UK Prime Minister Walks Down Streets of Kyiv with Volodymyr Zelensky
|
Boris Johnson showed courage and friendship as he strolled the streets with the man Russia is trying to kill ( Fox News). From the Wall Street Journal: Call it a photo-op if you like, but this one matters. Ukraine has won the battle of Kiev, which Mr. Johnson called “the greatest feat of arms of the 21st century.” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen also visited Kiev and offered a fast-track to European Union membership. This solidarity sends an important political signal of European support, though it’s not as crucial as more and heavier weapons as a new campaign in eastern Ukraine unfolds. Britain is sending 120 armored vehicles and new antiship missiles to Ukraine. The latter could help deter a Russian attempt at a marine landing against Odessa on the Black Sea. The Biden Administration says it’s also sending more weapons, but our sources say the flow is still too slow. President Biden, please follow the Prime Minister and help Ukraine win this war, not merely survive it ( WSJ). Biden has no plans to visit ( Fox News). Meanwhile, a look at the awful violence taking place in Ukraine, with links from several news outlets ( National Review). Another Russian colonel has been killed in Ukraine ( Washington Examiner).

Democrats Continue to Struggle with Simple, Scientific Definition of a Woman
|
First, Biden’s Supreme Court nominee dodged the question with the absurd argument that she’s unqualified to answer because she’s not a biologist. Now Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra (above) plays the same game, acting as if the basic definition doesn’t exist in the constant fear of the far, far left.

Allen West Heckled by BLM, Compares Them to Racists of Past
|
From the story: “They are radical,” West told Fox News. “I remember the days when black students had to be escorted on to college campuses, but now, because of radical militant black students, I have to be escorted out. There’s something that has to change. A college and university environment is supposed to be free and open sharing of thoughts, perspectives, and ideas, but the progressive socialist Left, by way of fear, intimidation, coercion, and ultimately violence — this is how they suppress any other thoughts, free speech,” West continued. “We cannot have that happen here in the United States of America.”

Shanghai Residents Plead for Food from Locked Down Homes
|
From the story: Desperate Shanghai residents who are under strict lockdown over a COVID-19 outbreak are protesting food shortages, chanting “we want supplies” from their apartments, video shows ( NY Post). From Dr. Scott Gottlieb: Shanghai Government has disclosed 130,000 covid infections, and said there’s been one severe case and no deaths It’s an implausible set of figures contradicted by reporting in @WSJ and other outlets, where outbreaks in nursing homes, and tragic fatalities, have been documented ( Twitter).

Judge Strikes Down California Law Requiring “Diversity” On Company Boards of Directors
|
From the story: In a statement after the ruling, Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, decried the law as part of “one of the most blatant and significant attacks in the modern era on constitutional prohibitions against discrimination.” California has led the country in pushing companies to diversify their top ranks, starting with a 2018 law that required corporate boards have at least one woman. Companies that do not comply face fines ( NY Times). From Carol Platt Liebau: The California law reinforced the bigoted premise that people’s immutable characteristics were what mattered most about them. This pernicious assumption undercuts the whole idea of merit. Ironically, these sorts of laws hurt high achieving members of so-called “underrepresented communities” by raising unfair doubts about whether they’ve been selected for their abilities or because they check a box ( Townhall Review).

McCarthy: GOP Has No Plans to Use Impeachment Like Democrats Did
|
From the story: “ One thing we learned that the Democrats did is they used impeachment for political reasons,” McCarthy said in an interview on “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo. “We believe in the rule of law.” Mr. McCarthy said that Republicans would not be afraid to hold the White House accountable when in power, but ruled out weaponizing impeachment to settle political scores.

Masters Winner: “The Reason Why I Play Golf is I’m Trying to Glorify God”
|
From Masters Champion Scottie Scheffler: “… for me, my identity isn’t a golf score. Like Meredith told me this morning, ‘If you win this golf tournament today, if you lose this golf tournament by 10 shots, if you never win another golf tournament again,’ she goes, ‘I’m still going to love you, you’re still going to be the same person, Jesus loves you and nothing changes.’ All I’m trying to do is glorify God and that’s why I’m here and that’s why I’m in [this] position.”

Charlie Kirk considers where morals come from as California and other states expand abortion ‘rights,’ even potentially to after birth
|
|
|

Charlie Kirk: Western values will tell you that those that cannot protect themselves are still deserving of protection. Why? Because we are image bearers all made in the image of God. We are not cells. We’re not a mistake. If humanity is designed, then it would be rational to protect the...

Hugh Hewitt has a simple math (and morality) lesson: Borrow money, pay it back
|

|
Hugh Hewitt: President Biden has announced he’s keeping the student loan moratorium. And I think this is profoundly bad for the country. And it’s profoundly unjust to everyone who’s 30 and just finished paying off their student loans, to realize that with a wave of his hand, Joe Biden is...

Dinesh D'Souza reveals changes to US immigration policy that open the floodgates even wider
