Biden accused of defrauding the goverment

 DC Daily Journal:

In a scathing report, House Republicans have accused President Biden of engaging in “impeachable conduct,” claiming he “abused his office” and “defrauded the United States to enrich his family.”

The 292-page document, obtained by Fox News Digital, was compiled by the House Oversight Committee, House Judiciary Committee, and House Ways and Means Committee, who have been spearheading the impeachment inquiry into Biden.

The report pulls no punches, asserting that the evidence gathered so far points to Biden’s involvement in a “conspiracy to monetize his office of public trust to enrich his family.”

Republicans allege that the Biden family and their associates raked in tens of millions of dollars from foreign entities, leading these interests to believe that such payments would grant them access to President Biden and influence over him.

The committees claim that since 2014, the Biden family has received over $27 million from foreign individuals and entities.

Furthermore, they allege that Biden used his position as vice president to secure more than $8 million in loans from Democrat benefactors, loans which remain unpaid and are surrounded by a suspicious lack of documentation.

The report delves into Biden’s alleged participation in this conspiracy while serving as vice president, detailing instances where he attended dinners with his family’s foreign business partners and even took calls from them while being placed on speakerphone by his son, Hunter Biden.

Republicans argue that such actions demonstrate Biden’s active involvement in the scheme.
...

I think it is unlikely such an impeachment effort could be concluded before Biden leaves office in January.  The case they are trying to make would then have to be presented in court instead of Congress and that would likely put them facing a hostile jury in Washington DC.  While the case appears pretty sound the difficulty of prosecuting Biden looks difficult.

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
