Robert Hubbell was outraged by the editorial in The Washington Post attacking Kamala Harris’s economic plan. The editorial said, basically, that her plans to help the middle class made no sense. Consider the source, he says. In one post, he listed and praised Harris’s economic priorities, then went into detail, explaining how they would benefit the average American.
This is the heart of her economic plan:

- Subsidize down payments for first-time [home] buyers.
- Decrease the cost of prescription drugs.
Then he followed up by attacking the Washington Post editorial belittling her plan.

Oh, thank you, Jeff Bezos, owner of Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods, and one of the largest home delivery grocery services on the planet, thank you!

The Washington Post Editorial Board, which works for billionaire Jeff Bezos, thinks it’s a “gimmick” to give families with newborns a tax credit in the first year of the newborn’s life.
Billionaire Jeff Bezos thinks it’s a “gimmick” to expand the child-tax credit, the single most effective measure for lifting children out of poverty in three generations…
