Summary
On Thursday, President Joe Biden released a $6.8 trillion budget plan for 2024 that he says will cut deficits by $2.9 trillion over the next decade, increase military funding, raise taxes on the wealthy and corporations, and pay for Medicare and Social Security without any major cuts or reforms to the programs. While the budget increases the military’s budget, it represents a decline in military spending as a share of the overall U.S. economy in the next decade. Plus, a reader asks why I never praise Donald Trump (spoiler: I do).

| 0:44.8 | Good morning, good afternoon and good evening and welcome to the Tangle podcast, a place we get views from across the political spectrum, some independent thinking without all that hysterical nonsense you find everywhere else. |
| 1:01.8 | I'm your host, Isaac Saul, and on today's episode, we're going to be talking about President Biden's new budget proposal, which was released last week. |
| 1:10.6 | Before we do, though, I want to jump in today, |
| 1:12.7 | unfortunately, with a quick correction. In Thursday's edition of the podcast, where we covered the |
| 1:18.8 | new January 6 footage released by Tucker Carlson, we erroneously referred to Michael Phanone |

| 1:28.8 | D.C. Metropolitan Police Department, whose officers vastly outnumbered the Capitol |
| 1:33.5 | Police on the day of the riots. Similarly, the figure that we described as the number of |
| 1:38.6 | Capitol Police assaulted was actually the total number of officers assaulted, nearly half of whom were MPD. |
| 1:46.3 | This is our 78th correction entangles 189 week history and our first correction since February 9th. |
| 1:53.6 | I tracked corrections and place them at the top of the podcast in an effort to maximize transparency with our listeners. |
| 1:59.9 | All right, with that unfortunate correction out of the way, |
