March 16 2021
Good morning from Washington, where we’re learning more about the bad things in Democrats’ legislation to nationalize elections. Hans von Spakovsky counts off eight.

On the podcast, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo says President Trump made history in world affairs.

On this date in 1802, Congress creates the United States Military Academy as the new nation’s first military school—located at West Point, N.Y.—to educate and train young men in military science.

The former secretary of state discusses the impact of the Abraham Accords, moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel, and the increasing threat of the Chinese Communist Party.
The basic premise of statutory PAYGO is straightforward. In the words of President Obama, who signed the policy into law, it tells Congress: “You can’t spend a dollar unless you cut a dollar elsewhere.”
At a Black Lives Matter protest in Washington, there were chants of “Israel, we know you murder children, too,” and a student read a poem calling Israel “puppet master of continents.”
