So this outrageous @PolitiFact hack job arguing Biden didn't mean it when he told a voter (ON VIDEO) "your taxes are going to be raised" has been used to censor ads on Facebook.

End the fact-check industry. It's absolute partisan garbage doing lasting damage to journalism.
I've started cataloguing the most outrageous fact-check gaslighting in one place.

From "Biden didn't mean it" to "John James was completely accurate.. but mostly false" on Peters attendance, to "Biden didn't mean the China travel ban was xenophobic"

Kamala has made her closing argument “Donald Trump is a fascist.”

Not jobs, not the economy, not security.

But while she’s relying on media reports and some misrepresentations of Trump quotes, Kamala Harris has actually ACTED more like a fascist than Donald Trump.

#THREAD Image
She’s committed to ending the filibuster (a tool to preserve the power of the minority) so she can take over the Supreme Court via court-packing - because she doesn’t agree with conservative majority.

A favorite tool of dictators throughout history.

She has promised to force people to violate their faith to perform abortions without limits - suggesting that abortion on demand is a more important right than religious liberty

You probably missed the Friday news dump.

Biden’s final EV rules make it easier for China to get billions in Biden’s EV tax credits - with Biden acknowledging that the U.S. supply chain can’t meet the timeline for his green transition.

Dems are feigning outrage - “this will allow China to infiltrate the American auto supply chain, at American taxpayers’ expense.”

The problem? Every Democrat voted for this with the Inflation Reduction Act.

Good luck defending this @SenBobCasey @SenatorTester @SenSherrodBrown Image
@SenBobCasey @SenatorTester @SenSherrodBrown Biden is exempting graphite from EV sourcing rules (77.5% comes from China) saying it’s “impracticable to trace.”

But these same people argue oil and gas companies should pay cities for storm damage from “global climate change” - as if that’s traceable.

One thing that fascinates me about @EvanMcMullin is he was so eager knee-jerk oppose anything Trump did that he ended up taking a lot of stupid positions.

But opposing killing Soleimani as he was planning to kill Americans was a required position for MSNBC talking heads. #utpol
Mike Lee worked hard for a strong conservative Supreme Court majority.

@EvanMcMullin joined conspiracy theorists like Michael Avenatti to smear them.

Go back 6 years - you won’t find a conspiracy theory McMuffin didn’t jump on so he could get booked on TV.

#utdebates #utpol ImageImage
Of COURSE @EvanMcMullin went all in on the Steele Dossier.

Why would anyone believe anything this snake oil salesman had to say about anything? #utpol #utdebates

5 reasons student loan bailout is bad:

1⃣Inflation
2⃣Regressive - taxing the poor to buy high-income earners grad degrees
3⃣Dark Brandon needs pandemic relief for grad degree holders?
4⃣Unfair to people chose cheaper options/military service to pay
5⃣ Should be done by Congress
Will be hilarious that just a week after Democrats (and their media allies) touted the "deficit reduction" in the "Inflation Reduction Act" they're about to cancel it all out to finance rich kids grad degrees in underwater basket weaving.

CC: @Sen_JoeManchin
.@BudgetHawks on impact on inflation:

"$10,000 of debt cancellation could add up to 15 basis points up front and create additional inflationary pressure over time."

Pretty incredible to write this entire piece without the context that the right's dark money efforts are a tiny fraction of the scale of the left.

Left wing dark money is so influential that the top expert CNN quoted in this piece .. is a left-wing dark money operative.
This section is phenomenal.

Robert Maguire says "we've never seen a group of this magnitude before."

Robert Maguire works for CREW - funded by Soros's Open Society Foundation - which has assets estimated at $3.7 BILLION.

Did CNN not Google Maguire or his org?
Also in that section - CNN refers to Arabella Advisors, Soros, and Hansjorg Wyss as "managing several smaller dark money groups."

SMALLER? According to the NYT Arabella spent more than a BILLION DOLLARS in the 2020 cycle alone.

Again RESEARCH HELPS.

There's about 20 different ways the Biden administration made this happen.
Let's do this.

1) Cancelling Keystone.

Obama admin estimated Keystone would create 43K jobs and generate $4.3B in economic activity. It moved 830K barres of crude a day in the safest way possible. Now its moved by train/truck, slower and more expensive.

foxnews.com/politics/biden…
2) Halting oil and gas leases on federal land.

In 2019 fed leases made up for 22% of US oil and 12% of natural gas production. The pause didn't last, but it hurt jobs and began the slow rise of energy costs they're now trying to make up for.
