Kevin McCarthy ‘Not at all’ Concerned About Losing Speakership – Claims 95% of the House GOP Supports the Deal During Conference Call
The Gateway Pundit ^ | May 29, 2023 | Jim Hoft

Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) claimed confidently that he is “not at all” concerned about losing his position as Speaker of the House despite growing opposition among conservative lawmakers regarding the recent debt limit deal reached between him and Joe Biden.

On Sunday, Kevin McCarthy and Joe Biden reached a final agreement on the debt limit to avert a government default.

“Good news,” Biden announced. “The agreement prevents the worst possible crisis, a default, for the first time in our nation’s history,” he said. “Takes the threat of a catastrophic default off the table.”

“This is a good strong bill that a majority of Republicans will vote for. You’re going to have Republicans and Democrats be able to move this to the president,” McCarthy said

“Why should he lose his speakership?
... he’s doing his master’s bidding.”

Plus the 95% McCarthy says will vote with him have received new commitments for their next insider trading deals, trips to billionaire private islands, corporate campaign contributions and post retirement board seats, paid speaking engagements, and consulting gigs.

But my question is...is this a real limit in growth? Or is it limiting the growth based on current projected growth? So if they plan to increase spending by 5% next year...now they can only go to 6%? If so that is a garbage deal.


So true. It’s like negotiations where the first party asks for the moon, knowing they won’t get it, the second party offers somehting less, and then claims they saved the difference....

your example is a good one. the base number that shows real limits is what counts, no the pie in the sky we held it to....

Just like so many people caved on installing McCarthy, McCarthy is going to cave to the communist left.

“We’re beyond the point of voting saving us.”

Yes, particularly when those we keep voting for have no intention of saving us. Hopefully conservatives by now realize that voting for “least bad” is still voting for bad.

The treatment of January 6 protestors proves conclusively when tyrants in the bureaucracy and the courts capriciously and arbitrarily deny defendants basic rights guaranteed by the Constitution, our Republican representatives will turn their backs and walk away.

Putting ones faith in scam artists always has the same result.

There is one party in Washington DC, they want your money, not your opinion.

Balanced Budget Amendment.
It’s the only way now.

A very well reasoned comment. We should wait for details instead of running around with our hair on fire.

“ We should wait for details instead of running around with our hair on fire.”

——————————

Really? If it’s so great, they had months to tell us exactly what it is. They’ve said nothing because it isn’t anything to brag about. If it were truly conservative (good for us), the dems would be putting out details.

None of that happened……..

It’s what they don’t say that tells you everything you need to know.

He claims support of 95% of House Republicans - and I’m certain that is 100% true.

Charitability is letting him fall into God’s hands rather than ours. We don’t have His patience, restraint, wisdom or mercy outside of Christ and I don’t want any of that on my account or that of a fellow patriot. I also don’t want not speaking against evil and allowing it to progress on my account. If God is “striking someone with lightening,” I don’t want to be too close by, especially He’s allowing them to do the deed themselves by shooting each other in the back. Their aim sucks with their darkened vision. Distancing...like avoiding Target, or being a target.
