Good morning from Washington, where President Biden’s educrats pressure the nation’s public schools to go back to race-based discipline policies. Doing this would  endanger students and teachers, Jonathan Butcher writes. In California, Antifa extremists join forces with a drag queen to label parents as “hate groups” for objecting to an elementary school’s “Pride Day,” Tony Kinnett reports. The Associated Press goes full “1984” by advising reporters not to question transgenderism, Tyler O’Neil writes. On the podcast, Rob Bluey interviews a Media Research Center official about government funding of groups that smear conservatives as neo-Nazis. Plus: Dakota Wood salutes the valor of D-Day; Mike Pence throws his hat in the ring; and we check out the Children’s Pride Parade in the nation’s capital. On this date in 1944,  the largest amphibious military operation in history gets underway as the Allies invade northern France on what is now called D- Day, which will turn the tide of World War II .
