Will Soros and BLM backed candidate for DA be defeated in Orange County, CA?

 Washington Examiner:

California Democrats may think three's a charm with their latest district attorney candidate, but after soft-on-crime prosecutors wrecked Los Angeles and San Francisco, it’s now three strikes and you're out, conservatives say.

Orange County’s staunch law-and-order District Attorney Todd Spitzer has found himself embroiled in a bitter contest against Democratic challenger Peter Hardin, who is hoping to capitalize on the wave of liberal prosecutors sweeping the nation — largely funded by billionaire George Soros.

“When it comes to the career criminals and repeat offenders preying on the system, we need to hammer those people,” Spitzer told the Washington Examiner. “The difference between me and the woke Hardins, George Gascons, and that ilk is they think everyone can be reformed and no one should be in prison because of social programs. You can see from the looting and smash-and-grabs that nothing can be further from the truth.”

A county that was once the Republican Party's national crown jewel has tarnished as Democrats have made inroads into elected offices once thought untouchable a decade ago. However, prosecutors and police have traditionally taken a hard-line approach to criminality, and so far, Orange County has escaped the massive violence elsewhere in the state.

Spitzer frequently uses #NoLAinOC to drive home his point, including in a Christmas post about a retail theft arrest. “DON'T MESS WITH OC! WE ARE NOT LADA GASCON! #NoLAinOC ,” he tweeted.
...

If Hardin thinks crime waves are "criminal justice reform" then he has no business being anywhere near a prosecutor's office.  The Soros-backed DAs across the country have been a disaster and all of them should be removed from office as soon as possible.

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
