Good morning from Washington, where President Biden threatens states that block “gender affirming” surgery and related medical care for children. Jay Richards exposes the bad science. Is the president giving us straight talk about inflation? Not hardly, Peter St. Onge writes. On the podcast, Media Research Center chief Brent Bozell talks about the corrupt media, Big Tech, and his unexpected new book. Plus: school choice as an antidote for the mental health crisis among America’s kids; Judge Jackon’s record on child porn; and the compromising of the president. On this date in 1973, the “twin towers” of New York’s World Trade Center officially open, replacing the Empire State Building as the world’s tallest structure.
