US should treat Mexican cartel like an enemy

 DailyWire:

Former Attorney General William Barr implied Friday that the United States should take care of drug cartels south of the border with the same ferocity used to all but wipe the Islamic State off the face of the earth.

Appearing on Newsmax, Barr told Greta Van Susteren that the Biden administration’s strategy against the illicit international criminal organizations is not working.

“They are effectively terrorist organizations,” Barr told the host of “The Record With Greta Van Susteren,” referring to drug cartels. “They are increasingly building their connections with terrorists. Their paramilitary can take on the Mexican military, and they have so much money they can corrupt any system.”

Barr added, “The United States [has been] relegated to working through Mexico to try to deal with the cartels, and I think that’s a losing proposition.”

The former attorney general declared that these nefarious actors should be treated “more like ISIS and less like the mafia.”

Under his old boss, former President Donald Trump, the U.S. military liberated millions of people from ISIS while dwindling their control of land in the Middle East. Military leaders credited Trump’s aggressive but non-micromanaging approach to that success at the time.
...

Currently, the Biden administration has “essentially abandoned the border” to the cartels, according to Barr. Barr also said these cartels are bringing in “poison” responsible for more than 100,000 American deaths per year. Last fall, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention announced that fentanyl was a leading cause of death in the opioid crisis in 2020. The federal government has reported that the “Sinaloa and the New Generation Jalisco (Cártel de Jalisco Nueva Generación or CJNG) cartels are likely the primary trafficking groups responsible for smuggling fentanyl” into the U.S. from Mexico.
...

Barr is right.  Mexico is either unwilling are incapable of taking on the cartels who are working with the Chicoms to poison Americans with dangerous drugs.  They have been responsible for killing thousands of Americans and should be treated like an enemy.

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
