Bodies of 46 migrants found in truck near San Antonio

 Washington Examiner:

Dozens of migrants were found dead by law enforcement inside a tractor-trailer.

Officials confirmed a total of 46 bodies were found in the back of a commercial truck parked roughly 3 miles southwest of downtown San Antonio, roughly an hour's drive south of Austin, according to My San Antonio.

Fire Chief Charles Hood said a further 16 people, 12 adults and four children, were transported to local hospitals suffering from heat-related injuries.

"Patients that we saw were hot to the touch," Hood said, according to the outlet, adding that he did not know how long the people had been in the trailer.

Police Chief William McManus said three people are in custody but that it is unclear whether they are connected to the incident.

The investigation has now been turned over to the Department of Homeland Security.

The people who died in the tractor-trailer are migrants who are believed to have been transported as part of a human smuggling operation, according to multiple law enforcement agencies, per Fox News.

...

These people are part of Joe Biden's open borders legacy.  He would be remembered for their plight and that of others who died along the way to the US.  They will go along with the bodies found by ranchers along the Texas border.

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.

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
