Left losing it on illegals 'deported' to their jurisdictions

 PJ Media:

...

The hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens the Biden administration caught and released had to go somewhere. Most of them were released in Texas and Arizona. To say that those small border cities like McAllen, Texas, aren’t prepared for the massive influx of humanity would be an understatement. So Abbott and DeSantis decided to pull a political stunt and bus the illegal aliens someplace they were sure they’d be welcome: sanctuary cities like New York, Washington, and Chicago.

Abbott and now DeSantis have exposed the reeking hypocrisy of the left using this political gambit. And judging by the leftist meltdown underway, they know it and are hysterical about it.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) — always good for a hysterical rant against Republicans — called the busing of illegals a “crime against humanity.” She also got her history all wrong — as usual.
...

“A Sadistic Immigration Stunt,” sniffs The Atlantic‘s Tom Nichols. “Let’s Call DeSantis’s Migrant Stunt What it is — Kidnapping,” bleats The Nation‘s Elie Mystal.

Jonathan Turley tried to inject a little sanity into the discussion. “No, Transporting Undocumented Migrants to Martha’s Vineyard is not ‘Literally Human Trafficking.'” Hillary Clinton made that suggestion.

Laughably, the Washington Post published an op-ed seriously trying to make a case that the flight to Martha’s Vineyard was “Reverse Freedom Rides” because some segregationists had flown some black families to Martha’s Vineyard 60 years ago to “get back” at the Yankees for the Freedom Rides the previous summer. The only problem with that is that DeSantis is not a segregationist. But otherwise… whatever.

My favorite headline has to be from the Miami Herald: “With shameful Martha’s Vineyard stunt, DeSantis dishes out cruelty with a smirk.” I guess they think DeSantis is some kind of Simon Legree, twirling his mustache with an evil cackle as the poor illegal aliens are… what? Treated with respect, dignity, and compassion?

There is no “cruelty.” There is no “crime against humanity.” There is only leftist hysteria because Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott have stolen a march on the left and have them desperate and on their back foot trying to respond effectively.

Voluntary rides to liberal states would only be cruel if those states were cruel to their newcomers.  At any rate, if these people have a gripe it is with Biden and not DeSantis and Abbott.  Biden is the one whose dereliction of duty is allowing the invasion of the southern border.

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
