Here are some things from today's news, opinion, and weirdness (and my own commentary, too):
From the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, next February, the Boy Scouts will drop the "Boy" from their name, because girls are now included. (Isn't there a separate organization for girls called the "Girl Scouts", and why are they still allowed to use the word "girl" in their name?)
From The New York Times, President Trump replaces Ty Cobb with a lawyer used by his impeached predecessor. (via The Blaze)
From LifeNews, Alfie Evans was a victim of "new eugenics".
From Breitbart Jerusalem, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) praises Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu's revelations about Iran's nuclear program.
From CNS News, the Trump administration is dismantling President Obama's "anti-religious expression war machine".
From Radio Poland, Poland celebrates their Flag Day. (via Voice Of Europe)
From Sputnik International, the migrant deal between the E.U. and Turkey resulted in overcrowded refugee centers in Greece.
From the Express, British MEP Nigel Farage and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker share a high five.
From the NL Times, the Dutch municipality of Weert holds a meeting over criminal asylum seekers.
From Dutch News, fewer Dutch couples are getting married.
From Russia Today, Brexiteer Jacob Rees-Mogg is happy about Trump's upcoming visit to the U.K.
From Hürriyet Daily News, the number of migrants moving from Turkey to Greece has gone up 17 percent in the last 4 to 5 weeks.
From Politico, the European Commission proposes a €1.279 trillion budget for seven years.
From RTÉ, a greater share of that budget could come from Ireland.
From The Times Of Israel, according to the ADL, most Islamist terror attacks in the U.S. since 2002 were home-grown.
From Coherent News, four people in Aceh, Indonesia are arrested for same-sex conduct.
From Arutz Sheva, the Netherlands permits the broadcast of an anti-Islam campaign video.
From Christian Today, archaeologists find an early Christian church in territory recently controlled by ISIS.
From Gatestone Institute, Palestinians are "the real Gaza blockade".
From National Review, more justified criticism of Karl Marx.
From FrontpageMag, Venezuelan socialists live very well, in the United States. (I find it interesting that some of the most egregious examples of the "gap between rich and poor" that the American left likes to complain about are found in countries with far-left regimes.)
From Townhall, French President Macron speaks very good English, but can still make a mistake. (Il parle anglais plus bien que je parle français.)
From the New York Post, Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) holds a big lead over challenger Cynthia Nixon. (As far as I know, she is not related to a certain president. If anyone knows otherwise, please correct me in a comment.)
From Global News, police in Toronto aren't sure about a car hanging from a bridge.
From the Detroit Free Press, in Detroit, there's a tour of weird homes.
And from SF Gate, the Weird Street Faire takes you back to the 1970's. (Having lived through that decade once already, I think I'll pass.)
UPDATE: I saw this at HotAir and had to pass it along. From RedState, North Korea has moved three detained Americans from suspected labor camps to a hotel in Pyongyang, apparently (or at least hopefully) to prepare them to be released.
