Desperate Biden to play abortion card before mid-terms

 Red States:

...

“Yes — critics point out he could do this now if all Dems were on board,” O’Keefe noted in a short Twitter thread. “And yes, also notable he would make abortion rights his first legislative priority when polls show voters are most concerned with the economy and inflation.”

Why would Biden do this? No doubt to shore up his base at a time when Democrats are panicking and are signaling they know it’s going to be bad but hopefully not as bad as it was predicted to be before the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade back in June.

Except abortion was already going to be *the* primary motivator for the hardcore Democratic base. The voters Biden has to worry about losing here ahead of the midterms are independent voters and even some middle-of-the-road Democratic women voters who have repeatedly sent strong signals in recent weeks that their priorities are kitchen-table issues that impact their families, not abortion.

In other words, as the “Joe Biden/Democrats are on the comeback trail after abortion ruling” media narrative crumbles, the POTUS will go for broke in shamelessly bribing pro-abortion Democratic voters who were already in his back pocket in an effort to make sure they get out and vote.
...

Abortion is an important issue to a small fraction of the voters. But it seems to be all the Biden Democrats have at this point.

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...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
