How much debt are they wanting to raise the cap to? Raise it to cover payroll, SS payments, interest payments and military.
Don’t raise it to cover the illegals or the socialist agenda that they’re trying to pass.
Hawley nailing Austin on the talking point which Austin just used, “No Americans have been left behind!”
He says oh yes they have!
He says Taliban didn’t attack American troops, but other unspecified conditions weren’t met. ((What other conditions)
He said he heard news reports. But if I heard news reports about something I said that wasn’t accurate, I’d look at the source, and if it wasn’t true I’d go on record saying so.
Wouldn’t you?
Sic him!
I’m sure Milley was given copies of all three books as he helped them slam Trump.
He’s lying!
đź‘Ťđź‘Ť
of course he is.

By nearly all accounts, Biden’s Afghanistan withdrawal was ill-conceived from the start, rushed in its execution, and uncoordinated with international partners.

Good for Inhofe for reading into the record Trumps four (4) conditions for leaving Afghanistan which Inhofe points out that it had been stated today that Trump had no conditions.
.@SenTomCotton: "Why haven't you resigned?"
Gen. Milley: "It would be an incredible act of political defiance for a commissioned officer to just resign because my advice is not taken." He also says, "My dad didn't get a choice to resign at Iwo Jima." pic.twitter.com/7D4w3KUR03— CSPAN (@cspan) September 28, 2021
This week, my office sent a letter to the Arizona Senate requesting supporting documents from the report released last week.
My office also asked Maricopa County to preserve all documents and data related to the 2020 election. https://t.co/XUN71YRjp1— Mark Brnovich (@GeneralBrnovich) September 28, 2021
The Arizona Senate’s report that was released on Friday raises some serious questions regarding the 2020 election.
Arizonans can be assured our office will conduct a thorough review of the information we receive.

Yellen just said that unrealized capital gains is income.
Let that sink in. Unrealized gains is income.— John Tuld (@BradHuston) September 28, 2021
They keep saying they want to tax unrealized gains. I've heard on all assets, including your home. It's insane.
If this happens, you will see a stock sell off that will make 1929 look like child's play.
Biden says, *not* under oath, no one advised him to keep a presence in Afghanistan.
The top generals say, under oath before Congress, they advised Biden to leave 2,500 troops.
Is Biden willing to contradict his top generals under oath?— Congressman Carlos A. Gimenez (@RepCarlos) September 28, 2021
Consumer Confidence Drops to 7-Month Low as Expectations Grow Dimmer
JOHN CARNEY 28 Sep 2021

U.S. consumer confidence declined for the third straight month in September, indicating that consumers have grown more cautious and are likely to pull back on spending.
The Conference Board said Tuesday that its consumer confidence index fell to a reading of 109.3 in September from 115.2 in August.
Economists had expected confidence to rise one point from the initially reported July level to 114.8. The previous month’s confidence level, previously reported at 113.8, was revised up to 115.2.
“Concerns about the state of the economy and short-term growth prospects deepened, while spending intentions for homes, autos, and major appliances all retreated again,” said Lynn Franco, Senior Director of Economic Indicators at the Conference Board.
September’s reading is the lowest level for the index since February.
Consumer views of both the present situation and expectations for the near-term future dimmed.
The share of consumers saying business conditions are good fell nine-tenths of a point to 19.3 percent. The share saying things are bad rose to 25.4 percent from 24.1 percent. The portion saying they expect improvement in business conditions six months from now fell to 21.5 percent from 23.4 percent. The share saying they expect business conditions to worsen rose to 17.6 from 17.4 percent.
Consumers are more positive about the labor market, reflecting the huge number of job openings. The share saying jobs are plentiful rose three-tenths of a percentage point to 55.9 percent. The share saying jobs are hard to find, however, also rose, from 11.2 percent to 13.4 percent. Asked about expectations for jobs six months from now, the share expecting more fell to 21.5 percent from 23.1 percent. The share expecting fewer jobs rose to 20.3 percent from 18 percent a month ago.
“Short-term inflation concerns eased somewhat, but remain elevated. Consumer confidence is still high by historical levels—enough to support further growth in the near-term—but the Index has now fallen 19.6 points from the recent peak of 128.9 reached in June. These back-to-back declines suggest consumers have grown more cautious and are likely to curtail spending going forward,” Franco said.

What do you think that would do to housing prices?
ya gotta love it, Sen Blumenthal, who lied about being in Viet Nam is now pontificating on how a withdrawl SHOULD be done and there should be one man assigned as the “CSAR” to manage extracting civilians and Americans. What a blithering idiot!
