The week in whoppers: Gov. Newsom confused again, Rep. Khanna says values outweigh fraud and more

Diary of disturbing disinformation and dangerous delusions

“The president . . . [is] engaging in an illegal, dangerous war.” —  California Gov. Gavin Newsom, Saturday

We say: 1) Team Trump complied with the War Powers Act, which only requires the prez to notify Congress within 48 hours of commencing military action.

2) Since that law passed, every president of both parties has deemed it unconstitutional.

No matter how many Democrats read from this script, action against Iran remains not only legal but necessary.

“Fraud matters and budgets matter, but what really matters in this country right now is values.” — Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), Wednesday

We say: What chutzpah: In a hearing about massive welfare and Medicaid fraud in Minnesota, Khanna offered Gov. Tim Walz high praise for trying to change the subject to neighborliness.

Guess the billions of dollars stolen while Walz twiddled his thumbs helped Somali fraudsters learn the meaning of “Minnesota Nice.”

“Here’s the good news, New Yorkers: The cameras are staying on.” — Gov. Hochul, Tuesday

We say: If it’s such good news, why did she dodge the real point: Her tolls continue — a tax for the “privilege” of driving into Midtown.

So much for “affordability”: The congestion tax pushes up prices even for those it doesn’t hit directly — all to hand the MTA an extra $500 million in revenue to flush straight down its toilet of waste and profligacy.

“On the day I left office, I handed Trump the strongest economy in the world.” — former President Joe Biden, Friday

We say: Sure, the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate hikes had pushed inflation back toward 3% by the time Biden left office, but that’s only after his feckless borrow-and-spend policies pushed prices up a full 20% on his watch during his term, even as wage growth stagnated and mortgage rates more than doubled.
