Rector also claims there is another loophole in the tax credit’s minimal work requirement (already weakened by a “2-yrs benefits for 1 year of work” provision)–a non-working single mom, say, “can transfer the work obligation to as many as two dozen other individuals.” https://t.co/EKn6gPqOAV

Robert Rector calculates that 91.5% of the new Child “Tax Credit” money (in the bill now before Senate) is NOT tax relief for working families. It’s direct government cash payments to people who owe no taxes. https://t.co/NntgF6JpaI

The loose-borders side in Biden WH has proven stronger than the pro-reset faction that’s leaking to @Axios has estimated. (Otherwise why tolerate Mayorkas?)

Note also there’s also no contradiction between Trump taking credit for junking Roe and supporting Roe-like relatively permissive abortion laws. The issue is whether it’s something that’s decided in the Constitution (via strained interpretations) or decided democratically. https://t.co/01oPhEIKTx
