"Revenues" means "taxes" to Democrats.

"Revenues" means "revenues" to Republicans. It does not have to mean taxes.

Here's just one example: if oil companies lease more federal lands for drilling, that's new revenues but it is not taxes.

No that would not be “new” revenues. If there was a new fee on oil drilling or an increase in lease rates then that would be new revenues though.

I don’t want any new revenues of any kind, they would just spend them. Debt would NOT be reduced.

There already are plenty of revenues. CUT SPENDING!
