The view from Jared Bernstein, chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, on the debate over whether Biden should have done more to recognize Americans' economic pain:
“We always made a point of recognizing the profound struggle that families were facing with high prices. I don’t think you can find a presidential statement that ignored that reality"
“I’m sure we were far from perfect. But I’m also sure there’s not some secret combination of words that had we said them, the outcome would’ve been different.”
"Obviously, as we’ve seen in elections across the globe, inflation played a big outcome ... But any analysis that minimizes the lasting impact of the president’s investments in communities and on our broader economy are woefully incomplete.”
"I wouldn't be surprised if the president-elect isn't trumpeting these investments -- and our historically strong economy and falling inflation -- soon after he's sworn in"

The people in my autism parenting groups who are just figuring out what gutting the Department of Education is going to do to their kids, after they voted for Trump. Whew, chile. It’s a whole lotta, “They can’t do that, right?” Nah, bro. They can and they’re gonna.
As a reminder, these mass deportations will include legal immigrants who are American citizens, too. Trump aide Stephen Miller has promised to “turbocharge” a program to strip immigrants of their citizenship.
Check out this @Ipsos poll from last month. People who answered factual questions about inflation, crime, and immigration incorrectly were "more likely to opt for Trump," Ipsos said, while those who answered correctly preferred Harris. https://t.co/eHzrIb0TLi
This is important. In places where persuasion and other efforts were being made, Kamala did 3 points better than in places where it wasn’t happening. If the fundamentals and dissatisfaction w Biden hadn’t been so overwhelming, that three points could have been decisive.
Can’t imagine why … just kidding I can because I also wrote a report about how Ohio is falling behind that completely backs this up👇

BREAKING - Over 40 different fake bomb threats have now been called into Democratic-leaning polling places
And they're coming from RUSSIA
This should literally be THE story right now -- it is blatant and brazen election interference to steal the election for Trump
Voters continue to report confusion over Issue 1. As a good government matter, this is a disgrace. It's unprecedented for an Ohio Sec of State to abuse his official position to advocate against an issue on the ballot, and outrageous for the Ohio Supreme Court to let him do it.
I have been asked on two different networks and by two different male hosts today whether abortion rights are as important to women as the economy. I can't say it more clearly: reproductive freedom is economic freedom. They are intrinsically intwined, as every woman knows.
