The Biden's 'great week'?

 Jeb Babbin:

...

The Democrats are shouting from the rooftops that Biden had a great week. Has anyone else noticed that when Biden has a "great" week, it’s a really lousy week for the country?

The "Great Raid," the FBI’s search of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Florida home, was the first time in the history of the United States that a former president’s residence and offices were searched by law enforcement. It made us equivalent to so many tin-pot dictatorships in which current rulers use the country’s politicized justice system to imprison or otherwise punish political opponents. After the Russia-Steele dossier hoax, many people grew to distrust the FBI for its evident political bias. This makes that distrust grow. The Jan. 6 committee and this raid are aimed at only one thing: preventing Trump from running in 2024. They may or may not succeed. One thing is for certain. The Monday raid was another enormous abuse of executive power by Biden and his minions.

Biden’s "Inflation Reduction Act’" passed the Senate early in the week and the House on Friday. The $750 billion — that’s three-quarters of a trillion dollars — in spending includes hiring 87,000 new IRS agents (but not one new Border Patrol agent), a steaming pile of enviro-whacko spending, and putting the government in charge of negotiating drug prices on consumers' behalf. The bill’s name is a sick joke. It will obviously accelerate inflation, not reduce it. We are in a recession caused by excessive, irresponsible government spending by Biden and his congressional allies. The only question is how long the recession will last and how bad it will be. Biden is on the way to being the next Herbert Hoover, the president during the Great Depression.

The only good news is that inflation moderated slightly in July, down to 8.5%, down from 9.1% in June. The Democrats believe Biden should be praised for this, ignoring his complete responsibility for causing inflation in the first place. It’s like their claim that we should be grateful that the price of gasoline has come down about 25 cents in the past month or so — after Biden’s policies caused it to about double since he came to office.

Another week when Biden’s great "success" drags our country down.

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
