Biden's ideological hubris created border crisis

 Newsmax:

The Biden administration is letting its "ideological hubris make them ignorant," and rather than heeding the advice of experts, it is ignoring them and that's resulted in the crisis at the border, Mark Morgan, the former acting commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, told Newsmax TV Saturday. 

"We told them if you do what they have done you would create a crisis that would make 2019 pale in comparison," Morgan said on Newsmax TV's "The Count." "We told them that the Border Patrol facilities would be overwhelmed. We told them that HHS (Health and Human Services) facilities would be overwhelmed. We told them they would create an unmitigated crisis."

Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is "lying to the American people" and making absurd comments about the border, said Morgan, and his words telling immigrants "don't come" to the United States are "absurd."

"They say, under the Trump administration, you had the same kind of messaging," said Morgan. "The difference was (that) our substantive action in policy matched our message. When your substantive action of policy says your borders are open, but your words say don't come, it's absurd. It doesn't mean anything. The cartels know and right now, the numbers show that what they're saying is irrelevant."

Biden was also lying this week when he said during his press conference that the current surge in migrant numbers is seasonal, and that the same patterns happen every year, Morgan said.

"Either he's intentionally lying or he's got advisers who had given him really, really bad information," said Morgan.

He pointed out that last year, during the same time period of November 2019 to March 2020, the numbers were at about 33,000 incoming migrants a month, a drop because the Trump administration successfully addressed the 2019 crisis 

But during the same time period this year, the numbers have almost doubled, and Morgan said he's anticipating that 150,000 will have come into the country this March alone.

"So if you look at March last year to March now, that's about a 300-plus-percent increase," said Morgan. "The president wants the American people to believe it's seasonal."

There is more.

Biden has screwed up royally and is too unintelligent to admit the problem and do something about it.  Instead, he is acting like the characters in Animal House proclaiming "all is well" in the middle of a riot.

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.
