Original Note:
The $1.7 trillion deficit reduction Biden claims credit for is entirely due to emergency Covid spending ending as planned. "Independent analysts say Biden’s own actions...had the overall effect of adding to current and projected future deficits, not reducing those deficits." https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/07/politics/fact-check-president-biden-state-of-the-union/index.html
