Biden administration trying to hide their border fiasco

 Ed Morrissey:

Not only hasn’t Kamala Harris made it to the border, but the White House wants to make sure no one else in Washington does either. A delegation of House Republicans, including Appropriations Committee member Mike Garcia, ventured down to the DEA intelligence facility near El Paso to get a closer look at the border crisis. Instead, as Fox’s Sara Carter reported last night, they got a closer look at the stonewall Joe Biden’s erecting around his border policy:

“All I can say is, I don’t know what they have to hide,” Rep. Brian Babin, R-Texas told Carter. “For some reason, we were not allowed in. I can only imagine what is it that they want to hide and not show the very representatives of the American people that have oversight over this facility that fund it and that authorize it. What don’t they want us to see?”

“This is not something we surprised them with,” Rep. Mike Garcia, R-Calif., argued. “We’ve been trying to get in there for a couple of weeks and it’s coming from the top. It’s Coming from the White House. They don’t want us to see what it is. You can make a conjecture about why they won’t let us in there. In my opinion, they have data they are gathering at this intelligence center which clearly indicates that our open borders are actually a more serious than the average American understands right now.”

Rep. Vicky Hartzler R-MO said the El Paso center serves as the “intelligence operation for this region.

” I would have liked to have the opportunity to visit with the FBI and the agents there to learn more about what the drug cartels are doing and what strategy we’re employing to stop them,” she said, “but we were denied that opportunity.”

This is the kind of strategy that House Republicans should have employed from the beginning of the border crisis, but this also shows its limits. Normally this kind of House delegation would draw at least some media coverage, especially in relation to a pressing public crisis like the migrant wave this year. However, Fox News appears to be the only news outlet covering the aborted visit by the House delegation.

...

They clearly do not think that what is happening on the border will be of any political benefit to the Democrats or the Biden administration.  They have a scandal to hide and too many in the media are part of the coverup.  That is one of the reasons the Vice President is not visiting the border.  It would expose what a clusterf*** Biden has created. 

Data also suggest that Biden has in effect abolished the ability for ICE to function.  It is yet another reason why he should be impeached.

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.
