Plus: The Left Strikes Again at Freedom of Speech in Akron, Ohio
March 26 2022
Good morning from Washington, where a corrupt alliance of media and other elites made sure the Hunter Biden national security scandal didn’t come to most Americans’ attention for well over a year. The swamp is deeper than we thought, Jarrett Stepman writes. Plus: Hans von Spakovsky comes under fire from the League of Women Voters; Josh Hammer concludes that Ketanji Brown Jackson shouldn’t join the Supreme Court; and Emilie Kao calls out schools that encourage gender transitions. On this date in 1953, American medical researcher Dr. Jonas Salk announces on national radio his successful testing of a vaccine against the virus that causes polio. Enjoy the weekend.
Elite institutions once thought to be nonpartisan, bipartisan, or at least somewhat objective are becoming ruthlessly ideological and perfectly willing to use their power to crush dissent.
Jackson is the clear-cut favorite of many of the left’s foremost lobby groups, including the Human Rights Campaign, Planned Parenthood, and the George Soros-funded Open Society Policy Center.
Parents in Wisconsin, Florida, and California filed lawsuits after learning that schools kept them in the dark or even defied their wishes on how to treat their children’s gender dysphoria.
