7 1/2 minutes and this will give you a glimpse into the trash dumpster of leftism that Biden and his administration reach into to find their nominees.

There are many ways to look at the data. Jim's table does not refute my perfectly reasonable statement that red states are far more dependent on federal dollars.

For example, below, it is sorted by funding per dollar paid in taxes. I also highlighted the red states and blue states. I didn't pull my statement out of my ass, but you did misrepresent what I said.
