Biden tries to take credit for job recovery after Covid

 PJ Media:

How much more bad news can Joe Biden take?

It’s been bad enough for him, with his lousy poll numbers and many begging him to drop out or else cut Kamala Harris loose in the hopes of saving his 2024 presidential campaign. But Biden thinks that he can convince the public he’s the greatest president for the economy in history.

“But, seriously, we’re living through one of the greatest job-creation periods in our history. And, folks, it’s not an accident. It’s not an accident,” he said just last week. “That literally is our economic plan in action — Bidenomics in action.”

Except, that’s not what has happened at all. First of all, Joe Biden is trying to take credit for the jobs returning that were lost during the COVID shutdowns — a talking point even the liberal media has fact-checked. But in reality, it turns out that Bidenomics is actually increasing the number of poor people in the country. According to a report from ABC News, the poverty rate in the United States increased in 2022 — the first increase in 13 years.
...

The reality is that Biden's response to Covid was a disaster for the economy as Democrats pushed school closures and job-killing programs.  The rejection of this agenda in the Red States such as Texas and Florida were the real bright spots in the economy.

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
