Biden Economy Tour 2.0

WG Economy | David Winston

March 29, 2023

The US economy has been in chaos over the past month, with the fallout of
Silicon Valley Bank, contagion to other financial institutions, persistent
inflation, and the Fed in a dilemma about how to proceed. Last Sunday's
Bloomberg email led with "Hope you've had a great weekend. There weren't
any major bank failures..." demonstrating how volatile the day-to-day
situation has become. In response to the crisis, the White House has begun
a 3-week economic tour to "barnstorm [the] country to highlight how Biden's
economic agenda is growing the economy from the middle-out and bottom-up,
not top down." [1]WG Economy, March 29, 2023.pdf

Republicans want to cut $1 trillion in spending - and instead of
introducing 1 bill, they've introduced 500 to do just that

Business Insider | Ayelet Sheffey and Juliana Kaplan

Why have one bill laying out your spending cuts when you can have 500? It's
a question that the GOP is now asking, as their plans to make sweeping cuts
finally come into focus.

Republican lawmakers just made their latest move in the ongoing drama to
raise the debt ceiling and cut spending. Republicans and Democrats have
been going back and forth for months over how to keep the US from
defaulting on its debt - something that could happen as soon as July - and
after President Joe Biden released his budget, he's been calling on GOP
lawmakers to do the same and detail what spending they want to cut in a
potential debt ceiling deal.

Now, Republicans have some ideas - or rather, over 500 proposed bills for
limiting funding to a slew of federal government programs and agencies.

Weaponization hearing devolves into chaos as Democrat shouts at Republicans
over witness testimony

'I wanna strike it,' Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass., said of testimony
provided Thursday by Republicans

A House Weaponization Subcommittee hearing went off the rails Thursday as
one Democratic congressman shouted at Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, over his
party's ability to "cross-examine" testimony provided by prominent
Republicans.

The hearing - held to examine the Biden administration's alleged collusion
with Big Tech to violate First Amendment rights - featured testimony from
Louisana Attorney General Jeff Landry; Sen. Eric Schmitt, formerly
Missouri's attorney general; and the former Missouri deputy attorney
general for special litigation, D. John Sauer.

The witnesses were provided the opportunity to discuss their federal
government censorship lawsuit, Louisiana and Missouri v. Biden et al.,
which they filed in May 2022 and described as "the most important free
speech lawsuit of this generation."

Massachusetts Democrat Rep. Stephen Lynch was incensed when the witnesses
left after giving their initial statements. "At least if we're not gonna
have the ability to cross-examine, I would move that we strike the
testimony provided by Sen. Schmitt and Attorney General Landry," Lynch told
Jordan. [3]Read more
