Gullibility: “according to Biden family members and business associates, Hunter and his father never had joint bank accounts or direct access to each others’ money.” But Mr Schwerin had access to both accounts & occasionally paid Joe’s bills w/ Hunter’s $. How’s this exculpatory? https://t.co/pdLMMGa4KI

Well the Earned Income Tax Credit is v-susceptible to fraud-unlike other tax provisions it pays you more if you declare more income. If you want the (highly effective) EITC, you gotta audit. Or else everyone says they made $10K income & it turns into a GAI https://t.co/ABKwyMSf8H

Right. The point is that @CBS ignored the intense GOP concern about the border in order to push their preferred angle, ‘Crazy MAGA Republicans and their partisan revenge investigations.’ Expect more of the same from MSM for next 2 years. https://t.co/DbpSQvFGyF

Good to see Biden-and Brownstein-abandoning a fixation on the “Coalition of the Ascendant” to focus on wages for non-college workers.
