EAST ST. LOUIS – The U.S. Department of Justice’s Civil Division and the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Illinois filed a complaint in federal court Thursday against the state of Illinois for policies directing financial support for illegal aliens that are not provided to non-resident U.S. citizens. “Illinois has an apparent desire to win a ‘race to the bottom’ as the country’s leading sanctuary state. It’s misguided approach mandating in-state tuition, scholarships, and financial aid to illegal aliens plainly violates federal law,” said U.S. Attorney Steven D. Weinhoeft. “This policy treats illegal aliens better than U.S. citizens living in other states and incentivizes even more illegal immigration, all on the taxpayer’s dime. Illinois citizens deserve better.” Federal law prohibits states from granting postsecondary education benefits, like in-state tuition or state financial aid, to illegal aliens unles

Did you know that people tend to spend up to 40% more time at the dining table when the setting is thoughtfully designed? The way a table is arranged can transform an ordinary meal into a memorable event, influencing mood, conversation, and even appetite. When hosting dinner parties, especially those with a fall theme, the tablescape becomes a powerful tool to engage guests and elevate the experience. Creating an inviting and cohesive fall-themed tablescape requires a blend of creativity, attention to detail, and an understanding of the elements that evoke the essence of autumn without resorting to clichés.

September 4th stands as a date marked by events that have shaped history across the globe. Arguably the most impactful event associated with September 4th is the tragic Munich Massacre of 1972. During the Summer Olympics in Munich, West Germany, a Palestinian terrorist group known as Black September took eleven members of the Israeli Olympic team hostage. The crisis unfolded over nearly a day, culminating in a disastrous rescue attempt at the Fürstenfeldbruck airbase. Sadly, all the hostages, along with five terrorists and one German police officer, lost their lives. This grim event exposed the vulnerabilities of international sporting events to terrorism and cast a long shadow over Olympic security protocols. The Munich Massacre not only affected international politics, leading to increased counterterrorism efforts worldwide, but also deeply impacted the Olympic movement and public consciousness about global conflict and violence. Moving backward in time, on September 4, 1888,
