Can’t really blame McCarthy....

We knew all along he would do this.

So did all of our RINO republican representatives.

No... we can’t blame McCarthy.

It’s everyone who voted for him as speaker.

That’s who to blame.

The Media is Celebrating Kevin McCarthy.


Bloomberg wrote he has proved he’s an elite Leader in uniting with Joe Biden, and bringing home the deal for Biden despite the Neanderthals in his party. He sacrificed for the Country.


There is no doubt about his Leadership abilities any longer.

I think this article is wrong on the 2022 levels.

McCarthy said on TV that he’s letting Govt grow, but slowing it down.

So we are still going to waste all that money on an army of 87,000 IRS agents busting my balls for the governments cut of that $600 in cash I put into my checking account so the DemoMarxists will have more money to spend on illegals and middle eastern terror groups. McRINO couldn’t even get rid of that!! How the hell can you NOT make a deal with a dementia patient???

Just take a look at the tax rates of 1978 Britain:

below £750 - rate of 25 per cent,

otherwise below £7,000 - basic rate of 34 per cent

The next £1,000 40 per cent.
The next £1,000 45 per cent.
The next £1,000 50 per cent.
The next £1,500 55 per cent.
The next £1,500 60 per cent.
The next £2,000 65 per cent.
The next £2,500 70 per cent.
The next £5,500 75 per cent.
The remainder 83 per cent.

https://api.parliament.uk/historic-hansard/commons/1978/apr/17/8-income-tax-charges-and-rates-for-1978

That £7,000 is about $100,000 in 2023 money. The 55% bracket kicked in at about $140,000 in 2023 money.

There’s a reason why Joe wants ~80,000 more IRS people, the tax rates are going to go so high that millions of Americans will try to illegally avoid getting fleeced.

Here’s the line you’re supposed to believe.

Those agents and investigators are only going after people with Net Worth’s of $4 to $12 Million

Why have $600 Reporting mandates then?

Which is just a made up Democrat talking point. There are no restrictions and if everything else stays the same, they’ll be no oversight because they don’t recognize Congress has that function (ask Chris Wray).

Nancy has a $50,000 Refrigerator and your bank is supposed to report $600 payments from EBay?

“there doesn’t appear to be a dollar limit to the debt ceiling increase”

Fannie Mae [share price 46 cents apparently], Freddie Mac and the FDIC may together need up to a trillion dollars to bail them out.

McCarthy needs to be a ‘very good’ RINO because the Democratic Party in California has:

few viable political opponents

the largest state party funding base in the US.

I’ll say it again: why even go through the charade of setting a “debt ceiling” that can always be raised, when the problem is profligate spending? Why do voters consistently vote for politicians that just plain suck?

Really, cause it seems that Trump’s pick McCarthy just gave us an epic loss. I
He never should have fired Bannon, and hired Globalist, after Globalist.

McCarthy’s days as speaker are likely numbered.
