Movie Review: Disney serves up another ‘Frozen’ treat
If anything was a sure bet at the box office at the time, it was “Frozen II.” The original, animated 2013 movie was that sort of serendipity any studio wishes for ... even Disney, which doesn’t always have its expectations met. The company wanted to make sure its best foot was put forward on a “Frozen” sequel, which is why it took six years. Freeform shows “Frozen II” Saturday, June 22, right after — appropriately enough — the first “Frozen.” ...

Oregon political leaders continued to react Friday, June 14, after the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously upheld access to mifepristone, a widely available abortion drug, earlier in the week. The decision written by Justice Brett Kavanaugh carefully sidestepped the issue of future court challenges to the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of mifepristone. The decision, released Thursday, only rules that the plaintiffs in this case — anti-abortion doctors — don’t have standing to sue because they do not prescribe the drug themselves. ...
