Biden-Harris and the Chicoms

 DC Daily Journal:

...

... the Kamala Harris campaign has been caught in an illegal quid-pro-quo campaign scheme.

In late 2022, the Biden-Harris administration allocated a significant subsidy to BYD Americas, a company with ties to China, under the Clean School Bus program. Specifically, BYD Americas received $395,000 in October 2022, as revealed by documents from the Environmental Protection Agency.

Just about a year later, on November 14, 2023, Ke Li, the president of BYD Americas, contributed tens of thousands of dollars to support President Joe Biden’s reelection efforts. Notably, these funds were later redirected to Vice President Kamala Harris after Biden exited the race, as indicated by campaign finance disclosures.

The Biden-Harris administration has positioned its electric vehicle initiatives as essential for revitalizing American manufacturing while also addressing the rising economic influence of China. However, a closer look suggests that many of these subsidies may inadvertently benefit Chinese firms, with taxpayer dollars flowing to companies like BYD.

Li’s financial support included a notable $33,400 donation to the Biden Victory Fund, which has since been rebranded as the Harris Victory Fund. Additionally, she made two contributions of $3,300 each to the Biden campaign, now the Harris campaign, all on the same day.
...

BYD, the parent company of BYD Americas, is also linked to China’s Belt and Road Initiative, a broad infrastructure project aimed at enhancing China’s global influence, as noted by the Council on Foreign Relations. Additionally, the company benefits from subsidies provided by the Chinese government.
...

It is hard to believe that anyone would think these people have the best interests of the US at heart.  What was the EPA thinking when it went along with these expenditures?  The donations to Biden and Harris suggest China believes they are more supportive of the Chicoms.

Also, the belief that EVs are the future of US transportation is questionable.  There continues to be a limited market for EVs that is shrinking.

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
