Iran is back on the list of countries whose people can't come to the US

NY Times:

In Iran, Shock and Bewilderment Over Trump Visa Crackdown


The new administration’s freeze on visas for a targeted group of countries could provide an early test of its relationship with Tehran.
The leadership of Iran is at war with the US and has been since 1979.  In fact, Jimmy Carter as President also banned Iranian from coming to the US.  Their attitude has not much changed much since then other than taking Obama to the cleaners with a terrible nuke deal.

They are still using their proxies to attack the US and its allies and they are harassing the freedom of navigation in the Persian Gulf.  They are still sending people into the streets to shout "Death to America."  It is a country that is still under the control of genocidal Islamic religious bigots.  They are still working to develop ICBM's to put their nukes on when the terrible Obama agreement runs its course.

The Iranians who escaped from this Islamist hell hole and came to the US have been good citizens and have embraced the American culture much more so than more recent Muslims refugees.  But, it is not safe for these people to go back to Iran and visit relatives because this regime of despots is likely to take them hostage.

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.
