“A Southern California man pleaded guilty in federal court to sending fake ransom notes to Nancy Guthrie’s family shortly after her disappearance, prosecutors announced on July 2. Derrick Callella, 42, of Hawthorne, California, pleaded guilty to two counts of harassment using a telecommunication device at a federal courthouse in Tucson, Arizona, on July 2, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona. The charge has a maximum penalty of two years in prison and a potential fine of up to $250,000. … Nancy Guthrie was reported missing on the morning of Feb. 1 after she failed to show up at a friend’s house to watch a virtual church service. While the FBI obtained footage of an armed and masked individual captured by her Google Nest doorbell camera, investigators for months have been unable to identify a suspect behind her likely abduction.” (07/03/26)

by Roger Pilon
“Of all that makes America—the subject of this symposium—nothing has been more crucial or consequential than our having constituted ourselves as a people on sound moral, political, and legal principles—the ‘self-evident truths’ set forth in our Declaration of Independence and then instituted through our Constitution as corrected by the Civil War Amendments—for those principles are the very foundation of our liberty. Yet many Americans today seriously misunderstand them, while still others reject even their preconditions—reason, objectivity, and free speech.” (07/02/26)

“They could have died. We forget that now. After appeals to history and self-evident truths and the long train of abuses and usurpations, the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor to a cause that was not certain. To an idea as radical as their revolution. To a notion of a nation yet to be built.” (07/02/26)
