Border ranchers suffer as result of open border

 Fox News:

Texas ranchers plea for help from Gov. Abbott after third attempted break-in amid migrant crisis

Debbie Douglas says her family is living in fear due to the Biden administration's inaction at the border

...

"It is very sad that we cannot come up here and enjoy the life that we did several years ago without fearing for our lives," Debbie said. "We have constantly got to be armed. We've constantly got to be watching the little one so that she doesn't get out of our sight… the solution is to close the borders. Our governor has got to do something."

Scott said he feels that "nothing is being done" by the federal government at the U.S.-Mexico border to the point that police from all over the state have come in to assist Border Patrol.

"We've got to close down the border. You know, this administration is not doing anything about it. So we've got to rely on our governor to step in and take up the slack," he said.

Debbie said there is now "no feeling of safety" at their ranch because of the crisis.

"It is always fearful. You're always looking over your shoulder. You're always listening for sounds that are not familiar to you. You do not feel safe. You can't even go out on the porch in the mornings to drink your coffee without a gun on you," she said.

"This is the third time within 18 months that we've had illegals here at our property," Scott added.

Biden's irresponsible border policy is leading to increasing crime for residents and property owners near the 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
