Biden and McCarthy reach a final deal to avoid US default and now must sell it to Con

[BidenPresident]

WASHINGTON (AP) — With days to spare before a potential first-ever government default, President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy reached final agreement Sunday on a deal to raise the nation’s debt ceiling and worked to ensure enough support in Congress to pass the measure in the coming week.

The Democratic president and Republican speaker spoke late in the day as negotiators rushed to draft and post the bill text for review, with compromises that neither the hard-right or left flank is likely to support. Instead, the leaders are working to gather backing from the political middle as Congress hurries toward votes before a June 5 deadline to avert a damaging federal default.

There are lots of rightys who will not vote for it. That means you think they are idiots. You would be correct. The Repubs vote for lots of idiots and gerrymander districts so badly that the idiots have no competition.

I don't think it should be constitutional to vote to pay our past debts. This makes no sense.

Seems to be that way. The GOP is a fascist party.
