Republicans respond to Biden seeking reelection

 Fox News:

...

South Carolina Republican Sen. Tim Scott, who recently launched a 2024 presidential exploratory committee, told Fox News Digital that another "term would be a disaster for the American people."

"Joe Biden and the radical Left’s blueprint to ruin America includes attacking our patriotism, targeting our religious liberties, leaving our border wide open, and wasting trillions of dollars we don’t have," Scott said.

"My story is only possible in this country, but they are attacking every rung of the ladder that allowed me to climb," the South Carolina Republican continued. "Championing what makes America the greatest country on earth is on the line."

"We need a president who will restore hope, create opportunity, and protect America," he added. "I have faith in America, and it’s about time the president did too."

GOP presidential contender Larry Elder told Fox News Digital that after "the Democrats’ better than expected performance in the 2022 midterms, it was clear that Biden, if he could fog up a mirror, would be running for reelection despite his unpopularity, and the even more unpopular vice president."

"Unfortunately, for Biden-Harris, they have a record to run on: record levels of inflation; high gas prices; reckless spending; support for Covid lockdowns that, among other unintended consequences, set American kids further back in math and reading; the disastrous Afghanistan, pull out; borders overrun resulting in millions of on accountable illegal aliens in the country, some of home are on the terror watchlist; crime on the uptick in many of our major cities due to George Soros backed soft-on-crime DAs and the Democrats’ anti-cop rhetoric; and forcing Americans to buy electric vehicles based on the dubious argument that EVs are more positive for the environment than gasoline powered vehicles while making us even more dependent on China, or countries controlled by China, to mine and produce the rare earth minerals necessary for the EV battery, and in some cases, using child labor to do so."

Former Vice President Mike Pence told Fox News Digital, "The Biden administration’s record is a record of failure at home and abroad."

"We as Republicans welcome the opportunity to contrast the failed policies of the Biden administration and present our records to the American people: a thriving economy, energy independence, a secure southern border, crime controlled in our cities, and peace through strength overseas," Pence said.
...

House Republican Conference chairwoman Elise Stefanik of New York said in a statement that our "country will not support another four years of Joe Biden's disastrous policies crushing hardworking American families."

"The American people are suffering from crippling inflation, record illegal border crossings, and woke policies that seek to destroy our freedoms," Stefanik said. "Joe Biden has never been in a weaker position. Not only do the vast majority of Americans strongly disapprove of his presidency and policies, even over 50 percent of Democrats do not want him to run again."
...

"Finish what job, destroying America?" Wisconsin GOP Senator Ron Johnson tweeted.
...

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz tweeted out a list of things that "Joe Biden means by 'Let’s finish the job.'"

"Worsening crime rates. More economic struggles. Higher inflation. Exacerbated border crisis. America’s enemies further emboldened. Increased attacks on religious liberty and our Constitutional rights," Cruz wrote.

"Hell no," he added.
...

There is more.

That Biden will be allowed to run again is evidence of how weak the Democrat bench is.  Biden is a terrible candidate who has done a terrible job as president and Vice President Kamala Harris is even worse.

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
