Biden polling poorly with Democrats?

 Newsmax:

Poll: Less Than 58 Percent of Dems Would Vote for Biden in 2024 Primary

Democrats are also facing headwinds in redistricting in GOP-controlled states. 

Redistricting across many battleground swing states could imperil Democrats’ chances of holding their House majority.

Despite winning the presidential election, Democrats did not fare well in down-ticket races such as the state legislature and gubernatorial elections. Now, Republican-controlled legislatures can move forward with redistricting in a manner some Democrats claim could result in them losing many swing district seats.

For instance, even though now-President Joe Biden won New Hampshire, the Republican-controlled state legislature could change Rep. Chris Pappas’s seat (D-NH) to make it more favorable for Republicans.

“I already serve in a Republican district, and they’re already talking about making it even more Republican,” Pappas told Politico.

Former Donald Trump administration official and New Hampshire Republican Matt Mowers lost by roughly five percent against Pappas but redistricting could give Mowers the edge during the next election cycle.

“The state Republican Party chair has made a pretty strong pronouncement that they will elect a conservative Republican to my district in the next election — but we’ll see,” Pappas added.

Republicans have to regain roughly a net six seats to regain the House majority, and redistricting could help them achieve that during the 2022 midterm elections.

I think Democrats will not do well in 2022.  When Trump was President he polled in the high to mid 90s with Republicans

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.

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.
