Trump expecting big win in primary race

 Newsmax:

Former President Donald Trump said he is going to have a big victory in the Republican South Carolina presidential primary Saturday, sending a signal to President Joe Biden that his campaign will be coming at him "like a freight train."

"We're going to have a gigantic victory here in South Carolina," Trump, the front-runner for the GOP nomination, told a raucous crowd Friday at the Winthrop Coliseum in Rock Hill, South Carolina at a rally that aired live on Newsmax and simulcast on the Newsmax2 online streaming platform. "We're going to show crooked Joe Biden and the radical left Democrats that we are coming like a freight train in November."

Trump then took aim at his lone remaining opponent, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, who was the U.N. ambassador in the first year of his administration. The FiveThirtyEight average of polling shows Trump with a 63.6% to 32.9% lead over Haley, who maintains she will stay in the race regardless of Saturday's outcome.
...

Trump is not only the front-runner in the GOP primary but is also ahead of Biden in the general election polling.  Electing Biden is seen as a mistake by many Americans.  Many in the media apparently took advantage of the COVID pandemic to push Biden over the finish line in 2020.  Biden has been a disaster with policies that led to high inflation and wars in Europe and the Middle East.

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
