“About 30% of CNN viewers and 32% of CBS viewers said the national debt was only $5 trillion or less. For context, the U.S. national debt has not been that low since 1995, more than 25 years ago,” Mr. Haskins said.
Yes, well. As of Tuesday, the U.S. national debt was $28.1 trillion, according to the Treasury Department.

California Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom broke his silence Monday about a growing recall effort and launched his own campaign to defend his record.
Newsom played up the fact that his critics are attacking the state much in the way former President Donald Trump did while in office.
“I am not going to take this recall attempt lying down,” Newsom told the Los Angeles Times in a statement from his political campaign. “I’m going to fight because there’s too much at stake in this moment.”
Newsom announced his “Stop The Republican Recall” campaign Monday after recall sponsors said last week that they have collected the 2 million signatures required to kick off a special election. The recall effort has until Wednesday to submit their voter-signed petitions to the California Secretary of State’s office.
Californians could be asked to weather two elections in 2022 if an effort to recall Governor Gavin Newsom is successful.
