The out of touch presidency of Joe Biden

 Washington Examiner Editorial:

Inflation is at its highest level in decades. Store shelves are empty. The southern border is in chaos. Hundreds of Americans are still trapped in Afghanistan. China just tested a hypersonic missile. Employers can’t find workers to keep their businesses running. No wonder more than 60% say the country is going in the wrong direction.

But don't worry: President Joe Biden has a “National Gender Strategy” that will turn everything around.

The document, released last Friday, is every bit as ridiculous as it sounds. Identifying “gender equity” as a “moral and strategic imperative,” the strategy promises an “intersectional approach” that acknowledges “compounding forms of discrimination” including gender, race, sexual orientation, disability, age, and socioeconomic status. This “first ever National Strategy on Gender Equity and Equality” will provide an “aspirational vision” and a “comprehensive agenda” to advance gender equity.

The agenda in the document is, at heart, the same tired laundry list of new government programs that progressives have been trying to force on the nation for decades using other specious justifications.

...

Democrat liberals are so focused on their goofy agenda that they are ignoring the deep hole their policies are putting the country in.  Instead of focusing on getting out of the hole they focus on make crap like "gender equity."  The fact is that people of both genders are in that hole.

BTW, "equity" is a new Democrat buzz word for ignoring merit based decisions.  It is a totally bad idea.  It is the equivalent of  the NFL and NBA imposing racial and gender quotas on the players instead of going for the most talented players available.  Equity is a sure way to create a losing team.

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.
