HMM: “According to the source, among the people that Epstein would meet on his trips to the White House was George Mitchell, the former senator who at the time was Senate majority leader.” Doesn’t quite make sense (wouldn’t Mitchell hang out at Capitol?) https://t.co/DNuqbeczji

.@Benyt seems to think it wasn’t a legit issue if a) Hunter Biden was influence peddling, only if it could be shown that b) his father changed policy (so @WSJ was right to pooh pooh the laptop story). That seems wrong. (a)’s a legit if smaller story https://t.co/tk4XLGkfq1

Example of CIS honesty: Not clear this report from Bensman does their cause that much good. Would be easier to stay on simple message: ‘Clueless Biden’s letting everyone in!’ But they dont think that’s the truth. Bensman very reliable in my experience. https://t.co/4G9N66X3m0 https://t.co/vxDOnfB7mZ

SECRET SWERVE: Did Biden WH get a tacit backroom OK from loose-borders activists? (He can’t do them much good if Dems are booted from office in part due to bad border numbers.) https://t.co/4G9N66X3m0

I sense a pattern:
PAID LEAVE: Crazy hybrid of private/state/federal plans https://t.co/tVh1hcDcaF
PRE-K: No universality, just some more incentives to states.
CHILD CARE: Dramatically raises costs but does not provide subsidies that compensate

In other words, transformational! https://t.co/oWpRHqAmxN

Saving for the auto-delete: BRUENIG: “If your programs require a bunch of state cost-sharing and therefore state revenue and therefore in most cases state taxes on incomes below $400k, is that a breach of the tax promise. Does anyone care? Or is it just for show?”

.@CIS_org is the most effective (maybe only) think tank on the ‘control immigration’ side of the debate. They’re honest. They do a lot with a little. They’re facing a vast corporate-funded loose borders careerist migra-tocracy. https://t.co/k4RnVnfz2K

Could Republicans actually kill BBB if they hit the inflation message hard enough (and if they delay the vote until 2022 and inflation persists)? I’d always assumed Dems have to pass *something*, but … https://t.co/0CqyxOrswb

.@MattBruenig: “The legislation *does not* set up any pre-k services. It’s just weak monetary incentives for states to do so.” A big dose of what Charles Peters calls “Washington Make Believe.” Dems get to beat up on reluctant (mostly GOP) states but there is no pre-K guarantee. https://t.co/jpd9jJNIFy
