DeSantis continues to send Haitians to Dem locations

 Daily Mail:

Ron DeSantis has threatened to send Haitian migrants to leafy Democrat enclaves in the north as gang warfare engulfs the embattled Caribbean nation.

The Florida governor said refugees arriving in his state would go the same way as the thousands of migrants he has already bussed to Democrat strongholds such as Sacramento and Martha's Vineyard.

Attacks spread to upscale neighborhoods in Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince on Monday leaving at least a dozen people dead on Monday as cop turned gang leader Jimmy 'Barbecue' Cherizier attempts to seize power with his thousands of heavily-armed followers.

But DeSantis has already dispatched more than 100 police officers and state guards to coastal areas to sweep up any new arrivals escaping the violence.

'We do have our transport program also that's going to be operational,' he told podcaster Dana Loesch on Tuesday.

'Haitians land in the Florida Keys, their next stop very well may be Martha's Vineyard.'
...

Nearly 1.5 million Haitians are on the brink of famine according to aid groups and much of the capital remains without power after Monday's attacks on five of its power stations left them 'completely dysfunctional'.

Barbecue, a former police officer turned gangmaster has claimed responsibility for the latest surge in attacks, and said his goal is to capture Haiti's police chief and government ministers and prevent Henry's return to the Caribbean nation.

Barbecue's threats will have struck fear into the hearts of many Haitians, with his reputation for burning people alive - something he has long denied - preceding him.

He has promised a revolution and his gangs has said his goal is to capture Haiti's police chief and government ministers.

He is thought to be behind Monday's attacks in the relatively affluent Petionville neighborhood which awoke to more than a dozen bodies lying in its streets.

Haiti has been a poorly run country for decades.   I recall seeing Haitian refugees in St. Martin when I vacationed there several years ago.  They were a pretty surly lot who usually took jobs as servants.

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
