I go to church, I love God, and I love my church – Trump
I go to church, I love God, and I love my church – TrumpThe President of United state of American, Donald Trump was said to have not attended church services after his inauguration, despite his opines at 2015 gathering hosted by Christian conservatives in Iowa, “I’m Protestant, I’m Presbyterian, I go to church, I love God, and I love my church.”

This was reported on Sunday by Associated Press (AP) news and Concord Monitor, based in US. However, it was reported that on Easter Sunday’s arrival, Donald Trump has yet to attend a church service in the Capital since the worship events of his inauguration weekend in January. Trump is spending the holiday at his private Palm Beach club, Mar-a-Lago, where he often weekends. The White House isn’t saying if he plans to attend Easter services, but last year, he attended the nearby Episcopalian church where he and Melania Trump were married. It was also reported that while he was a candidate he attended the nearby Episcopalian church where he and Melania Trump were married.
Vanguard gathered that where a president worships is always important in Washington. Bill Clinton frequented a Methodist church, Jimmy Carter taught Baptist Sunday school and Barack Obama visited an Episcopal church near the White House. Today Barack Obama was seen in a church reciting glorious songs with his family, whereas Trump has not been seen anywhere in any church. According to Concord Monitor, Trump said in his weekly radio address, “Easter Sunday is a holy day of reverence and worship” and “a sacred time that fills the spirit of our nation with the faith of our people” yet failed to go to church today ‘Easter’.

It was reported also that some Washington churches might be uncomfortable for him. “Churches in D.C. tend, not all, but tend to be a little more liberal. It’s a hard sell,” the senior pastor at New York Avenue Presbyterian Church Rev. Roger Gench said. “The policies of Trump are counter to the views of most of the people in the church.” Rice University presidential historian Douglas Brinkley said “Even if Trump doesn’t go each week, heading to church from time to time might be a good idea politically, ‘No president has ever done damage to his career by showing up to a church service on Sunday,” It shows people that perhaps God is on your side, that you understand the power of prayer.” he said.

NEW YORK (AP) — AlphaBay, the now-shuttered online marketplace that authorities say traded in illegal drugs, firearms and counterfeit goods, wasn’t all that different from any other e-commerce site, court documents show. Not only did it work hard to match buyers and sellers and to stamp out fraud, it offered dispute-resolution services when things went awry and kept a public-relations manager to promote the site to new users. Of course, AlphaBay was no eBay. It went to great lengths to hide the identities of its vendors and customers, and it promoted money-laundering services to mask the flow of bitcoin and other digital currencies from prying eyes. Such “darknet” sites operate in an anonymity-friendly internet netherworld that’s inaccessible to ordinary browsers. If you’ve ever found yourself wondering just how they really work, a U.S. criminal case unveiled Thursday offers an eye-opening look. ___ WHAT IS ALPHABAY?

King Salman has said it is to take effect from June 2018; the delay seems intended to get conservatives accustomed to a highly visible social change and deal with the practicalities of training female driving instructors and traffic police. Why has this change happened now, after so long? It is partly the result of top-down factors, as a new crown prince ushers in a new style of politics. It also reflects changes coming from deep within a society that may be highly religious, but is also very young and faces a new economic future.
