Join Jim and Greg as they cautiously welcome news that China’s economy is struggling mightily as a result of the prolonged, Draconian COVID lockdowns. But what might China do to distract its people from those economic problems? They also mark two years since the fall of Kabul to the Taliban during Biden’s humiliating exit from Afghanistan – and point out all of the horrific restrictions reimposed on women and girls. Finally, they roll their eyes at the sheer incompetence of White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who butchered the names of both Hawaii senators and referred to Sen. Mazie Hirono as a “he.”

Poor Jim Geraghty apparently doesn’t know that Supplemental Security Income – SSI – is different than regular Social Security. SSI is, among other things, set up for people who didn’t work/contribute enough to fully qualify for regular Social Security or Social Security Disability (SSD).
He also seems to be unaware that Social Security is routinely paid to people with millions of dollars in assets.
Then again, Jim Geraghty is always wrong.
