The past week saw another major celebration commemorating the 250th anniversary of the United States, as well as a vow from President Donald Trump to sign legislation banning Sharia law if it reaches his desk.

Other developments included Trump renaming a major North American body of water and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) reaching a settlement with Apple over religious discrimination.
