Democrats have lost all credibility with their impeachment efforts

Washington Post:

Trump’s GOP support hardens despite damning impeachment testimony

As the inquiry hurtles toward impeachment and a Senate trial, House Democrats say the evidence that President Trump abused his office and orchestrated a bribery scheme is unambiguous. But the hearings appear to have changed the minds of few, if any, Republican lawmakers.
House Democrats are living in a fantasy world if they really believe that nonsense. That fits Biden's conduct more than Trump's.  They also lost credibility when they push false allegations that Trump won because he "colluded" with Russians. They pushed a false narrative from the time he was elected.  Their initial allegations about Ukraine were also false and they kept falling back on other false allegations and tried to criminalize conduct that was not remotely criminal.  Their allegations of bribery are laughable and their own witnesses rejected them.

The problem for the media is that they only heard what they wanted to hear and ignored the effective cross-examination by the Republicans in Congress.  They they tried to criminalize the GOP representatives who challenged their false narratives.

The Democrats also made a mistake by turning the case over to a known liar like Adam Schiff who excluded relevant information and witnesses. Despite the handicaps, he imposed on the Republicans the GOP members of the committee did a more effective job than the Democrats.

Simply put the Democrats did not present a persuasive case despite their attempt to exclude relevant evidence and witnesses.  If this case makes its way to a Senate trial the Democrats will be further exposed and embarrassed.  The Democrats damned themselves with this travesty.

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.
