Senator Ed Markey (D-MA) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Katy Tur Reports” that President Joe Biden should use the 14th Amendment to address the debt ceiling if Republicans are not reasonable.
Markey said, “I would ask when you put up that poll that you also put up the identical poll on tax breaks for millionaires and billionaires and trillions of dollars that have been given to them over the last five years.”

It sure looks that way!
“Except for the huge difference that the gov’t can print the money that they use to pay.”
Will Biden be able to twist the Federal Reserve to donate a trillion or two?
I don’t know the answer. Do anybody here know?
I’ll take tyranny for $800, Alex.
Republicans are being reasonable Joe - Democrats can buy the votes of 47% of Americans but not 51%.
Congress can get an injunction blocking unlawful Treasury debt issue.
Amendment XIV only protects US debt authorized by law, not debt issued by unauthorized persons.
Remember there was talk that the Fed could mint a trillion dollar coin, and deposit it into the federal treasury?
If Idiot wants to pay the national debt, he’s welcome to do so with all the money his family has stolen or blackmailed or shook down
“Is he going to make us all slaves?”
Sincerely doubt that as the slaves have all been freed and then he would owe everyone reparations. The debt ceiling couldn’t be covered with any funds they or the US has in the country.

Pedo-Joe Biden is already violating the 14th amendment himself.
He is denying citizens equal protection of the law as guaranteed by the 14th amendment with his open border policy
that allows illegal aliens to endanger and harm citizens in many ways up to and including rape and murder.
That’s not the correct meaning of the 14th but you’re still right: Biden is violating the Amendment by allowing foreign nationals - who aren’t even incorporated by the Constitution - to violate laws with impunity.
That makes them above the law, and the citizenry beholden to it. Thus it is unequal treatment.
This has been labeled Anarcho-Tyranny, and is the current state of “law enforcement in the US.

Not to much for me to disagree with there hotrod.
Biden is just a term for DC 2023.
The New World Order is in full charge mode.
Say what you will, massive amounts of our nation’s tax
collections come from the wealthy.
Sure they avoid taxes all they can. Don’t we?
