"It will be tempting for Biden allies to dismiss Kelly’s reaction to the speech as a consequence of him being a swing-state senator who is up for reelection in 2022. " But of course that's exactly why they can't dismiss it. https://t.co/EGrQQTMiW9

REMEMBER OBAMA? Here's a TIME magazine cover story from 2010 on how Obama's big government stimulus bill (it seemed big at the time, anyway) was going to "change the country".. "quietly altering the way Americans work, move, innovate and plug in." We've had this hype before. https://t.co/5AlUJZPTGx

White House uses rhetoric of work ethic–"working families," work work, work, job, jobs, jobs. But the whole thrust of the Child Tax Credit is to cast aside the tired old Clintonian emphasis on work, now derided as "workism," and send cash to parents whether they work or not. https://t.co/P5KZm7rYx0

White House Fact Sheet: "[T]ax credits for working families have been shown to boost child academic and economic performance over time." But the credits also go to NON-WORKING families, welfare-style. That's the big selling point for the Left. https://t.co/3rQ8vz6Pkt

He's right about the need for the child tax credit to reward work, "a crucial part of stability and dignity" for families.There are ways to do that that don't just "send everyone a government check," as the Biden CTC does. https://t.co/7YmlbZet0d
