42. you're diverting from the event

...likely because you know the premise of your post is false and indefensible.

You wouldn't know about this event if Seder hadn't plucked it out and promoted it.

You not only took his bait here, but you helped misrepresent a DEMOCRATIC initiative passed during the Biden administration which Sen. Schumer helped initiate and enact into law, enabling this groundbreaking that will create over 10k jobs for his state,

Lutnick crashed the event and Schumer set him straight about the source of the funding and who was actually responsible, but you either didn't bother to look, or didn't care about the Democratic initiative that created jobs for New Yorkers and other states; opting instead to glom onto this false attack on the Dem leader.

You didn't debunk anything. You provided cover for Seder who found and posted this on his podcast. You furthered his lie that Sen. Schumer had covered for Lutnick.

You diverted from and was almost successful in ignoring the DEMOCRATIC initiative, the CHIPS and Science Act that made the event possible.

You, Seder, and the fool who made the video provided cover for Lutnick crashing the event, and failed to even credit Pres. Biden, much less Sen. Schumer for helping make all of that job creating commerce possible.
