Good morning from Washington, where pols and lobbyists on the left encourage the once-venerated Walt Disney Co. to forsake America’s family values for fashionable wokeness. Our Doug Blair notes Disney’s double standard in foreign dealings. What’s wrong with a proposal to “fix” U.S. immigration courts? Joseph Edlow has specifics. On the podcast, Rep. Debbie Lesko, R-Ariz., outlines how to revive America’s energy independence. Plus: John Stossel takes aim at the Hunter Biden cover-up, and “Problematic Women” examines a proposed Women’s Bill of Rights. On this date in 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower coins a famous Cold War phrase by saying the fall of Vietnam—then known as Indochina—could create a “domino” effect in Southeast Asia.
