Pollster gives Biden an "F" for the week

 Jeb Babbin:

...

It was one of those weeks we must be glad is over. From Biden’s appeasement of Russia to Harris’s pronouncements, it was another “wait, what?" week for the administration.

Someone proposed a drinking game for Biden’s State of the Union address in which you took a shot of whiskey for every lie spoken. If anyone was unwise enough to play, they’d have died of alcohol poisoning.

Biden essentially promised to make everything free. He said he’d cut the deficit and secure the border. He confused Ukrainians with Iranians and didn't even call on Russian President Vladimir Putin to stop the slaughter in Ukraine. He said we were stronger today than we were a year ago (with inflation the highest in 40 years, the Biden-created border crisis continuing to get worse, and Putin hinting at nuclear war). Naturally, he made no mention of his Afghanistan debacle.

...

The one good thing he said in the address was that he was closing U.S. airspace to Russian aircraft, following the example of a dozen European countries. Biden, continuing to rely on Russia for help with another Iran nuclear deal, is busy appeasing his pal Vlad by buying about 600,000 barrels of Russian oil every day. Even House Speaker Nancy Pelosi thinks that is a bad idea. Rumors say that the new Iran deal will be announced in the next few days with amazingly bad concessions to Iran without getting anything from Iran. And it will all be done without the legally required disclosures to Congress.

...

Meanwhile, oil is heading to over $120 per barrel, up from about $65 a few months ago. Over 1 million refugees have already fled the Russian war on Ukraine, and millions more may soon follow.

...

There is more including Kamala Harris's statement on the war in Ukraine.  You have to be a Democrat optimist to think Biden had a good week unless you are comparing it to his other bloopers.

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.
