Good morning from  Washington, where a key House Republican tells The Daily Signal that a whistleblower’s bribery allegation against President Biden could lead to impeachment. Fred Lucas reports. Biden’s decision to send troops to the border is a sham, a retired Border Patrol agent tells our Virginia Allen. A media frenzy over “book banning” by a county library system isn’t based on fact, Tony Kinnett writes. Plus: the Left targets the Supreme Court; a compromised media ignores Biden’s ‘Big Lie’; Tucker Carlson before the ax fell; and why we need to get along better.  On this date in 2004, an estimated audience of 51.1 million tunes in for the final episode of NBC’s long-running comedy series “Friends.” Enjoy the weekend.
