Biden’s First Firing Takes on New Significance Amid China’s Propaganda

Yet that firing was symbolically and substantively significant.
Its significance has only grown two months into an administration that has conferred legitimacy on the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) narratives with respect to America’s purportedmoralfailings providing it a major propaganda coup and messaged still further weakness to our other adversaries.
The opening act in President Biden’s purge of Trump administration officials was the sacking of Michael Pack. (Full disclosure: Pack is an acquaintance of mine going back to his time as president of the Claremont Institute, where I am a fellow.)

The windfall elimination provision reduces the Social Security benefits of retired federal, state and local government employees who worked in private sector jobs in addition to a government job where Social Security is not intended as an element of their retirement income, like employees in the Civil Service Retirement System.
