Rittenhouse meets with President Trump

 Washington Examiner:

Former President Donald Trump described Kyle Rittenhouse as a "nice young man" who endured "prosecutorial misconduct" after having met with him.

The meeting happened at Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida, and Fox News host Sean Hannity showed a photo at the tail-end of an interview with the former president that aired Tuesday evening. Rittenhouse, whose actions last summer got mixed into the 2020 election discussion, made headlines earlier this week after putting President Joe Biden on notice for what he views as defamation.

"He came over with his mother," Trump said. "Really a nice young man, and what he went through, that was prosecutorial misconduct. He should not have had to suffer through a trial like that."

"I got to know him a little bit," Trump said. "He called, wanted to know if he could come over and say hello because he was a fan, unlike the other guy."
...

"He should never have been put through that," Trump said. "That was prosecutorial misconduct, and it's happening all over the United States right now with the Democrats."
...

Rittenhouse slammed Biden during an interview with Tucker Carlson on Monday, stating a 2020 campaign ad linking him to white supremacists was "actual malice" and defamed his character.
...

Democrats have become a defamation machine falsely accusing people who disagree with them of being a "white supremacist."  In Rittenhouse's case, it was part of a nationwide defamation campaign against someone exercising his right to self-defense.  Biden made the statement without evidence and it looks like an attempt to deny him a fair trial.  There was certainly no evidence presented at the trial that suggested a racial motive.

Instapundit adds:

WHY THE LEFT IS OUTRAGED OVER THE RITTENHOUSE VERDICT: “Basically guys, all the outrage over this trial is because the left is terrified of losing another tool in their toolbox. They love lawless mobs terrorizing you and wrecking your stuff. They love having you too scared of the system to stand up to their dirtbags.”

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
