The Problem: Tennis participant Novak Djokovic’s lack of ability to play within the US Open as a result of he’s not vaccinated.

It appears unusual to me that the US authorities is barring unvaccinated noncitizens, like tennis star, Novak Djokovic, from coming into the nation (“No joke: Unvaxxed Djokovic received’t play in Flushing,” Aug. 26).

How does the federal government justify the arrival of all these unvaccinated migrants coming throughout the southern border? President Biden put out the welcome mat for them. It’s not truthful.

Djokovic ought to enter the US on the southern border, thus avoiding any COVID-vaccination requirement. Then he might share a free bus trip to New York Metropolis with fellow “migrants.”

Sadly, upon arriving at Arthur Ashe Stadium, Djocovic could be denied entry as a match participant — but any ticket holder will probably be admitted with out having to point out proof of COVID vaccination (in line with the Open’s official web site).

Possibly Mayor Adams can embrace some tickets to the Open within the care packages for migrants.

Unvaxxed Novak Djokovic received’t be taking part in within the US Open in Flushing.

There aren’t any phrases to explain this stupidity. The US is permitting unlawful immigrants to enter our nation, but we’re not permitting this extraordinarily gifted athlete to enter? What is going on to us?

Marc Berman’s story relating to Djokovic being barred from the US Open tennis championship says: “Unvaccinated non-Americans are banned from coming to the US.”

This flies within the face of the pictures of hundreds of unvetted “non-Americans” flocking by our southern border destined for components unknown. Doesn’t anyone have an issue with this?

What a joke. The Facilities for Illness Management and Prevention won’t enable Djokovic into the US to compete on the US Open as a result of he’s not vaccinated.

But this 12 months we now have allowed hundreds of thousands of unlawful immigrants to bum rush our southern border to be dispersed all through our total nation, and the CDC hasn’t a clue or a care if any of them have been vaccinated.

Nevertheless, officers need us to know they’re defending us from Novak Djokovic.

The Problem: Victor Davis Hanson’s column on how US leaders and specialists have brought about polarization.

There is no such thing as a one higher capable of body the schism that has developed in recent times in America between our haves and have-nots than Victor Davis Hanson (“Elites’ divide & conquer failure,” Aug. 27).

Hanson is appropriate in saying that what has introduced down America is just not the center class however the elite authorities leaders, the generals and advisers, the teachers and the coverage wonks.

The blue states dictated whereas the purple states had been helpless to impede the promised onslaught of “excellence, advantage and success,” which by no means really adopted.

The last word take a look at for America is whether or not we nonetheless have the character and guts to stifle the fools who’re main us on a street to wreck.

Wealthy Klitzberg

Princeton

Victor Davis Hanson has written what is probably essentially the most informative and in addition extremely disturbing image of America’s gigantic divide.

It’s the elites who’re trashing the nation into irreconcilable segments, spurred on by selling oppression, hatred, segregation and anti-meritocracy, amongst different issues. God assist us!
