Everything is easy, as long as you don’t have to consider reality.
A while back, I wrote about Biden’s Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors, Jared Bernstein, who literally couldn’t explain what money is, where it comes from, or why the federal government didn’t just print as much as it wants and not borrow any.
He had no idea and said so on camera. It was both glorious and frightening.
Barbara Lee, who retired from Congress as a very powerful Congresswoman, ran and lost in the race to replace Dianne Feinstein in the Senate, so she has settled herself in as the Mayor-elect of Oakland, California.
It’s appropriate enough. Oakland is what Donald Trump would call a “s**thole,” and deserves yet another Mayor who is full of it.
Why not $100? 🤔 https://t.co/QaaZAU8TIM

Like Bernstein, Lee understands economics…
