WG Economy

The Most Serious Threat To The Country

WG Economy | David Winston

April 19, 2023

The debt limit standoff between the White House and Republicans is not only
over philosophies on government spending but also about different views on
the most serious threats to the country. Given the nation's escalating
debt, Republicans are looking for areas to cut, particularly in Democratic
spending from the last two years that they say has made inflation worse.
Democrats want to increase spending on what they define as public
investment to address the "climate crisis," with last year's Inflation
Reduction Act being described as "the most significant climate legislation
in US history." [4]WG Economy, April 19, 2023.pdf

RIPON, Wis. -- Officials in Ripon, Wisconsin, have moved the building where
the Republican Party is said to have been founded across town to boost
visibility as conservatives descend on the state for the GOP national
convention next year.

Workers moved the Little White Schoolhouse to a different location on
Monday, WLUK-TV reported.

The Ripon Chamber of Commerce owns the building. The chamber's executive
director, Mandy Kimes, told the television station the new location will
increase visibility and access as visitors arrive in the state for the GOP
national convention in Milwaukee next summer. Ripon is about 85 miles (136
kilometers) northwest of Milwaukee. [5]Read more

Republicans line up against replacing Feinstein on critical committee

It would take at least 10 GOP votes to let Democrats replace the ailing
Californian on the pivotal Judiciary panel - a mark that's effectively out
of reach.

April 17, 2023

Senate Republicans are preparing to stop a temporary replacement for the
ailing Dianne Feinstein on the Judiciary Committee this week, a move with
significant ramifications for Democrats' ability to confirm federal judges.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Monday afternoon that he wants to
quickly sub in another senator for Feinstein (D-Calif.), whose absence from
the Judiciary panel is hampering Democrats' ability to easily confirm more
of President Joe Biden's nominees to the federal bench. But just one
Republican can object to executing that move quickly, and the GOP
opposition is overflowing. [6]Read more

WG Discussion Points

Persistent Inflation And The Return Of High Gas Prices

WG Discussion Points | David Winston

April 14, 2023

This week's new inflation report showed some slowing of the Consumer Price
Index measuring inflation (5% year over year) which the White House is
describing as "breathing room." But as Democratic economist Jason Furman
pointed out, inflation is proving to be "stubbornly persistent," a
phenomenon that has many economists perplexed.

Gas prices have been the aspect of inflation that the Biden administration
has claimed as a success, with some declines in price last fall. From the
recent survey for Winning the Issues (March 1-3), voters are inclined to
believe the President's State of the Union statement that gas prices are
down over $1.50 from their peak (47-39 believe-do not believe), but not
that gas prices are comparable to what they were when President Biden took
office (32-52 believe-do not believe). [7]WG Discussion Points, April 14,
