Global economic policymakers are expecting China to soon provide major support to a flagging world economy now that it’s abandoned its zero-COVID policy.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) was honored last week at the historic Union League of Philadelphia, receiving the organization's gold medal of honor, an award first given to President Abraham Lincoln in 1863. The distinction is "conferred on men who were regarded as deserving well of their country." Other previous recipients include former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich (R-GA), former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA), and Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) appears to see the writing on the wall in a potential GOP presidential primary. So why can’t he and other lower-tier candidates just get out of the way now?
Democrats have predictably turned the death of Tyre Nichols in Memphis, Tennessee, into a referendum on Republicans and on the country in the form of systemic racism. After all, better to talk about that than about the fact that this is yet another failure of local and national Democratic politicians.
The World Health Organization’s inconsistent messaging about the COVID pandemic continued on Monday as WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said the virus is still considered a global health emergency as the pandemic enters its fourth year.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), who just barely survived a primary election challenge last year in her deep-blue Minneapolis district, is best known nationally for her repeated antisemitic comments. Her House colleagues brought a resolution to the floor specifically addressing her antisemitism. Democratic leaders knew she was in the wrong, and they proved as much when, in order to spare themselves even worse embarrassment, they brought their own watered-down resolution that avoided getting too close to the mark with respect to Omar's antisemitism.
FROM HARDCORES TO MOVEONS: TRUMP, SOUTH CAROLINA, AND REPUBLICAN OPINION. Columbia, South Carolina — Former President Donald Trump did something unusual here in South Carolina Saturday night. He held a small event, or at least a relatively small event. Trump is known for holding massive rallies, with 8,000, 10,000, 15,000, or even more attending. His appearance in the main lobby of the state Capitol in Columbia was tiny by comparison, with perhaps 500 people in the room, and maybe a little less than that.
