Democrats start to notice they elected a Dud in Biden

 Naomi Lim:

President Joe Biden is contending with a Democratic whispering campaign, and some considerably louder protests, ahead of November's midterm elections and expectations the party will sustain severe losses at the polls.

But as Democrats express their frustrations over abortion access and others position themselves for their future political ambitions, the party is not working together to ease the pain it is anticipated to experience in the fall.

OBAMA AND CLINTON MIDTERM POLLING OMINOUS FOR BIDEN'S NOVEMBER ELECTION PROSPECTS

Biden has not "risen to the occasion" after the Supreme Court reversed abortion rights precedent Roe v. Wade, according to Democratic strategist Stefan Hankin, whose comments echo the concerns of Democrats quoted in numerous articles complaining about the president.

"We definitively do not live in normal times," he told the Washington Examiner. "The measured approach now comes across as either uncaring and/or not meeting anyone where they are."

"If you're the head of the coalition, you want everyone in the coalition to feel like they have a connection to what you're saying," Hankin said. "His responses so far have been a milquetoast."

At the same time, Hankin implored liberals lobbying Biden to support far-left policies to, "like, stop" because a "big and bold" agenda will not pass Congress, "certainly not this year." Negotiations with Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) over a compromise social welfare and climate spending bill have notched progress on drug costs and methane emission fees. Biden is additionally considering forgiving $10,000 in federal student loan debt for people earning less than $150,000 per annum.

...

Biden is just one of their problems.  Pelosi and Schumer also listened to the left-wing of the party and pushed a wholly unrealistic big-spending agenda.  They were in on the cause of the inflation and even tried to spend more.  The leadership seems unable to move the party to the center.  It will take the coming shellacking to do that.

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.
