Adam Schiff accused of falsely accusing Trump of promoting violence

 Red States:

Elon Musk has reinstated President Donald Trump’s account on Twitter. Trump hasn’t even tweeted anything and has previously said that he’s now busy with Truth Social so he wouldn’t be coming back to Twitter.

But that hasn’t stopped the left from flipping out that Musk would allow Trump back on the platform. The liberal tears over the fact that Trump is back on the platform and they no longer control Twitter are delicious.

Now add Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) into those flipping out. You know that if Schiff is mad, it’s a good thing. Check out the eyes — every time he does that “side-eye” thing, you know a lie is coming.

Schiff claimed that Trump used Twitter to incite the “attack on the Capitol.” That, of course, was a lie.

Let’s check out those tweets that got him suspended from Twitter. Twitter claimed these tweets violated their “glorification of violence” policy.

On January 8, 2021, President Donald J. Trump Tweeted:

“The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!”

Shortly thereafter, the President Tweeted:

“To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.”

Did you see the “glorification of violence” there? What, you missed it? As any sane person might since it wasn’t there.

Meanwhile, the fact was there were these tweets urging people to act peacefully.

They completely blow up the narrative that Schiff and much of the media have been trying to push for the past couple of years.

...

I get the impression that Shiff and other Democrats wanted to censor Trump for political reasons and talked the old Twitter management into going along with their censorious plan.  Red States gets the story right.

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
