The Dem attack on Alito

 Red State:

As their desperation grows, Democrats and their media allies have pulled out all the stops in recent weeks to try and disqualify/discredit another conservative Supreme Court Justice for the crime of WrongThink.

This time around, it's not Justice Clarence Thomas Democrats have taken aim at but Justice Samuel Alito, whose apparent sin was his wife briefly flying the American flag at their home upside down 11 days after the Capitol riot, and the "Appeal to Heaven" flag being flown at his beach house for a period of time in 2023.

Both flags, the New York Times breathlessly proclaimed, were "January 6 symbols." Naturally, they cited purported "experts" who claimed Alito had crossed the line of propriety and should immediately recuse himself from cases related to Jan. 6 and the 2020 presidential election.

Almost as though it was coordinated (because let's face it, it probably was), Democrat "leaders" in Congress including Sen. Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-IL) rushed to the Twitter machine to accuse Alito, without evidence, of "ethical misconduct" that contributed to what he called the "ongoing ethical crisis" with the Supreme Court....
...

Two days later, as everyone was set to begin their Memorial Day weekend, Durbin, alongside his court-packing corruptocrat colleague Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), sent a feverish letter to Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, demanding a meeting with him to convince him to "take appropriate steps to ensure Justice Samuel Alito recuses himself" from those cases....
...

This looks like a bad-faith attempt by Democrats to try to rig an outcome in a judicial opinion.  The court should dismiss the complaint against Alito.

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
