Good morning  from Washington, where the Left continues to celebrate commentator Tucker Carlson’s sudden departure from Fox News. Unfortunately, truth-tellers are in short supply, our Jarrett Stepman writes. You know things are bad when student leaders at a Christian college bar a Chinese dissident from speaking about the horrors of communism. GianCarlo Canaparo has the play-by-play. Plus: House Republicans’ plan to curb runaway spending; the vice president’s skewed view of border security; Israel turns 75; and Maybelline’s trans makeover. On this date in 1984,  President Ronald Reagan arrives in Beijing for a diplomatic meeting with Chinese leader Li Xiannian, marking the third visit to China by a U.S. president (after Ri chard Nixon  in 1972 and Gerald Ford in 1975).
