Good morning from Washington, where some policymakers seem just fine with making America less prosperous and free. This is a dangerous trend, Victor Davis Hanson writes. What do pro-choice protesters say about the prospect of the Supreme Court’s ending abortion on demand? Mary Margaret Olohan has a video report. Plus: an Aussie’s account of a COVID-19 quarantine camp; a mom takes on a powerful teachers union in court; and David Harsanyi calls out Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s bid to undercut the rule of law. On this date in 1942, two women risk their own lives by organizing fellow Christians in Poland to help Jews who are being isolated, imprisoned, and killed by the Nazis. Enjoy the weekend.
