Note: This is not a sign of cognitive decline for Biden. It's nothing new. He was an off-the-cuff, as-needed BSer back in 1987, when a dense paragraph of falsehoods caught on video forced him to drop out of the presidential race. Standards were higher! https://t.co/tQYval6HT2 https://t.co/cay17bLsSo

When BIDEN spouts BS, which is apparently all the time, @CNN goes out of its way to helpfully provide explanations of what he really must have meant. Sometimes (see alleged $9B racehorse-owner loophole) that's not possible. "[I]t's very much unclear that Biden has any source." https://t.co/OiYBKIIxGJ

STEALTH: Pretty amazing that a potentially society-changing plan like refundable (no-strings) per-child payments isn't even covered as a "key component" of the relief bill. https://t.co/Ud6ukDwjP0

This is wildly unconvincing. The worry isn't a tide of poor people having 5 kids. The main worry is (as @swinshi suggests) single moms with 1 or 2 kids goimg from working full or part time to not working at all, with their families dropping out of the work culture. https://t.co/3dP9M5E3Uq

Well, when they time-limited AFDC and (in theory) required work, the percent of single mom high-school dropouts who were in the labor force jumped from about 43% to about 60%–a big increase. If you reverse the process labor participation likely to go back toward old levels. https://t.co/GngTXGtPV8

.@LATimes saying "Latinos and Black people have contracted the virus at a higher rate than white and Asian people" is a bit of PC distortion. Black rate is nowhere near–less than half–Latino rate. Blacks actually pretty close to whites (in cases/100K) https://t.co/BzIofcKOjO

$1.9 T? $600M? Democrats love it when the MSM focuses on the sheer size of the COVID relief bill because that means they aren't focusing on the society-changing policy bombs planted inside-like the Child UBI, a resurrection of hated no-strings AFDC welfare https://t.co/i7gvXpHEsB

It's a big government and awkward news often doesn't travel upward. A nasty press story or question very often makes the president confront something he only vaguely was aware of. That's often why aides leak to the press–to get POTUS attention no? https://t.co/Ysc23cjQer

Does Biden really mind if MSM still focuses on Trump — as long as he quietly keeps his agenda flowing through Congress. If press focused on amnesty, or the new child-allowance dole, it would be worse for Dems, no? Trump gives cover. https://t.co/5Aiwxlhd5x
