Good morning from Washington, where President Biden seems content to oversee a surge in lawlessness in America. Victor Davis Hanson tracks criminal behavior to its source. California’s governor sure likes to tell leaders of other states what to do, our Katrina Trinko writes. Plus: Larry Elder defends “Dilbert” creator’s remarks about black Americans, and Paul Zepeda decries two recent examples of bad art in public places.  

On this date in 1959,  Lorraine Hansberry's “A Raisin in the Sun,” the first Broadway play written by a black woman, opens a run of 530 performances.  Remember to “spring forward” one hour Sunday as Daylight Saving Time begins. Have a great weekend.
