Root cause of border crisis is in White House, not Guatemala

 Red States:

...

Further, her early June “Northern Triangle” trip was an utter disaster, especially after Guatemala’s President Alejandro Giammattei did an interview during Harris’s trip to his country and point-blank blamed the Biden-Harris administration for the border surge.

Unfortunately for the Biden administration – Kamala Harris specifically – Giammattei is speaking out again on diplomatic relations between the two countries. And what he said just blew the White House’s “root causes” narrative right out of the water:

Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin, who has been reporting live from the border for months now, provided his own translation for what Giammattei said:

So not only has Harris not visited the Northern Triangle region since her June trip (something we already knew) but apparently, there have been no phone calls or virtual conferences between Harris and Giammattei, either, on the subject of the “root causes” of the border crisis and how to go about resolving them.

To reemphasize, this is the area that the White House has told us is central to resolving the problems at the border. And yet Biden’s own point person on this matter, his second in command, can’t even be bothered to follow up with leaders of those countries after her lone visit, which was months ago?

...

This is clearly a false narrative by the Biden administration which opened to borders and is now seeing people coming from over 100 counntries around the world to cross the border.  There may be more Russians than Gautamalens illegally immigrating to the US.  The Venezuelans and Cubans that are coming appear to be the only ones Biden wants to excude.  Their experience with socialism makes them an unlikely group to every vote for Democrats.

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.
