Reining in Biden's climate agenda

 Phillip Wegman:

Conservatives File Suit to 'Derail Biden Climate Railroad'
...

The Clean Air Act requires that, when setting air quality standards, EPA must seek the advice of a panel of experts known as the Clean Air Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC). Regan dismissed all seven members of that panel and 47 members of the related Science Advisory Board (SAB) — actions that, Young alleges, left them “unfairly balanced” because “they lack a single member affiliated with regulated industries.”

Young’s fellow conservatives have rallied to his lawsuit, with Garrett Bess, vice president of Heritage Action for America, condemning the firings as part of an effort “to rubber-stamp the Left's extreme job-killing agenda.” Myron Ebell, director of the Center for Energy and Environment at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, added that the move was meant to ensure the EPA gets “only the advice that it wants to hear.”
...

Milloy, who authored the book “Scare Pollution: Why and How to Fix the EPA,” added that if Young and “other honest scientists” are not restored to their positions on the advisory boards, the Biden administration “will likely issue air quality regulations that are literally based on scientific fraud and that have been rubber-stamped by EPA’s illegally selected board of crony science advisers.” If conservatives succeed in court, he predicted, the EPA will have “to start over and pick a truly independent and balanced review panel.”
...

It looks like Biden is trying the destroy the economy of the whole country chasing the phantom of "climate change."   He is already getting a head start with his energy policies which are hurting all who drives cars and trucks.

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

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
