Dems tried to suppress IRS whistleblower testimony

 Fox News:

Every House Democrat on the committee that released whistleblower testimony about the Hunter Biden tax probe on Thursday voted to keep that information hidden from the public eye.

A pair of IRS whistleblowers accused the Biden administration of stymying U.S. Attorney David Weiss’ investigation into President Biden’s son, which resulted in a plea deal earlier this week that is expected to see him avoid time behind bars. Hunter Biden agreed to plead guilty to a pair of tax-related misdemeanor charges, but the whistleblowers claimed that it came after the Department of Justice "provided preferential treatment, slow-walked the investigation, did nothing to avoid obvious conflicts of interest in this investigation."

House Ways & Means Committee Chair Jason Smith, R-Mo., said Republicans acted "in good faith" while accusing Democrats of "side-stepping" the two whistleblowers’ testimonies.

"Democrats will come to regret their vote as more facts in this investigation come to light and are judged in the court of public opinion. The scales of Justice cannot be skewed in favor of the wealthy and the politically connected," Smith told Fox News Digital on Friday.
...

"During our committee meeting, Democrats sidestepped the whistleblowers’ damning testimony about misconduct and special treatment in the investigation into Hunter Biden’s alleged tax crimes," Smith said. "Throughout the process, Republicans acted in good faith, sharing information and making Democrats equal participants in the whistleblower interviews."

Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., a member of the panel, told Fox News Digital on Friday that his Democratic counterparts’ "no" votes amounted to "covering" for Hunter Biden.

"The evidence presented to committee members couldn’t have been more clear. The Biden administration weaponized the federal government to protect the president’s son from the consequences of his illegal actions," Hern said. "It’s hard to believe anyone would vote to participate in covering up those crimes, but that’s exactly what every Democrat member of the committee did."
...

I think Joe was aware of much of what Hunter was up to and went along with it.  There is some evidence that Joe took a cut of the money from the deals.

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
