Carlson’s Willingness to Question Dominant Narratives Made Him an Enemy of Powerful Establishment

April 26 2023

Good morning  from Washington, where the Left continues to celebrate commentator Tucker Carlson’s sudden departure from Fox News. Unfortunately, truth-tellers are in short supply, our Jarrett Stepman writes.

On this date in 1984,  President Ronald Reagan arrives in Beijing for a diplomatic meeting with Chinese leader Li Xiannian, marking the third visit to China by a U.S. president (after Ri chard Nixon  in 1972 and Gerald Ford in 1975).
