Texas offers plan to help Trump with deportation

 DC Daily Journal:

...

Texas is stepping up to support President-elect Donald Trump’s promise to secure America’s borders and restore law and order by offering over 1,400 acres of land for the incoming administration’s mass deportation operations.

The tract, located in Starr County within the Rio Grande Valley, is positioned to serve as a key hub in Trump’s plan to remove violent criminals who have entered the country illegally.

Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham revealed the bold move in a letter to Trump, stating her office is “fully prepared to enter into an agreement with the Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or the United States Border Patrol to allow a facility to be built for the processing, detention, and coordination of the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation’s history.”

In an interview with Fox News Digital, Buckingham emphasized her support for Trump’s strong stance on immigration and public safety.

“What I care about is that we have safe communities, and there is no doubt that we are losing too many of our children to these violent criminals that are coming across the border,” she said.

“I am 100% on board with the Trump administration’s pledge to get these criminals out of our country, and we are more than happy to offer our resources to facilitate those deportations.”
...

Starr County is 97 percent Hispanic, but recently Trump won most of its votes.  The county is cooperating with Texas and the immigration service to facilitate the deportations.  The county is on the border and inland from the Gulf of Mexico.  I suspect the land being offered is rather sparse in vegetation other than cactus.

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
