Students join the protests at Loudon County Schools

 Red States:

We’ve heard a lot about what’s going on in Loudoun County Public School (LCPS) system from the school board, from the parents, even from politicians. Part of what parents were concerned about was the cover-up of two sexual assaults within the school system.

We saw Barack Obama downplay parental concerns in Virginia as “fake outrage” when he came out to campaign for Terry McAuliffe in the governor’s race in the state. That downplaying blew up on Obama yesterday after a judge found the boy alleged to have committed two sexual assaults in May and in October in the LCPS guilty in the first incident that occurred in May. The second case has not yet been decided. Parents let Obama have it.

Today we’re hearing from the students themselves — they’re the people who are most affected by all these policies and actions and they had a few things they wanted to let out today. They staged a walkout today across multiple schools in the school system, chanting against the LCPS cover-up that put them at risk.
...

They chanted “Loudoun County protects rapists!” and they asked why were rapists allowed in the schools, which is a great question and one they never should have had to ask because it never should have happened.
...
This is having an effect on the governor’s race, as people who always voted Democrat — after seeing what was happening here and seeing Terry McAuliffe arguing against parents’ rights to be involved in their children’s education — are now saying that they have voted for Glenn Youngkin, according to Newsmax.
...

There is more including videos of the student protests.   This seems to be backfiring on the Democrats across generations.  The school's handling of the matter was to lie and McAuliffe's response suggests he was on the side of the school officials who lied.

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
