Why is he line item vetoing things from his own budget proposal?
Because he does not know what “he” proposed. Most likely “his people” proposed things he doesn’t know and doesn’t understand, now he line-items the same items his administration proposed, hoping his supporters are too low-information to notice that his administration has again slapped its own face.

He’s on a 45 day losing streak, maybe he figures if he gets in a fight with himself he can’t lose.

The only real loss would be Georgia, the rest were easily predicted and baked into every objective analysis. He’s there on the 4th for a rally. I think you will have earned crowing rights if the Senate goes Democrat.

“Just to show you how bad this bill is, there’s more money in this to bail out union pension funds than all the money combined for vaccine distribution and testing,” Senator Bill Hagerty, a Tennessee Republican, said last week.

Somewhere I read that each person who gets $1400 ends up owing $5700 (by adding to the national debt).

That’s wrong, of course.
A LOT of the people getting $1400 per check will never pay a penny in income tax and will continue to receive money back in earned income.

Hypothetically, a non-US citizen who left the country when he or she retired wouldn't owe a brass farthing.
