to say, but what we are seeing is various al Qaeda groups pledging their support and aligning with ISIS. For example, the North African al Qaeda affiliate has pledged its support along with al Qaeda rebels battling the Assad regime in Syria. Meanwhile, you should also note that the Iraqi government has just purchased $500 million worth of warplanes from ... Russia! So we have Iran and Russia in the mix as radical jihadists collude to create a caliphate in the region. This is going well, isn't it?
