Plus: WATCH: Border Patrol Blocks Media From Documenting Illegal Immigrants’ Entry Into US
May 13 2023
Good morning from Washington, where President Biden made policy changes that broke our southern border as a barrier to illegal immigrants. Now some on his team don’t want journalists to witness a new surge of border crossers, our Mary Margaret Olohan reports. The Left uses horrific homicides and mass murders to score political points, Victor Davis Hanson writes. Plus: energy policies that make no sense; what the Pulitzer Prizes tell us about today’s media; and a day to celebrate real women. Fifty years ago today, Bobby Riggs, 55, defeats fellow tennis star Margaret Court, 30, in a Mother’s Day match that Riggs dubbed a “battle of the sexes.” (Four months later, Riggs would lose a similar match to Billie Jean King, 29.) Don’t forget: Tomorrow is Mother’s Day.
It is eerie how each tragedy prompts a desperate effort to spin narratives of a racist America, where only right-wing killers and vigilantes prey on people of color and those who are transgender.
President Biden’s environmental regulations are focused on slowing development of fossil fuels and promoting electrification, resulting in higher prices for electricity, cars, and gasoline.
House conservatives head to the Senate floor to show solidarity with Sen. Tommy Tuberville, the Alabama Republican crusading against the Pentagon’s woke leadership.
