Saudi sex cop's car chase blamed for death of 4

Arab News:

Two men and two women died yesterday when the car they were traveling overturned some 20 kilometers outside the holy city.

Eyewitness reports blamed the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice for the accident.

“Commission officials were chasing the car in which the four were traveling,” said one witness.

The commission’s director in Madinah Fahd Al-Khidr called the allegations baseless and said his organization had nothing to do with the accident.

Informed sources said three people died on the spot while one passenger breathed his last at a hospital. Civil Defense officers rushed to the accident site and took the dead and injured to hospital.

Col. Mohsen Al-Radadi, spokesman for the Madinah police, said authorities were looking into the cause of the accident.

Investigations are still under way regarding the involvement of two commission members in a high speed chase that led to the deaths of a young man and woman in the Tabuk area last month.

According to eyewitnesses, the young Saudi and his fellow passenger in a Toyota Camry died on March 16 when the car hit a truck on the Tabuk-Madinah highway, causing the car to go up in flames. The couple, who were suspected by the commission members of wrongdoing, were fleeing arrest.

...

The Saudis need to disband the sex cops. They have been responsible for numerous deaths including young girls who were not allowed to flee a burning building. It is not clear why the King has not disbanded the thugs.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
