Democrats accused of colluding with Big Tech to censor

 Newsmax:

Democrats have managed to corner the market on Big Tech, speech, and thought, but it has become apparent to many more now and Republicans are going to expose it if they retake Congress in 2022, according to Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., on Newsmax.

Democrats and the government are colluding with Big Tech," Boebert told "Saturday Report." "They are running the show for them. And remember when Jen Psaki said that the White House is working with Facebook to censor misinformation, and we're hearing that that's all opinion based."

Boebert was referring to Facebook being forced to admit in court that "fact-checkers" are opinions.

"Americans want the truth," Boebert told host Carl Higbie. "They need the truth. They deserve it. And one of the things that I'm looking forward to is when Republicans take back the majority is true investigations to get to the bottom of all of this and reveal that to the American people."

Ultimately Democrats should be concerned about Big Tech's taking sides, because they might eventually wind up on the other side of things, Boebert noted, lamenting, "Democrats are OK with a sitting president of the United States being censored – a duly elected sitting member of Congress being censored," pointing to former President Donald Trump and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga.

"It doesn't matter what side of the aisle you affiliate yourself with, you are affected by Big Tech censorship," she said. "We're living in a dystopian nightmare where unelected Big Tech companies serve as the ultimate arbiters of truth. So-called independent fact checkers are the left's thought police and they come after any conservatives who dared to question their narrative."
...

I oppose Big Tech censorship.  The only good thing to come from it is that alternative sites are being created to expose what they are trying to hide from the public.

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
