Ex-Labor Secretary Robert Reich Exposes The Republican Art Of Distraction
Lee MoranUpdated – July 26, 2023
Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich in his latest video takes Republicans to task over five “totally made-up crises” he says they are using to distract Americans.
The GOP talking points seek to divert attention away from growing economic inequality, the climate crisis and right-wing efforts to undermine democracy, the former Clinton Cabinet secretary argued.
They are the conservative war on “woke,” attacks on the transgender community, freak-outs over critical race theory, slurring of welfare recipients and claims of out-of-control government spending.
All five “disguise what’s really going on,” Reich warned.
