Bernie Sanders tries to revive the Dems

 The Federalist Wire:

...

In a pointed critique following the recent 2024 election, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) stressed the need for the Democratic Party to prioritize the concerns of working-class Americans.

Sanders’ comments come in the wake of a significant Republican victory, with President-elect Donald Trump defeating Vice President Kamala Harris and sweeping all seven swing states. This outcome has sparked discussions on the Democratic Party’s current direction and strategy, with some questioning whether it has strayed too far from the core issues that matter to everyday workers.

Sanders, who comfortably secured re-election in Vermont, has been vocal in his concerns, arguing that the Democratic Party has drifted away from its working-class roots. Speaking on CNN’s State of the Union, he emphasized that Democrats need to show stronger support for economic policies aimed at benefiting working Americans.

“We need an agenda that says to the working class, we’re going to take on these powerful special interests and create an economy and a government that works for you,” Sanders asserted.

CNN’s Dana Bash pointed out that social and cultural divides are at play, with critics suggesting that Democrats have become overly focused on a “woke agenda.”
...

Woke was a ghetto expression to describe a political point of view.  It apparently has a limited reach in most neighborhoods.  Sanders is an old-time liberal who is trying to revive the party as most Americans have moved on and think things were better under Trump, which they were.

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
