Plus: Former Justice Department Lawyer Testifies to Voting Section’s History of Abusing Its Authority
July 7 2021
Good morning from Washington, where lawmakers who collect campaign cash from teachers unions look on as those unions plant critical race theory in public schools. Lindsey Burke has seen enough. Justice Department lawyers often abuse their power in election cases, Hans von Spakovsky writes. On the podcast, Arizona’s attorney general holds out hope for election reform across the nation. Plus: President Biden’s harmful border security policy; the Supreme Court’s bad call on evictions; and what “60 Minutes+” won’t tell you about the transgender agenda. Forty-five years ago today, women enroll for the first time at the U.S. Military Academy; four years later, 62 of these cadets graduate and are commissioned as second lieutenants.
The lawyer says she was “shocked” at “how political” the conduct of the government lawyers was and testified that their actions were the “furthest thing from nonpartisan.”
“[W]e need to recognize that the Constitution allows states to enact election integrity measures,” Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich says. “The framers of our Constitution understood that.”
Border residents are angry over the blatant disregard the administration has demonstrated—not only for citizens, but the illegal immigrants for whom it purports to have compassion.
The Supreme Court’s decision to leave in place the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s unlawful, unconstitutional eviction moratorium poses a threat to the rule of law and federalism.
“60 Minutes+” ignores the perspectives of those who caution against the “transing” of kids because of long-term harm to their mental and physical health.
