U.S. travelers are expected to visit U.S. destinations more in 2023 than they did before the COVID-19 pandemic, according to data from the World Travel and Tourism Council. Thanks in part to rising inflation rates, which make international travel far more difficult to budget for a family, along with the general public's desire to freely move about now that COVID-19 restrictions are fully lifted. Combining that with the plethora of places to choose from when it comes to making your way across America, domestic travel rates went up 30.1% in 2022, and it seems to be on trend to continue its ascent.

With so much to do, however, who could blame someone for wanting to get in the car and leave their cares behind during an epic road trip? For booking that last-minute flight on a whim because the mood seems to strike. The U.S. is home to 424 National Parks, 620 amusement parks, over 35,000 museums, and don't even get us started on how many restaurants there are to try!

Severe storms expected in Nebraska Friday night - Scottsbluff Star Herald

(Below the Belt) Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Mary Alice Hatch and Sen Orrin Hatch meet to discuss funding for endometriosis research, in a scene from the documentary "Below the Belt," scheduled to air Wednesday, June 21, 2023, on KUED, PBS Utah.

| June 21, 2023, 12:00 p.m.

The documentary Below the Belt: The Last Health Taboo is full of shocking facts about endometriosis and surprising real-life stories from women who suffer from it. And there is a bit of surprise for Utahns on the political side of the story.

Not only did the late Sen. Orrin Hatch work with Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, but he praised her. And hugged her.

Hatch, who retired from the Senate in 2019 and died in April 2022, championed allocating more funds to endometriosis research. As does Warren. And Hillary Rodham Clinton. And Mitt Romney, who succeeded Hatch in the Senate.

All four current and former senators are listed as executive producers of Below the Belt, which airs Wednesday at 9 p.m. on PBS/Channel 7. Thats a fairly common way to promote a documentary, and they werent actually involved in the production.

Romney and Warren co-hosted a screening of the film in Washington, D.C., in March, and Romney jokingly acknowledged there were strange bedfellows involved: It is strange to see Elizabeth Warren and Mitt Romney promoting the same thing, he said, according to The Hill.

Hatchs involvement came about because his granddaughter, Emily Hatch Manwaring, is among the one in 10 women who suffers from endometriosis. She and her mother, Mary Alice Hatch, became advocates for more government funding for research.

(According to the Mayo Clinic, endometriosis is an often painful disorder in which tissue similar to the tissue that normally lines the inside of your uterus grows outside your uterus. It can cause pain sometimes severe, and fertility problems also may develop.)

Below the Belt is filled with alarming facts: Most doctors cant diagnose endometriosis, and dont know how to treat it. It takes a decade for most women to be diagnosed. Most common treatments including hysterectomies dont work. Most health insurance wont pay for the most effective treatment.

(Rick Bowmer | AP file photo) Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, gestures to the Utah House during a 2018 visit at the Utah State Capitol.

There are multiple heart-wrenching stories told by suffering women, including Hatchs granddaughter. Hatch Manwaring began experiencing severe effects of endometriosis when she was just 13. There are home movies of her growing up, dancing, water skiing, learning to drive and then she is grimacing in pain because it feels like a knife is going through my stomach.

In an interview on PBS Newshour, Below the Belt director Shannon Cohn said endometriosis advocates began working with Orrin Hatch in 2017 and that he, his granddaughter and his daughter-in-law began really pushing endometriosis forward in a meaningful way. And that after Orrin Hatchs retirement, Sen. Mitt Romney stepped in his shoes and really pushed it forward alongside Sen. Warren.

At the March screening at the Hart Senate Office Building, Warren said, We are all here tonight, in large part, in this room, because of Orrin Hatch.

Cohen said it was wonderful to see lawmakers from both sides of the aisle come together on an issue, especially in todays political climate and to see them say, What? Its not a political issue. This is a human issue.

(Leah Hogsten | The Salt Lake Tribune) Sen. Mitt Romney talks with reporters during a visit to the Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District's Education Center, May 5, 2023.

In a phone call with his daughter-in-law that is included in the documentary, Orrin Hatch says, Ive passed more health care bills than anybody in Congress. Id hardly ever heard of this until my granddaughter explained it to me.

We need to make people aware. I mean, you know, this is a very widespread problem for an awful lot of women. Weve got to do something about this, and Im all for it. Youve got to guide me and help me, thats all.

When Mary Alice Hatch says that they need to engage other prominent members of Congress in their efforts, Orrin Hatch replies, We have some excellent people on the Democratic side. And I think Elizabeth Warren is a good one. Shes a firebrand who irritates most Republicans, but she does not irritate me. So Id be very happy to work with her. I can get that done.

Hatch is praising and promising to work with not just any Democrat, but one of the most liberal and progressive members of the U.S. Senate.

Warren asks how long it takes to get an endometriosis diagnosis, and she is shocked when Mary Alice Hatch says the average time is 10 years. And the Utah senator tells her that he has seen his granddaughter when shes doubled up and really cant stand. The pain is so intense and so terrible.

Cameras were there when the Hatches met Warren, and there were hugs all around. Hatch Manwaring hugs Warren and her grandfather. The two senators hug each other somewhat awkwardly.

Im outnumbered, Orrin Hatch says.

This is how we get real change, Warren replies.

Right-wing allegations about Biden and Ukraine in particular usually insinuate that, while serving as vice president, the elder Biden pressured a Ukrainian prosecutor into resigning to stop an investigation into Burisma, the Ukrainian gas company on whose board Hunter sat at the time. This allegation has some factual basis: Hunter did serve on the companys board, and his father did pressure the Ukrainian government about the prosecutor in charge of corruption cases.

But it is wrong in one critical way: ThenVice President Biden pressured Ukraine to crack down harder on corruption, not go easier on it. His push came as part of a broader effort by the Obama administration and the European Union to root out corruption in the Ukrainian political and economic system. None of this was secret: Major news outlets covered Bidens trip to Ukraine in 2015 and the reason why it was happening. (By contrast, Trumps attempt to coerce Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy into smearing Hunter and his father by withholding military aid from Ukraine actually was corrupt, leading to his first impeachment in 2019.)

This reality has not deterred Trump, his allies, and other prominent Republicans from pushing the narrative that Biden was trying to protect his corrupt son. But again, their goal is not to determine whether either Biden actually did anything wrong, although they would be thrilled to find evidence to that effect. These investigations real purpose is better understood as a smear campaign against political opponents and future Democratic presidential candidates.

Republicans Are Smearing the Bidens Like They Did Hillary Clinton - The New Republic

We were born in the 1940s on the Dorsey dairy farm on Buckhorn Road in southern Carroll County. We rode our bikes on the dirt roads, and it was a thrill when we finally were able to pedal all the way to the top of the hill to Aunt Matties.

We have enjoyed our bikes and various trails with our children and grandchildren. Time has passed and we still live on a portion of the farm on Buckhorn Road. Judy has had to have two knee and two hip replacements, so riding a regular bike to enjoy the natural areas and countryside trails is no longer possible.

We now own and enjoy trail riding on our class 1 and 2 e-bikes. We pedal for a few seconds to give power and have the assist feature take over for a few seconds for us to recover. We only use the higher function when peddling up a steep hill. Judy is now considering an e-trike for additional stability.

We have always supported trail formation and maintenance in Carroll County. We need and request the Board of County Commissioners to allow e-bikes on the existing and future Carroll County trail system.

Both Hillary Clinton and President Donald Trump had classified information in their homes. Compare how President Obama and Vice President Joe Biden Department of Justice and FBI treated Hillary Clinton to how President Bidens same offices treated Trump.

Clinton was Obamas secretary of state from 2009 to 2013 and had a private server containing classified information and emails / in her home at Chappaqua, New York and 13 mobile devices to access these emails.

Clinton received a congressional subpoena from the House Select Committee on Benghazi on March 4, 2015 to turn over her emails. Three weeks later, she turned over 30,000 emails, but her IT specialist, Paul Combetta, used BleachBit software to delete 31,000 e-mails, and Clintons aide, Justin Cooper, destroyed two of her mobile devices with a hammer; the others were never found. In July 2015 the FBI started investigating Clintons handling of classified information.

Former President Bill Clinton met with Attorney General Loretta Lynch on June 27, 2016 on the tarmac of Sky Harbor Airport in Phoenix. On July 2, the FBI interviewed, Hillary Clinton and her chief of staff, Cheryl Mills, who was a witness if not subject of the investigation.

On July 5, 5 FBI Director James Comey set the precedent, when he exonerated Hillary Clinton of any criminal charges, saying the FBI found no evidence of intentional misconduct, although she and her aides were extremely careless handling highly classified information.

July 2016 also saw the Obama/Biden FBI, without any credible evidence to legally justify an investigation, lie to the FISA court to started operation Crossfire Hurricane -to spy on Trumps campaign and launch the Russia collusion hoax.

In September 2016, the New York Police Department confirmed they were investigating U.S. Rep. Anthony Weiner for sexting a teenage girl and found emails they believed relevant to the investigation of tens of thousands of Hillary Clinton on his laptop and other devices. Weiner, at the time, was married to Huma Abedin, Clintons deputy chief of staff.

No action was taken until Oct. 28 when Comey told Congress the FBI would investigate these emails. On Nov. 6, Comey told Congress they didnt change his conclusion.

Although the Department of Justice had been communicating with Trump about his classified documents, on Aug. 8, 2022, armed FBI agents, with guns drawn, raided Trumps home at Mar-a-Lago and denied his lawyers access to their search while they seize and photographed documents, then released photos to the media. On June 8 this year, the Department of Justice indicted Trump for mishandling classified documents for violating the Espionage Act, obstruction and false statements.

The Constitution guarantees equal justice under the law. Did Trump and Clinton receive equal justice?
