October 28 2022
 
Happy Friday from Washington, where Democrats’ “COVID-19 relief” pays for cash giveaways in Los Angeles, Chicago, and other major cities. Fred Lucas reports. A Vermont family takes their school district to court, alleging retaliation for opposing a transgender policy that endangers girls. Mary Margaret Olohan has the story. On the podcast, Heritage Foundation economist EJ Antoni sees worrisome signs in that new report of an improving economy. Plus: Steve Scalise decries political violence; the praying coach returns to the gridiron; and why we honor first responders. Sixty years ago today, blinking under pressure from President John F. Kennedy,  Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev orders the withdrawal of Soviet missiles from Cuba.
