Wealthy donor backing Trump with millions

 Newsmax:

Billionaire Dr. Miriam Adelson is planning to spend $100 million in support of Republican presumptive nominee Donald Trump's presidential bid, The New York Times reported Tuesday.

The financial backing would make Adelson, 78, one of the biggest donors in November's presidential election, according to the report. Adelson and her late husband, Republican power broker Sheldon Adelson, gave $90 million in support of Trump in 2020.
...

She is described by the Times as "pro-Israel and rabidly partisan."

Adelson is a former officer in the Israeli Defense Forces who spends most of her time at her longtime home in Israel, where she was born.

In Trump's first administration, the Adelsons pushed for the U.S. embassy in Israel to be moved from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, which he did. Adelson does not have a specific wish list for Trump this time around, according to the report.
...

Biden has been accused of becoming somewhat more restrictive in backing Israel  Trump appears more robust in his backing of Israel.

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...

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
