The Full Story di Matthew Bishop

Note sull'episodio

In this episode, we fact-check Kamala Harris's interview with CNN's Dana Bash, scrutinizing her claims about the success of Bidenomics by examining USDA data on rising grocery prices during the Biden administration. We also break down her proposal for a $25,000 tax credit for first-time homebuyers, comparing it to the 2009 credit and exploring how it could worsen current market conditions. Additionally, we investigate Harris's past statements on fracking to assess her consistency on the issue, and we examine her assertions about defending the border by reviewing actual illegal crossing numbers. Finally, in "This Day in History," we reflect on Thurgood Marshall's confirmation as Supreme Court Justice and the impact he had on the court.
