The case against Democrats agenda

 Steve Scalise:

In 100 days, the American people will be able to cast their first vote against Joe Biden’s failed presidency.

Biden is asleep at the wheel and, coupled with Democrats’ disastrous leadership of the House and Senate, gas prices have reached record highs, the cost of food and everyday household goods has skyrocketed, illegal immigrants and deadly drugs are pouring across our open southern border, and crime is surging across the country.

All economic indicators point to our nation being in a recession. However, you won’t hear this from Biden or his spin doctors in the White House because they have no plan to fix these crises that they created.

Ahead of the second quarter GDP numbers being announced, the White House attempted to redefine what a "recession" means.

Here’s the truth: Crippling inflation is reducing wages and erasing families’ savings.

American households faced nearly $500 in additional expenses in June due to inflation reaching a 41-year high.

Compared to just one year ago, average hourly earnings were down 3.6 percent after adjusting for inflation.

By starting an all-out assault on American energy, Biden has caused gas prices to skyrocket, creating real pain at the pump for hard-working families.

At the beginning of 2021, Democrats rammed their $1.9 trillion far-left wish list through Congress, despite Republican objections over its potential damage to the economy.

We must hold Democrats accountable for their wasteful spending and extremist policies that caused this recession.

Violent crime and murder are surging because of Democrats’ support for the radical "Defund the Police" movement.

By slashing police budgets, ending cash bail, and allowing violent offenders back on the streets, Democrats have made our communities less safe.

More than 15 U.S. cities saw their 2021 murder rates shatter previous records.

To add insult to injury, Democrats’ smear campaign against the brave men and women in blue has made it nearly impossible for police departments to recruit the qualified officers needed to keep our communities safe.

The Police Executive Research Forum surveyed nearly 200 police departments from across the country and found that retirements have increased by 45 percent, and resignations have jumped by 18 percent from April 2020 to April 2021.

Democrats haven’t just chosen criminals over cops, Biden has surrendered control of our southern border to illegal immigrants and violent drug cartels.
...

Scalise is spot on in his criticism of the Biden administration and the Democrats.  What Biden has been doing is fulfilling the Democrat wish list with executive actions that have made things much worse coming out of the pandemic.

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
