I concede the CHIPS Act–funding a national industrial policy–might be a big deal if it is successful and replicated. Both parties are headed in that direction, no?

Wait. Biden was a “transformative” president because of [running down the list] an expensive “refundable tax credit” that wasn’t very popular and was allowed to expire after a year … Infrastructure spending (admittedly “not particularly novel”)… https://t.co/D5NmoAvhnG

1. She wasn’t actually in charge of anything.
2. She doesn’t actually believe what she says.
It’s worked before!

Some Vance allies appear to have foolishly started defending, not just child tax credits but specifically Biden’s temporary 2021 expansion of the tax credit into a huge no-work dole. Manchin was right to block making Biden’s expansion permanent. https://t.co/uYbVh0pOED
