DOJ accused of trying to stifle whistleblower contact with Congress

 Wes Walker:

...

The whistleblowers Jordan was talking about on that show have been debriefed by Congress. The information they brought to light about how things are being run in the DOJ was enough to generate a 1050-page report detailing how corrupt and politicized many aspects of the DOJ have become.

A report like that sure dovetails with what we’ve learned about what kind of investigations these people prioritize. One of the worst examples was when a whistleblower claimed he was pulled off of a child trafficking case that was ‘not a priority so that he could chase down someone in Florida who was present for J6, but after being waved in, did not commit any acts that could be construed as violations of the law.

Other examples would be the refusal to prosecute protesters outside the home of sitting court justices (a felony), known abortion activists who coordinated and/or committed violent acts against churches and pro-life institutions, ranging from threats of violence to actual firebombings (felonies, all) … but they were more interested in chasing down parents at school board meetings, pro-life protesters, or people flying the Betsy Ross flag. These sorts of points were even raised in the early pages of the report:+

... 
But as one example of something that hasn’t been reported on before now… Using Facebook as a third-party spy, collecting personal information, and giving it to the government as a workaround for Constitutional barriers forbidding the government from spying on a citizen without a judge providing a warrant? (We remind our readers that even the meaning of the word ‘warrant’ means to ‘make necessary. 
...

There is much more in this summary of the 1050-page document.  Actually, we were seeing this problem with the DOJ and FBI for months in media reports about the prosecutions being pushed by the agencies.

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.
