Texas Rangers save baby girl thrown into Rio Grande by coyotes

 Washington Examiner:

A special operations unit of the Texas Rangers saved a 6-month-old infant after she was tossed out of a raft by "smugglers" into the Rio Grande River, a hotbed for illegal crossings into the United States, according to authorities.

The child's mother "had been assaulted by" the traffickers in Mexico, and she sustained a broken leg, the Texas Department of Public Safety wrote in a Facebook post on Tuesday, adding that the baby was recovered by a "specialized group" within the Rangers on March 16.

The post included a photograph of a member of the South Texas Special Operations Group of the Texas Rangers holding the child.

9-YEAR-OLD MIGRANT MEXICAN BOY DIES AFTER ATTEMPTING TO CROSS BORDER RIVER

The Rangers said the tactical team's "primary responsibility is to carry out specific missions, usually along the Texas-Mexico border region" and "conduct interdiction, and disruption of criminal activity usually associated with drug cartels."

Last week, a 9-year-old Mexican boy died after attempting to get across the Rio Grande into the U.S. Customs and Border Protection disclosed Thursday that Border Patrol agents on boat patrol in Eagle Pass, Texas, discovered the boy, along with a Guatemalan woman and her 3-year-old child, stranded on a tiny island on the Mexican side of the river last Saturday.

The woman and the 3-year-old responded to recitation.  The boy did not.  This is one of the results of Biden's bad policy and the actions of the coyotes who have made money off of his immigration screw-up.

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
