Foreign desk: Biden Risks \u2018Special Relationship\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

President Biden\u2019s \u201cbroadside against Britain\u201d is \u201cperplexing,\u201d complains Douglas Murray at UnHerd<\/a>. Just before heading to England for the G7 summit, Team Biden told \u201cYael Lempert \u2014 its most senior diplomat in the UK \u2014 to accuse Boris Johnson of imperiling the Irish peace process over Brexit.\u201d It reflects a \u201cnon-pragmatic side to the Biden administration,\u201d one that\u2019s \u201cdeeply ideological\u201d and would \u201crisk a diplomatic fallout\u201d to satisfy the Democrats\u2019 \u201cdogmatically pro-Irish reunification agenda.\u201d A year ago, Chuck Schumer even issued well wishes to Sinn Fein, \u201ca political party that app<\/a>roves of terrorism.\u201d Dems would \u201csacrifice Brexit for a united Ireland,\u201d and Biden\u2019s move suggests his administration \u201cviews British democracy as a threat to its own ideological agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n

Anti-violence leader: The High Price of \u2018Defund\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The anti-violence Woodson Center family just lost one of its own, mourns the organization\u2019s founder, Robert L. Woodson Sr., at The Wall Street Journal<\/a>. Makhi Buckly, a 19-year-old black student athlete and grandson of \u201cCarl Hardrick, one of our most faithful leaders in youth violence prevention,\u201d was fatally shot on Memorial Day. Carl\u2019s words \u201cbroke my heart: \u2018It\u2019s my job to keep kids safe, but I can\u2019t even protect my own grandson.\u2019\u200a\u201d Hundreds of minority families have lost children to \u201csenseless violence over the past year,\u201d yet the press \u201cignores any victim who isn\u2019t killed\u201d by police. Meanwhile, the \u201cDefund the police\u201d movement has \u201cactually gotten innocent black people killed.\u201d Crime has \u201cskyrocketed,\u201d and \u201cour families\u201d have \u201cpaid the price.\u201d \u201cDefund\u201d is \u201ca death sentence for innocent black children.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fiscal watchdog: Port Authority\u2019s $1B Workers<\/strong><\/p>\n

Payroll costs for the Port Authority \u201ccrossed the billion-dollar threshold\u201d in 2020, report the Empire Center\u2019s fiscal experts<\/a>, with its 9,000 active employees earning an average of $112,109 each; more than half (55 percent) made six figures, including 607 paid more than $200,000 and 60 more than $300,000. The $1.002 billion 2020 tab marked a jump of nearly $160 million over 2018 and $5 million over 2019. The agency\u2019s police department was its highest-earning group, with 69 employees collecting $100,000 in overtime alone \u2014 including 20 percent of lieutenants and 10 percent of sergeants. The PA\u2019s top breadwinner: Det. Richard Paugh, who scored $415,126 last year, including $45,881 in overtime and $91,630 in retroactive pay.<\/p>\n

Conservative: Jeffrey Toobin\u2019s Infuriating Return<\/strong><\/p>\n

Woke social<\/a>-justice warriors who enforce cancel culture typically \u201cpermit no room for error, no room for dissent, no room for disagreement or pushback,\u201d so the decision by CNN to bring back Jeffrey Toobin after he infamously exposed himself on a Zoom call is \u201cmadness,\u201d declares National Review\u2019s Jim Geraghty<\/a>. Toobin\u2019s departure \u201cshould have opened up opportunities for some other lawyer who can explain legal concepts in layman\u2019s terms.\u201d And since no one was clamoring for his return, the only explanation is that \u201cJeff Zucker, the president of CNN, wants him back.\u201d It\u2019s a shameless and \u201calmost gleeful celebration of unaccountability, an in-your-face, spiking-the-football mentality that once you\u2019ve reached a certain level of success in the world of television news<\/a> . . . no one can ever get rid of you, no matter what you do.\u201d<\/p>\n

Economist: Infrastructure Deal Isn\u2019t Worth Cost<\/strong><\/p>\n

President Biden and a Senate group are working on a bipartisan compromise to fund traditional infrastructure spending, but \u201cthe emerging deal is a bad investment,\u201d warns Benjamin Powell at The Hill<\/a>. \u201cRepublican and Democratic politicians agree that a massive increase in infrastructure funding is a good investment,\u201d and they would be right \u201cif infrastructure spending was financed by cuts in government consumption and transfer payments.\u201d But neither party is proposing that. Instead, \u201cthis infrastructure bill would decrease economic freedom through both increased government spending and higher tax rates,\u201d which will strangle private investment and economic growth. Despite the consensus, \u201cthe American economy would be better off if the whole deal was scrapped and more avenues for greater private investment in infrastructure were created.\u201d<\/p>\n
