DeSantis challenges Dem changes to voting laws in 2020

 Red States:

...

DeSantis’ framing of the subject is smart because it’s so obviously true. The way to critique the 2020 election has always been to point out what Democrats did at the state level to sway things, not to obsess over marginal theories surrounding voting machines and such. Voting laws also represent the battleground that can most readily be fought on with electoral power. DeSantis’ call is a reminder that Republicans must stand in the way of future attempts to subvert our elections, and no “emergency” provides enough justification to do so.

Moving past that, DeSantis nailed the FBI for its recent raid on Mar-a-Lago as a broader criticism of the weaponization of the DOJ.


When you see someone hit the laundry list of all the corrupt, partisan actions taken by the FBI over the last seven years, it hits hard. Yes, the raid on Trump’s home was terrible, but it was only the latest in a long list of abuses of power, from the falsification of the Carter Page FISA warrant to targeting parents for speaking out at school board meetings. There is no greater task for the next Republican president than to gut these agencies, and DeSantis, if he’s that guy, has shown that he understands the issue and is willing to take action.

...

The Democrats deliberately did away with voter integrity measures in 2020 and took other measures that make the vote count suspect.

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
