Speaker McCarthy isn’t getting a fund raising boom from me. He hasn’t done a single thing to improve our lives. I don’t expect that to happen for another two years. In the mean time, he’s going to have to hold the fiscal line. No new debt limit, real cuts in spending and no more wasting money on the corrupt Ukraine. Essentially those things can be accomplished because the House controls appropriations. I’ll be really surprised if McCarthy actually uses the power of the purse. Recent polling show a majority of Americans, including democrats and independents support spending cuts. I doubt if McCarthy can drop his RINO baggage to do the work the people want.

“No new debt limit”

Not realistic.

What is realistic is modest increases in the debt limit for modest cuts in spending (or other reforms, such as elimination of the EMTALA effective January 1, 2024, when new PPACA policies become effective), repeated as spending cut ideas occur.

And don’t try for a super deal. Lots of small deals.

Don’t put all the eggs in a single basket Biden might toss in a demented rage.
