Trump rallies thousands against Biden and impeachment supporters

 Washington Examiner:

Former President Donald Trump took a victory lap during his first rally since departing office, saying of President Joe Biden, "I told you so."

Trump expressed vindication during his Saturday rally in Wellington, Ohio, held to support Max Miller, a Trump-endorsed candidate running a primary challenge to Rep. Anthony Gonzalez, an incumbent Republican who voted in favor of impeaching Trump on the charge of inciting an insurrection.

"The media and the Democrats are now admitting that I was right about everything. ... Now they're saying, 'Well, you know, he was right about these things. That's all right. Big deal, right?'" he said. "They lied about so many things before the election."

Trump pointed to the media's shifting tone on the origins of COVID-19, the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine in combating the virus, and the use of Lafayette Park as the backdrop for a photo-op amid racial unrest last year as evidence that the press was unfair in its coverage leading up to the 2020 presidential election.

Despite most legacy media outlets initially dismissing the theory that COVID-19 originated in the Wuhan Institute of Virology, evidence has mounted in support of the lab leak theory in recent weeks, and Biden has directed authorities to investigate the possibility within 90 days.

Several news outlets were also dismissive of the effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine in treating COVID-19, but a study published earlier this month found the drug, along with azithromycin, could increase the coronavirus survival rate by as much as nearly 200% if distributed at higher doses to ventilated patients with a severe version of the illness.

On June 9, a government report from the Department of the Interior said that U.S. Park Police did not clear Lafayette Park, situated near the White House, and its surrounding areas of protesters on June 1, 2020, for Trump. Instead, the Park Police learned of Trump's interest in the site several hours after they had already started plans to clear the area to put up new fencing.

Trump, who is believed to be a 2024 contender, also expressed vindication regarding his campaign predictions about his successor.

"Biden is going to drive our economy and our country into ruin," he said, slamming the president for helping to kill the planned Keystone XL pipeline and accusing him of imposing a "devastating" tax hike on U.S. industries.

Trump said Biden's performance has been "embarrassing" on the world stage, accusing him of kowtowing to China.

"Joe Biden is squandering all of this hard-earned respect that we have or had, bowing down to America's enemies, and embarrassing our country on the world stage," he said.

...

This looks like an "I told you so" tour for President Trump.  He is making that clear to not only people who voted for Biden but also the media that propagated the lies against Trump and his administration.  The American media is the least trusted in the world according to recent surveys and one reason for that is the shockingly bad and unfair reporting about Trump starting with the Russian collusion hoax and continuing right through the false assertions of an insurrection perpetrated by Trump.  Their irrational hatred of Trump blinded them to the facts and misled voters into supporting a senile Biden.

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

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
