This is disinformation.

Search: California default

You'll find the usual far right disinformaiton websites with the exact same disinformation: Drudge, Epoch "News", Hot Air, etc

They're wrong because California has not yet defaulted. It could happen, but that depends on the US government's next steps with the debt ceiling.

If you're curious, read: https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article275027116.html

It might help to know that $10 trillion of the US debt was developed with tax cuts and other handouts to the 1% during COVID, which was made worse by Trump's anti-vax language and that debt was in place when Biden took office. Now the GOP want to take more of your money, from Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, welfare, unemployment, etc. Returning to earlier tax levels and restricting offshore accounts would raise all the necessary money.

Trump's anti-vax language

For a man that created the program and told people to get vaccinated, I'm always confused when people refer to Trump as being anti-vax.

You should remember very well what he was saying about lockdowns and vaccines early in the Pandemic, which helped spread the virus. Among his 44,000 lies while in office, he also called COVID a "hoax' and recommended drinking bleach, and taking ivermectin, was generally pushing anti-vax disinformation in the first two months of the Pandemic. There is A LOT of informaiton on this online.

recommended drinking bleach

He never said this. He said "disinfectant," when he was obviously searching for the word "anti-viral," and everyone starting saying he was telling people to inject bleach.

what he was saying about lockdowns

The CDC and WHO recommended against "quarantining of the healthy" in their own pandemic plans that were in effect at the time. Speaking out against them shouldn't have been controversial.

You're right - injecting disinfectant, or 'light' : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zicGxU5MfwE

This is misinformation - sending the wrong message about the necessary approaches.

It made the top 7 dumbest comments list, here.

Quarantine and lockdowns were recommended and they happened.

The Great Depression of the 21st century is gathering steam.

“ Everywhere you look people are in severe pain, but this is only just the beginning. And I would encourage you not to ever look down on those that have had a run of bad fortune, because it could happen to you too.”

Nig nogs gonna nig nog…” So, the equivocal [sic] number from the 1860s for 40 acres to today is $200 million for each and every African-American.' (snip)

one woman said: '$1.2million is nowhere near enough. It should be starting at least $5million like San Francisco.

'We want direct cash payments just like how the stimulus [checks] were sent out. It's our inheritance, and we can handle it.'

And another resident added: 'This million dollars we're hearing on the news is just inadequate and a further injustice if that's what this task force is going to recommend for Black Americans for 400-plus years and continuing of slavery and injustice that we have been forced to endure.

'To even throw a million dollars at us is just an injustice.'

And Elaine Brown, former Black Panther Party chairwoman, urged people to express their frustrations through demonstrations.”

But let's go after all the students who are late on their excessive student loan interest.

Biden promised them $ 10,000 USD each but instead is bailing out banks for doing stupid stuff like giving out risky loans for houses to poor people and making the middle-class pay for the bailouts.

I heard somewhere that his plan was blocked by the republicans in congress because they didn't want the money going toward educated voters?
