benefited a lot. the numbers show kids who don t grow up in poverty are doing better in school, more likely to have graduations and go to college and they have better health. none of this is an accident. indeed, this is an important policy story as we wrap up the year, and widen s spending has been driving it. that included direct payments to most american households with children through a child tax credit. an increase in government aid prompted by the pandemic. the times reports it pushes americans in poverty to the lowest level on record. now, if that sounds like a good thing a lot of politicians say they want prosperity well, it turned out to be partisan. biden did reach across the aisle. not a single republican voted for that. now we see a clash because the last checks of that program i told you is doing so much, they go out to today. some call it a child tax credit. others look at it as what has been a stimmy era.
day number one, you got a stimmy check. we did that. joe manchin, you re not getting re-elected. three, do not mention the republican party unless you mention the section on january 6th. that s it. message consistency. the republicans wake up every single day and say space lasers and pedophiles and the big lie. they have message consistency. the at democrats need to do the same thing. i don t know why chuck schumer is not out there more y pelosi is not out there more. and frankly after the failed vote for the january 6th commission, they should immediately be talking about putting another special commission together to keep the focus on the fact that the republicans are the party of insurrection violence and three dead police officers. mark mckinnon, there s a lot there to react to. about chuck schumer i ve heard the same charge that was

Wondering where your federal stimulus check is? At multiple banks, the first batch of economic impact payments are set to hit bank accounts on Wednesday.
For many Americans, the checks will be for $1,400 per person.
The banks stressed that these checks are the first ones being sent by the federal government, and not everyone will see their payment on Wednesday.

A quadruple homicide occurred in Indianapolis after the father of Jeanettrius Moore s youngest child, Malik Halfacre, walked into Moore s home and demanded half of her stimulus + tax money.
Moore denied Halfacre s request and tried to compromise by offering him $450, but that s when her brother stepped in to defend her.
Angry from being told no Halfacre pulled out a gun & opened fire on everyone in the house killing Moore s mother, brother, cousin & 7 yr old daughter. Jeanettrius was hit, but she was able to escape with her life & youngest child.
Police arrived on the scene hours later & found Halfacre hiding in the attic! He has been arrested and charged with the murders. RIP to all who lost their lives.
