    WHEN REALITY BITES: No, Sen. Murray, Tax Cuts Don't Boost the National Debt (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Is it my imagination, or are those moments becoming more frequent when some prominent national leader utters a statement so disconnected from facts and logic that all you can do is shake your head in disbelief? Consider this recent gem from Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.): "REMINDER: The single biggest driver of our national debt for the last 25 YEARS has been Republican-led tax cuts." This tweet appeared on X on August 21, not long after the Treasury Department announced the national debt had hit $

    No, We Can't Outgrow the National Debt, and We Don't Just Owe It to Ourselves (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    President Donald Trump tells the American people not to worry about the U.S. national debt reaching the unprecedented level of $40 trillion because “It’s been a problem for 35 years and what we have now that we’ve never had before… is we have tremendous growth — and the way you take care of debt is with growth."

    Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) let fly recently on X with his "outrage" at the "moral stain on this country" that "52 people have died in ICE detention" during President Donald Trump's second term in the White House.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    When the Treasury Department announced earlier this week that the U.S. national debt had reached $40 trillion, the major mainstream media (MSM) outlets reported it as a genuinely foreboding development. The New York Times, for example, felt compelled to tell readers the new debt total "topped $40 trillion for the first time on Wednesday, an ominous milestone for an economy that sits on a shaky fiscal foundation after decades of borrowing to pay for the rising costs of the military [and] social s

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt
