Biden doing the opposite of what works on the border

 Newsmax:

President Joe Biden caused a crisis on the southwest border "overnight" after taking office in January, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton told Newsmax TV on Monday.

The Biden administration is “actually doing exactly the opposite of what works," Paxton said on "John Bachman Now."

"He made this vague argument… that this was all shut down. The reality was, under [former President Barack] Obama we had, you'll remember this, it's factual that we had migrant caravans coming up through Mexico into our country," he said.

"President [Donald] Trump had to deal with the same thing, and what he did was he put forward proposals like building a long term solution like the wall, he encouraged border security to turn these people out and to keep them from crossing the border. And then the asylum process, he found a way to stop the loophole so that people have to wait in Mexico.

"Those things actually worked," said Paxton.

And Vice President Kamala Harris "said this wasn't created overnight. Yes, it was. It was created the very first day that Biden came into office and said, ‘hey, you come across the border. We're not reporting you.’ And guess what? They started coming right? A lot of changes made right overnight when President Biden came in office, and you know they're concerned about the message that it sends of these countries. They sent the message. The wide open, wide open arms, come on, we're gonna take you, and they sent this message during the campaign. What do you think was gonna happen?"

Paxton said later that he would "welcome the challenge," if George P. Bush, Commissioner of the Texas General Land Office and the son of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and nephew of former President George W. Bush, were to run against him in the next election.

"This is a democracy, you have to stand on [your] record, [his] as land commissioner, which I would love for him to talk about, because I don't exactly what he's done. But I welcome that opportunity to debate him, because I think issues will come out that are good, and you know, I'm ready for the challenge. "
...

Paxton is right about the border.  George P. Bush has been smart enough to support Trump which might help him in a race for AG.  While Paxton has been controversial for some, his cases against the Biden administration are what is needed.

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.
