Hauling out big names for coming battle over restoring welfare …
(As Yglesias notes, Rubin has a tarnished rep to restore. No surer way to do that than by going Respectable/Left …) https://t.co/cIx7wMI0PQ

GOOD SIGN: Looks like they’re worried that “refundability” of the tax credit–the provision that sends checks to non-workers & turns the program into welfare–might be dropped by Congress after Manchin & McCarthy make it an issue. Must poll badly-or McCarthy wouldn’t bring it up. https://t.co/zuLWLEVVHQ

Biden did come close to saying this: “My Republican friends talk a lot about inflation, but if you want to talk about actually lowering the cost of living for people in this country, my plan does just that.”

Re Milley: Who was the “old friend” who had such influence over him (putting him on edge on Nov. 10 — months before the 1/6 riot — about Trump attempting to “overturn the government”)?

You’re right — it’s not worth bureaucratizing and unionizing and subsidizing at-home care unless you can spend enough to do it right. So don’t do it … https://t.co/LLU5YojDV2

Today’s paranoid thought: If Manchin wants to sell out his “pause” for a mess of pro-coal changes & needs a bargaining chip, he couldn’t have picked a better one than ‘work-testing’ the “child tax credit’–threatening Dem progressives’ most precious, secret goal (a new cash dole)
