To: Defend Liberty

The fix is in. In exchange for more empty promises for spending cuts, the Republicans will cave on the debt ceiling and higher marginal tax rates. Plus they will agree to end the mortgage deduction for what is left of the middle class.

Meanwhile, the corporate statist elites will continue to fiddle while Rome is burning.

“The fix is in. In exchange for more empty promises for spending cuts”

Well phrased. There are either ‘spending cuts’ that happen now or “empty promises’ that happen later ... then they break the promises they made last year.

The only spending cuts are NOW spending cuts.
