Raid on Mar-a-Lago part of Dem cover up attempt?

 Matt Margolis:

...

Sources connected to Trump told Rolling Stone he was afraid the incoming Biden administration would “shred,” bury, or destroy evidence that exposed the Deep State plot against him, so before leaving office, he declassified all the documents connected to Crossfire Hurricane—the Obama investigation into the bogus allegations of Russian collusion.

This explanation matches past reporting. Anonymous intelligence officials previously told Newsweek the FBI was really after documents related to the Russian collusion hoax, and Trump himself hinted that Russian collusion documents might be among the materials at Mar-a-Lago.

“I think they thought it was something to do with the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax,” Trump told Newsmax in an interview earlier this month. “They were afraid that things were in there — part of their scam material.”

Last week, former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe told Fox News that, based on his observations, the Biden administration did not find what it was looking for during the raid on Mar-a-Lago. “There weren’t nuclear secrets in Melania Trump’s underwear drawer, and they’re trying to justify what they’ve done,” he said.

And let’s be honest here, Trump had every reason to be afraid that the Biden administration would engage in a cover-up. The Obama administration fabricated the Russian collusion narrative, and Joe Biden was bringing many Obama administration alumni back with him. Meanwhile, former Attorney General Bill Barr appointed John Durham as a special counsel to protect the investigation into the origins of the Russiagate scandal, which is still underway.

This looks like a plausible explanation.  The attempts of the Biden administration to justify the raid keep getting debunked.

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
