The Biden crime spree

 Washington Post:

“Biden not only kept information he was not supposed to keep but he shared it with people who were not allowed to see it. He shared that information with his ghostwriter. Special counsel Hur said President Biden had ‘strong motivations’ to do so and to ignore the rules of properly handling the classified information in his notebooks. In fact, he had 8 million reasons to ignore the rules. Joe Biden shared some of the classified materials he kept with his ghostwriter who was writing a book for which Joe Biden received an 8 million dollar advance. So we have motive, 8 million dollar motive, and we have the elements of a crime.”

At a hearing in which Republicans voted to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress, Jordan asserted that the special counsel who investigated President Biden said he had a financial motive to improperly disclose classified information — a book deal with Flatiron Books in April 2017 that supposedly earned him $8 million. (That figure was an advance for three books, including one by Jill Biden.)

Robert K. Hur investigated Biden’s retention of classified documents when he was out of office, and issued a 388-page report on Feb. 8. The Justice Department released a transcript of Biden’s interview with Hur but has refused to provide the audio recording, which is the reason for the contempt vote.

There is much more.

While the DOJ is going after Trump with dubious cases it is not apparently going to charge Biden for mishandling classified documents.  It is just another example of the dual justice system in this country.

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
