Ukraine alleges stiff resistance

 DailyWire:

Ukraine Official Claims Russian Troops Have Suffered Nearly 3,000 Casualties, Lost Hundreds Of Military Vehicles, Numerous Aircraft

Time will tell how effective the Ukraine resistance is.  At this point, the Russian advance does not appear to be as rapid as they planned. 

...

The latest figures appear to confirm what U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL), vice chair of the U.S. Senate Select Intelligence Committee, relayed on Thursday, stating that the Russian conquest of Ukraine was taking longer than Russian Vladimir Putin expected and was also costlier.

“Russia’s invasion has already taken longer & been costlier than Putin expected. Almost certain his military & intel leaders knew this ahead of time but no one dared tell him his expectations were unrealistic,” Rubio tweeted.

Rubio also added that one of the main immediate goals of Putin and the Russian army is to overthrow the government in the nation’s capital, Kyiv, and install an interim Russian-puppet government.

Despite that intelligence and the apparent constant barrage of attacks aimed at toppling Kyiv, The Daily Wire reported on Friday morning that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said during a televised address will not be fleeing the country:

“I know that a lot of misinformation and rumors are being spread now,” Zelensky stated. “In particular, it is claimed that I have left Kyiv. I remain in the capital; I am staying with my people. My family is not a traitor, but a citizen of Ukraine. According to our information, the enemy marked me as the number one target. My family is the number two goal. They want to destroy Ukraine politically by destroying the Head of State. We have information that enemy sabotage groups have entered Kyiv. … I am staying in the government quarter together with others.”

Evidence of the Ukrainian people’s fighting spirit can further be seen in the 13 Ukrainian service members who told Russian battleships to “go f*** yourself,” rather than surrender to their enemies. All 13 service members were killed, but are being praised around the world for dying heroically, The Daily Wire reported.
...

Zelensky is showing great courage.

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
