They should. During trumps presidency, the debt was raised three times with zero adds or take always. The budget is where the changes should occur. Someday when the stop doing CR’s for budgets, we may actually see some progress.
The house has the Semate and Pres over a barrel. This is a must pass bill or the debt ceiling is not raised. If the house holds firm the rest have to cave or the debt ceiling does not get raised and the US defaults on its obligations.
Maybe they can promise McCarthy a book deal complete with compound in Hawaii and kickbacks from Ukraine if he is not already on the gravy train.
Yeah, plus the bank crash today.
The excrement is hitting the rotational cooling device.
Theater. Still increases the debt and spending.
I believe McCarthy is from Crapifornia.
Having a meeting is a big victory?
America is ruled by bullshit.
Chuck Schumer is not from Califonia, he’s from New York. That dumbass mistake makes the whole report not credible.
yep
there will be leaks to a compliant press
that make the pubbies look bad
If the House holds firm... key point in your reply. They won’t, they’ll cave to something and the debt ceiling will be raised.
the US defaulting on it’s debts is a long shot at best. Even if the ceiling isn’t raised it’ll get paid through cuts that will never happen so someone will cave.
We’re screwed. DC needs to assure investors the dollar is still Safe Haven. As long as they keep buying we’ll be ok. D’s should be made to suffer the consequences for suggesting the possibility of defaul. Treasury has money constantly coming in. Yelled just needs to check the flow.
