Censorship and Democrats' paranoia

 Washington Examiner:

Is there an army of 30 million people preparing for revolution if Republicans don’t win the 2024 election?

Incredibly, the leading lights of our liberal media want you to think so. Asked by NBC’s Chuck Todd if it was “hyperbolic” to say that the Republican Party is plotting a coup for 2024, NBC News analyst John Heilemann said, “That’s not hyperbolic at all.”

“Research shows that something like 8%, and maybe as many as 12%, of the American people now say that Joe Biden was illegitimate and that violence is an appropriate tool to remove him and restore Donald Trump,” Heilemann continued. “That’s somewhere between 20 million and 30 million people. That’s a mass movement in America in favor of political violence.”

New York Times columnist David Leonhardt is similarly alarmed. He warns that we are “in the midst of a radical shift away from the democratic rules and traditions that have guided the country for a very long time.”

Speaking of a “radical shift away from democratic norms,” the Washington Post’s Dana Milbank argues that since “the country is in an existential struggle between self-governance and an authoritarian regime,” journalists should stop being objective and become “partisans” for the Democratic Party.

Don’t think for a second that any of these warnings are limited to former President Donald Trump. Harvard government professor Theda Skocpol tells The New York Times that while “Trump plays a crucial threatening role … things have now moved to the point that many Republican Party officials and elected officeholders are self-starters. If Trump disappears or steps back, other Trumpists will step up. Many are already in power.”

So it doesn’t actually matter if Trump runs again in 2024 or not. The liberal press have decided that the entire Republican Party is so evil that any vote for any Republican is a vote to end democracy in America.

What delusional nonsense.

...

Democrats and their media cohorts have unnecessarily created a lot of distrust of the 2020 election results by changing the rules to make it easier for Democrats to cheat and also by trying to suppress any investigation of alleged cheating.  This censorship of questioning leads to distrust of what looks like a rigged system.  There is deep distrust of how Democrats want to manage elections and telling people to shut-up only increases the distrust.

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
