Plus: White House Fakery Defended by ‘Fact-Checkers’
October 9 2021
Good morning from Washington, where Attorney General Merrick Garland not only is sending the FBI after parents who question school boards who adopt critical race theory, he’s doing it while a son-in-law profits from the racist doctrine. Jarrett Stepman has some thoughts. A judge sidelined the new Texas abortion law, but it can still save unborn babies, Virginia Allen reports. Plus: Biden’s fake Oval Office gets a pass; an injustice in LA; and the man behind today’s canceling of Christopher Columbus. On this date in 1967, Bolivian armed forces kill communist revolutionary Che Guevara, an Argentina-born former ally of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro, a day after capturing Guevara in a battle with his guerillas. Enjoy the weekend.

Relying on this bureaucratic weapon to boost COVID-19 vaccinations could be risky, since courts have struck down all or part of the agency’s emergency rules in four of six legal challenges.
