    Default McConnell says Repukes won't raise debt ceiling



    "Three times – during the administration of the former president – three times House Democrats cooperated in raising the debt ceiling," Jeffries said.
    "Now all of a sudden, they want to jam up the American people and the American economy and our full faith and credit, because they're playing politics?" Jeffries said of Republicans in the Senate.
    "Senate Republicans should be hearing from their friends in the big banks and big business, as to how catastrophic a default on our debt would be for industry, for commerce, for the economy and most importantly for the American people," Jeffries added.

    every change of power we deal with the same bullshit about the debt ceiling......all the while we sit here divided about who is and isn't fiscally wary............why are you morons destroying our country?
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    If this isn’t a sign the Trumpublicans want to crash and burn America, I don’t know what is.

    I would actually just raise it if I was mcconnel. Biden is handling like 3++ active criseses usually of his own making. Theres really no need to add another one and have them blame the GOP for everything. Its best that the entire country is focused on the bumbling of Biden.

    I mean you can always just do this down the road after a year or two when Biden is not in full meltdown mode.

    Why do Republicunts keep lowering the amount of revenue, and then raising the debt?

    Better question would be which ones did he create, or did he inherit the 3++ crises?

    Wrong. These are not part of the general budget and not subject to the debt ceiling.

    does anyone have a link to McConnell saying that he won't raise the debt ceiling.........
