About Depressing Teen Social Media and Trusting The Biden Administration May 25, 2023

Show notes

On this episode of We’re Not Wrong, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy's recent advisory underscores the deep-rooted concern over the mental health effects of excessive social media use among American youth. The advisory revealed a correlation between intensive usage and heightened mental health issues, with troubling data from Meta indicating specific dangers for teenage girls. In response, a call to action has been made to tech companies, policymakers, and parents to foster safer online environments. Amidst these developments, Montana's ban of TikTok raises questions. Is this a prelude to federal regulation?

AND... As the debt ceiling deadline nears, skepticism grows among Republican representatives, led by figures like Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) and Rep. Ralph Norman (R-S.C.), who suspect that the June 1st deadline set by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen may be a pressure tactic to force a debt limit increase. These concerns aren't confined to the right-wing faction of the party, with House Financial Services Committee Chairman, Patrick McHenry (R-N.C.), also expressing doubt about the urgency of the deadline and the White House's negotiation efforts. McHenry has called for a more detailed justification for the June 1st deadline, raising questions about its legitimacy.

About The Border and The Debt Ceiling May 11, 2023

Show notes

This Thursday, Title 42 will expire. What is Title 42? Title 42 is a section of the United States health law that has been used during the COVID-19 pandemic to quickly expel migrants at the border, including those seeking asylum, in an effort to prevent the spread of the virus. The policy was initially put in place under the Trump administration and has been continued under the Biden administration.

The Biden administration is cautiously considering the possibility of using the 14th Amendment as a mechanism to avoid breaching the debt ceiling, a situation that could lead to a financial crisis. This Amendment contains language stating that the public debt "shall not be questioned," which could potentially be interpreted to allow the President to continue issuing debt unilaterally. However, there are concerns about the legal standing of this approach and the potential financial and political repercussions it could bring. While Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has warned that the U.S. could breach the debt limit by early June, leading to severe economic consequences, she also stated that using the 14th Amendment could trigger a constitutional crisis. President Biden himself has expressed hesitance about this option, indicating he hasn't decided on using it yet.
