Good morning from Washington, where a veteran who runs a local bar bucks the mayor’s heavy COVID-19 restrictions. In a video report, Mary Margaret Olohan captures his emotional remarks to lawmakers and other supporters. Interesting how the left goes nuts when ordinary Canada truckers protest government mandates, Jarrett Stepman writes. On the podcast, Rep. Bob Good assesses the Biden presidency so far. Plus: Jim Carafano and Mark Morgan on border insecurity; Whoopi Goldberg’s wrongheaded view of the Holocaust; and “Problematic Women” examines Planned Parenthood’s affection for chemical abortions. On this date in 1944, American forces invade and capture the Marshall Islands, long used by the Japanese as a military base in the Pacific.
